Hmm, why haven't my halloween faces worked?

Ahh, just sussed it out

had another thread regarding names someone suggested scarlett sienna hope i luv it

evening all. Hope you are all well. I had a really bad night as well. DD woke up at two and didnt go back down till 4.45!! I ended up sleeping on the floor in her room. We did then sleep till 8.30 but I am creamed now..........

So what are everyones plans for the weekend then???

Hi Diege!

Im looking at the cot on line now - eek!Just trying to decide on colour to go for.

Thanks re names! Your DDs names are lovely, go really nice together too. I LOVE Mathilda but DH said no Infact, Lily is the only girls name we can agree on ( I wanted Ava, he wants Sophie).

HI LB, I am going to my friends baby shower tomorrow night. She only has a couple of weeks to go till edd!

Cosmos - nice to "see" you again, I've not been around much either. Glad the sickness is easy, mine has nearly gone now too, only been sick once this week

Gruf - I love the idea of a book list, how fantastic.

Deige - I like Splinter too. Not quite sure how fraggle came about, just nice to give him a name before we knew it was a him and he will of course still be refered to as Fraggle as even if we have a name before hand we wont be telling anyone.

LB - sorry u had such a bad night. This weekend I need to get stuff together for our Halloween party on friday, tidy the house, pick up some stuff we "won" on ebay, oh and sleep. You?

easing not easu

ahh, can't type at all today!!

Right, I am heading off home now. Have a lovely weekend everyone. I will try ad make more of an effort to pop in next week.

working tomorrow (I hate working more now I know that they have given me the elbow) then out for a meal on sunday. DP is having a boys night on Saturday so wont be in until Sunday so I will be able to have a nice early night!!!!

i am off to nct sale in the morning @ 10am on my own with £25 sounds very dangerous !!!
hoping for some bargains, baby toys, a cot mobile, gym and sling
dhs sister and nephew are down from 3pm till mon lunch which will be great

tink how can I find out about NCT sales in my area?

Yay for mobiles! I've been having braxton hicks and feeling a bit dizzy. Just realised i haven't eaten since 1. Now trying to find some food.

Just a quick one as am babysitting.

Gruff did you get the cot?
All exciting. I really do need start getting my list together. Not looked at cots yet even from my sofa windowshopping online!

Lardy- look up NCT online and there is a website and i think info per area should be there but they might get advertised locally too.

Friend left me out some goodies so sugar loaded me has meant a very activy beany...

That is cool re active bean Gyo! Havent got the cot yet but I think I am going to order it tomorrow.

I was looking at cots etc way before we were even ttc! Im hoping once I have the cot ordered then I will be able to wait for a bit then before getting anything else major!

Right, I am going to bed as Im sooo tired. Forget 1st trimester exhaustion, I seem to have missed that and got a major dose of 2nd trimester exhaustion! Doesnt help I have done 4 late babysits this week. Think all the late nights have finally caught up with me.

Right, I'm off, g'night all!

I'm up....have been for the last hour!

Gruff how about Ava Sophia?....soooo classy

Morning

Sorky - hope you managed to get some more sleep and aren't feeling too exhausted.

What's everyone's plans this wkend?

I now don't have to go to work until 3rd Nov

Our dogs are being groomed today. We have a guy that comes to the house and washes and clips them in the back of his van. He just plugs into our electricity. Each dog. Takes about an hour and costs £35. Well worth it as they are so clean and smell lovely. They just look a little shorn!

Also having 3 bookcases delivered. I love my books and think they look great on display too. DH isn't so sure but has agreed to these cheap bookcases. I will get quite obsessed and put the books on all in alphabetical order of author. Oh no! I'm getting excited just thinking about it!

morning

here you go lardy go to this website and then type in your postcode good luck finding a sale in your area soon
www.nct.org.uk/home

gruff good luck ordering cot exciting

ses dog grooming sound great

good luck with bookcases

i am off to nct sale @ ten

Afternoon! Hope everyone is well. Hope the NCT sale was fruitful TINKS - I'm sure you were at the front of the queue .
SES, I am a fellow book lover and get very excited about them! Totally understand your book-case fetish - I would be the same!
Sickness pretty constant today - am determined not to give in to it just yet, though am getting a bit worried about work next week. It's half term and I'm just in on the Wednesday for a talk I'm giving to consultants. I'm really, really struggling to get it written and am thinking of terrible lies to get me out of it..but then maybe it's just worth getting it done and delivered? Will try anyway .
Probably not back on today, so take care everyone xxx

Hi Everyone

Message for Gruff-

The Nappy Lady does demos in Farnham

"Look atwww.thenappylady.co.uk/public/articledetails.aspx?id=223#Farnham(GU9)"

Not sure when I will go yet. Prob before xmas depending on DH.

sorry for crap link there- can never work it out.

Hey all!!

Tink.. love the name, sounds like you got some good bargains! I love a sale!! Already looking in DP for maternity clothing cos they got sale at the moment!!

Deige .. Hope sickness gets better soon, think i'm only about 5 weeks not got proper sickness yet just slightly unsettled tummy. just enough to put you off your food!!

Ses.. i love bookcases but i'm one of them people who reads then passes on my books otherwise i'd have hundreds of them. My dc are only 3&2 and they must have at least 200 books between them already!

Thanks GYo will take a look now!

Hello everyone else!

Hi Everyone-

Tink- glad the NCT sale went well

Diege- sorry about sickness still. Its weird how Ive forgotten how that ongoing nausea feels already! Much sympathy though.

Hi Ses- was in Boots this morning and was thinking of you will look online at their baby stuff, hadnt thought of it before either. How is your sickness?

Also great news about the bookcases. We have just had masses of bookshevles custom built to fit in our dining room for our huge collection of cookery books - getting them is order is something we'd love to do but there are sooo many!

Hi Sorky and everyone else!

I've spent the last hour looking through the baby name threads- think Im slowly getting to some shortlists. Its a really hard decision though. Visions of me us changing our minds after telling everyone!

Hi! Just watching X Factor. Love Big Band night

Bookcases all put together and filled! 5 boxes emptied! All in alphabetical order under either general fiction, pharmacy, childrens or religion/philosophy. Love it - they look great

Tink - Bracken Hope sounds good. Sounds like you got some good bargains too!

GYo - sickness comes and goes most days but no more nasty retching sessions and definitely better than it was about 3 weeks ago.

We are having our first open fire in the living room this evening. Creates a lovely atmosphere as well as the warmth!
