Thanks MHC....never known her to sleep as much

MacDonald BTW...so everything was bright red, green and blue...cushions are a nice idea!

I thought there was a postal strike?! I just got my post, with my lovely Berry Plush! My dd is wearing it now (look at my profile) and she loves it! I can't usually get her to wear a real nappy!

Hope the moving is going ok bumper. I moved when dd was 2 weeks old and it was shitty, so I know how you must feel! Hope you haven't found any spiders!

Charlie999 · 04/10/2007 15:22

Ahh pic is sweet Holly!

Meant to ask - who are the new members of the June 07 group on FB?

I didn't get any post today....appearently strike doesn't finish till next Wednesday...and I've got loads of e-bay auctions finishing this weekend...ARSE!

postal strike is annoying. it's not as if we actually get a good service here anyway, and it sounds to me like they earn plenty, if they want something to moan about there's always 70 hours a week as a chef.

Have just had a 1 hour nap with baggins. I knew he wouldn't sleep for ages, massage or not. and miserable git DH and the boys have been running up and down stairs and banging the front door and just making as much noise as they can. but I won't be able to complain because I've had a nap.... He has man-flu and is annoying me. I have the same bug and I still have to do stuff (like BFing for example)

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

SORRY!

daisyandbabybootoo · 04/10/2007 17:20

ria I sympathise...men are crap at being ill, or should that be they're VERY GOOD at being ill!!

MHC, enjoy the bongo...my friend had one and we camped with her a few times. It was great when the weather was less than perfect.

Highburn House nr Wooler Northumberland

Glenbrittle, Skye

Waren Mill, Northumberland

To name but a few!!

daisyandbabybootoo · 04/10/2007 17:22

sorry Charlie....

DD has been very grumpy and she slept a lot on Tuesday afternoon and yesterday. She has a huge swelling on one of her legs which seems quite sore. She's back to her cheery self today though.

foxybrown · 04/10/2007 17:26

ouch, poor DD Daisy! Was glad you did that list - reminded me to take lo next week. I've emailed you BTW.

Charlie999 · 04/10/2007 17:26

Thanks Daisy...she's asleep again...but hopefully will be ok tomorrow then...her left leg (pneumococcal) is also very sore, red and swollen....still very clingy as well which is horrible when not even her nan can hold her

Jamantha · 04/10/2007 17:46

DH brought a kangeroo costume back as a gift for DD. But it's way too big at the moment

fab costume! if anyone spots a reindeer one anywhere let me know!

daisyandbabybootoo · 04/10/2007 18:25

bumper, I can't believe you are still here! Haven't you got a house to move tomorrow?

Are you organised......

gas/elec/phone cancelled/set up for new house?
mail re-direction done?
change of address to all relevant banks/docs/dentist etc etc etc?

...just making sure your baby brain is working!

daisyandbabybootoo · 04/10/2007 18:27

fab costume btw Jamantha.

I feel like a glass of wine tonight.

Would I be a bad mother to trail the DCs out to the offy when we should be getting ready for bed???

bumperlicious · 04/10/2007 18:32

I'm feeding! (managed to get her on with a combo of rocking and singing)

gas/elec/phone cancelled/set up for new house?
-phone done, elec tomorrow when we'll give a final reading
mail re-direction done?
-done
change of address to all relevant banks/docs/dentist etc etc etc?
-we'll do that in slow time as we have a redirection so not urgent

thank for the thought though!

sputnik · 04/10/2007 19:12

Probably wouldn't look good Daisy.You're goingto haveto hit the lavander cordial again.

Arse my spacebar is fucking up now

sputnik · 04/10/2007 19:15

Yuo've probably been through thisBumper, but is it possible she's overtired when you have feeding problems?

Jamantha · 04/10/2007 19:26

Well done on feeding Bumper.

Oh and Happy Anniversary, Sputnik! (See today's google page if you haven't already)

sputnik · 04/10/2007 19:33

Thanks Jamantha! Didn't knowthat

sputnik · 04/10/2007 19:36

Luckily i'm not quite as old as the real Sputnik, but like the original I have, ahem, been around a bit

daisyandbabybootoo · 04/10/2007 19:43

sputnik, have you tried hoovering your laptop?

Mine had sticky keys and the fan was on constantly and it kept crashing from overheating. I hoovered it and hey presto it's fine again! The insides were full of fluff and crap.

Jamantha · 04/10/2007 19:46

I know I need to clean my keyboard Daisy as keys keep sticking, and yesterday I noticed the laptop was getting hotter than normal. From what you've said it sounds as if a good clean out might sort that problem as well. Cool!

sputnik · 04/10/2007 19:52

Maybe I should try that. It's getting frustrating correcting all the time, especially 1 handed

daisyandbabybootoo · 04/10/2007 19:59

I think the fact that mine sits on a furry throw all day isn't doing it any favours, sucking in all the loose fluff when the fan kicks in.

terry squares are pants at keeoing in explosive poo! We've had a major radioactive dripping down the leg all over mum leak this evening.....Mmmm nice!

Jamantha · 04/10/2007 20:30

Glad we didn't get terry squares then. Ew!

Though I doubt the poo was particularly radioactive
