Sticking Together Crew

[Sun_Flower]

Morning everyone I was SO bored yesterday, called my auntie and told her I had cabin fever and needed to get out of the house, so she picked me up and we went with my Nan to a garden centre to look at Christmas decorations and generally have a look round. Had a nice lunch, went to a couple of other shops, then went to my other aunts house for a chat and a cup of tea (caffeine free coke for me as I'm still off tea) what made me giggle was that my Nan kept asking me if I was 'feeling better and out of the cupboard yet' because she thought we were saying cupboard fever not cabin fever as she didn't know what the expression meant, lol. That kept me entertained most of the day!

Today I've been up since 8am and have -

• put on a load of laundry
• done the dishes
• cleaned the kitchen surfaces
• swept the floors
• mopped the floors
• bleached the sink
• taken out the rubbish
• cleaned the bath, sink, toilet and bathroom surfaces
• swept the bathroom
• mopped the bathroom floor
• tidied the living room
• vacuumed the living room

and now I'm in a heap on the sofa feeling very tired. But I couldn't NOT do it, I woke up and in my head it just all HAD to be done. Now waiting for my changing table to be delivered, then I can set that up and that's another job done

Hope you're all having brilliant weekends

Ummmmmm... nesting much?

Too funny about your aunt-- but nice you were able to get out of the cupboard.

Cold here today. Off to the popcorn party!

 

[truthbtold]

Nesting in full swing lol. Cant wait until my nesting kicks in.

 

[Sun_Flower]

just set up my changing table looks awesome with all the baby's toiletries on it. Going to take some pictures in a minute. PLUS my pram/ travel system has turned up at my mum's house three days early so I'm going over there when she's finished work to go see it. EXCITED MUCH!?!?! lol. Very tired now though!

[AmaryllisRed]

Wow, Rachel, you're just about ready for Eden to arrive, aren't you?
Soooo exciting!!
Hard to believe we'll likely have two more STC babies by Thanksgiving (the 24th)!!
I can't wait to see Macie and Eden!!

 

[cranberry987]

God that makes me tired just reading it. Waiting for any kind of nesting to set in tbh. So far it's manifested itself as me making a list of stuff for dh to do

 

[sspencer99]

yay for nesting

i had a funny five min nearly passed out started shivering tooo i think i must have been low on iron
staying in now not goin to the fireworks everyone that is have a great nite xxx

 

[Sun_Flower]

At my mum's house waiting for the fireworks to start Travel system is gorgeous, just what we wanted. They've stupidly sent us a car seat base instead of an actual car seat though, so I've got to go and get it changed tomorrow.

I'll upload pictures of the travel system and Eden's bedroom either when I get in later, or tomorrow xxx

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Awww, everyone enjoy the fireworks!! What's the occasion?

We have something here called "November Rain" where they choreograph fireworks to music... don't know why... we've never gone because it's just too cold IMO.

 

[cranberry987]

Someone tried to blow up parliament so now we blow shit up to honor him. Or something ^^

We went down to the rugby club for a bit but I had bh from walking/standing so came home. Lame. Bedtime I think.

 

[Sun_Flower]

lol pretty much what Cran said - November the 5th is called Bonfire Night/ Fireworks Night and we have bonfires and fireworks and food and stuff and it's something to do with this person called Guy Fawkes who tried to blow up the houses of parliament years ago on the 5th of November.

I've had a lovely evening, home quite early though because I got tired and wanted to be settled indoors. Eden didn't seem bothered about the fireworks at all, the only time she started wriggling was when I had a burger, so she must have liked the warmth! lol

 

[AmaryllisRed]

Hehe Eden liked the burger!!

I remember now, isn't there a poem about it, like "Remember, remember the 5th of November"? Or am I making that up?

 

[Sun_Flower]

Yup -

Remember remember the 5th of November,
Gunpowder, Treason and Plot
I see no reason, that Gunpowder season
Should never be forgot

here's a bit more about it

Bonfire Night

 

[Traskey]

Wow Rach, that's some nesting let's hope Eden is here too soon x

 

[QueenVic]

Hey Girls,

Hope everyone's having a lovely Sunday!

ANDREA hows it going ??

I am trying to summon the energy to go for a country walk round the block.. then I have a list of things I want to get done in the house to keep me busy

On to single figures tomorrow, eek....!!

 

[QueenVic]

happy 24 weeks jen !!

 

[DrGomps]

Phew, all caught up. Stacey have they done blood work for you? Are you taking iron??

Ericka, sorry to scare you. I am sure your LO will be on time. In this case the baby was rather big.

Jen, HAPPY V Day!! Quite a milestone. How as the popcorn party?

Cran, my little brother was born on the 20th. I hope for your sake your LO is not born on Christmas. He might not like having to share his day... sorry to hear about your car.

Logan, can't wait to see your nursery progress.

Rachel, happy 38 weeks! Cupboard fever! kind of sounds like someone who is stuck in the closet and won't come out. You are definitely nesting. Can't wait to see the pics.

Ysatis, hows the clomid going? Any fun side effects?

Hope you all had a good bonfire day!!

Regarding the time change I doubt I will notice as my schedule is kind of erratic.

AFM, Adjusting to life at home. Going to miss my Mona's she is so good with Josie and all the sleep I got is because of her. Steve is going to have to step it up. Josephine doesn't sleep for very long in her bassinet. She insists on being near us. But I am terrified of sleeping With her. So I stay awake. She is asleep on my chest ATM. Also downloaded Wong sounds and it seems pretty comforting to her.
