moonmrs · 04/06/2014 22:01

Good strong names. J was almost a Charlie.

SabsFabulous · 05/06/2014 10:20

Congrats MrsKate Smile Smile Like the names too. How are you feeling? Hospital bag packed? I packed mine 2 days before Z arrived - I kept on putting it off, think I was in denial Grin

Z will be one next Thursday can you believe Shock

MrsKate · 05/06/2014 17:27

Hi girls

Not got bag sorted yet will have to think about it soon especially if they want to induced me early Wink I've been washing all of jacks newborn clothes like the hand knitted cardies I forgot how cute they are . Crib is all ready and waiting for the lil man to arrive Wink

SabsFabulous · 05/06/2014 21:40

Yep the newborn clothes are so cute, you forget how small they are. Both of mine didn't stay in their newborn clothes for long though Grin

4everhopeful · 06/06/2014 07:25

Fantastic news Mrsk! So pleased for you! So exciting you are preparing everything and getting ready! Lovely you can use J's baby bits too.. Great name choice too!! Grin Wink

Sabs oooh I was just thinking about you recently and the fact that Zs 1st birthday is coming up! Shock I'm just amazed how quickly this last year has flown by, doesn't seem a whole year since we were both hugely pregnant! Smile How is your little man doing?

Talking of birthdays, very big belated birthday greetings to my other pregnancy buddy Cloud for J's 4th birthday! ! Grin Hope he had a great day and enjoyed his dinosaur cake? ! Grin Did you find some icing?

Also seeing the date today reminds me it's our lovely Blues firstborn birthday today too! Happy birthday and hope all is well? ! Smile

Moon well done on the weaning! I'm just doing night feeds bf now, though occasionally the odd comfort day feed, (in fact he's having a little fix now to enable this post!) Grin I've every intention of stopping when he's 1 (so I've got 6 weeks!) That's when I stopped with Summer, but more so cos I'd just fallen pregnant again, but I know it will help with the night wakings, which he still does a lot, as soon as he can have cows milk rather than ff ill substitute it.. will be an incy bit sad to stop though!

Anyway lovelies, better get a wriggle on.. Hi to the lurkers! moment later, schools filmed Summers class acting out the gingerbread man and it's the 'movie premiere' today! Too cute! Summer's the narrator! Smile

CloudOfStarlings · 12/06/2014 09:02

ladies so sorry to go awol again! Thanks for birthday wishes 4ever J had a lovely day and loved his little party too, will try to post a pic of the cake.. I didn't find ready rolled icing in the colour I wanted but bought gel food dye instead and it's so much easier than liquid dye! My sister & I did the cake & were very pleased with it in the end!

moon fab about the job that's really positive and yay for an extra hour at home! Well done on the promotion!
Can't believe J is 8 months, and 2 years since your wedding!! Crazy! Congrats though!

mrskate congrats on a blue one!! Two boys is so lovely!

And happy happy birthday to little Zain! Hope you all have a lovely day sabs !

4everhopeful · 19/06/2014 23:32

Aww brilliant cake cloud! Grin Bet J was well impressed!

Super proud mummy moment here, Teddy took his first steps yesterday! Grin Just like Summer, a few weeks short of his 1st birthday! My ikkle man's getting all big! Just had to share!

We had Summers first ever sports day last week too, that was another long awaited, and proud parents moment! Smile

Neeko · 20/06/2014 21:03

Lovely. Smile I love those wobbly, tottering steps. So cute.

CloudOfStarlings · 21/06/2014 13:08

Awww congrats 4ever, that's so cute he's starting to walk!
We also had sports day this week, I cried!! The nursery class just looked so small, they raced in groups of 6 and ds1 won his by a long way -super proud mummy! (ok granted most of the kids were walking/falling/shorts falling down !! But still!)
Hope you're all enjoying lovely sunshine x x x

So been a fun few days . I need him out now had enough Wink

moonmrs · 26/06/2014 20:32

Hi mrsk sorry to hear of your problems, all very worrying for you I'm sure and you could be doing without it! Really hope you're managing ok. Does this mean he might be arriving early?

MrsKate · 26/06/2014 21:00

Yeah I think he will be here in approx 2 weeks GrinGrin

moonmrs · 26/06/2014 21:26

Sorry, you said that too, I must be tired! Eek how exciting! Grin
My sister has a date for her C-section next month, all these babies arriving early Smile

Neeko · 26/06/2014 23:39

Oh MrsKate, how stressful for you. Fingers crossed it goes in quickly. How exciting that you'll meet him soon.

Hi moon. Smile very exciting for your sister too.

I've heard from someone who does Facebook that a MIA emmsy is having another baby in October so we have until then for another bfp and keep the trend going! GrinGrin

Neeko · 29/06/2014 07:45

Hello. Hope you are all ok.
School is out for summer here and we are off on our caravan holiday in the south-east tomorrow. Happy, happy, happy GrinGrinGrinGrin

4everhopeful · 29/06/2014 11:15

Hi all! Oh mrsk you've certainly been through the mill with this lil fella haven't you? All very worrying for you no doubt but incredibly exciting that he will soon be in your arms! Grin You just take things very easy until then and make sure to keep us posted!

Moon yay to your sister too and how lovely Just will have a cousin so close in age too..

Neeko happy holidays to you all! I'm entering the whole new world of end of year teachers gifts, trying to be a bit thoughtful about it rather than just chocs! What's your best pressie from a pupil? Im feeling quite emotional that Summers moving up to reception all day and leaving her much adored teachers! I did also hear from a little bird about the MIA emmsy expecting again too.. Who will be next I wonder? My money's on cloud Wink

Hope everyone else is well? We are good, great day at Legoland in the week, Teddy's barely walked since those first steps, will be a slow process I reckon! Busily planning his 1st birthday party Shock can't quite believe he's nearly one already!

4everhopeful · 29/06/2014 11:17

Oops sorry Moon silly autocorrect made J Just! Hmm

Neeko · 29/06/2014 21:14

4ever. Secondary teachers don't really get gifts although I got the nicest card with a message that made me cry and wine and chocolates on fri. I usually give nice pens for marking as I'm always looking for new ones. My friend who is a primary teacher says she loves getting wine and hand-cream. A big box of biscuits or a tea hamper for the staff room would be appreciated too. Smile

SabsFabulous · 02/07/2014 17:41

Hello ladies

Hope MrsKate doesn't mind me posting but I saw on fb that her DS2 arrived over an hour ago SmileSmileSmileSmile huge congratulations !

There's a lovely photo of the two of them with the name and weight too. Not sure if I should post details or wait for MrsKate to update
