Quite proud of myself!

You look great!


Not sure who mentioned longest and shortest... I've written them on the list I think we'd take a measurement from 14 days to count in that - B's hadn't changed. She was 22"/56cm but I think I remember reading someone was even longer!

Been out to the market this morning, Charlotte snoozing, DH at Sainsburys with Bridget so I've just had a nice nap too. Got to go and clean/sterilise/fill some bottles now and have a tidy up in the kitchen - the cleaner was here yesterday and already it looks like a bomb has hit it!

won't let me quote...

Just gas and air - and I bounced on the ball - planned to try water but ran out of time!

 

[holywoodmum]

OK, I've turned the front page in to a spreadsheet - so have earliest, latest, first, last, most popular birthday, lightest and heaviest done.

What should we do, post the categories, and you can reply with answers for any you want to 'enter'?? Actually PM might be easier...

i could have gone worse hwm, there could be a cateorgy for how long did it take you to dtd after labour, but i thought that might be one step too far. I have such a dirty mind sometimes

I will pm you when I am on the main computer, have stolen Brads netbook for two mins, also when you says about babys looking like mummy or daddy, do you want recent pics of mummys and daddys or when they were babies?

Well i'm going to try have a drink tonight, just got to wash my hair and get H ready for bed then I can get the wine flowing....ok, its just lamberini so not really drink...but its something! Not drank for 9months so im sure it will have some affect

You look AMAZING!!! And in the nicest possible way...I hate you Ha ha ha ha! Well done you x

AFM up feeding little miss, she last fed at 9.30pm, she's our gorgeous little elf all snuggled up. Had to go to A&E tonight with Jacob - he fell and banged his head in the conservatory and was really sick within about 2 minutes! By the time I got to hospital he was laughing and giggling away, but didn't want to chance it, fortunately they have a childrens a&e at our hospital (not sure if its common practise?) but he was seen and sent home within the hour. He's fine and dandy playing and giggling away on the way home but it gave us all a shock I tell you!

Hope everyone is ok x

 

[JASMAK]

OK, it is late here, so will do this tomorrow....will you all wait for me??? ...will get a photo of Kelana with her daddy...spitting image if you ask me (and everyone else who has seen them). Also, I will PM my birthday and weight loss. Oh, I will do the sibling age gap too.

 

[Kelly9]

Thanks baby France... i think...

Skyler has a fever tonight not to high but still I feel bad cause he's sick, but everyone at home is

DH is officially on parental leave now for 6 months!

O and we have switched to reuseable diapers, have been using the flip system for about a month now and I love it! So impressed! No leaks since we made the big switch. I am a convert now!
