Happy birthday to your dd3 HJ, I hope she was well enough to enjoy it. My own dd1 is 13 today...13!

MonsterBookOfHorrors · 07/10/2011 20:07

Happy birthday Baby HJ Grin Hope she felt a little better for today.
NoHun hope your ds has a wonderful birthday too!
SpringFlowers wow at 13! :)

HarrietJones · 07/10/2011 20:26

You've a teen & s baby then spring! For now anyway Grin

Dd3 spent most the day asleep or feeding. Thrown up a few times but from gagging rather than I'll IYSWIM. Going ahead with the party as we hope the meds will have kicked in enough tomorrow

Happy Birthday little HJ for today. Hope she is ok for her party.
And SF, a teen - I don't think I knew you had a child so old! Wow!

I am exhausted. Been wrapping all his presents, and eating decorating the cake, tidying and preparing the spare room - took ages! All I have to do tomorrow is get the helium balloons, and we are done. M has been loads of fun today, into everything. ILs arriving tomorrow, very early.

Belated happy birthday to Baby Ty and happy birthday today to Baby HJ. And to your eldest, SF. Hope the party goes well tomorrow HJ and dd3 is ok for it. I've posted on your vacs thread btw.

NoHun, thanks for the nappy advice. Ds was a once a day boy too. Soooo much easier. They had the same diet pretty much so clearly she's just a poo monster. I think I might start trying the potty for dd. She's coming on in leaps and bounds with movement now. Today I went to creche to do the forms and let her see the place. It was back to the baby room where ds started and I felt very emotional, partly of course because of the thought of leaving her there but also stirring up loads of memories of him at the same age. I can't quite believe I'm back in work Tuesday and having to leave her for eight hours. You'd never think I'd done this once before.

Well I can't believe I was on the beach a few days ago. Brrr all of a sudden. Bizarre weather.

One of the mums I've known since ds was little, who has a daughter his age in his class and another about 2.5 ish has just told us she is pregnant again - with twins! Bit of a shock I think. They are identical so they will either end up with four daughters or two of each. There we go NoHun, it's your dream scenario Smile.

NoHunIntended · 08/10/2011 00:17

No worries, flooz hope you are enjoying the cloth. I love using pretty cloth nappies. :) DS is going through a phase of fighting the potty, the little scamp! I thought we had is sussed. No pressure at all, we just go with the flow.

Hope you both get used to DD being at nursery.

Oh wow, yeah, twins, I just dream of that happening. I did some research and i have age in my favour (oldness slightly increases my chances!) but they say meat-eaters are more likely to have twins than vegetarians/vegans, so that's decreased my chances.

HarrietJones · 08/10/2011 09:04

That's interesting nohun

Dd3 is a lot brighter this am. Going off to play & not clinging. Temp has gone for now so that's a big help for her

TribbleWithoutACause · 08/10/2011 11:05

Hello all,

Had a letter from our former landlords, they say they're going to charge us for redocrating walls as they were (in their opinion) dirty. Now I know there were some marks, but when they talk about decorating two rooms that sounds blinking expensive. Not happy!! What counts as resonable wear and tear.

Flooz Welcome to the cloth nappy brigade!!

Nohun Happy birthday to DS!!

HJ Happy Birthday for baby to yesterday.

HarrietJones · 08/10/2011 11:13

When did you move trib? And how long were you there? Surely the deposit is withheld for that? They can't just bill you surely?

SeaShellsOnTheSeaShore · 08/10/2011 13:38

Happy birthday Little HJ :)

We are cake decorating whilst everyone sleeps, before dd first birthday party this afternoon-where did the time go?!!

HarrietJones · 08/10/2011 18:24

Birthday party went much better than I thought, hyper ones didn't wreck the house. No one cried ! Dd3 even played with her friend. She's much better today but asleep now.

NoHunIntended · 08/10/2011 20:49

Trib, that really sucks. What are you going to do? Contend it?

Glad your DD's party went well and she played happily.

Sea, you like to cut it fine re cake-decorating? Hope it turned out well. I am pleased with my cakey efforts, and glad I got it done so I can relax now!

We have had a nice day going to a lake/park with the families. They are coming over for his birthday tomorrow for aforementioned cake. We aren't making a big fuss, will just be his grandparents, two uncles and us.

MonsterBookOfHorrors · 09/10/2011 14:53

I am loving all these birthdays, it makes me remember us all announcing our births Grin

NoHunIntended · 09/10/2011 17:04

DS's big day today! We are having a ONEderful day!

Ty, I only looked at those announcements a couple of days ago! Shame so many of our group have disappeared.

MonsterBookOfHorrors · 09/10/2011 18:16

Grin at ONEderful that's brilliant. Am glad it is going well. Happy Birthday to babyHUN :)
I was Sad about so many of the group disappearing, it also made me well up a little when I saw ILGH started the thread. I was being abit soppy though as I was reading dd's birth announcement Grin
I do wonder how they all are doing now :)

TribbleWithoutACause · 09/10/2011 19:40

hj nearly three years, its a long time and to expect it to be pristine is a bit much isn't it.

nohun I'm going to ring them tomorrow I want them to show me what they're talking about. If necessary I might ask my legal bod friend. Either that or the collective wisdom of mumsnet.

Hope everyone is having a onedurful day!

Yes taking the piss a bit me thinks trib

HarrietJones · 09/10/2011 20:59

trib are you on twitter? @mummybarrow is very good on landlord/estate agent problems. She helped me with our selling last year.

floozietoozie · 09/10/2011 23:24

Happy birthday Hun's ds. Hope you've had a lovely day. Happy birthday to Sea's dd too - when is her actual birthday? I'm still waiting for the nappies to arrive.

Dd is having a bit of a nightmare with a cough and teething I think at night. Last night she was crying pretty much non-stop for an hour and a half, and really screaming at times. she needed both paracetamol and ibuprofen. She's coughing again now and crying on and off - I fear i may be in for it again tonight... better go.

SeaShellsOnTheSeaShore · 10/10/2011 08:31

Happy belated birthday to your LO NoHun, love the fb photos :)

My LO was one on Saturday-we have had a family invasion but it was lots of fun!

Floozie I hope you LO feels better soon :)

NoHunIntended · 10/10/2011 10:43

Sea, and Happy Belated Birthday to Baby SeaShells!
floozie, hope Baby flooz is better today, and you had a decent night.

We had a marvellous day, took hundreds and hundreds of photos - can't wait to go through them all. Be prepared for a Fb mammoth upload! :) Shame he bashed his face on the Saturday and gave himself a nasty bruise/graze under his eye, but such is the life of a toddler.

MockingbirdsNotForSale · 10/10/2011 20:02

Hello All! Just checking in. Too tired to do much else. Happy birthday to all the ones who are one! DD is one on Friday and we have 2 days off work to celebrate, not DH of course, but hopefully he can skype.

MonsterBookOfHorrors · 11/10/2011 15:27

Hi, Happy birthday baby noHun and baby seashells.
:)

We have the chicken pox in this house Hmm Ds has them and I am waiting for dd to get them now :(
