A new place to chat about our beautiful babies growing and playing

[KLou111]

A new place to meet ladies :)

Glad you had a lovely time Liz shame it was so busy for violet.
Lol at thinking about bits swishing!

Euan will be in the front with me so will have to turn the airbag off. Not been in the front before, bet he loves it! We have a pick up (more like a car in the boot bit as has a top and carpeted etc). The dogs are coming with me and will be on the back seat, and we'll fill the boot with valuables and breakables.

Ohh your organised! You have all the precious cargo then!

Violets 4 th tooth has come through now, it's seems to have grown overnight! It's quite long, well long to say its only been through the gum for about 2 days!

This morning I had to literally chuck her through the nursery door as there was a parking warden in he car park 2 cars down from me. This is at 8.20 am, there's no flies on them!! So it was like, 'morning, grab her quick I have to go, oh and she's poohed!!' felt awful hat shed poohed, but she must have done it in the car on the way.
When I got back to the car he was stood in front of my car but talking on his mobile, so I just got in an went.

Lmao Liz at the poo! Assume the nursery doesn't have parking then!
Euans 4th tooth was exactly the same, it FINALLY cut on fathers day after about 5 weeks of pushing, then within 3 days he almost had a tooth!!!
He's got quite a big gap in between the top 2.

Yes, very organised, have to be in this house!! Going to start packing the car Friday as taking Euey swimming Thursday and that afternoon we've got to put a cattle fence up in between us and the field out the back. It's open at the mo so tenants asked if we'd do it and offered to help too, but we'll do it quickly on thurs if its not raining!! Otherwise they'll have to do it lol!

Ys violets have a big gap between them, I think they do tho until the others come through and push them int place.

Well the nursery does have about 4 reserved parking spaces, but 2 of them are took up by their own minibuses, and the other ones normally have cars right next door and I wouldn't be able to get the baby out. Just down from it is a waiting area as is on a train station, so I just park in there.

The olympic torch is in town today, for some reason I thought it was July, but it's today. I wasn't going to go and see it, think its a waste of money like I said before, but lulus school have asked if as many parents as possible can come and assist as the whole school is going, and they don't mind if we bring babies too, so I am going to help out lulus class. Sods law it's forecast rain right when it's on.

Oh, I have started mixing violets milk now too, she's took about 4 ounces this morning so no problems yet.

That's great with the milk. Glad she's ok on it.
Did you see the torch?

All good here, Euan decided to stand up just before bed, not aided it anything!
He was sat in the middle of the floor playing with a block toy, got up to crouched down, and just stood! Stood for about 3 seconds, then slowly crouched back down, put his hands to the floor and sat back down! He did it a few times, couldn't get a vie though.

Painting all done, hurrah!! Just got to put the cattle fence up, and clean the house where we can. Robs going to quickly go over it before he leaves. 3 more nights in this house, eek!!

Vid not vie!

Yes saw the torch, but under protest!! The kids liked it tho.

I mixed her milk at bedtime too, but think I tried too much normal milk, and she wouldn't have it. Try again this morning

Hey ladies!

I'm still here honest lol. Sorry I've not been on much, been trying to enjoy my last week of mat leave. Going to miss Joshua so much :(

Had a lovely week because nick has been off too and we have. Even swimming, put for lunch, shopping, to eureka, to my friends daughters 1st birthday party (joshuas little girlfriend hehe) and today we have chilled out. Think we will go swimming again tomorrow and relax in the afternoon.

Joshua is crawling now but wants to be stood up all day. He crawls to the sofa then stands up and just walks along it lol.

How are you all?

Good boy Joshua!!! Is he still sleeping right through?

Good luck for Monday, have you made peace with your mil?

We are going swimming tomorrow, Chris is racing so just me and kids, swimming, then asda, don't I live the high life!!

Violets learnt how to clap! She's so so cute. And she gives kisses on demand, when the fancy takes her! She is such a grandads girl, she always wants to be held by him when he comes, doesn't want to be with me. 3 weeks today till she's 1, I have got a lady to make her a 1 shaped cake and some cupcakes as we are ment to be having a BBQ, weather depending.

And good luck for you klou, hope you don't break anything!!

Hiya girls.
Glad you've had a fab week iwish
Saw your gorgeous boy crawling, clever thing. Hope everything goes ok tomorrow and your heart doesn't break too much, big hugs x

Yey on the clapping Liz bet it's very cute!! I do it with Euan and he just giggles but he can't do it himself yet. How you doing with the milk?
Cake sounds lovely, can't believe how quick birthdays are coming round!!

All ok here, at the in laws, just me, Euan and the dogs. It's so hot in this house as they have an aga always on and the bloody radiators were on!!!
My mum and dad came over and we had some lunch in the pub down the road which was lovely, they stayed til just after Euan went to bed. He wowouldnt settle as in a new room, travel cot and bloody hot! So I brought him down at 7.30 and my mum and dad left. I took him back up at 8 and he screamed and cried for 20 mins, heartbreaking as I think he thought I'd just left him, anyway, he went off and haven't heard a peep since. He's just got his nappy and sleep bag on now so he probably cooled off.
Looking very forward to tomorrow and getting settled. So far no smashes :)

Busy week for all of us!!

Fucking fuming!!!

Getting nowhere quick. Basically we are waiting for a final figure of how much we owe on our Wales house, the balance of the money left is going to the solicitor of our new house. Then that's got to go to our new mortgage company for our new house.
We're still waiting for the first figure in writing via a fax cos the solicitor won't just go off a verbal figure when though we've told them to. Surely they're meant to be acting on our behalf??
Fucking twats!!!! This better go through today. You'd think the mortgage company would want their fucking money and send the paperwork ASAP!! It was requested at 8.30 this morning!!!

Rant over.

Yeh liz still sleeping through. Kind of made peace with mil but she still does my head in.
Did you go swimming? And clever violet clapping and kissing, I can't even get Joshua to wave lol.
I hope it's nice for her birthday, can't believe she's nearly 1!! I can remember when you posted your birth story!!

Is your house sorted klou? And how is Euans sleeping after his bad night?

First day at work was pretty horrid. I cried from
The moment I kissed Joshua goodbye till I got to work. Then cried when everyone welcomed me back. I was so glad when I got home. Been off today so enjoyed time with him but I'm back at work tomorrow so he's having his first full day at nursery.

Have had excema flare up all over my wrists think I've got Ibs too do need to go to the docs.

Ohh iwish, you ar falling apart!!! Did Joshua like it at nursery tho? Could you remember what to do at work?:D

Klou, I take it your in now then? What does Euan think to his new surroundings? Has your mum and dad been making a fuss of him?

And no, didn't get swimming on Sunday, I picked up one of lulus friends, lauren. Her mum was hungover so I said I don't mind taking them on my own, Lauren swims well and it's only just over to my knees in the small pool anyway, so lulus fine, but when I got there, I couldn't go in with 3 kids under 8, even though lauren has swimming lessons there and they could check to see how good she is! so ended up at the soft play place instead.

I have just packed, got a few things to add, but mostly done.

2 more sleeps!!

Yeh he went to nursery today and he was ok. They said he was a but whingy and just wanted cuddles bless him. And he's in the accident book already. He lost his balance when crawling and banged his head on the floor, he has a lovely bruise on his eyebrow now.
I am falling apart!! Since getting pregnant and having Joshua my body has gone to pot lol.
I kind of remember what to do at work, trying to ease myself in gently

Are you excited? 1 more sleep!! I hope you have a fab time.
How long you going for?

Hello ladies!!

Sorry not been on for a few days, had time to flit on fb, but that's about it lol. Well mostly unpacked, cleaned etc. House was minging, bastards hadn't cleaned anything! I've practically taken 4 layers off the oven, defrosted the freezer, cleaned and descaled all the bathrooms, degreased the kitchen etc. Trampy bastards. They didn't live here for 4 months, and only live down the road next door to our old house, so they could've bloody well done it. At least they emptied it of all their shit though.
Love our new house, it's massive, but must say we're knackered going up and down all these stairs. Went to bed last night, Rob left his phone in the car so went all the way back down, came up and had left his iPad on the kitchen table so went all the way back down again lol.
You almost need to write a bloody list!!

Euan has been absolutely fine, has slept normal since the first night in which is fab, although he was up a 7 this morning!
Robs going out all day Sunday so I may get Euan looked after and crack on painting his room. The pink doesn't seem to be bothering him too much though!!

How've you been today iwish or are you at home? Bless you for being upset. Is it getting any easier? You are falling apart!! Hope you're feeling better.
Have you got back into work ok?

Liz you're on hol now, but hope you have s fab time!!! Was thinking of you this morning when the heavens opened. Need some bloody sun!!! Although it's now quite nice here at the mo.

Anyway, off to scrub the gloss work while eueys asleep. Xxxx

I wasn't working yesterday klou, I was shoppin with mum and Joshua. Got me and Joshua some jeans and mum bought me some shoes.
Yeh it's getting easier, today I was totally fine but really look forward to getting home. I find myself looking at pics of him when I'm at work.

What colour you painting Euans room? Glad you love your house.

Hiyaaaaaaa, I'm backkkkkkk!!!!

Good that you are getting better at leaving him at nursery, I iwish, fancy falling already, doesnt do much for your feelings about leaving him does it!!!! Never mind, babies bounce! Are you getting into some sort of routine in the mornings?

Are you all cleaned up now klou? Dirty gits, I would be so ashamed if it was me! But then I wouldn't leave it like that.

Wat colour are you doing his room? He's such a good boy for settling in straight away, are your mum and dad liking having him closer?

Well, the break was good, from Wednesday night to Sunday I had about 12 hours sleep! So so so tired. Most night I came in about 3 and still waking around 7. Ish. And I couldn't sleep even when I was in bed, I never can in strange beds. So was totally knackered. And couldn't sleep on the beach or by the pool cause I'm too nosy!

So slept like a log last night in my own bed. There are some pics on facebook

Welcome back liz!! Glad you had a good time, will go and nosey at your pics in a few mins. Were violet and lulu excited to see you when you got back? Not good you didn't sleep tho!

Yeh it's getting easier leaving Joshua, I feel better about leaving him at nursery and with my mum tho, still feel funny about leaving him with nicks mum.
Going to my friends tomorrow but going to get Joshua weighed on the way there. Joshua has a wierd rash so am going to show the hv.

How are you klou?

Welcome back Liz glad you had a fab time. Htf did you survive in 12 hours sleep??
Looked a right laugh though. Bet it was nice to not be relied on for a few days. Did you miss everyone?

Glad things getting easier iwish Have a fab time with your friend.

All good here. Euan went to my parents yesterday all day, literally 10-6, and I finished his room. Looks so much nicer. Have done it blue (original I know!!) Wanted pale green but did blue on the end. Needed ceiling doing, and 3 coats on the walls.
Robs done his blinds today, had to cut then down, took all afternoon bless him, but gorgeous. They're Venetian ones, pine colour.
He was in the travel cot last night in the spare room and all ok, but in his room tonight. 1 room down!!!

Yes I did miss everyone, even Chris, but missed the baby the most. Lulu I know can look after herself if you know what I mean, if she wats a drink she gets one, if she's uncomfy she changes clothes, if she's hungry she has something to eat, but the baby can't so worried more about how she was, but ll was fine, no incidents or accidents. The one and only thing that peed me off abit was that Chris was going racing on Sunday and taking lulus ith him, then mum and dad was taking the baby in their car, but cause the weather wasn't nice, they let Chris go racing and took the kids out to a indoor farm park/ play area!

So he didn't actually have to look after any of them for any amount of time and none of his plans changed at ll.

Yet when Chris goes anywhere, no one offers to have the kids for me so. I can go out and do something!!

He goes to benidorm in November so I said to mum, I do hope hat you will be having he kids on that Sunday!

Awwww, bet it was lovely giving both the girls a big kiss and cuddle whn you got back. Looked fun!! Was it hot? Sick of the frikkin rain now!!
Does seem a bit strange that you don't get offered a babysitter when you're on your own.
Not long til the little lady is 1!!!

All good here. Just waiting for the sky man to connect the broadband. Between 1-6, need to go out when Euans up so Robs gonna stay in.

Euans good, been walking just holding on to me with 1 hand since Sunday. It's weird walking along side him holding his hand like you would do if you were out or something! He dis all the way from one end of our kitchen to the other. I think it's about 24'. Robs brother was here yest afternoon and he said Euan looked like a chimp when he did it cos he doesn't bend his legs. Cheeky git, but was so true lol!

Had breaky with a friend yesterday morning, was fab to go out with someone else (no offence to Rob!!) she's got a 13 month old so it was a really morning. He weighs a ton though, not fat, just really heavy!! She's the one with 7 kids. She brought her 3 year old too who is gorgeous.
Sky man here.....

Yey all getting sorted then klou! The room looks lovely.

Is nice to see friends isn't it, I am usually out and about with my mum, but when I do meet up with friends I rarely see, it's great.

A girl I know has a baby with a few days between hers and mine, and violet looks like a bit dropped off her!, she's huge, not fat, but very solid and chunky.

I weighed violet on my bathroom scales and she weighs 19 lb. but she weighed that about 3 months ago when I got her weighed at the baby clinic. I have put it down to her moving mor,e she's rapid now!! No leaving doors open cause she's out like a shot!

The health visitor wanted to come yesterday and see us for her 8-12 months check, I had to cancel cause of work so she's coming 8th August. I don't rememver them coming to see me at home when I had lulu.

Good boy Euan! He is very forward isn't he! I bet he looks so proud of himself!

Oh and yes it was hot, 32-35 all the days and down to 26 in the evenings, it was lovely!!

What you all doing at the weekend?

Painting!! How abouts you?

Bought Eueys first pressie today for his birthday. Got him a thing that you put water in the top and it goes down slide like things, and a water wheel etc. Went into mothercare and had half price sale on, saw his trike that I want, loved it!! Can't wait to get it :-)

Ohh the water toy sounds good, it's violets birthday next sat and I don't have a clue what to get her, she's got a lot of toys as I have got a lot of lulus old ones out. But she doesn't have any bath toys, I might get her something like that, was that from mothercare too?

Tomorrow I am going to the next sale at 4! The taking mum out somewhere and ment to be going racing tomorrow night if it's dry, but not holding my breath!

Then going to Peterborough on Sunday with hubby and some friends, that's it, quite a nice weekend.

The game fair next weekend has been cancelled cause of the weather, not happy
