the blue thing was a freebie silicon finger cover for applying teething gel. She bites me too hard for me to risk wearing it any more, so I let her hold it now!!!

Hi! I'm Kathryn & I'm 38. I'm married to Alan and we have two lovely little girls, Emma and Sophie. Emma started school in September 2007 and Sophie is running now! We live in Rugby, England. I'm a full time mum (no, I'm not a housewife, not my strength at all, takes all my time trying to be a mum!!!). We're very involved in church activities. I help to run a Toddler Group on 2 days a week.

Al & I have been married for a wonderful 11 years (I've put the ticker in or I'll never remember to get a card LOL!). He works away quite a bit which is no fun - usually in Ware (where? Hertfordshire, UK), Evreux (France) or Raleigh (USA), but is based in Coventry. He's a systems software engineer.

Before kids I was a full time horticulturist, limited to office work by less-than-ideal health (RSI & results of motorbike accident) but I'm still a keen gardener, when I have the time!

Emma is delightful, big for her age but definitely of the Strong-willed (High Needs) variety. She has relatively mild asthma & eczema. Emma started sleeping thru at 15 months, teethed late and loves drawing, writing and gymnastics.

Sophie specialises in smiling. She seems like she's warming up to be a milder version of her big sister Em! She still isnt sleeping through and a late teether, though she's been working on them since 4 months.

I''ve breastfed both girls and used modern washable nappies with both girls, mostly coz both are cheaper, easier & greener!
