technology nightmare !!!!!!!!!!!!

AAAaarrrgggghh why do things have to be so complicated or is it just that I am a Techno phobe ( god I sound like I am 93 !!!!!!!!!)


here is my new baby. An IPOD nano 4gb ( holds 1000 songs ) ................... or should that be if I can get the music on to it. What a nightmare. Last night I got 42 songs on it and today after downloading some cd's onto my pc I tried to add them and now I have just about the whole content of my library on it. Bob the builder and the Balamory theme tune is definately not something I want to be listening to but somehow it has copied just about everything ggggrrrrr.

I cant believe I have never bought one before now as I love music. Definately showing my age now LOL.

Haley will pop up later to try and sort it as I really dont have a clue and the instructions are total pants..................

So fingers crossed after today I will be able to listen to the music I actually want on it........

LO

just adding a photo of one of the LO's I started at the crop last month and have only just got finished. Does that make me a really slow scrapper LOL !!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Mum

Just a quick post today as we are off out for my mums birthday. I am meeting my mum and Helys at the Grapes in George Street then having something for lunch. Here is a card that I made for my mum this morning ( I thought I had a card made for her but couldnt find it !!!!!!) Got round to using some of my DCWV papers that I have had sitting for ages. I really must make some more cards so they are there ready to use.

Archie is spending the day with his gran and grandpa and they are off to the park so he will have a great time with them today.

Have a great weekend......

No more afternoon sleeps..........

Well after our few late nights with Archie who refused to go to sleep until 9.30 pm ( how can a little person be so strongwilled !!!!!!!!) I dropped his afternoon sleep and this resulted in him going to sleep at 7.30pm and waking at 7am .............. BUT yesterday while out for a walk he fell asleep.......... well last night we had another 9.30pm bedtime then he woke at 6.30am this morning so only had 9 hours sleep. I took him to the shops this morning and he fell asleep in the car just as I was about home ( literally 30 seconds from the house ) and nothing would waken him. There are road works right outside my front window and the noise they were making was unbelievable and he still slept through it as I got him out of his car seat and into the house. I let him have a 20 min nap on the couch but this boy really does power nap as tonight it was 8.30pm before he went to sleep so back to the plan of not letting him sleep during the day. Hopefully he will have a good sleep tonight and sleep in tomorrow as it will be just me & him as his daddy is away to Amsterdam early in the morning (stag do) Even if he doesnt sleep in tomorrow I am going to plan my day so we dont go anywhere in the buggy or car when he is tired to get him back into not having a nap. There was just no way I could have kept him awake today as he was sooo tired. My wee lamb. Anyway with hubby being away I may actually get some scrapping done or even finish my key holder this weekend ( as long as Archie is in bed for 7.30pm LOL )

ZZzzzzzzzzzz

I have been having problems with Archie's sleeping recently and wasnt sure if he was ready to drop his afternoon nap so today I thought I would see how he went without a nap. He was OK although did pull poor Ewan's hair when they were out playing so for that he went in the naughty corner ( which seems to be working quite well ) I brought him in for his dinner which he ate then gave him an apple which is when I thought he was being a bit quiet and he was actually dozing off while eating his apple. I took him out of his chair and put him on the couch where he was totally asleep so I left him for 30 mins............. so much for dropping his nap during the day. He went down no problem tonight as well where as the last few nights he didnt settle until about 9pm. This photo is the end result. I also took a few videos so will try and add one !!!!!!!!

Ouch....

I am soooooo sore from the Go-Karting at the weekend. I really feel like I have been in a car crash. Not sure what to do today but think it will involve walking with Archie ( ie him walking not being pushed )

Last night I put Archie down to bed at 8.00pm and he had a little gurn but then his daddy walked passed his bedroom (grrrrr) and all hell broke loose. It then took us ( eh !!!!!! mark as I told him it was his fault Archie wasnt settling) until 9pm to settle him but the wee pudding did sleep until 8am today xxxxxxx I am just not really sure if Archie is ready to drop his afternoon nap so he will be really tired at 8pm as I dont want to keep him up any later ( although the long lie was fabby hehe ) so might try today, although sometimes depending on what he has done he can sleep for 2 hours during the day and then go to bed at 8pm no bother, but this is usually when the wee rascal has got up at 6.30am. Will play it by ear today and if he yawns might let him have a wee nap but wake him after 45 mins.

Anyway I am off to get ready to go out so will leave you with a photo of my gorgeous wee chappy and one of him and his daddy xx

Happy Fathers Day

here is what Archie kindly got his daddy for Father's day & he even made his daddy a card hehe...................
