Well why don't we lose some weight gmm? I'm 44 stone, you're 45 stone, should be easy to be down to 25 stone by Christmas
Just for the record you do not need to lose weight!

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 11:32

Pesha, I like all those tops, the one you linked to is very nice.

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 11:33

Where is my mobile?????????? I need one of those whistley things

Peshatlast · 05/09/2007 11:43

GMM - like the one you linked to but think my tummy is too fat and am also worried about bingo wings so looking for a jacket or summat i could wear with it! Dont want a suit jacket though, something abit less formal. Am thinking I can also wear it to sil's christening. Well nephew's christening isn't it, anyway hoping to find something that'll do both!

SPB - can you not ring it from landline?

Peshatlast · 05/09/2007 11:46

Sorry for completely ignoring all other posts btw Have suddenly realised its only 2 days till friday so if im gonna order anything I need to do it NOW!!

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 11:56

well i'm so clever i have it on silent so it doesn't disturb me by ringing
Found it now tho, was in handbag
2 days won't be long enough to order stuff, will it?

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 11:58

wonder if you can put the whistley things on silent?

Peshatlast · 05/09/2007 12:05

Next does next day delivery as standard and have codes from hotukdeals for free delivery!

I once spent 15 mins walking round my house ringing my phone trtying to work out where it was, everytime i went near the kitchen it sounded like it was by stereo, when i was by stereo it sounded like it was in kitchen.

It was in my back pocket

Hello all you lovely april ladies,

Remember me?? No?!?! Well im back anyway....

My goodness it has been months since i've been able to come online properly, so long my keyboard has cobwebs lol...

Hope that everyone is ok, tried to skim over a few threads and see how everyone is but can't remember a bleeding thing.

Thank you pesha for your sending me your new number...

Sorry to hear that octo is leaving and ellie and cd are taking breaks... you all must have know that i was coming back ;)

Well Tianna is big big big and her first tooth is just showing under the skin like it wants to break through. She sits up unaided for about ten seconds and has fallen off the settee bad mother allert
Mia is going to start part time nursery on the 27th (have to do play and stay and then she will go for an hour a day until the 15th of oct when she goes for 2and a half hours a day) how confusing!!

I have a finally received my loan so that i can buy a new tv, washing maching(coming today) hover,(all of which have broken) rug and paint over the artwork that Mia has kindly drawn on the walls.

Now its the count down to xmas birthdays and anniversaries so the saving has started and the pannic is on

Well that is everything to date.... hope you are all ok... and now that pc is back up and running i should be able to keep up a bit more.

xxx

Peshatlast · 05/09/2007 12:19

Hi bubblez good to have you back.
Think D is my only baby who hasnt been dropped or fallen off something but still plenty of time yet!

Right off to town i think to scour the (crappy) shops for something abit cheaper than the next top! I've ordered it as back up but will try and find something better if I can and I need an arm cover up-er anyway!

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 12:23

hi bubblez, yes of course we remdember you, you were having pc probs, glad you have them sorted
(It's Katy44 btw x)

bubblez · 05/09/2007 12:27

Hello Katty i wondered who the SPB was lol... How are you and bubba?

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 12:39

We're fine thanks - no sitting up yet though can feel his back muscles working when I sit him up but plenty of smiles and laughs

tcmummy · 05/09/2007 12:42

katy - hope you're feeling better still

dippy - You sound like you're having a stressy time hon. Thinking of you and praying for you lovely xx

pesha

norma - I bought more NAPPIES yesterday!! v v excited and can't wait to get them as I'm struggling to dry them with all the crap weather. Got lollipop bamboo ones and a couple of ella's house (?) hemp ones to try (have you tried/heard of those??).

Bubblez - hey there! nice to see you!

ellie - hope you're ok. I'm v v that I've got to work now and can't make J's do.

Hi everyone else.

Not much time on here recently, thinking of you all though. Doing lots of overtime already and it's only my 3rd week at the job! I'm knackered. dh has taken t out in the pushchair for a couple of hours and I've demolished a packet of choccy bics!

tcmummy · 05/09/2007 12:44

bubblez - it's eca btw

SPB - T is sitting up now, but no sign of rolling yet! lazy lump!

nappynuttynormabutty · 05/09/2007 12:45

Hi bubblez - nice to see you again

Eca - love my bamboo nappies (from flame - her tie dye ones) and a couple of others. Haven't tried the Ella's house ones...are they the bumhuggers...i liked the look of those but heard some bad reviews. Have a hemp baby beehind but it feels really rough...not too keen on it tbh...dh seems to like tho . Am getting into Cuddlebuns...which is bad cos you can't buy them in the uk (have had to get 2nd hand ones!)...trying not to buy the gorgoeus ones i've seen in the US!

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 12:46

tie dye nappies
and you are sooo deserving of your name!!

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 12:55

HI ECA
sorry for shouting

tcmummy · 05/09/2007 12:59

norma - yeh, they're the bumhugger ones. They were lovely and soft though (and cute and purple inside ), I thought they were fleece at 1st. Hope they're ok! I got them (well, mainly coz they were cute!) but my 'official' reason was they looked like they would dry a bit quicker than the bamboos ( just realised how stupid that sounds! They looked like they'd dry quicker, but who knows!) Ha!

Will have to have a look at the Cuddlebuns! Although I'm spent up for now when it comes to nappies! Had to sweet talk dh

tcmummy · 05/09/2007 13:00

Hi SPB - you always shout, it's all that fur in your ears... you can't hear how loud you are

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 13:50

YOU WHAT??

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 13:51

Am having my wheelie bin washed - is it sad that that makes me excited?

StealthPolarBear · 05/09/2007 14:29

T has been weighed and has put on some weight - back to where he was when we all got ill

elkiedee · 05/09/2007 16:17

LOL at the thread. Hope Ellie you manage to get your house tidy and Dippy that whatever is bothering you is sorted out. And that the christening goes well. Welcome back bubblez.

Pesha, good luck on Friday, SPB good news re T's weight.

dp is back up to Kings Lynn today. We had a lovely morning in a park with a new mummy friend and her baby, despite the sun refusing to come out to play until I was nearly home again. But I'm a bit annoyed with myself for somehow contriving to lose my keys, I had to get my dad to come and let me back in [embarrassed] I've found a spare set at home but am still a bit upset with myself for being so stupid.

D is screaming but when I look at him it appears to be experimenting with making noises, he doesn't seem unhappy. Not that I'm paranoid or anything.

Kneehighinnappies · 05/09/2007 16:25

hello hello hello!
Great new's seems that Lola is teething and is one of those horribly dribbly, grizzly crying all the time babies, yay!

Can't wait for Zed's turn

I am FAMOUS!!!!!
As a Ubermummy it was only a matter of time befroe the presses started to turn to me for some advice on being pregnant, so here is my "PUBLISHED" two pence worth........

can you tell I'm excited?

Ok and so they spelt my name wrong and got my age wrong and I look like a crazed 14year old in that picture, but that's not the point..............I'm famous, mother's of twins everywhere will be rushing out to buy pillow's

How tragic Am I?!?
How sad is it that that is the only picture that exsitis (other than when I was in hospital) of me and my babies, and dd1 isn't even in it!
