Wow! We filled a thread!

Hope you all find this new one!

Our evening was great, had a lovely time. kids were all very well behaved. dd sleeping in our bedroom is a nightmare tho - she's sooo noisy!

we need a 3rd bedroom

we're off for Sunday lunch at The Botanist later YUM!

2cute, we're scheduled to have skids that weekend but not confirmed yet. if we do, not sure if i could come and don't want to invite 2 extra kids and dh as that'd be rather cheeky! if we don't then we'll be there

it's far too early for a Sunday!

paddle - things looking very promising, fingers crossed

slinkstar - welcome

wave to evryone, hope you having a nice weekend

suejonezisdanielsmummy · 04/02/2007 08:27

so funny that we filled a whole thread - thats new since I left.

Re roast Foxie - my mum does the best roast normally she and I do it between us with sister and her DH peeling all the veg (and brother turning up and eating it!) but of course I have a free pass today as I am looking after DS. Which of course means I am incapable of doing anything else! Not sure how long thats going to last with the family but will milk it as long as I can...

suejonezisdanielsmummy · 04/02/2007 08:28

ah sfx - I was trying to remember who had a brithday the same day as me!

pudding77 · 04/02/2007 09:47

after minor panic that I couldn't add messages to the last thread I found this one!!

thanks for all the belated birthday hugs for ds, I did try to pass them on but he shrugged me off with a'get off, I'm playing' expression! Oh, and happy belated birthdays to Sfx & Sue.

paddle, glad things seem to be going well.

We went to a friend's christening yesterday and, as dh was driving, he insisted I drink which left me in bed, fast asleep at 8.30pm . Just cannot do afternoon drinking anymore!

ComeOVeneer · 04/02/2007 10:01

Mornong all, and belated happy birthday Sue and sfx. I don'tknow what is going on with ds the last 3 nights but his sleep has gone to peices. Yesterday morning he woke at 5am and that was the day started. Last night he slepp until midnight then was awake for 3 hours. We were up at 7am and I have 10 people coming for lunch today, aaaaarrrrrggghhh.

foxabout2pop · 04/02/2007 11:07

Cov - 10 people coming for lunch? That's an aaaaargh - sure;y, whether or not LO's slept the night before?

Puds - Out of practice with afternoon drinking? You just need to practice more

Sue - milk it for all you can girl, it soon wears off!!!

sfx - happy birthday to you too

2Cute · 04/02/2007 14:05

Happy birthday sfx!

Foxi - Oh yeh, I forgot you wanted the birth at West Mid. You never know, it might just happen!

Sue - I'll cat you the details of where the party is. DH is sitting next to me and said "surely you weren't going to put his party details on the net". Obviously I replied "ofcourse not"

Paddle - It'll be fine to bring them along if you have them that wknd. My DS has a bit of a soft spot for your DD, he might get a birthday kiss from her!

pudding77 · 04/02/2007 14:31

Foxie - I think you can get arrested for afternoon drinking when looking after a child . Also, if you want to give birth at West Mid come and camp out at my house - we're just round the corner!!

Hmm, it appears Paddle's dd is something of a tease, two ds's taken with her and she's stalking my ds.... (sorry Paddle)

Paddlechick666 · 04/02/2007 15:50

if you can get arrested for afternoon drinking in charge of a child you'd better cuff me now!

dd's 1st birthday party was a complete p*ss up!!!

glad to see my daughter has many suitors but have to say she's already betrothed to best friends ds who is 9 weeks younger. altho i may re-negotiate in favour of sue's ds LOL!

2cute, thanks for extending the invite - very kind. will let you know if i may?

foxabout2pop · 04/02/2007 16:39

Eh? what about my DS?

He has a HUGE collection of Dr Who cards,which I'm glad to include as a kind of dowry.

Tempted?

hi dh has been working all day and i have been trying not to eat my chilli choc all at oncei hate it when he works weekends i really miss him sorry that was mushy

suejonezisdanielsmummy · 04/02/2007 20:00

I had Xmas lunch today.

It was lovely and the boy behaved like an angel and all the teenage nieces and nephews now think he can do no wrong.

He has even gone down to sleep without a squeak.

Almost makes up for Wales losing to Ireland IN CARDIFF. (but only almost)

sfxmum · 04/02/2007 20:06

commiserations Sue you was robbed no doubt

glad dinner went well, where there crackers hats and naff jokes? or were you retrained so the child was not too scared by British ways?

sfxmum · 04/02/2007 20:07

were were

suejonezisdanielsmummy · 04/02/2007 20:08

No crackers or hats - just the turkey dinner (have no idea where my mum found Turkey from!). I complained to my sister about lack of crackers, she said she thought we would never come home so didn't keep any form Xmas for us

sfxmum · 04/02/2007 20:08

restrained - oh i give up why don't i read before i post

suejonezisdanielsmummy · 04/02/2007 20:08

foxabout2pop · 04/02/2007 20:59
