Hey meals - I am often more of a lurker these days as I manage to keep up just about but rarely have time to do an epic Kyz-stylee post and chat to everyone. Plus I only ever have the same boring old things to say about how busy I am.
rooty sounds like uou have had a really tough time. Lots of sympathy here. I have no advice but hope you will keep talking if you need to 
BPLP squeeeeeeee and 
to you - fantastic news!
Pikz has the vom now fucked the fuck off from your poor household?
PR am very impressed for such enthusiastic joining in!
Pass that is hilarious. The dialect is really appreciated because I now read it in something approximating how it would have sounded!
eliza glad you got checked out.
Kyz how are you feeling? Any more nasuea?
Hope all well in the world of toddler + cluster feeding newborn chez household YW. It amazed me how much DD enjoyed playing with all the baby stuff. When the jungle gym came back out for S, she was often found under it. in fact once she pushed him out from under it so she could star-gaze herself!
Izzy - how are you feeling? I really do hope you are all getting some rest. Big hugs.
wanda hope the new timetabling helps you out. You sound so busy!
stunt very worrying to have such news, hope things are ok and there is a new opportunity which works for you all in your future.
Looking forward to QM getting some internet and coming back to say hi. QM.
How are things going now Donna? And same to GT, how are things with you?
Is O enjoying nursery lily?
Jims how did first ever parents evening go?
Has anyone else had a birthday yet? Is YW's J next?
So here I am super busy at work (of course) and S still finds bedtime a somewhat challenging part of the day. We have rearranged the bedrooms so his bedroom includes a double bed - much like DD at the same age he wants to be with a parent and so if he has got to sleep with someone we figure if he does it in his own room and gets used to being there, we can gradually retreat until he is basically alone. DD has gone into her big girl's room (which is actually the small bedroom), bribed coaxed into it by a Frozen theme. And I said I would never do that!! Haha. But FX the new system starts to work.
We also have turned our conservatory from a room of junk into a proper playroom with a little reading corner and they both love it. To do that we rejigged the kitchen and now need to buy a new fridge freezer and I am desperate for a big shiny red one. We have no red appliances, our kitchen is super boring white appliances, birch wooden cupboards and black granite work surfaces. The red just seems fun I really wanted lime green but that was oodles more cash rather than the tenuously justifiable extra for the red one.
And I have started to arrange visits to primary schools for DD who will start next year

Have lovely weekends quiche!
