This week I shall be mostly eating Toffee apples. Man I love them at the moment.

As it turns out this week is actually much better than the previous one. I appear to be intact mentally and physically(well using the latter very loosely) Ella of course has chosen this week to be a complete Pratt, using all manner of newly acquired and very accomplished Mummy torture to make my day a little more interesting. Her efforts thus far have been so conniving it takes all my strength not to admire or at least giggle my arse off. Obviously it would be bad parenting to giggle not to mention the mess I would leave on the carpet..........

Please out of courtesy restrict all funny happenings to the linoleum. Thankyou MANAGEMENT

Eighteen days to go until due date. Legs firmly crossed.

Poor love , those Mummy tortue tactics are something else, painful even when they are hilarious ! Have you read " Ofcourse I love you , now go to your room " A great book by a smart NZ lady called Diane Levy , she writes a column in the Little Treasure magazine. Great advice !!17 days to go, can't wait to see pictures of this beautiful little girl and hear stories of Ella's transition to being a " big sister. Thinking of you.

Hmmn sounds like a good and appropriate read. Thanks for the thoughts but a coffee with you and J would be much better.

I'll second that DG, miss you both very much, no one else drinks coffee and eats cake like we three do!

Love Diane Levy too, but also Toddler Taming by Dr Chris Green is a good one (and no, laughing is not ideal, although sometimes unavoidable... Phoebe loves the taste of crayons now anyway!).

Wow 17 days! must keep the mobile charged, make sure we're on your list hun! xxx
