Things I cannot say out loud....

[BabyBoo36]

He cried both last night and this am, and said sorry. I told him it's just words, that he's said it before, and still nothing's changed, and that anyone can say sorry. I told him 'd rather be alone with her, than in a dead end marriage resenting him in 20 years. I also reminded him I've walked out on a marriage and survived before, and have no doubt I can do it again if need be. I think that's what shocked him the most - the realisation that I can, and will go it alone if I have to. I heard him telling Pud he was sorry and he loves her over the monitor (he didn't know I was there), he's fed her a bottle AND breakfast this am, and came to Tiddly Om Pom's with us, so I don't know....

My OH thinks he is the first person to struggle with looking after LO and I swear last night he was looking for a medal or something..... yeah I haven't been sat on my arse doing SFA throughout mat leave

To the woman training me - FFS get over yourself, yes you are not an awful photographer but jeez woman you're nothing special! Deflate the head a little ok?? And stop deleting my pictures so that you can take more! Mine were fine thank you very much, I am not a bad photographer myself!
Also, no, the poor woman had only just given birth, she was clearly a mess, sat in just knickers holding a towel to her chest to hide her modesty, I am NOT going to make her more uncomfortable and spend another 15 minutes in the delivery room taking pictures when I can just go back in an hour to give her some time to rest and have a cuppa! No wonder we get given a bad name with people like you jumping on new mums! And pushing a midwife out of another room so you can get everything done so you can go home early?? Christ.........

 

[BabyBoo36]

On a separate note - Pud, I'm very proud that you can now crawl on your handies and kneesies, but please learn to go forwards instead of backwards. I'm getting a little tired of pulling you out from behind the sofa where you keep getting yourself wedged.....

It's also very sweet that you keep babbling at the baby in the glass door, but it's YOU sweetie!

 

[Lettuce]

Babyboo, that sounds good, just keep reminding him you can do it alone.
And LOL at freya going backwards, Jen done that for ages, then one day she was off and we've been chasing her around ever since!
Emmy isn't she just so far up her own ass?! Are you goin to enjoy the job once she's gone tho? I hope so.
Hey, what do you do if the baby's ugly?!

Jenny, stop getting away from me! And the radiator is not a drum kit...

 

[Emmy1987]

Definitely going to enjoy it once I'm on my own I think. Lol if the baby's ugly I'll put a toy or a big hat on it although no even slightly uglies yet! One awful name so far poor kid!

 

[Natsku]

to all of you!

To OH: Who the fuck would hold a hot poker at the height of a baby's head?!?! Poor Maria

 

[Lettuce]

oh I'm terrible at keepin a straight face at babies names!

"oh rumplestilkin? After the film? Oh, how.... Interesting!"

hope Maria is ok nats.

 

[BabyBoo36]

I used to get that because if Pud had been a boy, we liked the name Euan. We used to get "Freya, that's lovely. Euan!!! Oh, er, that's unusual........" It's not that bloody unusual!!

 

[Lettuce]

Euan? That's not unusual!
I wanted to call Jenny Fagin, or kermitt if she was a boy.

I wanted Flynn's middle name to be "danger" to assist in future chat up lines, I got vetoed tho, they wouldnt let me have the conga to leave the registry office at my wedding either, dh an his mum are such spoilsports!!
I've had a few people saying mthat Flynn is an unusual name, dh's ban was very vocal that she didn't like it but most people were surprised it wasn't more unusual, I wanted to call him kal-el after superman.

What's happened nat? Hope Maria's ok.

I made awesome pasta for tea, Flynn smiled all the way through tea and clapped when he'd finished! He's never managed a proper clap before! Also we have tooth number two!!

 

[Emmy1987]

Poor Maria

Great.... my trainer is ill so tomorrow I'm on my own... with no real idea of the paperwork.... or what order to do things in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

 

[BabyBoo36]

Euan? That's not unusual!
I wanted to call Jenny Fagin, or kermitt if she was a boy.

Tanya - I had my entire wedding party, all the hotel reception staff and the waiters doing the conga to "The Benny Hill Theme" at the end of my wedding, thanks to my nutcase DJ (who opened the night do in a black catsuit and knee high pink PVC boots, and ended it in a 70's catsuit complete with orange afro and white platforms! ). Some members of a different wedding party asked if they could join in!

 

[Ozzieshunni]

Driver's License: Where are you? Please make yourself known to me because I'm starting to lose it . How could a paper with a card disappear?

DH: ARGH!!!!!!!!!!! Stop telling me we can just go to the DMV to get a new one when we get there. Do you not understand the DMV???????????????????? ARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lettuce, I felt the same last night Sometimes it is safer to put them down.

 

[Lettuce]

Ooooooo new siggy Ozzie! I like it!

My dads band was my wedding band! for the first two dances my brother took my dads place tho.
My last dance was Loch Lomond and DH and I stood in the circle of the wedding party, with a second circle of at least 150 guests round them! Then when that finished, at midnight, they started singing "for they are jolly good fellows" and DH and I made a break for it bursting through both circles, out the door and up the stairs to the honeymoon suite!
I just didn't want to hang about at the end, you know, with steaming relatives saying goodbye about a million times!

Dear Jen, please sleep better tonight.

 

[Natsku]

Maria is ok now, she got a little burnt

Euan isn't an unusual name, I like it.

You can't get much more common than Maria though, most common woman's name in the world if she was a boy she would have been Aslak though, more unusual.

The way my parents make a point of not buying stuff for my kids and if they do theres a deal made out of it ! its your grandkids you should see all their other gran does for them! instead of buying buttons chocolate which I asked you not to do several times we dont need William having any chocolate with how he goes on with it and his teeth, be a gran he likes to see coming not one that just brings sweets its manipulating him in to liking you. He has issues with you as it is. And saying "oh this is just a one off" for buying a cheap book for him I asked you to get and and offered to pay when asking you, its only £1.99 dont make it sound like you are being robbed. And yes when I ask you to get me something as you do always say you can pick me up stuff dont go on about the money you know you will get it in your account soon as the children settle and I get the chance its only like £2! bet you dont say that to the son you have at home you pay everything for as he will not get a job! he has no job for 6 years now when does that end? you cant get rent out of him he blackmails you and has dinner not only cooked and paid for by you but when you go out to eat you bring him some back or he gets peed off about not being fed! he is 34 dam it! has no money yet goes clubbing every weekend in destinations no closer than 50 miles away in his car. And what was that about "this is just a one off" book for your son? put you to shame if you seen the room that William has in his other grans just a play room full of his stuff they have him , no need to wonder why he likes going there to play he comes back and has learned things I am impressed by. Getting hard to hide his disappointment to when he sees its not the right gran that turned up I said was coming. :/

Sil- every week you plan to go out with me and Flynn, every week you cancel at the past minute! This week we were all packed up getting ready to put coats on! It's not just pissing me off it's upsetting for Flynn too.

 

[tanya]

F@ck!ng sil again! Last night was the first night in ages Flynn sttn, tonight it get to midnight and sil goes to the bathroom and slams the door, flynns bedroom door is right next to the bathroom and his door is wedged open a bit cue screaming fit, I get up to see to him and sil is stood on her phone on the landing chatting away (quite loudly as she's Scottish and partially deaf) all she said was "oh sorry" and wandered off up to their room.
We've lived here nearly 9months and I've quietly started looking at houses on the net but we can't afford any of them, living here is our stability (was evicted twice while pg when landlords sold the houses from under us) it's also incredibly cheap, we split the mortgage and all bills down the middle so we basically pay out £450 a month and that's it. It mean I don't have to work as dh's wage pays for everything but it also means that we are use to paying a tiny amount for housing so will struggle if we ever do leave.
I don't want to leave i love this hose, i like the area and i really like being a sahm and having live in babysitters and someone there most of the time if Flynn needs entertaining while I'm busy I just want it to go back to when we first moved in and we equally shared the cleaning and did all our own washing up, I do all the cleaning and nine times out of ten I wash two lots of pots since we cook separately there's loads of washing up.
I know I don't work and they do but on their days off and during the day when they aren't working they still don't bother going over the bathroom with a cloth or anything, their lounge is a disgrace and I don't like letting Flynn play on the floor in our lounge as there's always cat litter beyond trodden through.
