I do get out and that and we do loads, its just not that same as having Ian here, he is my best friend and I unload all my woes onto him, I guess I have just realised how much he does do around the house and with Hope!!

Louise, poor Alex, I guess he has had to grow up fast with a mother like that xxx

Fishy, how much would a new necklace be? Hope broke my chain again and I have lost the heart!!!

Louise I'm so glad those boys have you and Wayne. I totally missed the wooden spoon incident before! I really hope Alex will come round soon. The poor boy must be so torn and moving schools too must be so unsettling for him. I really can't understand how a mother could do that to her own children. X

Louise- as the others have said those boys are lucky to have you and Wayne as she sounds so unstable. It's a lot of stress while you are pregnant hope all is well otherwise.

Everything is good otherwise, I'm glad it's all coming to a head at last and that we finally have some support, we started bringing her behaviour etc to the attention of social services and the court and cafcass back in 2007/08 so it's taken this long to have anyone else fighting our corner with us!

I'm fine with it, used to it now after so long, I can't wait for her to move away to be honest! Pregnancy is going well, I am feeling better the last few days, still sick in thE mornings but I can handle that if I'm not feeling crappy all day! Even managed to eat some chicken which I had major aversions to with Lilia and since being pregnant have felt sick at the thought of it until now. Now I've had thR scan and know everything is ok I have relaxed majorly and am starting to enjoy it! I have a podge pouch, just waiting for it to turn into a bump! I had to wait till 36 weeks for a bump last time so I hope I get one sooner this time!!

Aww Becs, you make me chuckle with grounghog day! I know it must be awful for you, i am in a reverse situation, you can borrow my lazy lump if you like lol xx

Asher, I know what you mean about the cow having a girl, BUT there are many things to say! Boys are scrummy for 1, 2 i never knew i wanted a girl til i knew i was having one! 3, you still may yet have a 4th, (you can go for a 5 a side team like me!) and you had a grand child first so there!
My parentswere really negative when i had the boys, they wanted grandaughters only, it really pissed me off and i still don't forgive them for it, i see ever baby as such a blessing, regardless of sex, remember count yor blessings! xxxx

Louise, poor boys, just wanted to cry, no child should feel scared, did you record the conversation? that would have sealed her fate, there is no child deserves her! I was furious with Ben's old school for leaving marks on his arm from 'restraining' him, i said to the headteacher i have never needed to lay a finger on him for his or anyone elses safety(the excuse they used)so nor should they. they were typically backing up each others story as they do, if he had gone into school with marks that would be another story, a fact i did tell the head amongst other stuff! lol good luckHope the morning sickness has eased xxxx

ladyk, i must admit we have quite a few hand me downs in shoes from a friend, even so rosie chooses welly boots!

Hello everyone else, waves jelly, boony, ym, sarah, emzy, fb, genies and everyone i have not mentioned!

Had a lovely weekend, and got 4 out of 5 in college, school and pre school this morning! just number 5 cuddled up to me!
Ben announced he needed his homework done this morning and had cooking at 10.40 and needed the ingredients, cheeky git! So i had to take him to school, them Em to her school, then back for Sophie and I took the car for her, then went to tesco to get leeks and potato for Ben's soup! Collect Sophie in an hour!
Right nothing more exiting for me today, just the usual piles of housework to be half done, half neglected, I am a selective housewife, just do the bits that i really can't leave! I select my ironing as essential before i iron it! lol xxx

There must only be a few of us that are not preggers again!!! I definately dont want anymore! Done my bit for the human race!!!

Oh Louise that made me feel so sad Poor boys

Hey all, sorry for being the worst threadmate ever in the world! I am always reading but not posting- sorry! Xx
All a bit busy and stressful this end but I will endeavour to catch up and do personals really soon. I thought I would just pop on and say Hi ladies.
I promise to post soon. Xx

Selfish I know- but as I posted I have moved up a ticker box. It's all a bit scary now!!

Hope you're ok TW.

Boony I posted your necklace today by recorded delivery. Would you like the tracking number and would you like to see a photo? X
