CSWS great earwax shot of Bram
Like the tattoo MRM
Also like the idea of CSWS needing a baby walker herself
Jelley, I'm slowly getting into calling you that!

mustrunmore · 14/11/2006 20:36

oops, only just seen you'd posted those pics csws, didn't scroll down far enough before! ds1 loves himself on it My tattoo looks superb

NotAnOtter · 14/11/2006 20:44

dont know if this will work!
baby otter

excuse the silly ones I have a new camera!

flamesparrow · 14/11/2006 21:15

What a gorgeous eye one!!!! I love that (does that make me odd???) I love babies with brown eyes anyway though - mine have both had blue He's a lot chubbier than I was expecting, and he's gorgeous.

Still waiting for the others to load.

mustrunmore · 14/11/2006 21:21

He's lovely But these babies all look so grown up now

Jelley · 14/11/2006 22:05

I've only just found the pics, too.

Love the tattoo, mrm. Makes me want another one...

All the babies are lovely, too, but too grown up. How did that happen so quickly?
I quite like the eye pics, too, but they are the kind of photo dd2 takes (she takes alot of pictures of feet, too).

DS has only just gone to sleep. Feeding him doesn't work any more. He gets a feed at 6.30 and 7.30, then bed. I refuse to feed him again til after 12, but he's been stood in his cot chattering for an age.

CONGRATULATIONS DEWMEADOW that's fantastic news!!! I reckon CSWS will be next maybe followed by Flame!!!

Flame - dont beat yourself up hon, you have been through a really tough time lately. Better to have the pills than get sick through it.

Got my first slobbery kiss from DS today, it was lovely!!!

All photos are great! Agree that babies are growing up too fast.

flamesparrow · 15/11/2006 07:34

Finally seen the pic!! I love your tattoo - I was a bit dubious at the sound of "big foot tattoo", but its really nice

I really like Pippa's dress too - wanted something similar for DD (same sort of style but with a bird embroidered on the back - sounds hideous I know ) - she threw a tantrum in the shop though so I refused to buy it... think I shot myself in the foot more there than punishing her.

Told DH exactly how worried I am about pregnancy, and that a test is on its way... he doesn't seem too worried about how we'd cope. Did tell him that we won't be able to keep it quiet as half the internet knows I'm gonna be testing, and eerie silence might be a tad obvious. Stomach pains in the night - low down on the right side - hoping it is ovulation pains or something (insanely optimistic as ever ).

Yay for slobbery kisses 3K - they're great

CantSleepWontSleep · 15/11/2006 08:25

Still shattered this morning. Couldn't get to sleep til about 11, then DD woke me up at 11:45 and kept me up til at least 1:15. No idea why, but she does seem to have another cold this morning. Amazingly she still decided to get up before 6. It's not like she had a lot of daytime sleep yesterday (1 hour in total after 9:30am), so hoping she'll crash for a long sleep this morning and I can go back to bed (or take a long soak in the bath and hope that gets me through the day til an early night tonight).

Thanks re the dress flame - it's my current favourite. Think I commented on here the day I bought it - only went into Next for some white tights for her and came out with that dress and some assorted coloured tights, but no white ones!

What time does your post come flame? Has the test def been sent, or do you want me to send mine too to make sure you get at least one of them? Drop me a note of your address in case, as I don't have it.

Another fan of the eye shot here NAO. What a cutie.

mustrunmore · 15/11/2006 08:50

Its prob because she didnt sleep during the day; it often works like that, that less rest equals no night sleep!

d1 went to bed with a nosebleed at 9.30pm after headbutting the bathroom door because his daddy had the audacity to close it whilst on the loo
ds2 slept till 3am, then screamed for an hour before relenting and having about 3oz from a bottle.Then woke and 4 and I bf him and he stayed in our bed. Again.

Did I mention that we had to walk home from New southgate? The buses were all sailing past full to the brim. ds1 loved it because it was dark and he got to do a wee up a tree. Then he sat in the buggy up the big hill,; very heavy to push, esp carrying a carseat!! Anyway, we were home about 5.30pm.

mustrunmore · 15/11/2006 08:51

Jelley... get one done, get one done... steal the money from somewhere and just go for it!

3k · 15/11/2006 09:06

Morning Ladies,

DS got me up at 7.30am today. He still isnt right and coughing a lot. CSWS, sounds like these colds just keep repeating themselves, I only got rid of Ben's cold a few weeks ago and now it is back with a vengence. Green snot bubbles are so NOT attractive

Not got much planned today, should do some ironing and some book-keeping as cleaning tomorrow and Friday. Also I want to get the last few christmas presents - only have my mums and DH to do!! I'm quite proud of myself this year!!

flamesparrow · 15/11/2006 09:30

Arse. No test in the post, and a letter from the landlord saying we haven't increased our rent standing order (forgot - they normally send us a form), so we owe them money.

Life just keeps improving really doesn't it??

I did recieve a lovely bat babygro though

dewmeadow · 15/11/2006 09:36

lol at Mrm's DS peeing up the tree in the dark!! Wee boys are great!

What a great tattoo mrm. Did it hurt? thats such a sensitive area - ONCE, I epilated my hairy legs and the pain was unbelievable. I was in tears!

Any running/jogging anyone? Im still exercising but have not braved the elements for a run for 2 weeks. Also, our road is disgracefully dirty and Id probably fall on my ass!

YOu're still Jas to me too!!

Cant remember anything else, so a big hello to you all!

TicTac · 15/11/2006 09:39

Morning, love all the pictures and another Eye fan here.
CSWS - how much like you does Pippa look! No mistaking she is your baby. Although looking very grown up.

I will post some pics of DD in a bit. xxx

mustrunmore · 15/11/2006 09:59

Haven't run for ages All I've done is 2 yoga classes in the last 3 weeks

Yep, it did hurt I remembered half way through that I'd said no more top of fooot ones after the one on the other side! But, I really needed a wee, and i knew if I had a break I wouldn't want him to restart, so that got me through!! It was only the very top of the foot and a bit over the ankle bone that was bad, the ankle bit was fine. And I had to look brave in a room full of men!

Chloe55stakesinavampiresheart · 15/11/2006 12:01

OMG! Having a quick check on here (at work) and can't believe DM is preggers!!! Didn't see that one coming, did we?!

Tictac - can't open that link, it needs a password.

Rosybumpily · 15/11/2006 12:18

Just butting in to say YIPPEE and to Dewmeadow!

Jelley · 15/11/2006 12:30

The pics work for me...try mumsnetters as a password. It's yahoo, so if you have another account it seems to recognise you through that.

I love Peyias hair.
And the pjs.
Really nice pics TicTac.

mustrunmore · 15/11/2006 12:34

I've somehow just joined and can see them! No idea what i've joined though The jamas are great. Tictac, you really remind me of someone, but i cant put my finger on who.

mustrunmore · 15/11/2006 12:35

Oh, and she looks like a baby still; thats great! better than all these grown up boys!

TicTac · 15/11/2006 12:44
