The Award Winning .......here i am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[valentine]

ER, very exciting news for you in ttc!!

What, what what?? Off to check the noo!

I hope you are all having a lovely day - especially you Cloud . How did your weekend go in the cottage - it sounds idyllic (sp?). Did you get any nice birthday presents? How old are you if that's not a cheeky question?

Emmy - Glad you had a lovely time and sorry the traffic was pants. We are really lucky here and hardly ever have to deal with bad traffic. Are you excited about your party!?

KK - 5 days to go - woo hoo! Tell us how it's going?!

trix - I hope Millie is okay now?

jw - What is the car update and I hope you enjoyed your wine! I wish I was nearer Derby then could come to your meet!

E is asleep at the moment, probably doing some serious growing as she's been feeding non stop all weekend and I am officially pooped! I feel spent! She is in her bouncer with the jungle music on and the vibrate and looks so cute! She'll be a month old on Wednesday and I am going to be sad that the first exciting month is over but thankful that we've survived this far!

We had a good weekend - OH went to the footie on Saturday (sorry if I'm repeating myself, I can't remember what I've already said where!) so E and I went into town with him and met up with friends. We went to a cafe that was very baby and pram unfriendly so I was most unimpressed. They were just rude. So I fed E which hopefully p*ssed them off - in Scotland its illegal to tell a woman she can't b/feed in a public place, its the law - I was all ready to let rip, but we just got some dirty looks. On Sunday, OH and I went to the beach and collected shells for E's memory box (from her first trip to the beach) then went food shopping (the excitement!) at the new Tescos (but doesn't have baby clothes - boo hoo!), came home and had a roast dinner - yum!

Question - do you think it's bogging (for want of a better word) to keep my pregnancy tests (6 ) in E's memory box?

Another question - what do you call your LO's (apart from their names or derivations of!)? I call E anything from Squirtle (loud sound she makes when she poos!), Chicken (she makes funny chicken noises when she's breathing sometimes) or Chumbler (we used to call her that when I was pregnant as she was always 'chumbling' [kicking]).

Today we have done next to nothing except boring things like sort my remortgage (dull and very complicated!), write some emails and express some milk - OH is going to ask that annoying questions ('what have you done today') and I'll have nothing to say - AGAIN!

E is stirring so I'd better go

Love

Valentine xxx

Hiya
M - You know we're like old washer women when we get going the pair of us, natter natter natter
V - I hate unfriendly places, we went to a café in Derby with a friend, and the door opened outwards (not handy to get into with a buggy) then other than like 2 tables on the ground level, there were like 4 steps to get up to the seating, and not one bugger helped me
Luckily my friends husband saw me, and came rushing down to help, then they gave me a really rude look when I asked for a bottle warmer Not surprisingly, we haven't been back in
We call Libby (other than variations of her name - including Libster) - Munch, Pooch, poppet, lovepops, chunky moo theres prob more I;m just not remembering
JM - What news *rushes off to check TTC*....aww hun, thats fab!! When do you think you'll start? What kind of age gap would you like? C keeps asking me how many I want, think he's getting broody?!
I've just downloaded PC Suite from Nokia, so will upload some (loads ) of pics, and the door bouncer vid.....which prob only I still find cute
Hope everyone else is well.........KK - I know you are busy with your weddingy bits (gonna do my organising from Wed onwards) so I hope all is going well...how very exciting!! Can't wait till Sat
Off to browse

Glad you've had nice day, the PC vaccuum is so you can do some housework whilst chatting online to us Sorry if you thought it was random, I was gonna put a funny note in, but I only had scrappy paper so thought better of it!
I am so pleased things have been ok between you & A hun, thats a brilliant start, I also think its great that he is starting work next week as that should give him a good new focus

Hey to everyone!

Still up!

Have so much to do for this wedding!!

Been strimming down the garden today with the electric hedge cutter & hurt my shoulder,well my garden is really long so only done a tenth of it in 3 hours

Just been sat making our play lists for the daytime music & the evening,Sound man A is on the case still.

I tell you something though,he is turning into Bridezilla! Grumpy or what? We are arguing about everything from which drinks to be served at arrival to when the speeches should be done! This is what happens when two different culturs clash

Em, good luck with your planning,was good to see you Fri,really enjoyed it & A loved the pics Glad Devon was good & you had a nice time

M, hope you're feeling better

V, mad mad mad....bad bad bad....don't get married!! Stressful!!!

Cloud, glad you had a lovely b'day & that it all is going well with A

Hopefully,might get to bed soon

Hi Er me the dude and I are good!!! We have just had the baby massage group round which was nice and rowdy, thomas is playing in his swing at the moment, I am hoping he will drop off! (not the swing literally though!!)

Thomas is having his injections tomorrow, he should have had them a couple of weeks ago but we missed them due to Nanna's funeral. Not looking forward to them but needs must!

Not a lot else to report, am street dancing again tonight!!

 

[missac]

forgot to say Kirls, not long to go remember, so although he is groomzilla now he will be fine after, and remember it is your wedding day not his, his only job is to turn up, he allowed no opinions this is what Paul was told and it worked for us!!
