Or if we want an adults only maybe a nice pub meal at somewhere?

welcome colie

ive got a 2.7 yrs old DD who wont keep still for 5 seconds!!!(pls take a look on my profile - click on my mn name)!! hee hee!.. i live in Seaforth.

nemo - can i borrow your FIL? please please please!!!

Glad to hear you had a great break, Nemo! You'd better go for a 7 seater just incase you get the urge for another DC!!

Welcome colie. I have 2 DDs also - DD1 is 3-and-a-quarter (very important!) and my DD2 will also be 19mths next week 19mths. What are you studying? I am always very impressed with anyone who can study with small children!

I just about manage to go out to work 3 days a week and spend the rest of my time doing the mundane household things but also get chance to have fun with my DDs and sometimes we share our fun with the other lovely MNers and DCs on this thread!

Speaking of which...did we set a date for Farmer Teds??

wooo hoooo have put a deposit down on a vauhxhall zafira..so we have a 7 seater if need be..lol!!! Now just have to sell our little rover metro so if anyone knows someone who wants a car for £150 then point them this way!!! Also need to go and get my scenic either scrapped or auctioned off??!!

Hope everyone is ok..we didnt set a farmer teds date in the end did we?? Remember some people are away etc so when are people around towards the end of the month?

i thought it was june as S@2 mentioned!...

Thanks for the welcome.

Nemo2007. Where was your holiday?

Rachfran, Whereabouts in Merseyside are you? I am on the Wirral.

Lulumama,
How much training do you do to become a doule (oh sorry about spelling), don't even think I have right word there.

Biglips-quickly read your profile, getting a bit late for me now to concentrate. My sister has finished a british sing language course. Will need to advice her about going to the pub with others that can sign.
Not sure where Seaforth is. Really need to improve my geography. I have only been living in the northwest for 8 months.

JaamyBunny-Your youngest is the same age as my youngest. Have the terrible two's started yet? For my sins, I am doing an access course along with maths gcse. I will just add, that the maths gcse is 10 times harder than the access course.

I better go as struggling to keep eyes open now. Thanks again ladies for the warm welcome

Hi all, Nemo glad to hear you had a good holiday and lucky you getting a new car.
we are hoping to go away for the last bank holiday so cant make farmer teds then but any other friday can make.
Welcome colie,I am in liverpool and have 1 ds (5) and i dd who was 2 on monday, I must say I have only met some of the other mums once and they were all lovely.
E was 2 on Monday and we had an eventful weekend,firstly the dog got sick and we had to take him to the emergancy vets££££, then we had a party on Sunday and my niece ended up in A + E (water infection), Monday, We were having a bbq,bbq broke so we had to go out an buy another Had to take J to A+E thought he had broken his finger, had to take the dog back to the vets and didnt get back until 5pm then had to take j to gp and people started arriving at 5-30 and I hadn't prepared anything but it all turned out well in the end and E had a brilliant birthday, but I am absoulutely knackered.Oh Yes Liverpool are in the Champion league final So I am well happy
sorry that was a long ramble.

Arghhh panicking today as DS has his preschool booster, hv is coming out as she needs to do DD2s injections too and I am soo wound up its unbelievable.
Positive though is that FIL has ordered a bankers draft today and he is away till next wednesday so next thursday we are going to pick up the car

Blimey leander what a nightmare..but more importantly did DD enjoy her birthday..lol

Biglips I couldnt remember if we had a date at all need to read through the thread I think!!

Colie we went to Angelsey to do a cottage review as they needed someone with a baby and a toddler, luckily I have all those areas covered as my lot are DS 3.6yrs, DD1 16mths and DD2 nearly 4mths.

Hiya! I've been posting on the other thread ... oh well .

Nemo - glad you all had a lovely holiday, you deserved it and brilliant news about your fil finally deciding to spread some of his cash around , hope you have many, happy, safe journeys in it . Hope your ds's booster went o.k., I remember when our H.V. came out to do my ds1's booster, he hid behind my curtains and refused to come out, poor little thing was petrified, but he was absolutely fine with the needle it was just fear of the unknown I guess.

Leander, poor you having to deal with so much in just a few days , but Happy Birthday to your dd . p.s. What happened to your dog and how is it now?

Biglips and Jammy what have you been up to?

wow Leanander....that wud take me a week to recover!! but glad u had a god time

Browny - ive been stripping the stairs on and off and making sure im out in between in the gorgeous sun and also seeing my relatives too and been hittin the gym too. Ive started to run on the treadmill now..phew blardy hard work!! Yesterday i was at my aunties all day with my dd, my mum, my cousin (my aunties DD), cousins DD who is 6m old than my dd and my other cousin (aunties granddaughter) and my auntie's hubby. Had a right laff and stuffing our faces with cream cakes and swigging it down with a small bottle of beer.! yum yum! PERFECT!

Wot u've been up to?

Colie - im originally from the Wirral - Greasby - but moved over here cos it was close to my work and also to Dp's work - hes from Seaforth. My Brother is living on the Woodchurch estate but is moving to somewhere else as too close to the shops. So i do go over on the wirral about once a month. There is another MNetter on here who lives in Prenton - MyLittleStar - but she got alot of problems atm so she feels she doesnt want to drag us all into it as feels its not fair.

Leander, hope you have recovered from all those medical emergencies and that everyone is fine now, including the dog.

Nemo, hope kids are ok from the injections. It is always great once they are over and done with. Oh and happy picking up car day for next Thursday.

Biglips, well done about going to the gym, I will need to get motivated and do something about my jelly belly . Not sure where Greasby is but know Woodchurch as I go to Ganney's Meadow early years centre, in Woodchurch.

My eldest is off school now until Tuesday so best go and entertain her

Leander, sorry forgot to say. Happy Belated Birthday to your daughter. Big 2!

Greasby is between Frankby and Upton.

Oh yes happy belated bday to leander

Hello all
Colie - I am in Halewood, my DH is from Bromborough so we 'go over the water' quite a lot.
Glad you DD has a good 2nd birthday Leander, my DD will be 2 later on in the month. Where does the time go?

aww rachfran bless her..love your DD shes soo scrummy!!

biglips you have been busy, lots of socialising!!!

Browny how are you? Ds keeps asking after your DD think he might have his first crush

Jaamy how are you doing??

Not a lot going on here, need to get a wiggle one with getting sponsors for the mile for maude as so far we have 4 people on our list I keep forgetting to take the forms out..lol Apart from that have just been spending a lot of time in the garden as not using the car and despite living here for 5yrs I dont actually know anyone around here..lol Injections were ok, Ds was quite brave and didnt cry for the first one but did for the second and when DD2 got heres..lol At least it is all done now and no more until he is older!!

Hi All, thanks for dd birthday wishes, she had a great time she was very excited and oohed and aahed everytime she opened a birthday card twas very cute.The dog is fine, he had an abcess on his leg and had to have it lanced the wound was left open and is not pretty and cleaning it is pretty yuck but he is on the mend now thank god.
Nemo glad your little ones were fine after their jabs, E has been referred to Alderhey because she is underweight and is a terrible eater, not sure what they will do though.
Hope eveyone is enjoying the sunshine the weather is glorious. x

You's are lovely telling me where you's live. Some area's I have heard of, or seen signs directing me to, but wouldn't remember where they are. I am a Wegie, that means a glaswegian, don't all take cover, I am generally quite normal really . Having lived in Glasgow for over 30 years it is taking me some time to get my bearings in the Wirral, never mind outside the Wirral.
Leander, I am sure Alderhey will keep a close eye on your lo. There isn't alot you can do when your lo won't eat.
I go to a scar clinic with dd2 at Alderhey. She fell when she was 16 months and we have been told she will be scarred for life.. Unfortunately the scar is on her face.
Sometimes you are as well being referred to a hospital, and then the consultant can put your mind at ease. Hopefully everything wil be fine with your lo.
Trying to make the most of this weather. Going to go to our local farm and have a picnic tomorrow. Let the kids run around and hopefully tire them out.

hi again colie !

doula uk and nurturing birth explain more about becoming a doula!

Hello All!

Been too busy enjoying the sun to post! ANd trying to get ourselves ready for our hols. Like mobilising an army!
DD1 has her first ballet lesson on Saturday. I'm a bit nervous that it might be too strict for her. Maybe I should have just signed her up for something a bit less structured?? But she looks very cute in her ballet gear. ANd DD2 has discovered her love of the outdoors. She goes hysterical whenever we try to bring her inside.

Lulu - how did your NCT day go??

Leander Happy Birthday to your DD. Hope your hospital visit goes ok.

Rachfran - Just seen on one of the other threads that you had a not-so-good hol. I'm sorry to hear that. Will you get any compensation? Hope you are enjoying the nice weather here now.

BL - Gym followed by cream cakes and beer! I like that fitness regime!

Colie - terrible twos??? We have full-on lie down on the floor kicking sessions...does that count?...what fun!

Nemo - We're going to take up all the room in the car park now aren't we!!! Have been oogling all the zafiras on the roads, comparing 7-seaters, as you do. Let me know how it compares to the Scenic. And happy driving when you get it!

Browny - how're your gang doing? Hope you dad is continuing to improve. My mum has been struggling along with a bad knee for a couple of months now. Finally got her to call the docs for an appt this morning and they can't see her until at least the 14th. By which time I'm sure she'll have wriggled out of going. She's struggling on cos she thinks we can't manage without her.

Are you still going away at the end of may for your birthday? Not long now!

Hello all
Any news on the mmet up?
Jaamy hope you all have a lovely, relaxing holiday.
Looking forward to the mile for maude but really hope it doesn't rain!
