Thanks ladies, by the sounds of it I should take E to the shops and try her in the bumbo before we commit. The one I missed was actually a bebepod and apparently they have a bit more room in them...? Cally didn't you get a bebepod? How's that going?

Arte - Go Will you Bay City Roller you! Woohoo! E is getting so close, she pushes off as if to roll but gets onto her side and goes no further LOL. I missed the last two baby & child markets (one in hospy, another we were away), a pity since before that I didn't know about bumbos. She's ready for it now and I don't really want to wait, I want a bargain NOW!

Jazmum, yep it's pretty amazing, what a year it's been (and where would I be without you all!?). Though I'm the first to admit breathing a sigh of relief that 2007 is over. It was the same when DD1 was born - big year all round. Now we can get on with everyday life again!

Noni, LOL at the mess, bit like that at my house, esp in H's bedroom! Wow at getting money, quick spend it! LOL only joking, save it for a rainy day, when there's something you really really want to get for her! Well done on minimal gain over Xmas, I'm dreading the Jan weigh in as I went hog wild for a week or so there !

Katie, wow four months already! Hope the needles go ok.

Well Squeaky has a new trick of getting up to play for a couple of hours in the middle of the night (!!!) you can imagine how pleased we all are with that - not! Ok, gotta go, she's squeaking!

Special shout out to Pregpan and Queenie - missing you guys!
