remembered a couple more things:
Mel, I got the shopping jeep from my mum last Christmas and I'm pretty sure she got it from House. Whenever I take it to Knox I refuse plastic bags and I feel good when I get home that I don't have to squish plastic bags into my bags bag. Yeah, it gets checked at Target and Kmart, but that's ok, cos I have receipts for everything in there!
The other thing. Oscar had his first outdoor tumble when I got home. DP had him in the beach dome and DP was working on something behind it. Next thing (and this is why I was taken away from my previous post the first time) I hear a wail coming from the back. Deciding that it was louder than an "I would like your attention, Daddy" cry I raced outside. By that time DP was holding him...and his little romper was covered in dirt and leaves...uh-oh. Dare I ask? Well, all DP would say was "he rolled". Upon pushing the issue he said he rolled near the dome. Looking over I said "He rolled down the hill?", DP says yes, I say "All the way down???", DP says no, so I march over to the edge (being that the dome was placed right near the edge) and pointed at a sapling halfway down this little, steep hill, asking "Did THAT stop him?"...ummm, yes. Oscar had stopped crying by then, so we both concluded that he was shocked and not hurt, so I laughed - bad mummy? Well, what was worrying going to do when the event had occurred? And he was unhurt...but with a face full of dirt LOL! Needless to say, DP has learnt a lesson in play equipment placement...
Dee, things just seem to proceed on this very pleasant trajectory for you, that's unreal!
OK, something just happened now that almost had me giving DP his pressie early. The headlamp would come in VERY handy and I have to pretend that all we have is a crappy torch!
OK, I"ll be hanging around tonight, checking in
