He is beautiful! MMM - I've seen some photos of the christening on FB
I love the little outfit he wore for it!

DH has just phoned- They are currently watching JLS so the DC's didn't wanna move- they're singing Rhianna's 'umberella' and the Dc's are loving it!! Then they're gonna come home when they've finished their bit as they're drenched!!

thankyou hes my lil stunner, if you are going to york u will see im in person im sure. cant wait to go all excited even though i dont 'know' any of you. but should be a great day from what ive heard looking forward to it.

www bless them, both lil cuties. love them. wish we went instead of being stuck in haha. bet your DH is wanting to get home haha.

no- he was loving it just as much as them!! haha!! text me all excited earlier just because Ricky hatton was there!!

About york..... the people off here that'll be going are Ses, Kayz, Diege, IDOB, me, you.... is that i think- deepest apologies to anyone i've forgotten.

haha whats he like. at least hes enjoying it just as much though.

and ok

oki doki then, well shall speak tomorro. night night. think i may do the same shortly but not too sure yet, may explore this abit more

Hello MMM!! Max is gorgeous!!!!

Wooooooo Alton Towers tomorrow!! Then seeing IDOB on Thursday and then theory test on Friday. Getting a bit nervous now. I feel like I am stupidly busy at the minute.

awwww thankyou :D

wow i love alton towers, but havent been able to go for ages sooo not fair

good luck for your theory

Morning.

MMM, I haven't been since I was at school. So at least 7 years!! I'll take plenty of pics.

I am half dead. DS2 woke at 2 and then we had to get up at 5. The boys don't mind being up early though.

Hope you all have good weekends.

morning- still have a bit of my headache.... but wondering if i can still take the older DC's to my sisters....

hi everyone. thanks for all your meessages, especilly star and glask.apologies in advance for poor typing... weird touch keyboard.
still in hospital at least til mon. joe doing ok, but breathing is compromised as he has a condition called pierre robin sequence which means his tongue falls back into the cleft. he has to be on his tummy at all times and will need tube feeding for the next few months. feeling pretty devestated tbh. been an endless cycle of expressing, sterelising, feeding, learning how to manage his needs and trying to rest too. he cant go home til ive done 24 hour shift of care on my own and had resucitation training. need lie flat car seat as he,ll have to travel flat on his tummy. all so much to take on. hosp have been amazing and very supportive of bf, but it sometimes feels a bit pointless.
he really is the sweetest little boy tho and i feel so blessed to have him. so in love!!

Aww- Kooky- i'm crying... I may not have been in the same situation as you but i do know exactly how you feel. Its so had doing all the expressing, and everything that comes after that, and it does sometimes feel pointless- especcially when your feeling so tired. Its so tough knowing you can't take your own baby home till you've 'had care of him', i had the same with DD2, had to have at least 24hrs care.

How will the cleft be 'fixed'? will they operate, or will it grow together in time? never known anyone with it, or with a child with it so sorry for the questions.

Please do take care of yourself, if expressing gets too much dont feel bad to let him have a bit of formula aswell- may take a bit of the pressure off you for a few hours... In the first few days DD2 had some formula, and i'm glad for it as i'd never have coped in those first few days.

Morning . KOOKY, while I can;t for a miniute say I know what you're going through, I can (partly) imagine how tough these first few days will be for you, adjusting to a situation that I'm sure you weren;t expecting. I have heard of PRS before (it's come up as part of my research interviews) and I know there's a really good organisation (CLAPA - Cleft Lip and palate association) that offers parents brilliant support. They also have an excellent website with inspiring stories etc. Apologies if you know all this already! Really looking forward to hearing more about your gorgeous little boy and seeing some piccies soon!!

Enjoy Alton Towers today KAYZ! Hope the weather is kind to you.

Hi MMM! Looking forward to meeting you at York (I am the oldie of the group )Do you have the same shopping gene as your sister?

GLASK, hope headache improves - have to say how brilliant yours (and Star's) advice has been to Kooky.

Lots to do today. Need to list more on ebay and also have promised dd3 a trip to Nandos (dh taking older dds on works' outing to Anderton lift - a canal boat trip that involved using a lift in the water Still, they should enjoy it, I'm just weird And need to start seriously decluttering this house if we are moving!!!
Wishing everyone a good weekend

Diege- my sister can shop when she wants to, but dont think she's as much of a shopaholic as me!! haha!!

We can but show her the road to bankruptcy shopping heaven!

DIEGE thankyou, and im looking forward to meeting you all too. will be a good experience and change for me and my DS just hope he isnt on a grumpy day as like today haha

i like shopping, but mainly baby shopping now haha so i guess kinda haha

haha now that cant happen, but i will enjoy a good shop when i want to and have the money of course.

Oh- Diege- if only you lived closer- we'd be able to have some amazing shopping trips!! Much to our DH's misfortune i imagine.... however i'm looking forward to our Gap trip!! Though DD2 never got to wear the bargain shorts i bought because of the rubbish weather.... DD1 loved her gold ones though!! Hopefully she'll still fit into them next summer as they were fab on!! And the frilly bummed tights are getting a bit small on DD2 now too- gutted!!

i want to get max a gap outfit hopefully love them all but hes only ever had the one you bought him but that was amazing shame hes out of it

Yes, Gap shop planned here too - I have a giftcard given for ds that has been burning a hole in my pocket for a few weeks now
Agree GLASK, would be many happy shopping trips if I lived nearer...having said that, Manchester/Liverpool is only a train ride anyway

Meant 'train ride away

it is, it is..... though dont tempt me yet.... after my hols could maybe plan a xmas shopping trip in manchester?... or after new year maybe just a shopping trip for the hell of it!! hopefully i'll need some smaller sized clothes for myself by then!!

Sounds good GLASK! Will need some new clothes for work, so a very good logical reason for a splurge. We may get some bargains in the new year too!
