hullo!

just popping in to say a quick hello. I'm making a dash for town before it gets mega busy! Hoping to get in and out before the crowds. T is seriously needing some new sleepsuits (although CD wouldn't approve ) as he's growing fast and the baby bundle of clothes my SIL passed on is dwindling !

Will catch up properly later!

Right going! Wish me luck!

Ps can you tell I don't normally go in on a saturday!

PPS Just had to think "it is saturday isn't it!!! AHHHH!!

Hi ladies.

Hilarious chat last night. I was hoping to God my dh didn't come on and check out the posts and uncover my sordid not-so-past!

How is everyone today then??

Luce, sorry you are feeling off colour. Hugs to you.

GM, have a fab time away.

Had a bit of a lie in this a.m which was great, but also feel a bit rough. Feel like my chest is quite tight, and have a headache (may be to do with the red wine??)

Weather is pants here again today. Going to B's preschool as they are celebrating 5 years of being open. Then a hair cut for me - without children - HURRAH!!!

Right need to go, as K is crying - typically as dh and B are just heading out the door!

Back later. x

Cold is getting worse ..... yuk yuk yuk.....

Sorry to miss the mental chat last night; but I did enjoy a rare night out with DH - we went to a friend's Birthday BBQ, which was fun - Nice to see a few old friends & relax a little. Couldn't stay long though as BBQ was 40 mins away, starting at 8pm and MIL wanted us back before 11pm!! Feel like a naughy schoolgirl - staying up passed the curfew!! Bloomin' woman... Anyway, our 1st night out together since P was born, so good stuff!

DH has taken K to the 999 Display, it is peeing down with rain & we're all supposed to be doing a sponsored cycle ride for a local charity this PM .... .... Well, DH will be riding the bike with K & S in the trailer & I'll be walking along behind with P in the sling ..... The irony is when we did it last year, S was a little bit too small for the trailer, so I walked with her in the back carrier and we said "won't it be nice next year when K & S are big enough to both go in the trailer & we can all cycle!!?" Whoops!! Oh well, may be one year we'll all get to cycle!!!!!!?

What has everyone else got planned this w/e?? If we don't cycle this PM we'll be going to K's "Summer" Fayre at Pre-School and popping into town to get a Charlie & Lola DVD that DD1 really wants ..... Tomrrow is church and possibly a friend's little boy's 1st Birthday Party .....

Yuk I am soooo bunged up .....

i need some sleep

leakyR · 30/06/2007 15:27

dh has just gone out in the p*ing rain to walk to Headingley. He's meeting friends to go watch Yorkshire vs Durham 20-20. Somehow I think I'll have a v.drunk husband returned to me later not having watched a single over. They can't play in this!

However his guilt at leaving me with G all evening meant I've had a lovely lunch in an Italian restarant today. Best of all G slept through it all

Pesha · 30/06/2007 16:03

Dippy i did get doidy cup yesterday and completely forgot to say its great thank you

didnt get to sleep till gone 4 last night after msn chat and feeding dylan. who then woke at 5, 6, 7,and 8. so little bit tired!

normabutty · 30/06/2007 16:06

Hey lesley - lol @ your DH. We went to white rose but it was soooo busy we gave up and came home.

Hi Pesha - you must be exhausted...it was almost 4 when i got to bed but I got a lie in this am (well a hungover one!)

Pesha · 30/06/2007 16:33

Just a bit! doesnt help with dp snoring away on the sofa next to me he's apologised for his strop last night though and is being very nice, mostly!

Pesha · 30/06/2007 16:33

Oh and LOVE the name change

oooggs · 30/06/2007 16:41

I have a tripp trapp (infact I now have two trying to plan in advance)

Fantastic things and I think well worth every penny. DS uses his everyday and will get a shock when he gets evicted to a 'normal' diningroom chair.

Don't like the new design so bought my second one secondhand off ebay to match my current one.

JoMa · 30/06/2007 16:59

afternoon all
i'm shattered too

glad dp has stopped his strop Pesha
