Evening all - left work early - sod my boss I have other priorities - will have to make up the time next week - dp was so pleased to see me. Don't think Luka is getting any better, will go back to doctors on friday.
Oh maxy - what is it about toddler groups? I go to one every other thursday and there is a devil child there and I have never worked out who he is with - he hits other children and even stamped on a girls hand - I told him off as there was no-one taking charge of him.

It's ok now, she agreed to a refund through a dispute. Takes 5 days though

maxybrown · 16/12/2009 19:40

5 days?? Weird. I've never had that knickers. Always had it back straight away when anything has ever happened to me.

nicolamumof3wisemen · 16/12/2009 21:18

janx you do know that legally they have to give you the time off, i know its unpaid its so hard being a working parent. i had a lovely boss tho so hugs to you and your little family.

Tates scooter was delivered at 7.30pm tonight!

Have we all seen the new maclaren 2010 colours ladies? lovely colour triumphs shame i think they are crap buggies!!

5inthesleighbed · 16/12/2009 21:39

Nicola, glad the HV is taking L's behaviour seriously. Sometimes they are quick to just brush things under the carpet. Mine told me ds2 didn't have autism because he knew the difference between hot and cold

I'm till waiting for my waterproof BS from Jiggly. Hope it comes tomorrow

maxybrown · 16/12/2009 21:45

lol 5in about your Ds, oh they do make you laugh don't they?
I must admit, that's a really good measure for Autism that eh?

I had post tonight at about 5 waiting on loads of bits though. Mainly other people getting me to order things from ebay!!!

hi,can i be nosey,nicola were did you see the new maclaren colours,have been wondering if to sell my xt now its all fixed,maybe this is just the exscuse i need!!

nappyaddict · 17/12/2009 01:40

You would all be very judgey of us at toddlers then He would be the one shouting and running around through the singing and games and trying to snatch the present off everybody whilst I keep trying to take it off him and give it back. I don't bother trying to stop him charging around and being noisy now. It's a toddler group after all, it's what they do isn't it? If the other mums will let their tiny 6 month old babies crawl around the main area and not in the baby area then what do they expect if they get run over by toddlers in cosy coupes?

We also have a brand new car but what most people don't realise is that it's on motability. We are by no means rich!

SantasKinkyKnickers0nMaHead · 17/12/2009 01:58

Is £165 for a BJCM double a good price or over the top?

nappyaddict · 17/12/2009 02:19

I would try to get it down to £145 with P&P if possible but it's not a bad price. Think they are £289 new from Baby world.

5inthesleighbed · 17/12/2009 08:13

Knicks, thats a good price IMO.

Nappy, my ds2 was the same.it's the reason I stopped going to those things, too many judgey mothers

sal1309 · 17/12/2009 08:45

morning all

nicola glad you feel a bit better after a chat with the hv

I must admit my dd is the noisey one at tots now but that is probably because she is the oldest now and she gets bored v. easy she is ready for preschool lol, we are quite lucky as our tots group is great we all keep an eye on each others kids and tell them off if needed (which is good as dd doesnt listen to me lol). We do all sit in a group and natter over coffee but if someone new comes in we do our best to get them involved in conversations and make them welcome.

Well im still waiting on some xmas pressies arriving hope they come soon

Oh and ive made my pram purchase for the new baby ive got a stokke

StrictlyKatty · 17/12/2009 08:55

I'm so sick of being trapped in this house grrrrrrr! I'm waiting for everything to be delivered for Christmas and am too scared to leave the house incase I miss it and have to keep going and collecting things

Thomas table has a dent in it! Put it together last night and it's clearly been dropped on the corner cos all the paint has come off and the wood is split.... why me?!

Stokke is exciting Sal, what colour did you get?

sal1309 · 17/12/2009 08:59

well i got it s/h and it is turquoise blue but my mum has bought me some bn red covers cant wait to try it out lol

FlyMeToDunoon · 17/12/2009 09:13

Morning. Not able to post much atm but am reading the thread when I can.
Bexie I got your address. I will try and post today even though LaLa could probably do with a turn in the washig machine. I hope thats ok.
Off out christmas shopping today [at last] with DP. I seem to have got my message across that he could do with spending some time with me at home and getting a few things done.
Sal I love the sound of the stokke.

carrielou2007 · 17/12/2009 09:51

Morning all.

Stoke - yum!!

Surely the point of the toddler groups is that they can run around/play/do whatever they like?? By chasing after them you are clearly letting them know when is enough and when it's time to stop so over time they learn how these things go. That's not being judgy?

Have been on hands and knees scrubbing floors to try to make sure this baby has turned and is no longer breech. Our hosptial policy is c section at 38 weeks unlike every other that say 39/as close to term as possible for breech. I don't want to go in for christmas!!

BexieID · 17/12/2009 11:35

FMTD - post when you can, theres no hurry!

Am sat next to Tom with the laptop watching the xmas Teletubbies DVD AGAIN!

5inthesleighbed · 17/12/2009 11:36

Sal, I love the blue Stokkes

Carrie, nightmare! Hope the baby turns for you

It's all snowy and cold here today. Love it!

nicolamumof3wisemen · 17/12/2009 11:48

oooh snow 5in, v.jealous!!

well i just got some deliveries from joe browns for DH xmas, and a nice bob and blossom top with a big 4 on the front for tate.

Back from toddlers our group is manic, butg t s friendly and everyone usually keeps a close eye on their kids. I can't follow mine around as their three seperate rooms and with two of them not always possble!!

5inthesleighbed · 17/12/2009 12:06

It's not really lying though

Got my BS off Naccety today, will have to put it on later, as need to wash the other one. Doesn't look as snug as the retro stars though.

janxmas · 17/12/2009 12:39

Afternoon ladies - dp and ds at home with me today - going to leave ds with dp when he has his nap and do a bit of shopping. Can't find dd's lovely stocking from last year - remember there was talk to stockings here - was it peacocks?..Am going to take Luka back to the docs tomorrow as he has a couple of spots on his neck that look at bit odd
Nicola - I am going to talk to HR about my leave - thinking about it everyone who is in my dept today is buggering off at 2.30 for a long lunch, so I don't really think I should have to make up 3 hours from this week!

nappyaddict · 17/12/2009 12:59

nicola Are the different rooms for different ages or can anyone go in the different rooms?

buggyjo · 17/12/2009 14:27

err hello,di ask last night,were are the pics of the new maclaren colours please,really want to see them..

StrictlyKatty · 17/12/2009 14:50
