Hello all

TMM, well done to Pompey. Who's watching Chelsea - ManU tonight? not me. Though I suspect DH will be, though he supports neither.

So, are all your 3 yo's toilet trained?
We have just started Joey, he has so far been in complete denial of any activity in his pants! We've got him some training pants, and some for DD as well, and a sticker chart thingy. So far it's 3-0 to DD... He'll sit on and wait for ages but nothing comes, then we all give up and two minutes later he goes in his pants/on the carpet. At least he's starting to admit when he's done a wee now though... A poo is usually done by DD or the crocodile or any other animal close by...

Hope everyone is well.

git!!

fran started overnight but bless her heart if idon't wake her up (if i'm still asleep lol) she sleeps soundly and doesnt wake up atm til it's too late. so we are both tired. children do it in their own time i think, training pants didn't really work for fran she even admitted that she just treated them like nappies but know that they do work for some children. i found that going to nursery (lol tmm) in september was a big incentive for her. she dry during day, tho do have to "encourage" her to go, it's just night time now.

Hi ladies,

Been in Florida for 12 days and had a fantastic time, just a shame that we had to come back!

Jack is dry during the day and i hope that by the end of the year he might be dry at night.

Ella started walking whilst we were away which was nice and she is very proud of herself.

Am super busy at the moment and will be for the next few months. Have bought a new house and have loads of work that needs to be done so will be project managing it as well as working.

Big hello to you all and i promise i wont be so slack at posting

TheMuppetMuggle · 23/05/2008 17:40

AM- Well Done to Ella

FM - it is sad about OJ & family.
How are you??

Its gorgeous weather here today. and my DP Lee is off swanning with mates in New York till tuesday - alright for some.

We had to pull out of the house we are buying as turns out unsellable due to an error on the buyer not doing something correct in conjunction with Planning permission granted by the council so we have 2 mths to find a place and get moved in before our mortgage offer runs out! (stress)

Other than that we are all good

TMM xx

AnnieAreYouOkAreYouOkAnnie · 27/05/2008 16:56

Hello ladies!

FM, hope you are ok, how did it go yesterday?

TMM sorry to hear about the house, hope you find something soon.

AM well done to Ella! How old is she?

Well the toilet training is not going too well. I'm starting to think he's just not ready yet. Maybe he feels the pressure. He tells us after he does a wee, and occasionally he'll sit on the toilet to try and go (when we think he's due one) but really has no idea when he's about to do one. We have used some spectacular bribery to get him to even sit/stand at the loo, but only once has he done a wee in it and that was very lucky timing. DD on the other hand seems to want to go every five minutes! But only sometimes actually makes it... sigh...
It is tiresome though...

Hope you are all well.

Annie

AnnieAreYouOkAreYouOkAnnie · 27/05/2008 16:57

Doh, just seen that Ella is one! Well done Ella!!

fransmom · 29/05/2008 16:54

TheMuppetMuggle · 02/06/2008 16:06

FM - coppers are a waste of time considering the money we pay for them everyday.

I Started my new job at 4am this morning, finished 11:15am, then walked home as our car in the garage (again) so didn't get in till about 11:35ish. my feet are killing me and my head is pounding.

Yes we are still househunting and i've looked at so many houses and not one has had the WOW factor iykwim. although seen 3 we really like, got 2 more to see tonight so will see how we get on!

How is everyone else?!

We went to Marwell Zoo yesterday and we loved it, although i had a morning of throwing up which wasn't fun, and i've caught the sun. Darcie loved it, and brought home george the giraffe .

Think we've found the house, just waiting for lee to call and put the offer in.

Hope your all well
