Lurkerty lurk lurk

lurkety, lurk - just for Vjay

lurky lurk

evening ladies - me too jealous at missing Friday - like you, 4ever I can't imagine bb staying still for 5 minutes. She currently wans to walk every where and all the time! Unless Postman pat is on the telly, that is!

buddha More fingers crossed here for you - hope the little man is better soon

cupcake oww for the sciatica. That takes me back to when I was pregnant with jo and by this stage could hardly walk... No advice but lots of sympathy.

barbie How are you coping with the cold - I seem to be freezing all the time at the moment and you must be completly frozen. Hopefully can come and shiver with you before you have to move onto Paris, you international jet setter you!!

blue I'm with you on the spreadsheets etc. I spent Friday night doing some e training and could only manage it with large amounts of gin. So much gin that I can't actually remember which training course I actually finished and had to redo one today - it is indeed living the dream!!

Hi guys,

Working from home this afternoon...

Barbie - is Henry still suffering badly with reflux? Hope you get some answers at the Portland x

4ever thanks for scooter link and I will be taping Cbeebies in anticipation of Summer's birthday card appearing . Glad the meet up went well, I know how it can be when you're up for a big blether (chin wag) but your lo has other ideas.. I avoided soft play for years as I was the one in the ball pit whilst my friends were all sipping coffee

Was thinking about you on Friday too xx

Buddha - poor Ewan He may have strained something. Its happened to both of mine but they were able to weight bear not long after so I would go and get it checked out.. I have ordered a huge dump of babydust over you this week combined with a keep TEW away dance.. fingerscrossed.com...

Not much to report from blue towers, we're looking after my nieces' gerbils - Peggy and Holly - and its been nice to have some female solidarity in the house . Also starting to get a wee pang for a puppy but shall wait until B is out of nappies actually scratch that will wait until he is out of primary school!

Better get back to my spreadsheets - living the dream me!

Im here, dh in Paris for 2 days and I'm on own for a while (yikes!)

I have an appointment with the Portland hospital this eve as Henry is no better. I will hopefully have a quiet evening and come back to do personals and update on Paris/ the meet up and everything else that I've been slack on of late x

Barbie Sorry to hear things have been so awful hope the meet up made up for it a little bit
Mls & cupcake ouch for bad backs
Mls we're off to the IOW end of next month would you recommend blackgang chine? Did you go to robin hill as well?
4ever Love the scooter!

E's not well at the moment he's got a sore tummy, temp and rash plus he hurt his leg Saturday and still won't walk on it. Sounds bad doesn't it but I know gp will say he's got a virus and last time he hurt his leg I took him to drop in clinic and all was fine but I'm must admit he's been pretty consistent about not walking will crawl or demand to be carried hence he's been called princess all wkend so off to clinic again today before he calls social services!
Af due Friday so trying not to obsessively symptom spot
Got to go his majesty is calling

Hope you had lovely day ladies.. am mega jel! Would have loved to be there, and what a gorgeous day for it too. barbie sorry things are hard at the mo but hope you're all slowly adjusting.

mls I too have horrendous lower back pain/sciatica it really is the pits! Could barely walk the other day let alone get on the floor to play cars and 'bikerbikes' with ds :( not long now...! We have another wk of school hols here in Wales, hate them as all playgroups etc off, I hate not having a schedule! You any further along with names?

lbm yep, hear you on the snack cupboard!! Ds seems to have super sonic hearing when it comes to a biscuit jar being opened, in the next room, with other background noise

Thoughts to 4ever & sabs with anniversaries today x x x

Hope you enjoyed your meet-up ladies. Sorry I couldn't come, I had my 34 week mw appt today, all is well apparently. Sorry this is short & sweet, I'm struggling atm with zero energy & mega lower back pain plus having my two monkeys with no pre-school for the last couple of weeks has left me feeling totally

Off to the Tate...map in hand, smarties at hand to bride dolly to sit in pram, sunglasses on, and I'm off!

Wishes it could be more of us there today, however I'm sure one day we can arrange a mammouth get together.

Sorry for lack of post, it's very hard being here...endless dramas but hopefully we have turned the corner and things are settling.

If I can find the camera I will take it and promise to pm the pictures to you all

Enjoy the meetup lucky ladies

Just a quickie to say imbthinking if blue and 4ever and your anniversaries today

Have a fab meet up ladies very

4ever oh, what a clever little scooter - looks fab. I was planning on a micro scooter next year but I might be converted!! However DH is going a bit mad with the garage full of bikes, scooters, cars , trampolines we already have in the garage and I'm aiming for a likeabike for tiddler next, so might have to wait on the scooter!!
And yes, you are so lucky that S eats everything - BB is turning out to be the worst eater of my three, primarily as she won't eat what the others eat but will happily eat the contents of the snack cupboard. On Friday morning, I wasn't quick enough with breakfast and so, she started decanting the contents of the cupboard onto my bed and smiled her most cute smile untill I said yes to a fruit sachet or 'zinger!!

cupcake thanks for the reassurance, yes I know it's a phase and the best thing is not to react but it's so annoying! Already realised that she has to eat earlier than the rest of us at weekends and so has seperate meals as if I don't the constant asking and crying for snacks drives you mad!!

Yummy - tea has just cooked. Night all - speak soon

Just realised I forgot to say hi to lovely moon..thanks for updating us, keeping everything crossed for you! Glad you haven't had too many bad side effects. Lol at sperminate glad he's taking the role seriously ;)

Quick one to say hi to barbie and so glad you've made it safely to this side :)

Hi lbm thanks for reassurance (and everyone else) dh & I have made a proper PLAN tonight about going into hospital so feel much better about it. But yes in an ideal world baby would arrive at a very convenient time when dh is here & has enough time to go & collect sil.. we'll see!!
Btw ds is not a good eater either.. would eat endless sandwiches/crackers/finger food but rejects most hot meals.. sooo frustrating but most friends with babies same age have the same problem so trying not to stress too much about it though it is so annoying when they just point blank refuse food!

Enjoy your weeks ladies, and the meetup.. v jealous! X
