I think its a " charming" developmental spurt 
and the kids feel better! Bobby is also being soooooooooo clingy. Its pretty difficult 
Hope the mould gets cleared up 
i know how you feel. it will pass to you too
and 4 times in a row, that'd make my blood boil!!!
that meant i had to take both her and owen to my friends flat as she was going to give me some pointers about the job i am applying for as it is her old job. erin was of course excited to be in another person's home and as she has 3 kids about the same ages as mine they played but then started fighting over who would hold the crisp packet kids! it helped to talk to her though and on friday i am going to talk to the head of the school where the job vacancy is.
poor you. I hope you're feeling better, days like that are horrible. Lack of sleep is such a killer. I hope you have a better night tonight 
she's had a bit more success with them today and thinks he will take from those bottles if he is really hungry. ooooooooo that chickpea curry sounds gorgeous! I'll have to have a look on the internet so see if I can find something similar nom nom!! I'm really lucky with my girls, especially my eldest - they both eat pretty much anything and I'm hoping Alex will be the same. Its so nice when you can all go out for dinner together and not worry whats on the menu. Holly has a friend who will still only eat Turkey Dinosaurs and chips and cheese sandwiches and will only drink blackcurrant squash and she's 9. She gets really nervous about going to friends houses for tea becasue she will literally not eat anything else!.... great news about the 9 month check 
how strange they dont weigh! Finally I have a couple of friends that constantly let me down and its got to the stage where they say we must meet up soon and I just think yes we must and pigs might fly 
they're lovely people, just thoughtless sometimes.. so I understand your frustration! fantastic weight loss though! 
hope you get some sleep tonight 
I hope Bobby's clinginess (is that a real word 
?) doesnt last 
I hope Owen gets better soon x xx
haha.
Glad Joni is doing so well, she's so pretty. I don't think it'd be worth getting a Jumperoo, Daisy hated hers as soon as she got mobile about 2.5 months ago, but she is a bit of a nark so I wouldn't really use her as anything to judge by Go to bed and text Steve asking him to call you when he's outside xx
I'm fine and don't buy them or make myself anything bad to eat and then Vinny comes in with chocolate. Bad man. I think I've missed a bit, how old is Gabriel now? Daisy wants to hit Summer with things, it's unpleasant, mainly because my sister acts like I told her to do it 
how old is Summer now? Is Daisy like that with all other babies? Alex always wants to be best friends with them all. He was grabbing at a baby girls bottom at baby club last week and her mum said "ohh Ava, I think you've got a boyfriend!"
to you all xxx
your amazing progress on WW almost makes me think I might join too I like how you refer to our babies less than desirable behaviour as 'charming' that is priceless 
Nel, lovely to 'meet' you. How wonderful that your little man was born on your wedding anniversary 
it sounds like it makes her self conscious too. Good luck with double trouble next week 
Thanks for the feedback on the jumperoo I think if I could find one for £30 I would get one but lets face it that is soooooo not going to happen I can touch type so writing them only takes a bit longer than having a conversation.
) - probably a mixture of all the above. 
now so I think a bum change is in order.
so i have called them and the guy i need to speak to is out lecturing and not back til 10.30. i will leave it til 11.30 and if he hasnt returned my call then i shall be calling again. it's just not fair that i am being given the run around i feel ok off to try and get owen to nap. catch you all later xxx
sleepwise owen is back to rubbish sleep he is teething his top 2 and has a cold!!!
I'm like that IRL too though, my conversations tend to kind of bounce off the walls iykwim! You're not the worst Mum ever! If it's any consolation, Daisy fell last week and hit her head on the fireplace (it's wood, not granite or marble) and I felt horrendous, even worse because I'd been putting off baby proofing it because I didn't want to ruin it. Needless to say I went out a couple of hours later and bought padded edging stuff for it! Daisy has woken up twice since 7.45! We went to the sensory room today, she loved it and I could really see how much she'd come on in the two weeks since we last went! I'm going to take the plunge and go to Musical Minis at the Childrens Centre on Monday, I'm nervous
a two week period 
poor you! Mine have gone since taking domperidone and its so nice! x dont worry its not your fault, Alex seems to have at least 3 head bonks a day at the moment with wanting to stand all the time! He had a huge lump yesterday where he pulled up on the stair gate we have on the lounge (to keep the crazy exhausting puppy out!) and he twisted himself and fell backwards onto a bar really hope you get some sleep tonight I took him to his nursery for a taster session and there was a baby 3 weeks younger than him sat in a bumbo and he REEEEALLY wanted to play with her. He kept grabbing her head and squueeeezing his dribbly face into her I bet they are dreading having him there now! he made the little girl cry he needs someone like Daisy to play with then he'd learn that he tends to hurt LOs I was so embarassed but its not because he's rough, he just loves snuggling!
the toddlers were quite happy doddering about but the babies really werent getting the time and attention I can give Alex at home. We have two more settling in sessions the week after next but I cant stay for those. urgh, I hate it! x
Oliver and I are both feeling much better. I ended up following Emera's advice and sitting in the bathroom with the shower on hot for about an hour it did work though and we were both breathing a bit better after that. Oliver finally fell asleep at about 11pm, and I fell asleep too so Steve almost didn't get let in Luckily I heard him knocking. Oliver actually slept pretty well after that, and we got up at about half eight. I was feeling soooo rough and ended up waking Steve up to look after Oliver so I could go back to bed. I felt awful for asking as Steve had only had about five hours sleep himself. I got up at about 10, and took Oliver for a long bath to get some more steam. He seemed much, much better though which I was glad about, though looking after a very active baby when you feel ill is sooooooo hard!!! At about 5pm I fell asleep, so Steve fed Oliver his tea and got him ready for bed, and then woke me up at seven. I put Oliver to bed and then went to bed myself at half eight . . . and we both slept pretty well until half eight this morning!!! I think he woke up maybe twice . . . . argh it was sooooo nice!! All the sleep did the trick too and we've both been much, much better today Steve had booked it off as Holiday but now has to work It would have ment that I had to set up and be on my stand on my own for three days, so it just wasn't possible. Plus if Oliver had an 'I Need Mummy' moment there would have been no one on my stand. Event though I got a good price it was still going to cost quite a bit, so I would have needed to really make the most of it, so it just wasn't going to work out. I'm a bit gutted as I was really looking forward to it but well, never mind!! Now I'm starving
urgh, I'm sure it will all be OK and I'll be super organised about time so that when we get home he gets lavished with love and attention. I dont want him to feel abandoned
and now Oliver has woken up, but I promise a proper catch up tomorrow!!
