Hope it all goes well WL, I'll be thinking of you all today.

Thank you everyone for the pep talk last night, F woke about 10mins ago so was definitely exhausted. I however have been awake since 3.30 so managed to catch up on the entire thread and watch Army of Darkness all before work.

Huge, huge hugs WL I'll also pray for you all, if you don't mind? Every little helps Xmas Wink

WLmum · 24/12/2014 12:37

Thanks pidj. I don't mind a bit.
Looks like she's not having the op today after all as they want to find out more about diagnosis and prognosis first, so she might be here tom after all.

Sorry to year that WL is there any way she could come home for the day?

Ds and dd have just eaten a massive bowl each of chickpea and lentil soup. It was really spicy though even for me!

Dh is at work. I still need to sort the washing and make the stuffing but dd wants to do something fun Hmm

MrsNutELFa · 24/12/2014 18:30

WL I hope you have your mum at home for Christmas. Sending you all lots of love & best wishes! I hope you have a great Christmas day.
I'm in awe of how calm you seem. I really do wish you and your mum all the best and lots of strength. X

Willyou I hope your eye feels better very soon.

And to everyone else, a very merry Christmas!

WLmum · 25/12/2014 00:46

I brought dm home about 9.30 and have settled her in etc. she's looking much brighter for being out of the hospital.
Merry Xmas everyone!

Great news wl! Happy Christmas to you, and the rest of the December 2012 families. Grin

A self settled quite suddenly after a happy hour practicing his arms and legs while I did the stocking present wrapping. Xmas Shock Obviously he has been up twice since then though. Hmm

utopian99 · 25/12/2014 03:13

(Wow, I really treated myself to the smileys there...)

Barbeasty · 25/12/2014 05:40

Well done A.

Fantastic WL. Hope you have a lovely Christmas with your mum.

Happy Christmas everyone. Yet again I'm up before the DC!

PurplePidjingThroughTheSnow · 25/12/2014 10:35

Merry Christmas everyone Wine

MrsNutELFa · 25/12/2014 10:58

Merry Christmas everybody! Hope all the big and little people have a wonderful day. X

Stacks · 25/12/2014 14:38

Merry Christmas everyone, hope a good day is being had by all. T has had a good day so far, but is currently (very eloquently) trying to convince DH that today is a no-nap day. E is asleep on the breast, and will hopefully let me get up and leave her sleep for a while. However if T doesn't sleep I'm not going to get my time with DH anyway. We did birthday party yesterday, and a late night last night, so could really do with some quiet time.

WL thinking of you and your family.

halestone · 25/12/2014 18:30

Happy Birthday to T Thanks Cake

Merry Christmas to everyone Wine Thanks Thanks Hope you've all had a wonderful day.

WL yay i'm glad your mum came home, i hope you had a brilliant christmas.

Dp brought me some Take That ticketsGrin. But better than that was H telling us she saw santa haha.

WL I'm so pleased to hear your mum is home for Christmas I hope you're all able to enjoy it.

I'm just munching through my body weight in cheese and left over stuffing. Diet starts next week Wink

I've got horrible present envy and feel quite disgusted with myself Blush

SpottyTeacakes · 25/12/2014 20:25

My grandad has given me the you to me book back he's the best grandad Smile found out my great grandad had an MBE!

PurplePidjingThroughTheSnow · 25/12/2014 21:13

happy birthday t and Jesus Xmas Wink

halestone · 25/12/2014 22:26

Spotty what was your present envy over? I think its entirely normal to gey it.

SpottyTeacakes · 26/12/2014 06:08

Well one friend had a photo of Michael Kors, ted baker, Ralph Lauren and Claris boxes, another friend had a pair of £350 shoes Shock (just one present) and another friend got a coat, a holdall, straighteners, perfume, loungers oh and a trip to Rome!

Day two of Christmas today at my mums. Finally get to meet my nephew!

halestone · 26/12/2014 08:42

Oh i am envious of some of those as well. I hope you enjoy your 2nd christmas and your newborn cuddles.

We're having round 2 of christmas today with DsD and Dps family.

Yesterday Dp wore a santa mankini and a santa hat to my nans house. She found it hilarious the video i've got of my familys reaction was pricelessGrin

Courses for horses spotty - for my 30th bday DH built me some compost bins from pallets for the allotment that I shared with dm - I was thrilled although everyone else thought I was a loony!
I hope that one day your tree is propped up on lots of fabulous designer goodies!

SpottyTeacakes · 26/12/2014 08:45

I don't think it's necessarily the designer stuff more that they have the means to buy it plus a dh with the inclination to actually go and choose nice things on his own. Sorry for whinging Blush

Hales that sounds hilarious Grin

halestone · 26/12/2014 08:55

WL Dp went to buy me some flowers on christmas eve and i didn't know. He came back gutted and i asked what was wrong he said i just went to buy you some tulips (my favourite flower) but they had none i nearly cried that he had gone to the trouble. He is the least romantic man in the world so it would of been a complete surprise that coupled with Take That tickets yesterday and i can honestly say he is in my really good books.

Spotty it really was hilarious my nan said she didn't know if she was going to wee from laughing or have a heart attack. Then Dp went to sit down next to my sister and i have never seen her move so fast.Grin

halestone · 26/12/2014 19:02
