HI ALL!
Yes Choc, I didnt finish my post the other day...I came back to the computer and got the screen of death [said in scary voiceover tone]Dh revived it when he came home but I haven't had chance to say much since..
my scrawl on the note pad says something like;
Dal glad the rash is being sorted, hope af arrives promptly so you can start the abs......it appears not [pondering/excited emoticon]
Strawberry Hi!Hope 1st day at work was not too bad....again it appears it has been fine
LLLWow at Bens mountaineering..I thought Alex was bad for that but he has only managed to get on top of his inflatable (about 18 very wobbly inches high )it is unbelievable that what seems like 5 mins ago you were as worried as Muppet about him being slower than some to get going! Must admit I dont envy you 2 dss so active I've got my work cut out keeping one out of mischief.
Stefka;Well done with the sleep. I'm so sorry about all the worries you have at the moment, Dhs work, bil, car crash etc etc...such a run of bad luck must be due to change and with life being "balanced" and all that the good times around the corner are going to be just fabulous I'm sure.
Alice Well done on getting Adam through to 5.30, I hope it has continued [FT wanders off day dreaming of the sweet, distant memory of sleep]
Muppet you made me cry...what an utterly lovely inscription to write in his book, it is something he will treasure for his whole life.
I'm glad all those returning to work have found it ok, and all those who have stroppy nappy changes, I'm soooo with you on that one (unfortunately) and those having days when feeding is bad and others when it is good...yeh, with you on that one too..there is no rhyme or reason to it..I try distractions and toys and singing and funny faces but if he is in a no eating mood whether it is finger food or soup, haute cuisine or a jar, the dog gets the lot! (usually on his head!)
For me it hasn't been the happiest week...Monday was the 2nd anniversary of losing Robyn, I thought I'd be ok now I've got my darling Alex (last year I was bad because he still hadnt arrived of course)but I wasn't...Alex has had a cold and his sleeping got worse again, ironically last night he slept like a log (well, relatively, for him)and only woke for bf at 1.30 and 4.30 before reveille at 6.45 but the dog (who normally sleeps for Britain and will happily cross his legs of 17 hrs rather than go out in the rain)got me up 4 times to be let out before I locked him in the utility room at 4am (where unfortunately he had an accident[guilty/bad dog owner emoticon])so I still didnt get a good nights sleep
I'm now going to be off line for just over a week as we are going to Cornwall (Padstow) with my mother and brother, and I need to get the packing done...I just hope the weather improves...
Oh and we are running out of space on this thread (15 or so posts to go) suggestions for a new title would be good. Mine, after all the food discussions we have been having is;
"This little piggie had loads of roast beef and This little piggie would have none of it!"
