Thanks girls, I too hope I feel better soon; Getting rather fed up with feeling crappy now... Still only on day 3 of antibiotics, hope next week shows much improvement...

coor stinky baby to change! Catch you later...
 
Afternoon girls. Hope everyone is having a nice weekend? I had an old friend over on Friday and lets just say rather alot of alcohol was consumed lol. We drank a bottle of wine, followed by a bottle of Disaronno! Sat up chatting non-stop til 3am. And then I was on a night last night lol. So absolutely shattered. Hey ho. Luckily James is having a nap, giving me chance to check my emails and catch up on here hehe.
 
littlekitten ~ Love it, hoping to have a night like that when we go down to meet my sisters boat come in... So looking forward to seeing her, after all the crap since she's been away. I've so MISSED her...

Hope your weekend has been good...
 
Argh, my post! Darn accidental delete! Been a long day, off to try and get madam to bed as its an early start tomorrow, why does Monday come around so fast? She is so into gettng ALL the toys out to play with, sheesh its bedlam here when its time to pack it all away. She used to be good at putting one away before playing with the next but not anymore it seems!

LK: sounds like a fab night although the night shift after isn't as appealing! Glad you had a good time.

Esift: When do you get to see your sis again? :flower:
 
Morning all :wave: oooops . . . afternoon all! :flower:
 
Afternoon Kte - and anybody else who's around (so few of us these days :cry: - where did they all go? Even the long-timers have gone off the radar - Aimee-Lou, Chaos, FloraBean only rarely).

Hope good weekends for all. Ours was lovely. We did everything we said we would (apart from we missed out the soft play at Meadowhall as it was getting towards nap time and Monty looked more ready for a ride home in the car than a jump-around on the bouncy castle). Plus as a bonus a close friend texted me Saturday night to ask if we were around on Sun, as they were randomly up this way. So that was great - we met up with them for walk and lunch on Sun morning. Sadly, the nice day had a sad story attached to it - one of the reasons she wanted to meet was to tell me she'd just had a M/C at 6 weeks. They've been TTC child #2 for 2years so this was a really big blow to her. She's not young and child #1 took 3years I think to conceive, so she's very much in the 'it won't happen' frame of mind. It hit me quite hard when she told me - it reminded me pretty heavily of my own M/C - totally different circumstances (I was in hosp, had scans, was in such bad pain that they gave me IV pain relief etc. whereas she was at home and had no scans and had no pain at all) - but even so I got back a load of memories that I hadn't had for years.

Ho hum. Let's lift the mood a little. Monty in chirpy mood today. Daddy's with him today as I'm working. They've gone out for a pram walk now for afternoon nap - OH will be soaked as it's peeing down here. Monty has started walking away really quickly when you try to tickle him - it's almost but not quite a run. Shocking how fast he can move!

Okey doke, better go. And if any of you are reading but not writing, drop us a quick hello to let us know you're all well. xx
 
Morning!

Well, not one teething baby but 3 teething babies in the house today :wacko: All getting molars- ouch! Emma's working on 3 atm (between the 3 babies, there are 7 teeth cutting through) and I didn't realize 2 of them were so close to the surface last night when we went to bed or I would have drugged her up :haha: It was a long sleepless night last night :coffee:

Anyhoo, not much else going on here today. Weekend was pretty uneventful too so not much to report there either. I hope everyone is well :hugs:
 
Kaites, ouch! Hope the little buggars come through ASAP. Poor Emma, she's been through a lot lately. :hugs:
 
Oooo hope they cut through quick enough for Emma Kaites :hugs:

Colsy: Sorry to hear about your friend and it bringing lots of feelings / thoughts back :hugs: When Chloe has her giddy moments she runs from one end of the room to that other with big saucer eyes, it's amazing how fast they can go now sometimes! I noticed Flora has put on facebook via her mobile she isn't online today but saying she was ill too so I sent her a hug.

I was quite, well, very, pleased with Chloe at the weekend. We walked two streets away to the shops and back (the sun £9.50 holiday promotions are back so we were off to get a paper!). I took her reigns with us but she held my hand beautifully with no fuss. We even had Bandit (one of our mogs) following us to the and shop she wasn't too distracted by him. :cloud9:

Oh and no inlaws last weekend again :happydance: and Chloe is stopping over at my parents this coming weekend, happy but freaked at the same time as I will miss her!
 
Urgh I don't even know what day it is right now without checking my phone! My shift pattern is killing me right now. Did Sunday Monday Tuesday night, Thursday Friday days, Saturday night, then back on nights tonight tomorrow and Wednesday! Absolutely shattered and just can't wait til Thursday. Off to try to nap for an hour before work.
 
I'm still here, but we've all caught a silly cold n cough bug n looking after an I'll n teething baby swell as feeling skanky myself ain't been fun, lol! We're on the mend though. I'm on my phone but seriously unmotivated at the mo with no energy n coming off a 7 day mega period! Feel like my body hates me right now!!! How's u all doing?

Flora: Do you get regualr AF now with BF or is it hit and miss? I had done really well over Christmas and NY not eating loads of junk but then AF hit me this week and, ugh!, all the hard work undone! TBH I just wasn't in the mood for all that food, I ate but not overly ate but this week I have had serious munchies! I washed my hair and it felt greasy still etc. . . AF can be mean! Although AF and ill is much much worse! :hugs:

Today is going so slow, well this week has, same as the end of last week, as soon as the clock hits 2pm it just draggs :nope: At least I get a lift tonight, I had one last night too, I normally only get lifts Wed - Fri. Its nice as I get more time with Chloe before bed time :D She was really giddy last night, was nice to just play but she didn't get to bed until 8pm . . . how on earth to I get her to revert back to 7/7.30?!
 
Morning All!

Kte ~ My sister's not due back until March! Seems such a long way away but yet, seems as though it's going to come around so fast.:wohoo:.. Guess that happens because we've so much to still do... Glad you're finding the inner strength to deal with all life has thrown at you:hugs:. Send your sister my empathy, CC was so worth all the urgh from my body... Not too long now... Count Down!!!:thumbup:

Florabean ~ Hope you start feeling much better soon, I've another 2 days of my anti-biotics, still run down but feeling as though I can move and breath! Such a bonus...:hug:

Social worker has been intouch to let us know that OH Mum has to sell her house, good luck to OH Bro & wife, they're dealing with it all; still not dealing with stuff as a family.:muaha: I couldn't get OH Mum to go to the house, they've found that she has got some underlying mental health issues! Finally...:dohh:

Still in the process of trying to get our house in order etc, gosh! I've filled my bin already an we've a week to go before collection...:brat:

Funny though, my life has become so much easier and OH is much happier, love life is getting back on track:sex:; we're starting to bicker much less and I feel are almost back to normal...:cloud9:

CC & DS are much happier and are both laughing more, just shows how we are does affect the kids.:nope:.. CC is trying now to put her trousers back on after pulling them off...:rofl:
 
Afternoon!

Eswift: Glad things are back on track :hugs: Bless CC with her trousers! Chloe took her slipper off yesterday and put it next to her foot looking all confused, she knows what she wants to do but just can't . . ! Hopefully March will be here before you know it but with everything done and hasn't been stressful! :flower:


Well, managed to get Chloe off to sleep at 7.45 so managed to claw back 15 mins. I don't think she is as keen to go to bed due to a) missing us and b) having the bed moved to a lower position. She is such a giddy bum in an evening now so we are playing right up until bed time, whereas before she would start to drop and give me the tired signs . . . goodness knows how long we would be up if I waited for those now! Plus, to settle her it used to be PJ's, brush teeth, kiss Dad, in bedroom, soft lights with 2x stories and a cuddle then bed and asleep. Now it's the same with the added extra of me lying on the floor next to her with my hands poked through the bars rubbing her tummy. I don't mind but it's just not like her iyswim.
 
Heyy... Haven't posted in here for ages! How is everyone?

Isaac is still obsessed with Winnie The Pooh and he's taken to switching the TV off all the time in my grandparents house... luckily my TV is out of his reach lol! He's a complete monster at the moment lol!
 
Howdy :)

Just a quickie from me- just waiting for water to boil for pasta with dinner :thumbup: Argh, what a week! Nothing in particular- just going ridiculously slow combined with the new kid throwing the whole daycare balance out of whack/everyone teething. It's insane how much one kid can upset the whole rhythm we had going on- thankfully hubby is around more during the day, so he's helping out a lot, suiting kids up for playing in the snow, taking Emma off my hands for a few hours in the afternoon, etc. Only 2 more days of this insanity til the weekend...

Flora- hope you are feeling better :hugs:

Kte- hope Chloe's sleeping gets back on track for you :flower:
 
*creeps in*

:hi:

Just tried to have a read back many pages :wacko:

Hope everyone had a reasonable holiday season. Im slowly settling into life with 2. N & J are fabulous.

Kte I succumbed and bought the Icandy. The shop said they could order me one and I said I want the one you have in and I think she realised how desperate I was for a double. I said ive panned a day of going to every baby shop if you cant supply and low and behold I got my chassis, seats and cot and my footmuffs/change bag/ parasols should be a week.
