Hmmm - now I'm not sure. I think the first, but it's a close run thing. Presume that the words that have slipped off their own line at the bottom will be corrected in the real thing?

pg - don't understand why he'd go back to sleep in your bed but not in his own. Once dd decides she's up she won't sleep anywhere (with very very occasional exception) - she just has milk then bounces around on our bed, plays with the phone and the remote, and climbs all over the bedroom!

for niece and nephew.

Have a great day at MT tomorrow Jelley. Did you like the pic of your dd1 at the playground btw - I thought it was really good?

Chloe - will ask dh to sponsor you as he's a UK taxpayer so they'll get more than if I do it.

OP posts:
Flamesparrow · 15/02/2007 20:46

lol, yup - the site is playing up and won't let me fix it yet!

PhoenixGirl · 15/02/2007 21:06

Sometimes he goes back to sleep in our bed. It depends on the time if it's around 7 he usually just sits on our bed and plays with the remote.

CanSleepWontStarve · 15/02/2007 21:13

I'm spreading the word flame .

OP posts:
Jelley · 15/02/2007 21:44

lovely niece and nephew pic.
You friend will never offer to do toddler group in her house again (unless she is totally mad) so enjoy it macca.

DS only stays miserable in the morning if I try and persuade him it is still night. Once we are up he's happy No chance of sleeping in our bed, either, but I get to doze and feed at the same time.

csws - Yes it is a nice pic. dd2 is strangely absent from the photos (but dd1 is labelled dd2!). I have one of Flame with her ds and mine, and lots of Loen and the view taken by the dds if you want to add them.

Flame - still like the first one (I quite like the blue you have at the moment on the site, too)

Chloe - remind me (and do the link again) next week, and I will sponser you too

CanSleepWontStarve · 15/02/2007 22:00

Oops you're right Jelley - have corrected, sorry. Happy to add any pics you can send to me, though focus obviously on people pics .

Thank goodness mrm got some of dd2! Not sure how I managed to miss her from them all .

OP posts:
Jelley · 15/02/2007 22:02

I don't mind, dd2 is fairly flighty, but generally more photogenic than anyone else in the family.
Can I email you pictures? May have to do one per email as I'm not sure how to do it.

CanSleepWontStarve · 15/02/2007 22:06

Yes email. What program is your email in? If outlook then you've prob got an icon that looks like a paper clip. Click that then select the file for the first pic, hold down shift and click the file for the last pic (if there are lots then suggest doing about 4 or 5 per mail due to transmission size). Does that help?

OP posts:
CanSleepWontStarve · 15/02/2007 22:07

Of course you're prob not on outlook on a mac, but if it's the mac 'Mail' program then the same icon appears.

OP posts:
Jelley · 15/02/2007 22:17

Too late (Plus the words just merge into nonsense as soon as I read them as I didn't understand at all)

I have sent 3 pictures as 3 emails

CanSleepWontStarve · 15/02/2007 22:32

Added .

OP posts:
Jelley · 15/02/2007 22:39

Thankyou

I think I've worked out the sending multiple pictures thing too (thankyou)
I have to put the pics on my desktop first but may try it later

need to go to bed now. ds has been up once already

Flamesparrow · 15/02/2007 23:56

You star!

Off to see the pics

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2007 00:00

Frizbe · 16/02/2007 08:12

'Ello all, hope you all hade nice nights last night?? hope no babies up at 4am.....

dd1 wee'd bed at 2am, sigh......but bar that all ok! she'd been dry for several days so swings n roundabouts

Flame for what its worth I like font 2 and card 2!

Macca they're cute kids

So whats everyone got planned for today/weekend?
We're weekly shopping today am, then m1 from hell to get ss this afternoon.....not sure for rest of weekend, think dh is working sat, so ? sunday night will be good tho, grandparents having all the kids whilst dh and I go out for a mates birthday!! our 1st gig in ages followed by curry, hurrah!

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2007 08:18

I've got my school mum friend coming round this morning

She has been made to promise to keep her eyes firmly on the ceiling at all times . Had a frantic run round last night getting the kitchen straight, now gotta take all the clean clothes up and dump em on my bed, and get DD's room vaguely enterable.

Frizbe - not helpful We're back to 50/50 split !

Gig n curry sound good.

Frizbe · 16/02/2007 08:19

doh sorry! have fun this am, lots of catching up?
not sure what gig will be like as not heard of the band, but friend whose birthday is assures me ok, so hell give them a go, The Black Keys, anyone?

mustrunmore · 16/02/2007 09:27

Er, not heard of them, sorry!
My weekend: mother here, ds2's birthday drop in day on Saturday, another party to go to on Sunday, hopefully getting a couple of runs in somewhere along the line.

I've just booked a HOLIDAY For me and my Mum in May... no kids! Dh will have them on his own for 3 days We're going on a trip to Eden and Heligan (Eden for her, Heligan for me!). I'm even going to take a book and have time to read it!!!

Chloe55 · 16/02/2007 09:35

I like the 2nd one Flame.

We have a wedding this weekend and dropping ds at the in-laws so I will be having a baby-free night, woohoo!!!

So you and your mum are going to 2 different places MRM?

PhoenixGirl · 16/02/2007 09:42

Flame - dh thinks font 3 and card 1

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2007 09:50

I want a holiday with my mum

Glastonbury is off due to her funds shortage I guess I'll put my money into the business (due money in April)

mustrunmore · 16/02/2007 09:52

chloe! Its a 3 day trip; eden one day, heligan the second, and then a look round padstow.
Dh is paying half, and I'm paying half from by ebay sales (he's lending me the money till I've made the full amount! Am half way there.)

Frizbe · 16/02/2007 12:47

mrm hurrah for holiday, would love to go away with mum too, on our own, but no hope, my dad panics if she's away for the day with me dependant my father.......

Chloe, hurrah for babyfree night

Flame, sorry about Glasto, but to be honest what with all the photo bother, it looked like it could be a right mare to get tickets this year!

Hmmm so last few mins to browse mumsnet now, before braving the m1, arrrrgggghhhhh don't wanna go.........still on a brighter note, dh isn't working tomorrow after all he's mine for 3 days he's got monday off cause ss down (halfterm) and we're going Butlins for the day, Brum, Bob, Basil Brush and Angelina Ballerina

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2007 13:17

Oooh my aunt lives in Padstow

Yay Frizbe for DH for 3 days.

here - an order has fallen through so I have 6 nappies here with no home which I could have really done without buying... I'll go to shops later and pick up some purple dye and chuck em in - at least that will get some singles in stock.

2boysmacca · 16/02/2007 13:33

Flame, have you enquired about a new business suport grant. My sister got given £500. Worth looking into if you haven't already.

There was a change of plan this morning and we all went to Hatfield Forest. Very muddy but at least the older ones could run around. Ds1 fell asleep in the car and is still sleeping on the sofa . He's not done that in about 12 months!

I think I'll do my grocery shopping once the kids have woken. I fancy a nice bottle of white vino so can't leave it 'til the morning.

Haircut tomorrow, am thinking of having it all chopped off. Dh panicing as last time I said that was a couple of months before my 30th and I had it cut to about 1/4 inch all over!!! Don't think It'll be that drastic this time, but I fancy a change
