[missac]

Jayde pictures are great er!!

Well thomas decided to sleep till half seven this morning from half six last night, only problem is he felt that this was a marvellous time to get up and wouldn't go back down so I had to drag my sorry arse out of bed! I am absolutely knackered now!

We are off out to lunch with my sister today and then doing the clothes thing then going out so busy day I hope aI have time for a nap this afternoon!!!

Not a lot else to report really, this morning I haven't really done anything but teej napped and I should have but I'm not that clever! He is still roly poly boy, everytime he goes on his mat he rolls over! I have just gotten him out of his pyjams and put him in a suit he got when he was born that is 3-6, it is very cute, he is currently sitting next to me on the sofa just chilling out! I love that he does that now, he sits next to me playing with his toys!

I haven't much else to report either...Dylan is asleep i am tired but didn't want to sleep as A is here changing my oil and don't want him thinking everyday i get chance for a nap.

hope all well

Hi girls,

Thanks so much for the hugs and help last night - I needed to write down how I was feeling - it was really cathartic - once I did so, I felt much better just getting it out of my system! I still feel that I'm living in a bit of a bubble and watching everything from afar rather than really participating and enjoying this time in my life, but I am doing everything I can to try and snap out of it and am having severe words with myself.

We've had quite a good day today - we've had lots of visitors including a 2 year old, a 5 year old, their mums' and another friend - all from school days - and they were really taken with Ella and she got MORE clothes - all 0-3 again. There were gift receipts (NEXT) enclosed and I'm really considering taking them back and exchanging them for bigger sizes as I really don't think she's going to get wear out of all her 0-3 outfits, even allowing for sicky (p.s. is everyone else's baby's sick projectile?) days so I think that would be okay. We also went to check out the new Tescos about 6 miles away - uninspiring and like all the other Tescos - I thought they might have Cherokee clothes and nice plates etc - but then realised it wasn't a Tesco Extra so was disappointed - I would really like to hate supermarkets as I love local shops and shopping but can't help liking them - . Ella and I went round Tesco in her Bjorn with the trolley and everyone looked and smiled at her. I could have done with some help packing my shopping from the check-out girl though!

Tonight is bath night and Ella loves her bath even if she does try to fall asleep in it. We have a Tummy Tub and she really likes it. She's been a bit fracticious today but I think she's not feeling 100% - I had some chicken liver pate yesterday, homemade, when out for lunch and although it was lovely, it's made my tummy a bit dodgy so that's undoubtedly not been great for her either. I have to remember that what I eat goes straight to her but after 9 months of pregnancy, I really want to eat and drink what I like - it's so hard to resist! I really really want to get drunk (very unlike me as I hardly drank pre pregnancy)!

Anyway - enough babbling from me - off to continue writing my 101 thank you cards - I wish I could think of something inspiring to write in them!

Love to you all

Valentine xxx

Evening.....
Sorry ladies is just a very quick one as I'm trying to get all my work done today (&tonight ) as we're off to Cardiff first thing in the morning until Mon night.
Libby has been in her door bouncer again today, and OMG she is hilarious in it, she tries to walk off, then spin in a circle, C had to prop pillows either side of the door frame so she wouldn't bang her head she laughs so much in it
Basically, nothing going on here today to write about...I started WW diet today, still cutting carbs out after 3pm, but doing the points thing. I can save 4 a day. so I'm having 4 less than my entitlement today as we're going to Pizza Express tomorrow in Cardiff for a meal, and main course alone will cost me about 11 points of my 23 a day total.....think I'll be drinking nothing but water all day too as thats 0 points
i hope everyone is well...great news on the car Cloud....I want a car now I still have to share
I'll hopefully be back early evening on Monday, so I'll pop on to say hi and see what I've missed.
Have fun till then girls (& babies )

HI all

have a great time in cardiff Em and Libs.

Sounds lovely Rach

V i have done nothing but eat choc since D was born i never was massive on choc before he was born but couldn't eat it without puking when pg so making up now I got tipsy on 2 white wine spriters a couple of months ago LOL

anyhow forgot to say earlier D is 4 months old today and got a special extra big kiss from mommy to celebrate

he also had his first taste of jar baby food carrot and swwetcorn which he was happy with as i was out...most the jatr food contains milk so it looks like my boy will be almost certainly on the home cooked stuff

 

[kirlykird]

Hey everyone! I'm back! Just a quick post though,will try & update later

Hugs to you all

 

[valentine]

Hey girls,

We're not up to much today - just had to report that OH just made me a cup of tea!? He's also got the Mr Muscle out and he's definitely not after s*x as I've told him it's a while until any foreign object is going near my nether regions!

I'm going to try expressing this morning - wish me luck! OH's bro, g/f and 6 week old baby are coming over to watch the footie on the TV this afternoon and I've to write more thank you cards - that's about it really!

KK - Lovely to see you home. Were you on your hols? Not long to go now! How is all the planning going now or shouldn't I ask?!

Cloud9 - White wine spritzers sound LOVELY! Happy 4 months to D! It goes so fast doesn't it! I can't believe my little girl is 3 weeks old today!

er - I'm sure you are getting a little weary (!) of OH's daughter now! It'll be lovely to get your house back to yourself. Congrats on the new oven, sounds like a bargain!

Emmy - have a lovely time in Cardiff, I hope that your scary business meeting goes well! Can we please have some pics of Libby in her door bouncer as she sounds so cute!

Love to you all

morning all

Not much to report waiting to see what A is doing think I am gonna take D into Derby for a while

won a bundle of toys for him last night worth over £250 for £16

good to see you home kk

oh D is grumbling gotta go talk later

 

[cloud9]

OMG the reason D was grumbling was he had done a poo on the mat while having bum time and he was covered so was the mat so was the carpet
my house smells of poo now oh well

 

[Nic'n'Keeley]

At Dylan!!

V; hope you have a nice day with your visitors
Kk;Welcome back hun did you have a nice time?

Jm; glad you got a oven and it sounds like it was a bargain... is the butterfly park good? there's one near me was thinkin of going

Not upto much today as its raining ... I've just spent all mornin tidying up as i have my 6month inspection tomorrow for my landlord... Keeley's been asleep since 9.30.

Right better go am makin brocoli and potatoe with cheese sauce bake for our lunch

Hope you all have a nice day

 

[valentine]

Cloud - what a shame! I hope your house airs soon. If the weather in Derby is like it is here then you won't even be able to open your windows (we've got our heating on!). How do you find all your eBay bargains?! Do you have a searching secret?

Nic - Enjoy your yummy lunch! Good luck with your inspection - biscuits always go down a treat in these situations!

I just popped on to say that I tried out my (TT Freedom manual) breast pump and got 2.5oz off each breast - woo hoo! I'm so chuffed! 5oz! It was a bit exciting and daunting using the pump and the steraliser for the first time, but I coped! It's lovingly labelled and put in the freezer now. I just about shot OH when he was pouring it into the special freezer bag over the sink and dropped the bag pouring some down the plug. I said if it had come from his boob, he would have savoured every hard-earned drop!

HI all
been burning scented candle today

went out shopping D did yet another poo but in a nappy this time

bought loads of bargains

Re Ebay valentine: I tend to look before i desperately need something that way i can wait till i see what i want at the right proce..Also I look at nearest first as items that are collection only often have less bids and esp if a heavy item can make world of difference. I also look at bundles of stuff better value and sometimes if you look at last listed you can see something that has just been listed..D's high chair had only been listed 4 hours
and sometimes its just luck

D very much loves his gym at the mo aswell Er but keeps shuffleing down then getting upset he can't reach his toys

good luck with inspection nicsure it will be fine

 

[mum&2girls]

hi
not much to say today really but hope everyone is having a nice time might go for a walk later and feed the ducks with jayde if it stays nice

hugs to everyone
