Mayhem Babies! May 2011 mummies and babies

[heyyady]

I have a mountain of presents to wrap- a bigger mountain of laundry to do- the sink is full (and then some) of dishes- must set my hair in curls- have to get everything ready for going out for the evening- and honestly? I'm plunked in my chair watching White Christmas and posting here! I just can't be bothered with it all this morning Oh well, maybe after the girls wake up from their little nap

Brandi- is that your house???

New- hope you got enough done to not get an earful from your mom Here's hoping you can get away and see OH for a few

Harvey- I want to see pictures of Aaron in the snowman/santa outfit his sisters undoubtedly got for him!

 

[BrandiCanucks]

No, it's not my house. It's a house here in town though.

 

[Wiggler]

I have the flat to myself for about an hour!! OH just took the kids out (although said he wouldnt unless Dylan was in the buggy ) and he is wearing Bethany

Time to relax I think

 

[new_to_ttc]

oh what did you do with your spare time hun???

Heyy have you made a start yet?

I think i got more than enough done lol still bits of laundry but arghh Im running a home not a laundry service lol

My mum took Joshua out for half an hour earlier so i popped out and got him the Nerf gun he wants from his brother I also got my mum a jumper off one of the boys, and I accidently bought myself 2 coats! lol The only coat I own I bought 2 years ago, and its when I was at my biggests and it seriously is too big for me and uncomfortable, but coats are just too pricey and spending on me is never justifable, but these were in the sale, 70% off down to £20 each!!! I couldnt decide between 2 very different styles so I bought them both, was going to let my mum see them and take 1 back but I really like them both so I might get a coat off each of the boys for christmas I'll have to think about it lol I shouldnt have found and tried on the 2nd coat, they only had size 8s and 12s and my head said no way would I fit in a soze 12 coat - but tried it on and I did and I liked it arghhhhhhh (first one was a medium so more like a 12-14 i think lol)

Just dropped the laundry soap. In the machine. Upside down. AND OPEN Then when trying to wash myself up had the faucet running in the kitchen and didn't realize it was running onto a baking sheet that was very effectively redirecting the water from the sink to the counter and the floor. Oh and I managed to break the only pair of scissors I have in the house while wrapping my FIRST gift. Arg!!!!!!!! And people want to know why I have event anxiety! (did I mention that through creating a bubble room in my laundry room and making it rain in my kitchen that the girls are SCREAMING bloody murder because I left the room? Yep. They're having one of THOSE days )

 

[heyyady]

Holy hell. it's going to take 4 washes just to get all this soap out of the clothes!

 

[new_to_ttc]

oh no Heyy!! nightmare!!! Go on strike hun, i would lol

 

[heyyady]

I have made myself a list of 8 things to be done. I have 7 hours. If I can find a way to stay on task I have hope Will be prioritizing as I go though, since I know all 8 will not get seen to! The big kids are just going to have to help out, especially with the tiny ones, there's no other way- And bethy is so sick I may have to squeeze in a trip to urgent care

 

[new_to_ttc]

heyy seriously woman.. put you and your LOs first hun, housework will wait, santa doesnt mind laundry or mess! And tomorrow if you all have to stay home then so be it, people have to understand you are juggling your maximum load I hope Bethy gets well quickly hun xxx

 

[mummy3]

Oh no poor Bethy I'm so sorry its going pear shaped there heyy I agree with new though hun, dont push yourself too hard and concentrate on the kids

New, you are wonder woman, pics of the coats?

I put up with MIL on skype earlier so hubbys being a great mood, cleaning and cooking er sausages I believe and he did all the night wakenings

Brandi, those haunting programmes scare the crap out of me, make me jump at the slightest sound for a good week after watching them, but they are good Love the videos hun!

Wiggler, enjoy your relaxing

24, sorry you have the lurgy hun, hope its gone by tomorrow

Harvey, pics of Aaron please and remember some of Harvey opening his gifts!!

 

[heyyady]

Pretty sure Bethy has bronchitis. She gets it every year around this time. just really sucks it's Christmas weekend.

There is NO backing out of tomorrow unless we all wake up puking or delirious fevers

And I have managed to piss away an hour sitting here playing music for the girls and then getting them to nap :/

 

[mummy3]

Anyway you could be puking then? Or would they come round and inspect you really are puking?

 

[BrandiCanucks]

So Mike's mom dropped by yesterday with gifts from his sister...the bitch who tried to beat me in the parking lot. She, surprisingly, bought one for Anberlin and labelled it from Aunt...

So, I sent her a message saying thank you and mentioned that I hope we could eventually get over our differences, even if only for Mike's sake, and she wrote back to "Shut the eff up, you stupid little bitch."

That'll teach me.

 

[mummy3]

Brandi What a horrible woman!

 

[Inge]

hiya! Saw my mum yesterday and today. She got us a Christmas card and held Leos hand when he cried She doesnt show emotion so thats good for her. So I went to asda last night and got some bits for her and my brother. MUm got some smelly body butters and I was so jealous as I was wrapping them There a caramel smelling lotion James got a best of WWE dvd 19hours long so he should be kept quiet for a while. Hes 15 and I lvoe WWE so want him to get into it too
I still have the in laws gifts to wrap urgh need to get on!

 

[mummy3]

Thats nice she's trying with Leo, hows the situation with her and your brother now hun? Have fun wrapping!

 

[Inge]

shes still awkward. She was telling me and OH how she had a stroke and didnt bother to go to hospital she makes up illnesses for attention and wev been told in the past by her doctors theres nothing wrong with her and its all in her mind
James is ok, having a tutor to help with schooling and hopefully going to college in september not sure what he wants to do yet. Im just going to nod and say "yes" and agree when she comes up with crazy things cos theres nothing I can do (tried getting her help with social services but nothing comes of it) So Il just go along with it and let her see Leo when we are around her part of town and keep her involved. Just annoys me so much when she lies and thinks it ok to do so

 

[mummy3]

Thats brilliant James is off to college! Sounds like you're having a very hard time with all of it hun Just remember you know whats real and try to rise above it

 

[harveydog]
