Emmsys Weebles planting up the greenhouse for Spring...

[cupcakefairy]

...tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers... and more BFPs please! :)

Get comfy girls, the evenings are not so dark anymore so we'll be passing round the wine soon

Hi, Finally D is having a nap...i just hope her face doesnt stick to the sheets with all the snot!

vjay i think Darth Vader would be a very welcome guest at the royal wedding [cgrin] after all some of the guest are going to be v.over the top in their choice of outfits V.B anyone? so i would let him go as he pleases. Maybe take a more formal outfit and give to the teacher in case he decides he wants to fit in better?

Vintage dress, i also think...Im very excited about the dress and that is all. We are going to a 'royal beach party' with English food, games and a big screen. Dh is a devote royalist and wants to watch it all [cshock] I just wanna see the dress and the flowers! Shallow moi? [cwink]

Where is mermaid? She needs to lend us her step ladders to put up the bunting!

louey Im sorry your Birthday didnt go quite to plan. but you have an ipad 2 to make up for it who hooo!
So do they think you will be having baby before 34 weeks or do they think you will be back for other reasons before? Have fun in sunny cornwall, i miss my neck of the woods

I have to nap do lots and things while D is sleeping so im sorry for lack of more personals, hopefully back laters xxx

Happy wedding day peep's!

Im off to the beach to enjoy a glass or two of and watch everything unfold on the big screen in the desert heat.

Hope you all have a good day, much love B x

Hope you had a nice day at the beach barbie [csmile]

It's been very quiet on here today, I take it we were all watching the wedding? I know blue and cupcake were [cgrin]

I thought it was just lovely [csmile]

Cjay didn't dress up today, I was a little sad watching him in his uniform while nearly everyone else was dressed up, but he wasn't fussed in the slightest.

barbie just a quick post to try and reassure you on ear infections. Both my older two had loads of them. DD1 had them all winter but they were all pretty sporadic and never casued too many problems - she just kept being grumpy and then would have loads of discharge out of her ear. She was diagnosed as deaf in one ear a couple of years ago and I thought that it might be linked but have been assured that that isn't the case.

DS just couldnt shake them - when he was about 8 months he had one that just went on for months and finally had to be refered to an E&T speciliast as the antibiotics just wouldn't clear it. The consultant also diagnosed glue ear when we went . However, one round of the right drugs from the consultant, it was cleared and he never had any since. He also has no hearing problems. He does get really high temperatures - normally over 40, which used to really worry us but it just seems to be the way he is. Luckily it doesn't happen often.

Hope that helps? babyBelle hasn't had any at all yet but was seriously grumpy today, just when I was at a friends trying to watch the wedding. Will try and post some photos later of me and my girls on our wedding clothes! Also will try and post some of when Babybelle and Dolly met last week.

Aww aren't Babybelle and Dolly so cute together?

Just a quick message to let you alll know I'm still here. I tend to lurk at work, but don't like posting there and then I never find the time when I get home!

Had a lovely day with MLS last Tuesday. Her DDs are gorgeous and the girls got along really well, although both DD1s were a litle competitive. Realised as I read LBM's post that we forgot to take photos

All else fine here. Been enjoying the gorgeous weather and lierally running around after H. She's even more amazing than usual at the moment and I think I fall a little more in love every day...

Take care all. Promise to be back soon.

Hi Girls,

Loving the pic of our two emmsy's angels lbm thank you so much. Can i be a PITA and ask you to send it to my hotmail address? I would love a copy. Thank you also for taking the time to come on and tell me about your children's ears. The antibiotics are kicking in and D is being more manageable, we are going back on day 10 and hopefully will get some more answers.

vjay i have sent all the 'non facebookers' and email with a few pics of Dolly, for some reason i havent got your address, could you pls inbox it to me so i can forward the email, dont want you missing out

How is everyone, are you over wedding fever? What will the UK do now i wonder???

Didnt love the dress, it was perfect...but.....dare i say it.....a little dull? With the whole wide of designers at her feet she could of come up with something more original that a Grace Kelly copy...no? Of course is a timeless classic and everything a future Queen should wear so i cant knock it too much. I just wanted to go "wow". Nice wedding though, and Pippa looked amazing

mls just read your fb update about k falling off the bed and smacking her face ouch, ouch, ouch! Hope she is ok now and the tooth is ok????

Thanks to everyone who sent an email back confirming how gorgeous dolly is ...It's nice to see how they are all growing up.

4ever summer is Gorgeous too, we certainly produce cute kiddies on this thread

moon i have been thinking about you, your results come in soon dont they? Please pop in to let us know how you are getting on.

I have to rush but hopefully back soon...

Oh and a message from curly she is finding it hard working full time and is struggling to get on but she will be back after her break, she sends her love xx

Hello!
Just dashing in on my break at work to say hi and soooo sorry for having been so rubbish recently. I don´t have time to catch up now, but will try to do it in the next few days... Have been thinking of you all lots - hope everyone´s okay!
Lots of love to you all xxx

Hello ladies, how fab is this weather , we've been out in the garden everyday, the boys are loving it

barbie I've pm'd you my email address.

Love the picture of Dolly and babybelle

4ever your pictures are lovely too, Biscuit is growing so fast , she is just gorgeous

busymonkey and busyneeko life just gets hectic doesn't it, especially when it's sunny

Not much to report here, just busy gardening and having water fights!

I've put my profile page back on and made my photos available to just my 'mumsnet mates'. If you can't see them then I've accidently missed you off, but let me know
The photos are quite old now, I will try and get round to updating them soon.

Thanks for the pics barbie, Dolly is so gorgeous, she has lovely blue eyes

Gotta dash Ajay is waking up.....and where are you all????????????

Hello Vjay! Im here and wondered the same thing! Tis very quiet!

Thanks for comments on Summers pics everyone... She took her first few steps last night! DH and I cried! She was on a hyper mad one and dont think she actually realised she had done it!

Will be back to post properly in a bit... x x x x x

Im here...

I have news...we might be moving to Kuala lumpar eek!

Back soon, with more info and stuff....need to start breathing first

Whoops sorry didnt mean not to comment on summers first steps! Well done, now the fun really begins

Oh and thanks vjay for comments on D x

You have dropped off my threads I am on list Shows how long it is since I have had time to get on here. Things have been very busy, but mainly with social things so it is not all bad

Hope you are all well and enjoying this lovely sunshine. Will try and get back soon to have a catch up, (though can see directly above 4ever's summer has taken her first steps and barbie is on the move too ) All is well with me, just counting down the minutes days until the scan, not long now.

Waves to questions..missed you!

Barbie is still breathing into a brown paper bag...

I wont be putting anything on fb about the move until it's certain, havent even told our families yet (can we just keep it our little secret on here?) ta very much.
Dh has already missed the london part of the major project, that ship has sailed so to speak. So today the big boss called and said that want him to be part of the next stage which is in Asia, probably going by the end of year. No more details, im busy googling weather, shopping, baby groups etc while dh is busy sorting out the logistics.

Where is everyone, i thought everyone had jumped ship!

Wow barbie that is really exciting, please keep us posted.

4ever now the fun really begins

We got dfs results back today, they gave them over the phone, all is ok now he thinks its acceptable to around saying 'full of sperm me' so we have an appointment next week to see where we go next. I know I should be really happy, but if theres nothing wrong, then why isnt it happening?! I'm feeling very :( atm - my sister has a proper big bump now, I'm finding it so hard to deal with. My best friend at work, his wife is also pregnant with no.2, both her and my sister are due in August so its gonna be a killer month :(

oh and af started yesterday :(

Oh moon have a {{{hug}}}. It is good news that there's nothing wrong , and hopefully they will point you in the right direction at your next appointment. You are so much further on now than you were, say, 6 months ago, you have people helping and guiding you.
Sorry af is here, but it could be the last

qa sorry I missed you before, hello my lovely, when is your next scan now?

DH is watching the football so I'm going to be around for a bit.

mermaid where are you?

So much for getting back for that proper catch up!

Moon great news that Df is 'full of sperm' seriously though, i know you wished a wonderful cure all, but its fantastic that everything looks good for you both, and theres still a plan to be made for you, hard to stay positive with bumps in your face which you wish were yours, but you are one step closer and have the fear of something being wrong removed from your psychie which can only be positive for you.. You could well be on day 2 of your pregnancy as we speak!

Barbie OMG Kuala lumper! Wow, exciting and scary all in one, your little Dolly is going to be such an international jetsetter, i think its great... What tales she will be able to tell at school.. 'born in Dubai' 'a year in Kuala lumper' the west country folk will be in awe!

Qa been wondering how you are hon? How many wks now? Hope your not weebling too bad! You must have a lil bump now?

Vjay who does DH support? Are you in a happy house at the mo, dependent on who won?! Hate it when DHs team loses (spurs) as he is not a happy bunny to say the least...!

No more steps today, despite much coaxing! We did however recieve her 1st passport! Anyway night ladies, sweet dreams and waves to all the missing in action emmsys! X x x x x

Oh, barbie, KL - got to e better than South Korea that you mentioned when we met. I would have thought pretty similar to Dubai in lots of ways , weather, religion and fab food - ime, the best in the worl, loads of chinese, thai indian and malay - getting hungry thinking about it!!!

4ever dh is a ManU supporter, where as all my family are ManCity supporters , family get-togethers are great . Thankfully manu won the other night.

barbie any updates on your exciting move?

Big waves to everyone

Hi ladies sorry for being awol.. spent few days with in-laws and then getting back to flying solo this week has been a bit mental! Glad it was a 4 day week :)

blue I don't read nearly as much as I used to. In 2008 and 2009 I read around 50 books (I write down everything I read ), in 2010 only 22...and this year so far only about 4 so baby has definitely had a negative effect on it! But I literally try to fit it in whenever I have a few mins. Dh and I also read for a bit in bed before going to sleep.

barbie come back and tell us more...any more news?? I agree with 4ever Dolly will be so impressive to her school pals :)

moon fab news that all ok with df sample. As 4ever said, I also reckon it will totally help psychologically to know there isn't anything big stopping you getting pregnant. I've said it before and I'll say it again- you've been pregnant twice, it WILL happen again. Sorry af is here but here's to this month being the one! Have you got a date for wedding? Sorry, can't remember if you've said.

monkey how are you doing this month with all the jabs? Hope you're not feeling too pin-cushion-like. Feet up in the greenhouse and finish off the non-alcoholic cocktails from the Royal Wedding party :)

qa- you should hit 'watch thread', it never falls off your 'threads I'm watching' then :) how long until scan? Hope you're feeling ok.

neeko so glad you and mls had lovely day :) gutted there are no pics though!! I've got Grey's season 5 from lovefilm at the mo...I'm officially obsessed!! Love it. Although I heard in the current series there was a musical ep the other day very dubious about that!!

4ever I can't believe summer is walking!!! That's amazing. What a clever girl. Jude isn't showing any signs. If we try to hold his hands to make him walk he just collapses to his knees- problem is he can crawl so flipping fast he can't be bothered trying to walk

Had lovely time away though Jude is in a majorly clingy phase and just cried if anyone but me picked him up- he just hung onto me like a little monkey the whole time never mind.
Happy weekend all :)

Hi All

Think the lack of posts is due to longer nights and good weather.

MLS posted on FB that her DD1 is having to have her two front teeth removed as she fell out of bed on hols and hit them off a radiator .

Moon that is good news about your DF although it doesn't feel like it as it throw up more so why aren't I questions? To echo MLS - can only praise acupuncture.

cupcake - not long now til Jude is one! He's the day before my PFB so I always remember . I have tried to read when I go to bed but I'm normally zzzz within seconds. Glad you had a nice time away.

vjay - what's new with your missy? Did you vote? I voted SNP for first time, not because I want independence (absolutely not) but they have done a great job for NHS...so far...

4ever did you catch Summer's first steps on video?! I can imagine there is some military style organisation going down your way re: her first birthday celebrations ?

barbie bit late to comment but I though Kate and the whole 'Team Middleton' were pitch perfect. Her dress was more Maria from Sound of Music than Grace Kelly . How long will you be in KL?

LBM - high points of you hols then? Lovely pic of the girls

QA - have I missed your scan date? did you see 'Inside the Human Body' last night? I missed it but everyone's talking about it at work today. Images of how our faces form in the womb etc...

Kodak day here yesterday, Ben (slither off 17 months) got his first pair of shoes . Gorgeous old school t-bar first walkers from Start Rite in blue. He still can't stand or walk unaided but can one handed and think his shoes will help tip him over. Feeling a teeny bit as he has been my baby for much longer that DS1 was as he walked at 10 months.

Had a busy week so mega looking forward to and Grey's tonight.

Later gaters xx

Hello all

So sorry I haven't managed to catch up as promised, but on Wed I fell down the stairs at home and have either bruised or broken my coccyx. Am struggling to move, so can only stand in front of the computer for a very short time! I am such a wally!

Had a quick look at the last few posts - 4ever wow at Summer walking!!! You'll have to develop eyes in the back of your head from now on Lovely re passport too, bet it's gorgeous! Have you got any holidays planned? Come to Belgium!

Blue Bens shoes sound heart meltingly delicious, bless him! Can just imagine your gorgeous boy and his wee ankles in cutey shoes, such a lovely image! 17 months already Time flies doesn't it!

Cupcake can't be easy flying solo as you put it, and enjoy (as much as you can ) J being clingy, all too soon they're too big for mummy's cuddles much of the time Am feeling okay thanks for asking, but the jabs are doing my head in a bit... Gets sore after a few days, and have figured out that one side of my tummy is more sensitive than the other I dread sticking the needle in, it hasn't got any easier, but hopefully it'll be worth it!

Barbie KL! Oooh, we really liked KL when we were there, brief though it was! I remember being out one night and thinking I'd love to spend longer there! How long would you go for?

Big waves to everyone else, must go and lie down again now...

Forgot to say, our lovely brave dog was put to sleep on Monday - she hadn't eaten in almost a week and was so weak and wobbly. It had to happen really
