OFM the birthdays are beginning to blur aren't they (well they are here..)

GLEE last night was pretty good; I was then singingU2 to ds1 and explaining it is "classic rock"(ie:record came out when mum was young)

Wendy at least smock tops are fashionable! But it is the waistbands isn't it. I am really v. envious - I loved being pg.

TM oh those horrid days, hopefully he will have forgotten he's cross after pre-school. Hopeyou get through the swimming, well done on lasagne, that's pretty good going.

OFM happy birthday to dd2

I woke up at 4am and couldn't get back off to sleep. Was feeling sick and had aoddgy tummy. got dd to nursery v. early and straight down motorway for interview. Was a relatively easy drive. I spent from 8.30-12 in the school. Was in the year 1 class, I loved it! All the staff in the room were lovely reallly easy to get on with. I felt at home the whole time. I even led the class at one point. Strangest interview ever- in a good way . Had a chat with the teacher, general background chat, helped in the classroom for the morning and a tour of the school with the head whilst we chatted. That was it.

Well, had a hair cut and visited DH's cousin who has a 4 weeks old - he was asleep unfortunately! Well, for me anyway as I didn't get a hold, he is now 6 lb 3 oz!
Ordered some maternity trousers online and they arrived, but they are a bit too big unfortunately, have ordered more. Sod the cost, am in a life's too short phase atm!

otherwise, better go and do something! it's our wedding anniversary today too but Mr Sainsbury has provided the food!

Oh, did you all see the photos on Facebook of Wolf's wedding in Italy? There is a link on her page if you're her friend on FB. Looks fab.
