They are loelt pics,i love the matching xmas babygrows,they look so sweet together.
Ive got a few of our family xmas so will load them up soon but adi has the total big family pic,my horrid sister posted them on FB if anyone can get on it.
Lovely pics Laura - I just love the concentration on Jack's face, and his special Christmas suit!
Was it a lovely day in the end?
its just driving us crazy as hes refused to wear a hat since he had the co-ordination to take them off, in the summer i had to buy little bandannas and now he loves that daft one, goes to bed in it aswell, also mad about his slippers there fluffy boots he thinks they are great!!! hes a bit strange bless him lol
oh bless him he is becommin abig boy now
He's got to grow up now he's a big brother, there are responsibilities!
Besides, he can't have that pesky kid sister sneaking up on him can he...
I think that's so funny he won't take the hat off, all kids get attached to a certain item of clothing at some stage don't they? At least his head will be warm this winter!
we asked him before bed would he like a bed like charlotte and he said no shook he head and hugged the cot! its a cotbed though and lola is having the same as our house doesnt have the room for two fullsize beds in that room, well it does but they need room to play! so its no worry if hes not ready the side just goes back on! We are yet to leave the hat on going out, should be interesting!
Beautiful scan picture, thats soo clear for 13ks!!
were gonna have to move our bedrooms are fantastic size but downstairs and bathroom are a joke for just us let alone the children!
Your right,as long as you have a roof over your head it what counts.I have heard of the council doubling 2 houses and knocking a wall out so its one big house,would be nice. Surely tho you should be entitled to a 4 bed given the kids ages or are they trying to be sneeky and not mention it.
Hope it works out tho for you,will be of now as cant focus on the screen anymore.Nite nite.chat soon.
yep were council too, but they arent keen on moving us as we have a house, if it was a 2bed flat it would be different, well the 2 bed flats round here have much much bigger living rooms and better bathrooms id be happier with smaller bedrooms for a decent size bath and living room, our baths the tiniest thing ive ever seen!!! I absolutley love my house, the location everything, will be devastated to leave but aparently jack and lola arent allowed to share past school age, and we do need the space but who doesnt!! just makes me sooo mad theres a girl younger than me with a 6mnth old got a 3bed just because she was highest priority and that was what was available!!!! oh and shes never worked! were still paying rent ourselves even though roos on jsa!
Theres been a few houses near my mum knocked through for people with 4or 5 children surely if you kick up a little you should be entilted to somthing, much, bigger jo! I learnt to badger as we were ignored for ages then i started ringing everyweek and we gt our beautiful little home!
oh and much as i have whinged bout bury i could never ever leave its a lovely place to live and i could never ever be more than a walk from mum charlotte and thomas as neither of us drive!
My sister was council when her 2 (girl and boy) were little, they got to school age and the council seemed to ignore all the letters she sent saying she needed a 3-bed place.
So she did something only my sister would, and started sending them POETRY! She wrote a letter every week with bad poetry in - things like "Although I love my little flat, there isn't room to swing a cat" style of things. And within 2 months she was in a 3-bed house with a garden.
Sometimes I think you just have to stand out of the ordinary if you know what I mean - I think this appealed to someone at the housing department's sense of humour and they moved her up the list for that reason.
Gorgeous pics Laura, love your new glitter pic of jack and Lola in their ITNG suits Cameron wears old man Pj's too, i think they look so sweet in them!!
Glad you had a good xmas!!
Lovely scan picture Cat - are you more excited now?!! I guess everything else went well at your scan?
Don't know anything about council housing and how it works? We're paying extortionate private rent at the moment and would be better off with a mortgage.. New Year's Resolution is to try and buy a house this year.. just have to work out how!
