June '07...and they're off!

[deckthehallswithboughsofholly]

Coooeeee!!!

There must be something in the air tonight - L always goes down no problem at 7ish - this is the 3rd time ive had to go to her and she was crying every time I tried to put her down. (I tried not picking her up and shhhhhing but no).
So Ive resorted to Calpol and Teething Gel.mmmmmm or she could be getting my cold.

Daisy and Jammy hope the weather improves for your trips. Daisy dont forget to ask your Mum her old stories.

night jammy. annobal, foxy - sleep well
hi JBM

Evening all...

Sorry to everyone who is having a shitey shite day.

What is this about name changing comp?

Went to Clarks, got one pair of shoes for dd. Didn't buy any more as I didn't really trust the spotty 15 year old chav who measured her feet. Apparently she has gone from an F width to a D !

...A little word of advice to anyone wishing to purchase a stroller in the near future...DON'T buy a Ziko, they are a pile of crap!

{{{HUGS}}} to daisy and jammy, you sound super stressed! Hope everything gets sorted.

Fury...OMG about laptop! What a nightmare, just what you need at xmas. Hope you manage to get some sort of comp.

hi holly - are you testing a ziko (wtf is a ziko anyway???) or have you bought one?

Hey derlor (great name btw)!

No, bought one from ebay. 'Tis rubbish. Gonna sell it on here I think. They seem to be quite popular with the huns, so I'll give it a go!

How are you?

Hi Holly and Derlor!

There was a thread the other day about how lots of MN's dont trust Clarkes Holly.

JBme - I am very close to giving Calpol to DS but he is 2 and has all this teeth. Maybe he has a headache. [hmmm]

No
Wait
There is silence now.

Phew

DH just rang. He was out wine tasting with clients by London Bridge and is now going for a drink. After wine tasting? Hope he doesn't act dumb. He is usually quite good though. It was me who used to have the fear after work do's.

Hi elsbells and jbm and also bye!

I'm off to bed...I can hardly keep my eyes open!

Hope everyone has a good night xxx

elsbels - if in doubt just give the calpol, it won't do any harm, could he have earache??

holly dd1 was a 71/2 E in one clarks then an 81/2 F in another the next day - GOD how fast they grow!!!!!!!

Right the little man has come into our room. I have a feeling he wants to sleep in our bed. I know, it is not adviseable but I let both my DC's sleep in our bed at times.

Better go.

Night night girls.

PS Fury if you are out there F*ck re the laptop. That is crap.

So what have you got planned for the weekend Derlor?
Im off to Essex to see a friend on saturday.

Well my Dd had sore throat and fever tonight, which explains last night's shennanigans. the baby woke up an hour after going to sleep, again, probably overtired as he didn't manage a decent nap today.

DH is on the plane home, hopefully. I NEED A HOLIDAY!

i'm not up to much actually JBM though DH suggested we go to see american gangster tomorrow night - we have a babysitter lined up and everything!!! - is Essex far for you to go?

Hi sputnik - i agree you definately deserve a holiday

i'm off to bed - have good weekends girlies
goodnight x

Ohh sorry missed you - I was catching up on the "last 15 mins" threads!!

Ohh that white wine has gone to my head!!

Essex (the bit where she lives) is about a hour or so away i think. Its an old school friend who hasnt met L yet. Im also taking DD1 (oh and DP).

Sputnik where would you like to go? ( I'll get your reply tomorrow)

Well the teething gel/calpol worked- she's fast asleep.

I think im off now - so i'll say g'night XX

Here sounds good to me JBM. can I propose this as the next meetup venue?

great name derlor

I am craving a dyson handheld for xmas am I mad I told dh but said IT MUST NOT replace a piece of jewellry on the list

LOL Andiem!

Trace, my lo has rolled - just twice though, and she isn't sitting up. She certainly isn't moving on her front (her starting crawling is the last thing I need!) and she's not on solids. If that helps.

She is smiling, happy and contented though. That counts for just as much

Work Norty? bbbbrrrrr probably beats reading a Cinderella story. Again.

Morning everyone, hope you all have good trips. DD at childminder today so just me and DS. Lots of jobs to do so just a quick, hello.

Nothing much planned for the weekend here, except for taking Dd to a birthday party tomorrow, and wrapping christmas pressies.

Andiem, I have one of those Dyson handhelds
and I LOVE it (yes, I realise that makes me quite sad)

Elsbels,DD (2.3) has been pretty miserable the last few weeks and I've realised this week that 3 of her second molars are poking through, which might explain it. Or it could just be that she's 2.3. Hope things improve.

Daisy, have a lovely time with your Mum

Morning everyone.

Trace, I wouldn't worry too much. My ds is doing the moving bit, but he is not interested in sitting up at all. As for feeding, he is on a bit of puree when I can be bothered! Yesterday he had no solids at all. I might give him some today, but he never takes more than a few spoons of anything anyway, so there's not really much point! Have you tried Chloe on some different things? The only thing ds will eat properly is sweet potato, even things like apple and carrot just get spat out! Hope she is well and I'm sure she'll get going when she's ready xxx

Everyone who is going away have a lovely time!

Andie, I want one of those too! I am very sad!
