September Stars

Couple of years ago sisters were going to be in Australia for Xmas so we had our christmas day early as a family in October . It was great swapping prezzies and having all the turkey and trimmings. Felt like a bonus day as we knew we'd all be doing it again in a few weeks time.
 
blob iv not seen the cake is it on facebook? x

Well been shopping today to get James a new hat for winter and tried him one on and when i lifted it something fell onto his head and it was a massive headlouse!! OMG i have never moved so quick to get it out!! Absolutely disgusting the poor child whose head it came off must have had them for months! I know its difficult and they are so easy to catch but do something about them! RANT over :) xx

Hope everyone is well xx
 
Blob hugs hun I know exactly how you feel about dh being away over Christmas and new year! And I think the cake looks fab!!

Jelly poor jj hope it clears up soon, bless him he seems to always be poorly! Do you have plans for friday??

Laura I hope the sickness passes soon!!

As for me, well we were supposed to be having the boys from Wednesday for half term, she's actually having them part of the holidays for once OMG!! BUT... After years of holding my tongue, after a weekend last weekend with her on the phone being a bitch and trying to change things, then turning up to take the kids from us an hour and a half early because she had plans and was going out, I went to the door where Wayne was trying to tell her she was too early as we were busy.. I said their school clothes were still drying on the line, she was too early and to come back at the right time, she gave me a smug horrible look saying it was nothing to do with me and she has a tumble dryer 'dear'.... I told her in no uncertain terms to (excuse the language) fuck right off as she was not messing us about any more.. It felt goooooood! But now I am never again allowed to see them without Wayne being there because of my threatening behaviour!! ( trust me, if I'd have threatened her I'd have followed through!) so we're not allowed the, until Wayne finishes work on Friday now as I'd be alone with her kids!!! And I'm not allowed to see them for the 6 weeks he's in Jordan so after Sunday next week we won't see them till the 19th December when we pick them up for Christmas!! Stupid cOw.. But it was ok for me to travel a 440 mile weekend to have them when he was away when she was single and wanted a social life! Argh!! Oh well, I'll make sure Wayne texts her each and every time he has to go sit on the loo/ shower/ go for a fag as I'll be alone with them then, maybe she'll come and collect them for his poo breaks!!!
 
Louise - I'd put money on the fact that whilst Wayne is away something will come up that she wants to do and you will have the boys. She can't cope having them for 6 weeks. For Friday got to book appointment at bank boo hiss otherwise free, fancy a catch up? JJ has been ill ever since starting nursery, hoping it will slow down soon as he gains more immunity so he's not sick 24/7.

Lbb - that is rank *yuk*
 
Laura I know how you feel, I'm so so tired and feel wiped out. I'm being sick several times a day and am exhausted, on top of that hollys been poorly and not sleeping well. I'm really struggling with looking after holly all day then working every evening, esp coz I have a 1.5 hour commute each way :( I'm considering going to see the gp and seeing if I can get some time off work... but I dunno. Im sooo tired and feel like crap!! I forgot how hard it was being pregnant!

Louise like jelly said, I'd put money on something coming up and you having them anyway!

Jelly how's the rash?
 
Yes I'd love a catch up if you have some free time! Wayne's working a full day Friday which is unusual.. Friday is normally poets day (piss off early tomorrows Saturday) so usually he'd be home by 12.. I'm free any time x

Aww emzy that's what I'm most worried about. I was so so poorly during my pregnancy I'm worried about coping with that AND a toddler! I've insisted we plan it for when Wayne's here as he was away on course throughout my pregnancy!

I'm sure something will come up and she'll get the boys to phone me but I've decided that unless she speaks to me directly and asks me properly then I will stand my ground and refuse. She did this when Wayne first went to afghan and eventually told Wayne On Xmas day When he phoned to speak to the boys that I could have them.. When I phoned to wish them happy Christmas she barked down the phone 'are you picking them up then or what.. Really rude and arsey.. I can't stand the woman!! I'm not running around on her say so any more!
 
Emzy :hugs: really hope all you preggie ladies feel better soon. Must admit I hated pregnancy symptoms especially when nothing eases it. Could you not speak to work and see if they could do something to help? When my mw wanted to sign me off work I told my boss and they were really accommodating letting me go home in afternoons when tired or work from home etc

My rash has improved loads it's now very dry and bumpy with only small red areas. Be interesting if it's like this tomorrow in our baking hot office (was 31 last week!) or the building work in the office.

Best go to bed dh is leaving at 5.30 tomorrow morning so I have to do nursery drop off and I need my beauty sleep (lots of it lol)
 
Glad its cleared up a bit jelly.

I'm not sure what work could do tbh, I can only work 6-10 because of having holly and they wouldn't let me work from home. It's not so much work that's the prob, the jobs easy, but its going to work on top of everything else if you know what I mean? I'll see what the gp says I think.

Hollys been waking every hour so far and she's obviously not feeling well. She wants cuddles so I keep rocking her on the rocking chair and she goes back to sleep. She won't take her dummy at all, I can't tell if its because of her teeth or her cold. But she always has her dummy for sleep so I think that's why she's waking up! Poor baby x
 
Louise what a nightmare woman she is !

Emzy poor Holly its so frustrating for them when they can't sleep , Layla has started waking again after being so good for so long !

Thanks for the addresses so far ladies , keep them coming x

Im off to London again today another meeting with mums consultant , it's a 4 pm appointment so when we come out it be rush hour , not fun !
 
Lbb- Thats disgusting that parents would try hats on children when they have headlice not nice.
Louise- She sounds like a right piece of work I agree if she does get the boys to ring you to get them stand your ground and not get them till she asks.
Emzy- Poor Holly hope she starts to feel better soon. I know how you feel about the tiredness and a toddler luckily I dont have to go to work or I dont know how I would cope, maybe go and speak to your GP and see what they say.
GG- Hope all goes well with the consultant.
All is good here Ollie is still refusing to walk but suppose it is good for me for now I am getting impatient waiting for him to take his first steps:haha:.
I am feeling super tired all the time and am trying to get a nap on a afternoon with Ollie. Also really fancying food then when I make it I cant eat it at all its a nightmare.
 
OMG thats horrible :shock: LBB and yes its on FB :)

Aww poor Holly :( Rosalie is the same at the moment she can't breath with the dummy in so cries :dohh:


:hugs: to all you pregnant ladies its so so exhausting :hugs:

Louise I'm really ill when pregnant and its no fun with a toddler but more to concentrate on IYKWIM
 
Good Morning all.
Sorry to hear that Holly is poorly and you are suffering with the pregnancy Emzy. x
Louise that woman is a nutter but I'm glad you stood up for yourself, it might teach her that she cannot walk all over you and Wayne.x
LBB, I would have been so grossed out!
FirstBean, I am the same with food. I really fancy something and then when it is there in front of me I really do not want it. At the mo I have a thing for cheese rolls! lol

Well, it is half term week so have my hands full with Chance. Just a boring day here with a trip to get my car sorted at the garage later but I think we're off swimming tomorrow and the cinema on Thursday. DS is a bit of an XBox addict so he is quite content at home for short periods which saves my sanity!

Riley is now walking everywhere and has teeth no's 5 &6 coming through which thankfully are no trouble at all. His new favourite toys are the apples and satsumas from the fruit bowl...well, they do say food should be fun!

Must go, stinky nappy to change. Take care everyone. x
 
Hi girls

I'm currently in a&e with Holly as she managed to get hold of the bottle of anbesol liquid and somehow open it and tip it in her mouth! I'm not entirely sure how much she drank as a lot of it went down her front but she defo drank some as she spluttered and coughed! She seems fine but even that's hard to say as she's been poorly with her cold and teeth. shes currently playing with all the toys in the waiting area and I'm sure she's fine but best to be on safe side.

as for me, went to doctors and got tablets for sickness abd signed me off for a week.

x
 
We are back home now and she is fine. They said given that there was only about 1/4 of the bottle left the most she could have consumed was less than half of the amount they would worry about, so they checked her over and said we could go home. She ate her lunch as usual so I think she's fine! Still won't take her dummy, I assume as her nose is a bit blocked or maybe it's her tooth still. If she doesn't take it I'm just gonna take it away and use this as an opportunity to get rid of it!
 
Oh god Emzy :hugs: huge hugs it's so scary tabs got floor cleaner and I was so scared :hugs:
 
I would take that opportunity :lol:

So pleased she's ok hon :hugs:
 
Glad everything is okay with Holly. And you get a bit of a rest now you have a week off and hope the tablets help.
 
GG - hope your mums appointment went well :hugs:

Emzy glad you got signed off, poor Holly glad she didn't do any harm.... Think you deserve an early night

Well JJ has got a high temp again with his barking cough so going to try and book a doc appointment again. The thing us he's happy playing and moving around so feel a fraud for taking him to the doctors but I just want to make sure he's alright after weeks of being ill.

How much milk are lo's having now? JJ has a morning and evening bottle but sometimes his morning one gets missed and he doesn't seem bothered so wondered if I should drop it?
