at all these babies who sleep through - still feeding up to 3 times a night here though at least the feeds are quick.

Was at a wedding saturday, just me and the kids as dh working so am quite proud of myself as it was in the Highlands and quite a drive away. Dd was really good and lots of people were keen to hold ds for me, leaving me free to have some champagne . Had a dreadful night's sleep at the B&B as dd ended up in bed with me and ds so it was like being wedged between a washing machine on spin as dd did laps of the bed and a hoover sucking at me at regular intervals......

Nice and sunny here so might go to the park. Have a good day everyone.

Morning all - dippy - I tried to email you but it came back - had captaindippy at yahoo dot co dot uk???

We have baby massage at 10.30 - so will be off to that soon.

I skipped the food for ernie yesterday to see what would happen and he woke up three times - so offered him some more this morning and he ate the whole bowl again and was sat with his mouth open waiting for more - so topped him up with a feed.

Haven't been brave about you know what yet!

normabutty · 09/07/2007 09:47

Morning all,

My nappy trial pack from the council finally came today.

Dippy - I got the second doidy cup today. Thank you so much.

I'm meant to be cleaning in prep for Ellie visiting!

octo · 09/07/2007 09:50

morning norma - you must have loads of nappies now! Hows it going?

Eddas · 09/07/2007 09:52

PMSL at those shoes ange and at the desciption liath, dd is like that too, she NEVER sleeps with me!!

Have only read today's posts(plus the shoes, couldn't miss seeing what that was!)

Had a bbq with my little bro and big sis on sat(I warned him he may have some random pokes on facebook) was really nice to see them as we don't get together much since sis is always doing something. She's now booked up til October and was already thinking about what she's doing over christmas, I think that is in an attempt to avoid the step mother We're not going there this yera either, I cannot being doing with it. They will get an invite here instead then at least G won't get told she can't wear her tap shoes(those plastic shoes kids wear for dressing up) apparently they are too noisy

On sunday we had a christening which was lovely.

H has sunburn on his face Things is he was in the shade the entire time but I now feel like such a BAD MOTHER. It's not too bad, he just looks hot but still doesn't look good. And he's got his 2nd jabs today(snap Ange!) so i'm just hoping the nurse doesn't mention it.

So make sure you cover the babies up or slap sun cream on them even if they're in the shade ladies

octo · 09/07/2007 09:55

I agree Eddas - kids burn so easily and really shouldn't have a tan! Went to a baby music group on friday and there was a 10 month old with a tan and pierced ears

CaptainDippy · 09/07/2007 09:58

DD's 2 & 3 in bed, DD1 watching charlie & Lola - friend coming over in a mo, so just whizzing by ......

Octo - my email is captain_dippy "at" yahoo "dot" co "dot" uk

You missed out the _ between Captain and Dippy! Go on ..... be brave ...... ............

Glad you had a nice time away at the Wedding Liath - shame about the bad night though.

Would LOVE to see more pics ange - when did you get married? we're coming up for our 5th Anniversary .....

Can't remember anything else, except that it was lovely to "see" Doobypoo!! Hello!!

Eddas · 09/07/2007 10:00

octo, at least mine was by accident and I feel so bad. His little arms and legs are really white, think it makes hs face look even worse. I don't actually think it's that bad BUT it is bad enough.

I guess the thing is to remember that babys skin is very sensitive. It will not happen again. I've got one of those uv sun tents and he'll be wearing factor overcoat(that's what dh calls it!!) and be in the tent from now on in the garden!!

Emmymummy · 09/07/2007 10:00

Morning CD! Who took pics at our meet up? Don't think anyone's posted any so far.

Octo - go on go on go on go on.....and tell us first!

eca · 09/07/2007 10:01

morning all

2 doidy cups arrived this morning VV excited!! Thanks dippy

I'm confused... did ange get married and did ellie go????????? Sorry, not been keeping up properly! Love those shoes!!

LOL at hoover in bed with you liath!

Right, I am completely mad... I have now got all my art stuff - that had been packed away to make room for baby in my life - to do a painting for my friends' wedding. Somebody shoot me the next time I go "oooo... I could do X Y or Z for this wedding" Have asked MIL if she can come over this week to give me a hand with T. Not done it before, hope it goes ok. mmm... we'll see, she's not sure if she can come yet.

Poor T is running out of nappies on a regular basis! The ones we're using - Moltex - you can't get round here (living in the middle of nowhere, pampers in abundance). Ordered some online and they haven't come!! Ahhh!! Ok so... deep breath... I called the LOLLIPOP LADY today to try some cloth ones!! So, cd octo maveta give me some advice, any that I must try??? I sense a new addiction creeping up on me.......

normabutty · 09/07/2007 10:02

Hey Octo...go on be brave like dippy says...we want to know!!!! (the suspense is killing us )

okay, okay so we're all just nosey!

Things here ok. sorta.

Emmymummy · 09/07/2007 10:04

Hi Eddas. I've slapped a think layer of F30 on Em today as she always picks up the sun quickly and I always feel so bad when she gets even slightly red on her cheeks and nose. Luckily S hasn't caught any sun yet. I always feel a bit sad when I see babies who aren't properly protected from the sun, esp when you go abroad. Babies do not need suntans.

runnyhabbit · 09/07/2007 10:05

Morning all

Am very of these babies sleeping at night. Tbh, I think W is waking himself up cos when he moves in the night, he hits the side of the crib, and wakes himself up. So I'm hoping all that will change when he's in the cotbed. We have finally cleared the spare bedroom, just needs a lick of paint and new carpet.

Question for those whose dc share a bedroom - what was like in the beginning? We've decided to put J and W into the big bedroom together, so we have the little bedroom as a study (more like somewhere to store junk) Is there anything we should do in preparation?

Lovely day here, so will "see" you later

normabutty · 09/07/2007 10:06
