Morning ladies x

Well done James! :)

great news, mama.

Hope it does go ok for you soks x

Drop off went fine. Joshua charged in like a tornado. James went a little more reluctantly, but was allowed to take a toy train so helped. Jennifer did want to go in but I'd put her on reins so just had to grab her. She was fine once we got to sticker assembly and charmed one of the dads by cuddling up to him! (Little monkey lol).

I'm glad everything went well Soks. :)

I got to hold Halo, today!! He's still not woken up but they're very pleased with his progress :) Artie is an expert crawler now, I can't keep track of her! - I nearly lost her in the hospital... Grin

Also, we've decided to let the PiL have the kids overnight but not sure on which day of the week because we're hoping to carry it on during term time and Saturdays are our family days. Any ideas or suggestions?

Morning all, would be nice to get a lie in at w/ends! One son up at 5.50am to do his paper round, then off out at 7.45am airsofting. I have to be at the opticians with James at 9.30am for his Navy eye test! Still its a lovely morning out there, I shall enjoy the sunshine!
Shabs my friend how are you doing? xx

Afternoon ladies.

Last night was scary. Apollo's heart stopped for 7 minutes. I'm glad to say he's now fine and I managed to see his beautiful eyes before he fell back into a coma. He's yet to wake up again and they're keeping a close eye on him.

Got a call from my dad at 5am because all the DC were up and wanted to say good morning and to give Apollo kisses. Adorable! So I couldn't be mad that they woke me up especially since DH woke me up at 4am to get ready for work...

Waiting for Apollo's care team to do their rounds and then come see us before I head home so dad, BiL and I can take all the DC to the

Mama you must be a bag of nerves, I honestly dont know how you keep sane, I would be in such a state. I hope he is ok, poor little boy. How old are they now? Had an hour in the sun today, bliss to feel some warmth on you, reminded me of holidays, long long ago. Dy know we haven't flown since 2007, pre cancer. Dh went for his monthly scan y/day, fingers x`d its still clear, then if the boys are both lucky enough to get accepted for their new lives in the Army and Navy it would be nice to have a proper family holiday in Aug before they leave.........:( makes me feel sad already.

MultipleMama · 03/05/2014 18:09

I call the hospital every hour and I've gotten the same response; he's stable and there's no change. Which they say is good news. They are 30 weeks old now! Shock. Artie is also being BLW! She has porridge fingers and bananas for breakfast! She's growing so much, you'd never guess she was a preemie! :)

Fingers x'd, Trips for more good news! I don't know what a holiday is anymore it's been that long and 6 young kids makes certain flights impossible! I hope both boys get accepted - they seem to really want it so fingers x'd for them too! :)

Sorry I have been away, did a 54hr week this week, and it ended with a 14hr shift yesterday as I had so many problems during shift with one gent who has sadly become very aggressive with his dementia, and caused all sorts of problemsSad
Mama - I'm glad the eskimo treatment seems to have worked for little A.Smile
Chops and Trips - I can assure you my boys are not much better in their behaviour or eating habits, especially J, he is a real junk pig, then turns his nose up at a proper mealAngry
Soks- glad yours have settled in to the playschool well.
Shabbs- you ok out there hun??

Morning ladies and hi Bubbs, what a long week that was for you, it must be hard with juggling home life too. Grab some me time when you can! Up early again as boys are off to Duxford Air Museum with the ATC. Gorgeous morning again :)

I love a bit of Michael Bubble in the evening much to DH's displeasure, he's rather stick some AC/DC on to have a bath to! - He slipped in the bath today, hilarious! He's so clumsy I have no choice but to look on in pity! Grin

Halo woke up this evening!! He's very sleepy but he managed to stay awake for half an hour! His eyes are focusing which is brilliant, he has little to no movement in his left leg and has no movement at all in his left arm but his care team are pleased with how quickly he came around. Yay :)

Did someone say bar?! I'll have Virgin snickers Strawberry Mojito! - The most sophisticated a Barnsley lass can get!
