D'y ever wanna stop the world and get off?

[MarsLady]

Nah!!!!!!!!!!!!! Loving it too much at the moment.

Those stereo moments with the DTs though..... they make me want to put the world on pause occasionally.

Had a fab night out dancing. Saw that IAMF filled the thread and didn't even start a new one

So here it is and if you don't like the title.... well it's almost 3 in the morning. What's a Mars to do?

pixi, don't compare my darling!!! Its going to beat you up with maternal guilt. Your DTs are developing normally, all at different stages and in different ways. You don't look like me, I don't look like you, I adore Bruce Springsteen and you probably don't, I don't fall over when I get drunk, but you maybe do, I have never been able to do the slosh, you maybe can. We are normal. xxxxx

I am sure none of us would mind you gate crashing again, because after all as you say we are a really nice bunch! Bars open girls, what can I get you, also cooking Thai!

it was nice to chat to you aswell skerrymum Hi triplets I'll have a Magners please - found it on holiday and it is really nice considering I don't like cider

piximon - they say no two children are alike and I now believe that seeing my dts develop at different rates and anyway whats the point of standing/walking too soon - we do it for long enough as it is

hm - you will have a fab time

I just got called TrickORTreatEm' How much cooler is that?!!!!

Pixi... tell them the second word is off Use the first word too if you like!

My DTs are developing at different rates. DT2 ony started speaking intelligible words 6 months ago. DT1 was rabbitting on from 18 months!

having a white wine AS PER THE NORM!! Have just cooked a rather yummy pasta bake with king prawns, gruyere, fish stock and cream.......twas v decadent but yum!!!!

DH/HD is watching the rugby...........yaaawwwnnn.

Mars - I am coming to Londinium avec ma mere on 25th October........she subscribes to In Style magazine and emailed in to get tickets to a Max Mara fashion show and bloody well won some! So she is taking me. She wants to go visit some museum on the mornign of 26th October so I will be freeeeeeeeeee if you fancy a coffee somewhere??? Let me know anyways!!

I think you should get pregnant with multiples skerry!

You're welcome to come and chat though.

It's in the diary HM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whereabouts will you be staying? Shall we meet near there to make it easier?

at 45 you're more likely to have multiples!

Mars stop scaring the poor woman!

Haven't been in for a while. It's been a difficult week - OH's first week at his new job and it's been punishing...v. long hours and horrid journey. He's hardly seen the girls which is really getting him down.

So I caught up on the other thread, and then wondered why no-one had posted for ages...d'uh . Took me a good while to realise there was a new thread!

Piximon...just to echo everyone else re development. My girls definitely develop at different rates but one will do one thing more quickly then the other will do something else better first. eg DT1 was first to pull herself along on her tummy, but once DT2 had got the hang of it, she then started crawling properly first. They both managed this quite early, but DD1, although she sat up early, didn't crawl till 11 months or even lie on her tummy till well gone 10 months. My HV tried to worry me about this but I ignored her .

Wondered if anyone has any advice on this.

Hello everyone else!

Welcome back tk

New York eh HM?

I don't go very often as its a long way from where I am, but I love it there.

Things to do:

You have got to go to Central Park obviously.

Also Brooklyn Bridge is a must and have an ice cream at the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory at Fulton Ferry Landing ? its also perhaps the best place to take pictures of downtown skyscrapers.

You've got to go on the Staten Island Ferry as well, it takes an hour and has the most fantastic views of Manhattan. It's also free, which makes it even better

I like Chinatown and Little Italy as well...erm....

St. Mark's Place is good for shops, or go to one of the great cafes on MacDougal Street, or just sitting and relaxing in Washington Square Park is nice.

Federal Hall is worth a peek.

A tip: don't take a car into NYC. It's horrible and the money to park is outrageous.

Hope you enjoy NY

cheers T&T!! Will scribble all that down for my notes to do - DH/HD insists I sort it all out now that he has booked it!!

Mars - I think the hotel we are staying in is on Montague Street, which I think is Bloomsbury (not v knowledgeable re Londinium) as Mumsy wanted to be near the British Museum.........does tha tsound right?

Um............ yes............ uh huh............ yup............ um.......... sounds about............. um.......... right!

Mars - do you not possess an ENCYCLOPAEDIC knowledge of London????????

Well.............. um.............. uh huh............. of course................. yip.................NO!

well I'll work it out and find somewhere for us to meet up - fear not! Just send me your mobile no on email - you have mine - yes?

PS - FG - wanna join us?????????

Um.................... no!
