Moms of April/May/June 2010 babies thread! :)

Hello everyone :wave: sorry I haven't been around for ages. Our house move went well but the house needed so much more work than we thought. Every little job seems to take a long time, for instance we thought we would chuck some stuff in the loft only to discover that not only was it not boarded it was also still filled with a load of crap! It will look lovely when it's done.

I have so many pages to try and catch up with you all! I did notice you got a BFP Emera that is brilliant news, I am sure that the timing will never be quite right but by the time he/she arrives all that will be forgotten.

Oliver is cruising along furniture, using anything that moves as a baby walker and races round the place with them. He has just started to show an interest in walking outside holding onto our hands. He seems to be concentrating on his talking and he says mumma, add or adda, tickle tickle (which was his first word other than mummy or daddy), hiya, no (which is accompanied by a vigorous shake of his head), at (which we think he means that as he motions at the thing he wants or makes a mmmm sound) and has just started saying daddad to his Grandad. He seems to understand lots too now which is great. He love being outside and spends much of his time trying to get the front door open, which is why it's always locked :lol: or standing at the living room window pulling the net curtains out of the way (the windows are pretty low down) I guess some neighbours have noticed him there as they look each time they walk past and give him a wave if he is there, either that or they are really nosey and look in everytime anyway. :lol:

Hope you are all well.
 
muddles - welcome back :wave: owen is the same with the net curtains. we have works going on in our estate and unfortunately the portacabins the workmen use for their breaks are outside our living room window :grr: owen and erin like to stand on the sofa and shout hello at them :haha: with they could say 'piss off' instead tbh as they are so noisy! :rofl: owen says 'awoww' for hello but he's definately saying it.

well this afternoon dylan has a party in mcdonalds and my mum is going to stay with owen and erin whilst i take him.

last night we were looking on the internet at deals in portugal to go for 5 nights when dan has a long weekend. there's a 4* hotel with. it's an apartment with 2 bedrooms and a kitchen and it's about £740 with breakfast included for 5 nights for the 5 of us. it's probably about a 4hr drive from here. here's a link if you fancy a look. do you think it looks good?

Hi muddles glad you are ok and the house move went ok - what is wrong with people!

Maybe that site looks great and really makes me want to go on holiday.

H&F - hope you are feeling better soon hun.

Modo - hope the lawyer gets the ball rolling and sorts it out.

How can I be so shattered from two days work?? Off for five days now but the kitchen wall is coming down on Monday, I'm dreading the mess but glad to get on with it.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend planned. My DH has to work tomorrow and then my Mum is up on Sunday, haven't seen her for a few weeks, but it's our first day off all together in a month, so mixed feelings xx

frufru - big BUMS to lost posts :kiss::flower:

mork - How are you getting on with nursery/childminder hunting? x

Alex has really got into books over the last couple of weeks. I bought him a little pack of 5 roary the racing car books which he has never seen on TV but he is obsessed! We have to read them over and over and sadly after Tree and lyra his new words are "cici" and "Martha" which are two characters form the books! no mummy, no daddy but a toy car name in a book :haha::haha:
he does say "ahhh" when he gives me a cuddle though and he is such a lovely cuddly boy :cloud9:

have any of you taken your babies/toddlers to the dentist yet? :shrug:
 
amy - dylan is the only one who's gone to the dentist of my brood! bless alex with roary. dylan was obsessed with roary at one point.

frufru - :grr: to post loss! so annoying :growlmad:

tomorrow we're off to aqualand again :) danny got some back money so we're not as tight for these last 2 months that i'm off after all. and i got a letter saying that i get paid from 19th-31st august inclusive as holiday pay for this year :thumbup: we just had a chinese for dinner. so much for the diet :rofl: i am just waiting for the:laundry: to finish so i can:hangwashing: before bed.

:cry:

At least its reasonably sensitive....
 
Oh emera I'm so sorry again hun!! you're right though it was a nice right up xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Oh Emera :hugs: :hugs:

It is a nice write up, he sounds like a really wonderful young boy :hugs:
 
Thanks everyone, he was a lovely boy, we were all very proud of him. :)

Funeral is on Thursday, i'm hoping it will give me some closure, although i know it will take a long to for me to feel like i can accept it. I'm fine overall though, i just have my little moments where i let myself feel sad.

Did another test today :haha: the 2 i did on Thursday were very faint lines, although OH could see them too, so i knew i wasn't seeing things :D Anyway, much darker line today :thumbup: I just have the same crappy non stop period pains as i had with Roh, and i'm starting to feel very hormonal :wacko: Poor OH :haha: Also i've been feeling faintly nauseous, which i never had last time, i'm hoping i get to skip the morning sickness again! Anyway i take it all as a good sign, as with the MC i had, i never had any symptoms except no period.

If i've got my dates right, which is definately open for debate, then i'm due somewhere around what would have been my little brother's 13th birthday, at the start of March, what strange timing.

:hugs: to you all!
 
Emera your symptoms sound just like when I was pregnant with Oliver, the niggly pains are horrid :wacko: All worth it mind you!! The timings are strange, but such a blessing - a new baby will give all the family something so wonderful at what will be a really tough time. How are your Dad and Step Mum doing? I will be thinking of you all on Thursday :hugs:

I love your avatar pic BTW, Roh is so gorgeous!!

We have had a lovely day, we went to the Village Fayre in my mum and dads village and then went to a BBQ at our friends house, they live right in the village so we always end up there after the village fayre, they are best friends with my parents and they all go on holiday together and stuff, I went to school with their daughter. It was lovely, liver had a great time, it was just a really nice chilled out day :)
 
emera - i agree that the new baby will be a source of joy at a difficult time :hugs: my uncle passed away 4weeks before dylan was born. he was my mum's only sibling & we were very close to him. it was awful but dylan was a great distraction, though obviously it was very sad that he never got to meet him :hugs:

sarah - sounds like you had a lovely day :)

we went to aqualand again yesterday & my in laws came too. the kids had a great time again and on the way back we stopped for some tapas :munch: yum! not sure what we're doing today!
 
owen is sleeping really badly again :( last night he went to bed at 11pm as we got back late and he'd slept in the car. he woke at 1,3,4 at 4 i was so tired i took him to bed and bf him and he was latched on all night so got no sleep as i cant sleep whilst he feeds any more :nope: any ideas?
 
Emera: I am so sorry again :hugs: As everyone said the article is well written. He sounds like such a lovely boy :cry:
Your symptoms sound like mine with Bobby although I didn't get the nausea till around 9 weeks.
 
Maybe I have no suggestions I'm afraid, I'm so sorry that Owens sleep is still bad :( Does he have a set routine before bed? How does he nap in the day?

Oliver and I have had a lovely morning walking around the car boot sale in the lovely sun :thumbup: We bought for Oliver: three pairs of shorts, some linen short dungarees, a shirt with poppers underneath like a vest, all for 50p each, all from next and look like new :shock: And for me (I normally never see anything for me so its a miracle :haha:) two really gorgeous summer dresses by an American designer for three quid each, two Betty Jackson wrap dresses, some Jasper Conran jeans, a Betty Jackson jacket, a silk skirt, some white linen trousers from Coast and a white wrap top from Coast, all for £18!!!!! The Betty Jackson dresses are a bit longer that I'd normally wear so I might take them up, but they are lovely, and linen so nice and cool. I was going to go and buy some summery dresses so I've saved a fortune! And when I got home and looked half the stuff still has its tags on, the woman must have been a bit of a shopaholic :haha: I love finding someone like that though, she was really well spoken, had a really nice car and everything she was selling was immaculate.

Right, I think its time for lunch :)
