hiya its hubbard, finally worked out how to name change while i'm on my phone so i decided to go a bit festive.
deb happy birthday.
Reastie saw your decs on fb very impressed. I'm getting a sewing machine for xmas i can't wait to make my own they won't be as good as yours though
Think i may have to start cc with freya. 3 times last night she woke up. I know her teeth are playing up but i'm gettin really fed up with no sleep.

debka · 04/12/2011 13:37

Right all you FB friends, am I invited too? Am rather Envy of your little FB quiche... Is it safe to put DH's name on here, we share his account? How about I do it with dashes then won't show up in a search . Anyway he's I-a-i-n G-r-e-g-o-r-y. Please Friend me! :)

ponyo S slept for THREE HOURS this morning!

reastie can you arrange something so DH can legitimately say you're busy at the weekend? You defo need your weekends just the 3 of you, YANBU at all. We've arranged to go up to my pils for a night the week before Christmas, that'll be a barrel of laughs. BTW reastie have you taken those damn pills yet woman?

hubbard I'll do CC in the mornings with you if you'd like?

debka · 04/12/2011 13:38

Meant to ask jane have you snow there?

janedoe25 · 04/12/2011 13:42

debka I have pm'd you. Yes the snow is starting, more leety at the minute though.

janedoe25 · 04/12/2011 13:47

Hmm obv sleety!

debka · 04/12/2011 13:53

Is that a Glasgow-ism, jane, leet? Grin

hub8allthemincepies · 04/12/2011 14:47

i can't find you deb if you search for elizabeth hubbard and mine is the pic of my halloween costume of a ghost

janedoe25 · 04/12/2011 15:13

Yay got you deb! Just a daftismGrin

Four4me · 04/12/2011 18:00

Hello all, hope all well?? Will have a read through later, so busy here dh has been away and had snotty cold ridden dc's for the last week. Am trying to get started on the Christmas presses and cards arrrrrrrr need help!

Just wanted to check in so you don't all not talk to me when (in ten years) I'm better at keeping up with the thread!

Boo to af Jane fingers crossed for a 2012 baba. Xx

wigglesrock · 04/12/2011 19:57

jane Sofia will be so jealous of the wheel, I took her up when it was here and she loved it, she was really disappointed when it moved.

Its a bit sleety here too, better not delay my flight Grin To be honest am so glad to be heading away don't care where we end up Grin. Have even shaved my legs Wink

ledkr and Four4Me lovely to hear from you.

debka glad you had a lovely birthday, and lovely dress, very sexy wexy.

Oh was at my Mums for dinner and we were talking about the baby in my sisters tummy and Olivia mentioned Mr W less than athletic physique, he then joked "oh maybe I have a baby in my tummy too". At this point I was willing him to sshh because I could see how Olivias mind was working and yes she didn't disappoint "but Daddy you're a boy and boys can't have babies, they can't push them out of their willies " Blush. My dad in particular thought this was delightful turn in conversation Grin.

Emski76 · 04/12/2011 20:27

Hi all, busy weekend here, so catching up now. Just recovering from hangover from night out with girls from work, had so much fun but suffered this morning. Dh and I took the boys to in laws today then went to Bath to shop and see the Xmas market, we then went to our church for the Christingle Service.

Deb, happy birthday for yesterday, I'm glad you bought yourself some lovely clothes, love the dress!

Ledkr, good to hear from you, glad all seems ok, not so good about D's sleep. Noah's going thru a phase of waking between 4.30 and 5.30am, sometimes he goes back to sleep but mostly chats on and off til we get him up. It's bloody exhausting, but at least he's sleeping thru til then at the moment.

Wiggles, have a fantastic time in Paris, ooh lala. I giggled at your dinner conversation!

Four4me, glad all is ok with you

janedoe25 · 04/12/2011 20:30

wiggles Grin at Olivia. Dh and I went on the wheel the last time we were in Belfast. I had no idea that it travelled until it arrived in Glasgow. I thought it lived in Belfast. The sleet has now turned to proper snow, oh how i hate the white stuff! The school run is sure to be fun in the morning Hmm.

4fourme Good to hear from you, hope all the kiddies are over the colds. Hows T's ears?

ChestnutsREASTIEingOnTheFire · 04/12/2011 21:27

wiggles Grin Grin Grin to the willy comment. That's a classic Wink . Enjoy gay Paris Envy . When are you home?

jane and wiggles I know not of this wheel you speak Hmm

ems hope the hangover lifts soon

four4 I'll help you get all your christmas pressies - mine are all done and nearly all wrapped up already [proud]

deb I got your friend request and I didn't realise it was you and thought 'who is this man I don't know trying to be my friend' Blush

Went to carol singing around the tree outside the pub down the road this afternoon but it was raining and barely anyone showed up Sad . Then Alice just moaned as she wanted to get down on the wet, muddy and dirty ground so not exactly a success Hmm

wigglesrock · 04/12/2011 21:37

ChestnutsREASTIEing.. its just a big wheel, a bit like the Eye. Back on Wed evening, think we'll get the girls then. They are off school on Thurs, so it doesn't matter if we all run a bit later.

Anna wants down all the time, its a bit of a pain sometimes especially if we're outside at the park in this weather.

Looking back Olivias explanation could have been more Blush, she "learned" the word vagina last week and I just know she's saving it up for an occasion such as Midnight Mass or Sofias Christmas play or her personal favourite a very long queue in Tescos Shock

ChestnutsREASTIEingOnTheFire · 04/12/2011 21:44

Oh, and quick q - those who have jumperoo type activity station things - do your LOs still play/enjoy them or are they growing out? Alice doesn't seem to like hers anymore, don't know if she's too old for it (sob) or just that she's being moody about being put in there. If she's growing out of it I want to get it in the loft ASAP as it takes up so much damn space!

wigglesrock · 04/12/2011 22:02

ChestnutsReastieing... we don't have an activity station but Anna isn't using her car walker anymore, and she has "outgrown" a few of her bits and pieces Sad

Have put a few photos up.

Ok mes amies au revoir, see you Thursday xxxx

debka · 05/12/2011 06:51

Morning my lovelies, feeling tres refreshed this morning, had my ear plugs in and didn't wake up till 6.30, no idea what S did Blush. She was bellowing when I got up but stopped as soon as I went in and doesn't seem tired as she can be when i leave her whinging for hours, so I'm choosing to believe she woke at about 6.15 Grin.

reastie sorry, I saw you on jane's page and just automatically clicked on you- I forget I look like a man on FB!! BTW I put S's dalek in the loft about 2 months ago! She was a bit bored with it and I was sick of looking at it dusting it.

jane what a manly and unusual name your DH has. Grin I have heard that women married to men with that name are always beautiful, clever and elegant Grin.

wiggles hope you check in before you go- have the best best best time withOUT pesky children, hope you've packed your slinky stockings too. Wink

I wonder how needtosleep is and her DH. If you're lurking, needto, I'm thinking of you, let us know how you're getting on. xxxx

janedoe25 · 05/12/2011 09:59

debka you are so right about the dh name Wink.

We now have proper 3/4 inches deep snow! Angry hate hate hate it!

ChestnutsREASTIEingOnTheFire · 05/12/2011 10:18

jane Shock to the snow. Do you have your baby mindee with you today? I'm wondering how well that buggy will work for the school run in the snow Hmm

deb Grin Grin to the dh name comment. I got a msg from needto last week btw. Not sure if she's lurking or not but she's fine apart from being smoked out of her flat for the day from an out of control bonfire last week

Just off to visit a friend and her dd for lunch

Hope wiggles has touched down in paris safely

janedoe25 · 05/12/2011 10:43

No baby reastie, have him wed and thurs this week. School run was cancelled, kids parents couldnt make work so I have a wee day off!

ledkr · 05/12/2011 16:48

Hey im back online.You will be pleased to know i will be back ranting on later when ive done my dinner.

debka · 05/12/2011 17:10

Can't wait, led, can't wait!

janedoe25 · 05/12/2011 17:27

Yay ledkr is back Grin < pulls up chair and awaits the update>.

tadjennyp · 05/12/2011 18:48

Hello, hope the snow isn't too bad and wiggles managed to get to Paris! I can't believe S is 10 months old today. Had to take dh to the airport at 5 this morning as his taxi didn't turn up. Fortunately they all went back to bed when we got home. Hope everyone has a good bedtime routine/evening.

ILovePonyo · 05/12/2011 20:11

Hello all, where is ledkr with her update?! We have missed you Led shame that you're back the day wiggles goes away :)

reastie A was never really that fussed about her walker play thing but I'm keeping it for now as sometimes I can put her in it for a whole 5 mins without her whinging Hmm

I am jel of all the facebook friending going on, I want to join in! In fact I'm going to look for deb and hubbard in a mo. My pic is of me and A so hopefully you'll recognise us!

I am v tired so hoping for some sleep tonight, A was up at 1 and 5 this morning, don't know what that was about Hmm
