Feb 2011- food food glorious food, all over the walls and some in their tummies!

[debka]

Ok bit lame but started a nice new thread cos I put the 1000th post on the last one!

oops forgot to say hi to you 40weeks the hen night was fab! It will be hen 4 weeks today!

jane - I can't believe it's only 10 weeks, it seemed so far away when you announced it.

Ponyo - the nurseries we're looking at are only closed 25/26 Dec & 1/2 Jan but they're very near the hospital so maybe that makes a difference? Also L gets frustrated and won't eat real food if he's overly hungry, he needs a bit of milk first.

debka - happy anniversary! :)

I've requested information for 3 nurseries and they all apparently have waiting lists for January. We have appointments to look at 2 of them next week, will get on the waiting lists if we like them. Surely if we're on the waiting lists for all 3, a place will come up for him?

Wow it's been quiet on here today, hope everyone is off having fun. Dh has taken boys swimming and m is snoozing so have a few mins respite! Am still in my pj's! Is it worth bothering to get dressed do you think?

M had avocado today, there is nothing that kid won't eat, I juts don't know why he is still waking in the night. Am so tired this week.

Anyone watching x factor tonight?

jane 10 weeks is no time, shouldn't we have had our invites by now?

american I am sure it will be fine with the nursery, see if you can find out how far down the waiting list you are and how realistic they think a place will be likely to become available.

wow 10 weeks janedoe!! how exciting!! have I missed dress pics and so on?

amer meant to say ages ago that yes! another crafty one! what have you made lately?

Sorry, P's crying, have to go. XXxx

40 you know you are all invited!
dress For you milkmachine

Ahh jane I can't wait. We'll be celebrating our big 3 - 0 a month apart from each other too

Seen PIL this morning and spent most of the afternoon trying to contain my frustration. Other than that a boring day for us. Alice been calmed today though thank goodness

knitta milkmachine have you made any more lovely clothes lately for P?

ems how's the advent calendar going?

I'm still trying to sew christmas gifts for everyone but progress is painstakingly slow.

ledkr I had to google what tvr was

I mean alice been calm er not calmed - that makes it sound like I've given her some kind of tranquilliser or something

Hi all,poor 40 she comes on and we are all quiet.

Have had a letter from the hospital,dilly's op has been changed untill the 14/11 im really pissed off,not only is it makiong weaning difficult for her but it will affect her speech development and also dh has been granted 5 days carers leave and i cant go back to work!! I will be ringing on Monday but i doubt they can do much.

She is as snotty as hell but been really sweet,her crawling is keeping me fit,i removed her from the fireplace about 50 times today,she also follows me to the kitchen and then looks all chuffed when she finds me.

Dh has been at work so a bloody boring day today.I have cleaned the floor and high chair about 4 times and helped Ella make cakes which she sold on the driveway along with some old tat she sorted out,it was hillarious,she made 6 pounds and is so chuffed,the next Alan Sugar i think.

Pil have asked if its ok to visit on a sunday just for the day,do you think they have finally realised that we dont need them to move in every time.

reastie what were yours like today?
Tvr is nice innit?

jane that's gorgeous! love it. You deserve such a great day.

reastie i haven't done much, I'm trying to make some bunting for next saturday, we are celebrating my birthday and p's 1/2, and the rest are just plans... I don't know if you remember but I made Christmas presents during my ml and before the birth? well, I gave them out already so again have nothing for Christmas, I'm sure you will manage to have them ready though.

ledkr I don't want to be pesimistic but your pil might never get it. So sorry about the change of appointment, that is really bad, fingers crossed they listen to you on the phone and do something.

40 I'd say it isn't worth it gettign dressed .

Hi 40! Good to hear from you!
I will be watching X Factor and Strictly, I love it!

Reastie, I have give up on the idea of making an advent calendar at the moment, but may have a go at making my own jam! Might give it as Xmas presents.
any pics of what your making for Xmas Reastie?

Ledkr, I'm so cross for you that Dillys op date has been changed, did they give a reason? I'm so upset for you, I know how much you need this for Dilly.

Sounds like Ella made almost as much money as I did at the Baby Market today. It was rubbish. I sold about £20 worth but bought Noah two things for £10! I came back with more than I went with!

Friend had given us a door bouncer to borrow for Noah, he loves it and looked so pleased with himself turning around and bouncing up and down!

Milk Machine what are you planning to make for Xmas?

The boys are off to inlays tomorrow and I'm decorating Bens room. He wanted red and blue Walls but I compromised with blue walls, and red lampshade etc.

Enjoy your evenings, and sleep well!

ems I think there's a piccie on my profile of the chrimbo decorations everyone will get this year whether they like it or not

Au bugger ledkr that's terrible about the date change, hopefully when you explain the I

Feckin phone....implications, they will sort it out.

I had a bath with M and now have clean pj's on, for those that are interested!

Enjoy decorating emski and x factor of course, I heart Gary

reastie hello, glad A was calmer, why did Pil cause upset today?

boring fact for you ledkr apparently the tvr is so called because the bloke who designed them is called Trevor. So there, my work here is done

trevor?!!!! illusion shattered worse than brian

Sorry

Evening, lovely to see you back 40Weeks - Olivia started nursery last week, just the year before P1, all going well but she's very tired after 2 hours so I'm sure she'll be delightful when she shifts to almost 5 hours!!

jane or should I say Almost Mrs B you and Victoria eh

ledkr shite about Dillys op, deffo give them a call and cry/shout whatever will work best. at Ellas the mini mogul.

We took the girls out for the day, the weather was a bit windy so we only stayed a little bit at the beach - the sand was getting in Olivias' eyes - it was a bit of a drama So we took them to the Giants Causeway - they loved it, Mr W had them climbing up the rocks - Anna and I sat and charmed some American tourists - could have had myself a sugar daddy

I have put up a photo of me and Anna, my hair did look a lot less windswept 2 days ago when I got it done - promise!!! But the main reason I'm posting it, is because I bought A the coat she is wearing, its from Next a red furry thing, anyway today was the first day she wore it. Mr W put it on her and started to laugh saying it was a pimp coat He's now referring to it as her red pimp coat !! Have I made a style faux pas? !!!

We are all exhausted, A is asleep and Sofia, Olivia and I are in our bed watching the X Factor - oh my ears, my ears!!!

reastie Are you October or December? What were the pils up to this time?

ledkr Thats rubbish about the date change, I hope you can sort something out.

emski that is why I would never do a carboot, I'd come back with more tat!

Hope everyone is having a nice night, I'm spending the night cuddled up with DF on the couch, he has just popped out to get us a chinese take away (I know not diet friendly but i have been living on soup and porridge all week!)

wiggles at the pimp coat!, by the way the coat is fine and you look fab! Oh and less of the Victoria! Glad you all had a nice day.

omg wiggles D has a pimp coat almost the same but in pink,she also has a pink sparkly jaunty cap and she defo looks like huggy bear-showing my age now.
Ella dresses her sometimes and she always looks like a cross dresser

Dilly has insomnia,will not go to sleep even tho normal bedtime routine followed,she is just crawling around.

Haha, wiggles it is a bit of a pimp coat, love it! Like your top too btw.

ledkr absolute shite about dils op, don't know what the possibility is of them changing it but use every trick in the book. You've got that date in your head now so its hard thinking its going to be a different one now. Do you think D is just so pleased with herself crawling she can't sleep?!

jane I think ive seen it before but love that dress. 10 WEEKS! woop :)

40 hello :) hope you didn't get dressed today

Well we went to nursery and registered dd, nice lady told us if we want to on bank holiday weeks we can change her days if we give them enough notice :) but now feel a bit shitty and worried about money tbh, I knew it was going to cost but its quite intimidating thinking about it now its happening. dp said when we were there oh do you think we should find a cheaper one? fgs.

Better go am watching the killing, oh and am booked in to get a tattoo for A in a couple of weeks will let you all know how it goes (how very un-mn ) (tattoo on me, not A of course )

Ohh ponyo what are you getting and where? I want to extend mine a bit with a wee star trail along Zoe's name.

Getting a heart shaped locket with A's name underneath and just told her to 'make it all look pretty' Think you should extend yours too, we'll both have to put some piccies up :)

evening,

ponyo I had to reread the tattoo comment twice as I thought you meant you were giving A one

wiggles at the coat. When I looked at it I didn't think that at all, but now Mr W has pointed it out I cna see where he's coming from. I think it looks cute though. You just need to give her a big bling style necklace and a cigar in one hand and she's got the look . I hear the weather will be v windy in N ire/Scotland in the next day or so so hope you and jane will keep warm

Bit of a rubbish day on reflection - dh and I just had an argument debate about lack of maritals. Me being the one complaining. Was it deb whose dh wasn't interested at the min? This lack of interest is really helping my self esteem . Also pil causing stress between us - has anyone ever got divorced because of issues with pil getting in the way?

ledkr for dillys op date changed. So frustrating and annoying. I guess that's the NHS though. Btw my gran has now gone into a home - it's outside cheltenham though, forget the name. How is yours?

Hope delia is feeling better now

Oh, wiggles - my fringe dvd arrived yesterday
