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

Hmmmmm....we are still waking in the middle of the night!!!!! You? x
 
Modo - My Emily didnt say any words or try to say any until she was 18 months so dont worry as she was chattering away with the rest of them at playschool :hugs:

sarah - raarrrrrr :growlmad: what a thoughtless woman texting at 6am!!! Oliver was obviously excited about his trains and wanted to get up early to play with them :winkwink: Re: the sleep training I would say its much easier to do it when they are still in a cot.

maybe - I loved your pics, Erin will have had the coolest hair :) Owen is looking really grown up too, they all looked gorgeous :cloud9: I hope its not all too stressful being back at work, I am dreading it becasue I know I'll have to be like a machine to make sure all the normal stuff gets done on top of working :dohh:

I had Gabriel this morning, he's nearly 1 now and just properly crawling. It was fun looking after two little tinkers! Alex was gorgeous today, he sat and ate his breakfast with a spoon and did so well! He was really sweet sharing his toys with Gabriel and he's going through an ultra cuddly stage where he kisses and cuddles everyone!
 
emera - i can't believe you're so far into your pregnancy already. don't you find you forget you're pregnant a lot? that happened to me! with a LO and a job it's a wonder you get a minute to yourself eh?!!
 
amy - owen is rubbish feeding himself. i only give him dry cereals as it all ends up on the floor. i cant put anything in a bowl as he'll lob it off the high chair :dohh: maybe i should've done BLW! i still spoonfeed him though he does eat finger food on his own.
 
I'll be quick as i'm shattered!

Maybe - Erin looks sooo cute! :flower:

Modo - Bobby is sure to catch up in no time! Almost all of Roh's words are variations of "Daddy" in some way or another, it takes a bit of deciphering sometimes, and like Sarah said, it seemed to happen overnight, from da-da ba-ba to words. :shrug: The latest word is "bappy" we are still trying to work out what it means, top contender at the moment is "nappy" but we aren't sure...

Sarah - Text at 6am ?!?! Seriously, some people have issues :shock: Poor you with your bad night, i'm glad you both managed some extra sleep though :) My SIL often texts at 7am, but i think thats acceptable, plus she has a 6 week old baby, so 7am is practically mid-morning for her :haha: If it helps, none of us had much sleep last night either :hugs:

Amy - Gabriel looks adorable! Alex too, although he's so sweet i feel like i hardly need to tell you! :flower:

Well, i'm pooped! As i said to Sarah , none of us really got any sleep last night, poor Roh has a cold, and he was just coughing and coughing the whole night. I felt sooo sorry for him, he just wanted to be asleep, but kept waking himself up coughing :( I kept picking him up for a cuddle and to rub his back to try and ease things, and he kept climbing down off my lap and trying to climb back into his cot! I had to go to work today, and so now i'm really tired. I'm still all awake though, as we had a rep from a doors and windows company come over, as we want new front and back doors, and he didn't leave until 9pm. OH decided to sign a contract and everything :dohh: So now i'm here trying to ignore him agonising over bad reviews on the internet :nope: Ah well, i'm sure it will all be fine, and if not, well its a years worth of savings down the drain. Honestly OH can be so impulsive :dohh: I don't really care that much, as long as we have new doors before winter, as the ones we've got now are so drafty!

It was our wedding anniversary yesterday, we went out for a nice meal, and OH bought me flowers, lovely :)
 
Poor Roh :hugs: I hope he's feeling better soon! What company did you go for for the doors? It was hard when we got our windows done, its so much money to trust a company with!

7am isn't too bad for a text, esp from family . . . . to make matters worse my bridezilla was texting to say did I get an email that she only sent last night! Seriously :grr:

Maybe I hope you have nice kids in your classes!!

Amy Oliver is very cuddly at the moment too and kisses - its sooooo cute! He always kisses with his mouth wide open though :haha: He blows kisses too now . . . . the stuff I teach him :dohh: :haha:

Its SO windy here, its been like it all day, brrrrr!! I heard the patio set blow over earlier and I think its taken part of the fence down but there is no way I'm going running about the garden sorting it out, I'm staying in the warm!
 
Emera Happy Wedding Anniversary for yesterday! How many years? It was our 4th this year . . . . its gone SO fast!
 
Sarah - It was 8 years for us this year! :shock: I actually had to check the year we got married i was so freaked out! :haha:
The company we are using are called Dunraven, they are quite a big, but fairly local company (south wales) They weren't the cheapest, but it looked good quality. All the bad reviews are about their hard sell tactics for the most part, which to be honest, i didn't agree with. Yes, the guy was a salesman, but he wasn't over the top or pushy. It was OH who started negotiating and asking what his best price was if we signed now, etc. :dohh: Anyway, its slightly terrifying, as its a lot of money, and you don't really know what you are getting until its all installed, but the deposit is small enough that we could afford to lose it. I just want nice new non-drafty doors :haha:

The weather is bloody awful here too! We have a 200 year old beech tree in our garden, its taller than our 5 story building, its currently going mental, and the rain is hammering down. Brrr! :cold: I'm actually contemplating putting the heating on! Think i'll just lie here and doze off to the Great British Bake Off! :haha:
 
Haha, I was just thinking about the heating too! I popped a jumper on :haha:

We went with a local company in the end too, for the windows. We did the same thing and saw some crappy reviews online when we'd paid the deposit etc. But they were actually really good, I'm sure you'll be fine :thumbup:

I think I'll be off to bed soon, Oliver is stirring . . . . . . I have 100 place cards I was hoping to make tonight but it looks like that will be tomorrows job instead.
 
sarah - good luck with the place cards! i have just finished doing my music registers for the whole school ready for next week! am pooped!

emera - sorry roh's poorly. hope he's better soon. glad you had a nice anniversary. it was our 7th in july
 
maybe - Alex used to be like that with cuttlery, I dont think its becasue we did BLW - he just wants to be like Emily and Holly and copies them :winkwink: normally he makes a huge mess but today I gave him a different spoon! Maybe its all about the spoon?? :shrug: :haha: he's good with a fork too.

emera - Poor Roh, hope you have a better night :hugs: I think sometimes its good to be impulsive - kerry takes so long to make decisions about money and reading into things that invariably we never get it done! I've wanted new bedroom curtains for the last 3 years :dohh:

sarah - we;'ve got howling winds here too, the roads are covered with bits of tree! How are your chickens??

We've decided to try to wait until october for heating now we're on a reduced budget. I've been trying to find a source of wood offcuts for our log burning stove but I havent had any luck. I've tried freecycle and local checks but nothing. wood and coal all add up :wacko: I need to buy more fleecey clothes :cold:
 
Amy you'll have to buy those fleecy adult baby grows from Primark - buy Kerry one and I'm sure he'll cough up for the heating :haha:

I think the chickens are okay . . . . I can't see them in the dark but they should be in their little house. I'm a bit worried that the fence is down though as they might escape out of the garden :dohh:

Its Steve's birthday on Sunday and I have no idea what to buy him. I can't spend too much, but I just have no idea!
 
:haha: sarah my sil bought me one of the fleecy adult baby gros from primark and it's so warm but so unsexy :rofl: good luck finding a pressie for steve. how about a perfume? danny wants the new lacoste one but i've not smelt it yet

amy was it a special spoon? i read somewhere that from 18months babies get better at feeding themselves as their muscles or ligaments or something like that get stronger/harder!

in bed now and owen is stirring :( need some :sleep:
 
hahahahahaha, Kerry in a pink fleece babygrow :haha: hope the chickens are tucked up safe in their little house! Wow it seems like yesterday you were saying that about Steve! This year has flown! I find it gets harder every year! Its kerry's bday on the 26th and I will be stumped too :dohh:
 
maybe - no just one of the ones the girls used when they were little! The spoon bit was smaller than the one I used to give him :shrug: hope you get some sleep :hugs:
 
Maybe I find Oliver is much better with a fork that a spoon :thumbup: He's okay with yoghurt etc that sticks to the spoon but cereal would never get into his mouth :haha: He's lazy though, even though we did BLW he gets lazy after a while and just gives me the spoon and opens his mouth :haha:

Steve has so much aftershave . . . . he's a nightmare because if he wants something he just buys it. I'd never risk buying him clothes as he's so tricky, anything he needs for work he buys and gets paid for, argh he's so tricky! I don't know where to start! He's getting a Thomas cake from Sainsburys, I need to go buy that on Saturday :haha: And I think I'll order this from Amazon from Oliver. . .
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Thomas-Eng...8351/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1315349073&sr=8-1
It looks cute :haha:
 
OH has one of those fleecy adult romper suits from Primark :haha: He begged me for one. He looks like a total idiot :rofl:

He loves getting up, putting it on and then getting Roh up and putting him in a babygro too, then they both come and jump on me to wake me up....boys! :dohh:

Right, night! :sleep:
 
OMG . . . . Emera you've inspired me . . . . maybe I should buy Oliver and Steve matching fleecy baby grows for Steve's birthday :rofl: :rofl:
 
sarah did you purchase said matching babygros? :rofl:

i'm so tired i feel dizzy :wacko: my friend came over and we discussed wedding music as she's asked me to play for her wedding in october and we had a catch up. now trying to look for resources on informal letter writing as i am teaching that for english next week. thankfully it's a 4 day week as it's gib national day on saturday so we have the monday off in leu :thumbup:

hope you are all well :hugs:
