All the kids run out at the same time, I'm sure we had to do 5 in 2008! Absurdly expensive.

Hi All, I'm the only one with an in date passport etc- good excuse to leave them all behind!![hgrin] Another vote for USA here, breakfast=Pancakes, bacon and maple syrup Dinner=any seafood place with crab and lobster where you can bash away with a hammer for me please[hgrin][hgrin]
Sokmosta - Dont get paranoid about DTD, mine were very prem (29.5wks), and even with age adjustments, any prem baby will still be behind the developmental goals, but they catch up eventually. M, although the biggest of my two when born, was always anything from a couple of weeks to a couple of months behind J in those early years, J was always the impatient one, and M far more laid back in his attitude- this continues even today!
Chopster - Glad he had a good time, I will try to google it to see him.
Trips - You have GOT to do the modeling-it will boost you up no end!

Chopstheduck · 25/10/2012 12:53

HM welcome back...................too long, too long. Not sure if you were around when I lost my lovely Mum, she died on July 3rd...............so so miss her. Went to Sherwood Forest in Aug with my band of not so merry men. Then my beautiful cat Ollie disappeared which has broken my heart again, still no sign of hi, 4 weeks now. Then bombshell, they are closing my kids school, they are to merge next Sept, yr 11 just in time for gcses. Then.................................roll call.........der der der derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, I went to London for the w/end for a MN meet up and met the Mighty Rubester who is the most lovely lovely doll as FG would say..................<strong>and</strong> about 4 weeks ago <strong>FG</strong> popped in............see what youve missed.......................oh and we caught a couple of newbies on here..........you must hang around you know:o

bagpuss · 25/10/2012 23:29

Hey girls

Trips the school merger sounds a nightmare for you - has it all sunk in for the trio yet?

Not much news here - half term has consumed me this week and I have had more than one g&t tonight as a result GrinBlush.

shabbatheGreek · 26/10/2012 07:43

Morning girls xx

Have been dancing, singing and doing rudities all night with Shane Ritchie (Alfie Moon - Eastenders) in Faliraki. Was rather nice.....he is very attentive!!! Grin

Then I woke up to a freeeeezing cold, dark, windy Bolton morning!!!

Chopstheduck · 26/10/2012 08:40

Morning girls

I don't think I've had much news really. Went on holiday (France and switzerland). Jack is bow being assessed for adhd, and playing football for his school team! Ravi was a mascot for Arsenal, and I went to drool over meet some NFL footballers yesterday.

Afternoon! Shabs you are lucky you can even see the weather today. My lovely neighbours have workmen in who have parked the most enormous white van outside next to our house. I thought it was foggy from where I was sitting Blush.

Today the older dc are playing minecraft and arguing which is driving me insane and dt1 has just pooed in her pants by accident (nice! Hmm). On the up side I have made shortbread and have tea Smile.

Sockmonsta, sorry I was on my phone last night and so couldn't do a very long post, but I wanted to say that I agree with Bubby and chops about the dts development. Mine were born at 32 weeks and still seem more like two year olds than three. They are also very little and have always hit milestones later than my older three dc. It is really hard not to compare them to one another also (but totally normal to I think), I still sometimes do it now!

HarrogateMum · 26/10/2012 14:40

Oh my I have missed so much! Can't believe there have been weddings and all sorts....and Trips am so sorry to hear your news about your Mum, sending you lots of virtual hugs.

And MN meet up you say!!??? Can't believe I missed that! Shame on me....must try harder, must try harder. Big wave to all the new multiple mums (I feel like a newbie myself now!) I feel like Ruby, sprinting to stand still, I try to juggle work, three kids, husband who is away usually 4 nights a week, pta, church helping, helping at beavers (don't ask) and the extra curricular hockey, gymnastics, karate, badminton, swimming, rainbows etc etc etc...........I think I need a lie down!
