Happy birthday Noah!!
Thanks so much to everyone for Elliott's birthday wishes, that's so nice! I'm really enjoying this BB stuff! Elliott had a great day yesterday, hanging out with Mummy then a little party in the afternoon with his great-grandparents, grandparents and godmother and favourite girlfriends. He loves my cousins Georgia (5) and Grace (2), I think they're the whole reason he started walking at 11 months, and he was so excited to have them over yesterday. Next Sunday we're having a baptism/birthday party with all of my family and friends etc and that's nearly 60 people. We were going to have it at ours but decided in the end that it's safer to have it at the RSL so that a) I don't have to clean, and b) What if it rains!?!

I'm not quite getting there with the personals yet but here's trying:

Veronica - Eergh fleas are awful, we had them all through our house when someone cat-sat our cat after E was born and brought her back COVERED with them. We were horrified and you feel so dirty when you've got fleas! Eventually after washing and washing and washing her with flea bath, dousing her in flea powder, and trying everything, we ended up going to my dads for a couple of days and bombing the place, it was the only thing that worked. Oh, then we got rid of the cat! Good luck!

I've really heard alot about slapped cheek syndrome a lot recently, and someone in my mothers group recently had Hand, Foot & Mouth! Oh these children & their diseases!

Anyway, I'm freezing my you know what's off so I'm off to bed - wait a second, does anyone else just HATE that Napisan OxyAction Max ad where that little boy asks "What's frustration?" Frustration is watching an ad that just repeats itself and is irritatingly patronising. The Napisan woman just repeats what the mum said!!! Almost EXACTLY!
