D'ya ever wonder how long the sun will last...?

[Sokmonsta]

Morning! Since its a sunny day here I thought I'd say sunny hellos. Unless of course anyone else has beat me to it and I've missed the new thread.

Oops, meant I'll post a sneaky photo of her on her first day home. Which is hopefully next week! :)

I do hope you feel better, nothing worse than both ends and only one hole in the toilet.

Hope Dd arrives home safely too x

Mamma - my twin sons arrived at 38 weeks.......I found out I was having twins 10 days before they arrived!! DTwin2 was almost half the weight of his big brother. He was born with severe heart abnormalities. Stuff happens!!! Awful stuff happens!!! When we have children we have to celebrate every minute of every day - children, as I am sure you know, are a massive blessing. Hope you soon get your precious twins home, and very soon. x

Thanks, Shabs :)

Sometimes I need a kick up the a** to remind me to celebrate but it's so hard whwn every milestone is clouded by new problems. Drives me crazy. They're both little fighers. Worthy of their names :)

Twins are awake and babbling in their cot while A sleeps at the bottom of it... must find a solution to this!

It's so cold this morning - I don't want to get up... don't make me. May bribe DH to takeover this morning.

Will see how K is this morning and if it looks like a cold; he staying home. I want him well in case Artie comes home.

How are you ladies, this chilly morning? :) xx

Morning girls xx

I am tired and feeling yuk................going to do nothing.............house empty except for me and the cat.............still raining, depressing.

Happiest mother alive!!! After talkng to Artie's team, it's been decided that she well enough to go home! So tomorrow I will be spending the whole of tomorrow with Artie to prove she can finish her feeds without trouble and then if she passes her car seat test she will be home Saturday!!!!! Fingers crossed!!!

oh that is brilliant! Well done Artie :)

Trips- hope you feel better soon
Mama- what a clever little girl
I picked some sloes today on my home from work, as I passed some bushes absolutely loaded with fruit, and it was the perfect time, as we had a frost on them on Tuesday. Now to get a couple of cheap bottles of gin, and, Bob's your uncle, sloe gin for next year. We opened last years brew over the weekend, phew! it blew our soks off!

bubs - I bet that stuff was wicked!
Trips - hope you feel better!

Having a cuddle fest with the family tonight, even my dad has joined us. Gunna miss him so much! K just had the sniffles propably from playing outside with a coat school.. gunna kerp him off tomorrow to be catious in case Artie is coming home xx

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Gin!!!

What wonderful news Mama, you must be soooo excited.
Shabs, never took you for a gin slinger? I used to drink gin and bitter lemon any moons ago, until one night when I was literally seeing the moon and whizzing stars...........never touched it since. Still feeling yuk, not been sick but feel it..............and still had to cook the kids supper, left dk to cook his own. Hoping for some sleep tonight..xx

Oh Trips I love Gin. Cant ever afford it BUT if I could it would be a tall slim glass full of ice with Gin and Tonic in it - really love it xxx

Big day, today! Fingers crossed!

Twins are latched and A is currently sleeping, once again, in their cot. Gunna sit them down and explain it to them and then keep them both of school. Phoned school, explained the situation and with relutance finally agreed :)

What should I take with me?!

So far so good. Laid with Artie on my chest watching TV. Absolute bliss.

Shabs- I try to make a batch of Sloe Gin every year, its a lovely pick-me-up when its cold and wet.
Trips- I would have left them to either order a takeaway or stick a readymeal in the oven themselves - get better vibes going your way.
Mama- how did the trial go- fingers crossed for getting Artie home.
Went to to fireworks display with the boys and their Young Farmers group tonight, It was good, but came home cold and wet.

Artie still sleeping on my chest. Adorable. Don't wanna put herdown. She's been waking mostly every 1.5 hours for feeds. Hardly stays awake! But hoping the rest of the night goes smoothly! Test is at 10am wish her luck :) xx

Morning girls xx

Hope this test was successful Artie.....lovely to be going home :)
Morning ladies, still not feeling 100%, so no party for me tonight, its my friends 65th and she had hired the restaurant at then end of the pier. Wouldn`t be able to drink so better off at home! At least its dry for a while, nothing but rain all week!

She's coming home!!!!! Will upload a picture of her when we are home. She'll be discharged at 11am :)

Morning lovelies.

Trips, hope you are feeing better soon.

Mama. Hopefully you are chuntering around getting ready to leave very soon with Artie. That's going to be some homecoming.

Went out last night to the local conservative ball. Was a great night. Took the mick out of the band a lot as the lead singer was dreadful/pissed, thankfully kept pulling the mike away or asking for us to join in at the bots he really couldn't sing. The actual band were bloody good singers, especially the young and rather dreamy looking drummer. We could have listened to him all night

I'm currently snuggled up having a lie in and dh is talking his mum through online grocery shopping via phone. It's making for very amusing listening. He's having to log into their account to see what on earth they are trying to do.

Ladies, a photo of Artie is now on my profile :) Will be taken down tomorrow per DH's request.

Beautiful - glad she is home x

Mama, artie is beautiful. Such a precious baby

aww Artie is gorgeous! How lovely to have her home. Hope Apollo follows soon x

Thanks, ladies :)

Haven't stopped wearing her since we got home. She's such a quiet baby! The kids love her, the boys received their gifts her but now they keep wanting to see baby.
