[PillockOfTheCommunity]

Proud mummy boast alert!

Yesterday and today B has stood independently for around 10-15 seconds! I love the crawling phase - hope this doesn't mean it'll be over soon - so cute when she pads along towards you!

Hi GMM - good to see you back

WO - very with your work - they are breaking new ground in crapness! Poor you with the tooth as well! Enjoy your walk - am very - which Loch are you heading for?

Dippy - sorry today is not going too well - are you nervous about tomorrow? What time is the interview - I will 'pray you through it'

Caz - hope you get some news soon!

SPB - B has top and bottom teeth as well - feeding is ok - she's only bitten me once - and she was more than half asleep then.

Right - B's pasta will be ready so need to go do lunch

Byeeeeeeeeeeee

wow to standing unaided NL!
Surely the walking phase is good too? Although I have to say I will miss the little bum wiggle T does as he crawls

if he does it while he walks too he'll look very camp

lol katy at T's bum wiggles

Yes walking phase is lovely - but I really like watching my little bear padding towards me - I think I've got a while yet anyway

Love the bum wiggling!

N still doesn't crawl! he rolls like a demon and would stand all day if you hold his hands. lately he's got up on all fours and has once or twice kind of rocked back and forth like that, but that's it. He just doesn't seem bovvered

ooh make the most of it!

we're off to the surgery for M to have his pre-school booster. so not looking forward to this. Remember the fuss when he had a splinter in his foot? 2 nurses, doctor and me couldn't hold him still enough because he thought it might hurt. Really can't see him just sitting there while they stick a needle in him ]
of course, I haven't actually told him there may be pain involved in the trip, just that he can have an ice cream after if he's good

Good Luck with the jabs potc x

NL - Molly will do the standing thing, until she realises she is doing it iykwim?
I hope I hear something soon too........

Hope jab is ok, POTC xx

P isn't crawling properly yet either, commando crawling now, so won't be long.

P sleeping, DD2 playing, DD1 doing my head in: "Mummy, mummy, mummy, mummy ......"

hello everybody, I'm feeling a bit better this week, maybe because the kids are over the flu [thanks god]

i'm looing forward to tommorow as we have the photographer coming over for the baby shoot for the magazine, I don't have a clue what to wear though
Also had a quite good night on saturday,we had to go to an engagement party in London with lots of umm professional people there.
Anyway the editor from the pregnancy magizine was there and I got talking to her and she offered me a job!

they want me to review different baby products for them, everything from bum cream to prams, and I get to keep all the stuff they sned me
So of course I said yes, who wouldn't, i don't think I will have very much time for mn while i am writing my reviews though as I bearly have enough time as it is, but at least it will give me something constructive to do with my time and may lead on to a bigger and better things.

I hope you and all your Lo's are doing well.

Hi lovelies.

KHIN, glad to hear you sounding perkier. Hope the photo shoot goes well - sounds great fun. Fab news about the job as well!

WO, I cannot believe your work haven't got back to you yet. Have you chased them up?

SPB/Mav, glad you both had better nights. Good luck with tonight.

Hope everyone else is ok - sorry for lack of personals. Has been a manic day and I am off out in a mo to Parent's Evening at B's school - see what she has been up to!!

BAck later. x

wow it´s quiet tonight..glad to hear your news KHIN - hope you have fun tomorrow and you will have to snatch a few seconds here or there to let us know how the job goes - sounds fun!

My kitchen/sitting room looks like a tornado has swept through but N is washed, fed and in bed (though not asleep by the sounds of it), stewed apples and pears done and ratatouille started. Just got to whip round and tidy up and I shall reward myself with a lovely vodka and orange Hope someone´s around to join me by then!

wow KHIN - sounds like a chance not to be missed!

oh and have heard from the farmer, but not really sure what's going on

he has changed his mind and said can he not just pay us more so that we can rent another house ourselves......the problem is that although he would be paying us more than before, we would actually be nearly 6k a year worse off as we would have to pay more tax, and would lose two thirds of our tax credits payments......I have tried explaining this to him, but not sure if he gets where I am coming from (must be lovely to be blissfully unaware of how the other half live hey?) so not really sure what is happening atm

Just feel like we keep taking a step forward, and then 2 steps back iykwim and

but on the plus side, dh has apologised profusely (so he should!) and is now helping me to fight our corner (better late than never!) and things are nearly back on track with us. I love him dearly, but I am a rather independant, but insecure person, that at the first sign of trouble would rather just sort it out on my own - even when I am in labour, I don't want anyone to talk to me or touch me

anyway.....how are we all tonight???

ellie - hope jab went well for M

caz - how frustrating

maveta - you domestic godess

KHIN - sounds great the job and you get to keep the stuff - wow some nice twin pushchairs out there

sol - I'm sure B has been an angel

we all picked ds1 up from nursery and we went to pizza hut for tea and it was lovely

well I am soon to be kicked off pc again for more college work from dh

HOW EXCITING kneehigh - nice one!

Sorry x-posts ..... Oh Caz and Great that DH is on side now too though I am the same as you - I couldn't bear to be spoken to or touched while in labour!

Oooggs - I prefer anally retentive control freak

Hi CD!

Caz - sorry it´s still not resolved but glad things are better between you both, keep us posted!

Hey Maveta! DH out tutoring, I'm worrying about my interview tomorrow and about P going down ok for her morning nap

Ok why are all my word documents locked and what can I do about it?!?! Have an online application form thats come up in word but keeps saying its locked, as does my CV in Word and anything else. Please help me before I throw the laptop across the room!!!

boo!

it was dreadful, she did the first one while he was making faces at Joe as Joe was crying, then he howled. and screamed. and shrieked. clung on for dear life and could not be prised off me to turn round for the second one, so I had to turn round with him attached. then he kicked. and fought. so I had to pin him down and she did it very quickly.

in the car on the way home he made me promise that he wasn't going to have to do it again soon!

oh, and the leaflet said it should be done between 3yrs 4mths and 5 yrs, which I guess is why there's been huge variation in ages for our older ones having it.

caz - grrr to the farmer, it's a country thing (you're too close to Norfolk, they're very countryfied there, just ask pinions )

Ellie help me!!!!!!!

Evening.

POTC, oh dear. Poor M. It really is a nightmare isn't it when they are older. I hope he is ok now.

Caz, what a bugger about the house. Gld you and dh are on the same wavelengh though. Thinking of you.

Dippy, good luck tomorrow.

Hi Oooggs, sounds like you have had a lovely day.

All ok here. B has been doing fine. They did comment on the fact that she has a strong character though! Apparently there are a few the same, and it has made for some interesting challenges in the classroom!!

Where is everyone tonight?

pesha - restart, unless you need to save them
