Hi all - hope you are all well.
Will try and catch up quickly....
Jake's been in the bigger car seat for a while, he's only just at the lower weight limit but decided he hated the infant carrier, he's much happier in the new one. They cost a fortune though, we had to buy 3 - one for my car, one for DH's car and one for my mum's car - cos they are quite heavy and awkward to move cos we wanted isofix ones. I guess we could have managed with just one but decided we'd rather spend the money. They were all on offer when we got them I suppose so it wasn't too bad.
Jake didn't understand xmas at all, didn't get unwrapping presents but quite liked playing with them. Was the same on his birthday. We now have loads of toys and even though we did him a playroom our living room is full again. We got him a toy box from ELC, can't remember the make but they do matching table and chairs too which he also got (both xmas presents from grandma and grandad) got frogs and teddies and stuff on them, primary colours. Pics on FB if anyone wants to nosey, think I have most of you on there.
Chuck - Ikwym about friends, I saw my "best" friends for the first time in ages at xmas. My new year resolution to myself is not to bother about people who can't be bothered with you. Ok, it might mean I don't have that many friends but who needs friends that can't be arsed with you right?
