Good morning ladies and Happy Easter
Borboleta T saying dada is a great start! My boys say it too but they call everything daddy and dada so I don't think they mean my OH lol
The cake was yummie! I am sure Claire's would have been better of course but for a shop bought one it was very nice! The boys however didn't get any. lol Far too sweet I think.
As for the toys not shutting off yes we have one like that. It is forever asking the boys to join in the fun even when they are across the room from it
Sounds like little T will soon be done with his teeth and I am sure you are counting the days! Poor boy suffering so! I think if he cries when brushing his teeth it would be a definite indicator that there is something swollen and painful in his mouth! Hope it is better today already.
What you said to Sabrina about going to the front yard in your jammies made me grin! Our postman must think me a slob as I never appear at the door in anything but jammies and my hair pulled back in an untidy knot! I just don't usually get to get dressed before 12 after the boys' lunch these days! It is a good thing that I always have showered or bathed in the evening anyway otherwise I would stay dirty forever too lol.
My boobs have deflated a bit too. They never were big but always firm and now not so much
And I fear it will be worse if/when I lose weight. Sigh. Ah well.
As for my boys still being in their bouncers, we only bought these ones a few months ago and they are meant to be from baby to toddler so not that small. But they might well be too small to be comfy for naps. We shall have to try and get them to nap in their beds. But I have no idea how to do it without them going hysterical when left in their room
Oh and we bought those bottles that you showed us with the straw and both boys immediately worked out how to use them. Sadly it didn't stop Dominic playing with the water, sucking it in and then spilling it down his front. I had to change him completely as he was wet to the skin lol. But I think once we switch to those with their milk too he won't do it then, he is far too greedy for his milk lol.
Jules hope you have a lovely time at the Lake District and get to relax a little
Hope your gran is better too?
Kosh thank you for your birthday wishes and lovely to see you here
Clio my mum's little place is on the Costa Calida on the south-eastern coast of Spain near a place called La Manga. I cannot say that I like what is around there very much cause it is mostly cheapo high raised holiday homes that have no Spanish flair at all. But her place is in a very beautiful golf and country club and the ppl who come there have either had their apartments and houses for many years and/or are golf/sports nuts. So none of those horrible beer swilling German and English louts that Spain is so famous for.
I have been to Marbella once and I do remember that it was lovely around there. Where my mum is the countryside is quite arid in summer however so that I imagine keeping the golf courses green takes a lot of work.
I didn't really know anything of Spain except Marbella and La Manga and always thought that it was mostly infested by those cheap tourists that spoil the place so. But 4 or 5 years ago Nick and I went to Seville. That blew me away! What an absolutely gorgeous city! I completely and utterly fell in love with it and I hope maybe one day we can go back and explore other cities too.
As for the toy thing, would you believe it, our boys too were given those odd eggs! I mean they look quite cute at first glance but hm. Well we put them away as soon as we could cause those edges look painful!
I am glad the napping is going better with J now. I really have to try the cots with the boys. I am just a coward cause I know it will mean CIO
.
I am so impressed with J and his first sentence and I don't think he said it as a fluke!
As for the bread, I think you might be right that it sticks to the roof of his mouth. We shall in future try with toasted bread for their sandwiches. Thank you
Leeze your vacation on the farm sounds so lovely! How sweet she must have been to watch with the ducks
As for your OH and the packing, I know mine would be the same too.
Seems that most men tend to be like that and need more Me time. Actually that reminds me of that infamous book Women are from Venus and Men are from Mars. I think it mentioned in there that men needed their cave time? Seems about right. Nick always needed time to himself even before the boys were born.
Sabrina hope Finn is ok and the throwing up was just a one off and not some sort of bug in the making? Also, I hope he feels better today re his teeth, poor boy!
And as for your OH all I am going to say is
and
!
Rowan you probably won't see this but just in case you do, I think we all understand that you have very little time now to come on here. But I hope that once M2 is here and things are a bit more settled in you will be back with us
. But even if not, I am glad I can see your updates etc on FB
Hope all is well. Sending
As for us, my mum left this morning but had no time to come and see us before her departure. She is so lovely! Once again she did all my ironing the sweetie!
Sebastian warmed to her much quicker this time and it only took about half a day before he smiled at her and the next day he was cuddling her, crawling over her, letting her chase him, giggling and doing everything to totally enchant her lol. Dominic as you might remember of course managed the feat on sight as he is always so happy to meet new ppl and play with them right away. Most of her days were spent on the floor with the boys and playing with them
Question for those with a routine: Do you adjust your LOs to the time change or do you just keep to the old time? I am tempted to stick to the old time cause that would mean my boys would wake after 7 rather than after 6. Which would be bliss of course. But then again this would also put them in bed at 7:30 to 8 and I know that OH is usually quite glad to have the evening to ourselves from 7 on. Hm not sure what to do.
Got to go Dominic wants me! Hope all are well xxx
for J talking in sentence! He is such a smart little man! Amazing! Thiago just said dada dada the other day 
. He might caught a virus or something 
.
! Yesterday it took OH and me 2 hours to finally calm him down to put him in bed 
!
