Here we go! (or should I say here wii go!?). I'll try doing a link too...

Incidentally, I had a dream last night that Cerys suddenly learnt how to blow proper raspberries! Don't know where it came from but it could be that she has been trying since she was about 4 weeks old and did it entirely by accident yesterday!

I have added a couple more pics of Arben!
He has eczema now behind his ear and on his nose, well thats what the gp said. Someone else said it may be a viral rash associated with him teething. Anybody have any ideas??
You can see the marks in his new pics

PurpleLostPrincess · 28/02/2008 14:22

Awwww, he's gorgeous!! I personally can't see the marks myself, hope you manage to get to the bottom of it soon xx

As far as FB goes, my name is 'Tyrinna Seswick' so feel free to look for me under my real name. I've uploaded tonnes of pictures on there today if anybody fancies having a browse...

That reminds me, I had an idea for our meetup next week. DH thinks I'm crazy for suggesting it but I'm hoping you'll appreciate the idea more... How about I bring a pack of stickers and we all wear two stickers - one with our screen-name on it and one with our real name.

Wow Arbensmum - he is sitting up so well Ben is 5 mths old in a week and is showing no signs yet, although he is standing up really well

Took him to get weighed today, he has only put 5oz's on in 3 weeks so he now weighs 18lb 3oz, he is now in 9-12 mth old babygros though Going to see the doc yet again this afternoon, HV doesn't think his skin has shown enough improvement just on the soya milk so wants him checked again, we'll see what is suggested this time.

Arbensmum · 28/02/2008 14:40

i cant see the marks either that well here either
Cerys and Connie really look similar dont they and those pics of Cerys in the hsop melt your heart. She is such a brave little girl

kyala · 28/02/2008 17:23

Arbensmum You are a mean mummy, you dress him in some of the most awful(lycute, but still) outfits!! No wonder he looks so miffed! lol

kyala · 28/02/2008 18:14

Just looked at "baby arben" pics, hasn't he changed so much! It's amazing! He's like a proper little boy!

Arbensmum · 28/02/2008 18:14

Arbensmum · 28/02/2008 18:16

It is quite scarey how quickly he is growing up

Hopeysgirlwasntbig · 28/02/2008 19:52

Arbensmum, I think I've done it right, I've invited you to be my friend on fb. It's all new to me! And you MrsFish

What this mumsnet name thingy you guys have been talking about?

kyala · 28/02/2008 20:29

On the MN FB profile there's a discussion board (about the 3rd section down) and the first subject is "What's your MN name?"
Click it and it'll take you to the topic/posts.
I've only managed to find Arbensmum and MrsFish. . . so far!

Hopeysgirlwasntbig · 28/02/2008 20:31

PurpleLostPrincess · 28/02/2008 21:12

I've got her on my friends now so you can get to her through my profile if you like... So far I've got MrsFish, Hopey, Arbensmum and Kyala. I've actually got a post-it note next to the computer telling me who is who so I don't get muddled up Thats why I suggested the sticky labels for next week lol!

We're good thanks - Cerys keeps making me think she's got a cold coming (runny nose, grizzly etc); then it seems to fade, then it comes back again... Sometimes I wish she'd just go ahead and get a full blown cold so we can get it out of the way and get on with her immunisations, oh well! I'm wondering if its just her teeth perhaps...?

Our dog is driving us crazy - constantly moaning and whining which she normally does when she's going into season but she had one recently and there's no sign of one just yet. She's such a good doggy but this week alone she has weed on the carpet three times and ripped open nappy sacks twice - not like her at all. If this continues we'll have to take her to the vets which we can't afford. On top of that the light has come on in the car indicating that the brakes need to be done and we can't chance leaving that for any length of time! Considering all of that, I'm feeling strangely OK today - not hopping and skipping but just OK which is better than feeling like total shite I guess

MrsFish, thats still an amazing weight - Cerys was weighed before surgery and she's 13lb 12ozs!!

By the way, we've just bought the next size up of nappies (Huggies); we were using the newborn size 2 but I've just bought some size 3 and was really disappointed with them as the winnie pooh designs seem to have disappeared. I know they've got some pictures on the waistband of Heffalump (which has made all the difference!) but why do they suddenly get boring, I don't get it!?
