I feel a bit sick now though. We got one of those big Quality Street tins on Xmas Day and the three of us have eaten the whole thing.

Themasterandsnowballs · 30/12/2008 14:05

Pink, even better we have new Grey's Anatomy AND Desperate Housewives both starting in a month's time!!

Pinkjennybellrock · 30/12/2008 14:07

I've had to start another thread because you all ignored my Mr. Tumble drama.

TMAS - my administrator bought me a Grey's mouse mat for Christmas. I am staring at McDreamy now, mcdreamily.

AprilMeadow · 30/12/2008 14:12

Sorry sweetie.... not sure what to say/suggest/recommend. I'm not sure that mine have had a reaction to a character before?

SnowOfHands · 30/12/2008 14:28

I think I may be leaving MN. I'm not one for big exits so shan't be frequenting Flouncer's Whatsit.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

hope this will help girls (tantrums ) from someone who has kids aged 5, 3 and 20 months and 6 weeks tantrums are something that is now 2nd nature in our house , we used to resort to using the buggy as punishment but when l-j arrived we bought a babydan playpen a: to keep baby in moses basket so that toddler couldnt get her and b: to put toddler in whilst throwing a fit of tantrums. best 80.00 we EVER spent,

i use it still now as toddler can be put in cant hurt themselves you can walk away until its over or your ready to deal with it, ds now goes on naughty step along with dd1 but l-j gets playpen , most of the time it doesnt even come to that as soon as the noise starts we say "libby do u want to go in plaype" she replies "no" so i say " stop it then" 9 times out of ten she stops and walks away in a sulk but if she doesnt then i dont give in she goes in play pen after a few mins or when she has calmed down i ask her if she wants to come out we have a cuddle and all is forgotton.

its the only thing that has worked with them.
we use the counting to 3 thing too

SOH why why why ????

i have done loads today - de xmased my house, moved all furniture bk packed away tree got a lamb casserole in slow cooker dh taking stuff to tip and managed to get dd2 and dd3 to sleep for an hour at the same time and done 2 loads of washing phew im tired but loads more to go and catchup on after xmas

lilLAURAfeelingontopform · 30/12/2008 15:17

oh and why not sell the vouchers ???

Pinkjennybellrock · 30/12/2008 15:30

Who would I sell them to?

AprilMeadow · 30/12/2008 15:35

Good question there Pink

lilLAURAfeelingontopform · 30/12/2008 15:40

you could have a look in the antenatel threads - ok you wont get 500 for them but you would get something you didnt have originlly

Pinkjennybellrock · 30/12/2008 15:44

I'll just have to wait it out. Maybe I'll be able to use them myself, one day.

AprilMeadow · 30/12/2008 15:59

Step away from the burger van!

Pinkjennybellrock · 30/12/2008 16:01

Don't worry, I'm full up.

Themasterandsnowballs · 30/12/2008 16:03

[confused emoticon] Why the wistful look? Are you planning on having a baby burger next time??

SOH, you can't possibly flounce just a few hours before your birthday, it's just not cricket.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOH FOR TOMORROW

Pinkjennybellrock · 30/12/2008 16:03

I was just gazing out the window and that's what I happened to see. No, I am not planning baby burgers or babies with the burger van man.

AprilMeadow · 30/12/2008 16:17
