the TV remote is in the freezer, your car keys are down the loo, and there are little smears of food at knee height down each corridor!

Dh actually nevr does anything to intentionally annoy me. And I've only ever seen him in an epic strop maybe 8-10 times in 10 years. He is getting much snappier laely though

Just tried to do first run ina week; only managed 20mins Am sooo pissed off with myself. Will get back on later.

Flamesparrow · 15/03/2008 20:17

for the 20 mins

I'm not entirely sure if it is intentional with DH, or if I assume it is

mustrunmore · 15/03/2008 20:22

And dh is too sore to fix my xtrainer cable, but is unwilling to let me do it
I think I'mjust going to go to bed with Wuthering Heights.

I'm a bad bad person... DS came down, temp and looking a bit dodgy, but had some calpol and was happy n bouncy. He lay down on the sofa, and his eyes were rolling in a funny way - I thought he was doing it to be cute (he does that) - then I realised it was just temp and tiredness

mustrunmore · 16/03/2008 07:57

Thats not being bad.I do things like that all the time. Is he ok today?

We had night from HELL. Dont need to bother youwih the details, except amongst uit imagine a small boy screaming 'i hate you' at 3am

Mind you, he's just done hisfirst ever dry night With a loo trip before the tantrum!

mustrunmore · 16/03/2008 09:29

Frizbe, given how much you favour the wiggles in the Frizbehousehold, do you have a dvd that I could borrow now we have a machine that plays notquiteoriginals? Ds1 has got a right bee in his bonnet ever since I mentioned the tour

CantSleepWontSleep · 16/03/2008 16:59

Can you all think positive thoughts for me please. Had tummy ache all last night and a tiny bit of blood stained cm this morning. Doesn't sound much, but is exactly what I had when I lost first baby.

Scan is 2pm tomorrow (will be 11+2, so this is scheduled 12 week scan).

DontDreamItBeIt · 16/03/2008 17:33

I'm right here, thinking warm and cosy positive thoughts csws. Remember I bled with two of mine, and it was fine, as did Dame, this time round.

Phoenix · 16/03/2008 17:53

Everything's crossed and thinking positive thoughts csws.

Flamesparrow · 16/03/2008 18:45

Sending all the positivitiness in the world

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Frizbe · 16/03/2008 20:00

All fingers X'd and positive thoughts for you here CSWS.
Hope you enjoyed Vantage Point? looks great on trailers.

Flame, I guess your dh wasn't quiet as dh was talking WOW with him, I'm guessing he's a bit like me too, in that if I can't find a common ground with someone I tend to not bother attempting to talk, as I figure I'll just bore the poor person senseless anyway and make an arse of myself in the process, so its easier to stay quiet.

MRM well you could if I could find the damn thing the Wiggles in the Jungle DVD has gone AWOL? Shame as Steve Irwin was quite funny on it we do have wiggly Xmas, but it jumps halfway through back to the begining, due to child scratching, you're welcome to borrow it if you like though?

PS: I like Pink and Brown together too, shame we only have one brown thing though

SIL and BIL came over today with nephew. Dd2 now has her last birthday present, a fantastic Mamas and Papas pushchair, which is better than her actual one raincover the lot on it, we have very spoilt dollies Had to laugh at teatime too, as they're dieting and so brought their own tea with them packet pasta, they then spent the whole of tea eyeing up our lovely fahitas which I'm sure don't have that many more calories in them (I even had 'eat yourself skinny' parmesan cheese on mine, with minimal sourcream) and I did rasps n strawbs for pud, with lowfat yog.
I like to think that changing my 'diet' as a lifestyle type thing rather than doing it for x weeks, till I go on hols and put it all back on again, will work, if you know what I mean?

EachPeachPearMum · 16/03/2008 21:51

erm- what is all this pink and brown thing you like???
Am confused! Are you still talking about clothes? ('shame we only have one brown thing'...?)

Dd has yet another ear infection gah!

csws- hope all is well, and everything is crossed for you. Will be thinking of you tomorrow xxx

Frizbes dd1 owns an entire wardrobe of pink clothes. And one brown t-shirt.

EachPeachPearMum · 16/03/2008 23:16

Ah, thank you. Does the pink thing happen automatically? What if you discourage it? does that make it worse?

OP posts:
DontDreamItBeIt · 16/03/2008 23:42

It is in their genes

DD1 never went throgh pink stage.

DD2 at 7 is still a pink girly girl.

I did dress her in pink as a baby, as I was sick of them boh being mistaken for boys.
It didn't help, but maybe she absorbed the pink thing from then

CantSleepWontSleep · 17/03/2008 08:01

Thanks everyone. Will obv let you know how I get on.

We enjoyed Vantage Point Friz. The reviews of it haven't been that great I don't think, and they are right in that we never find out why the people are doing what they are doing, but it is good nonetheless, and lots of dishy men which can't hurt .

DontDreamItBeIt · 17/03/2008 13:44

Sorry....I meant to post earlier to say I hope it goes well today. Thinking of you csws.

CantSleepWontSleep · 17/03/2008 16:09

All is well .
One healthy looking baby kicking and punching the air! They put me at 11+6, which means I was pregnant before we even had sex! Do you think I should call the papers?
Due date now 1st Oct.

Phoenix · 17/03/2008 16:13

EachPeachPearMum · 17/03/2008 16:17

That's great, read earlier but didn't get chance to post, have been thinking of you though.

Just to keep you up to date I'm 28wks tomorrow and people have started to notice at last

No idea what else going on so hello to everyone else

Oh yes, we don't do pink in this house

DontDreamItBeIt · 17/03/2008 17:10
Grin
Frizbe · 17/03/2008 22:19

Ah that explains things then, genetically pink

Yay CSWS, can we start taking bets on your actual due date now then?

How can you be my twinny Dame if you don't DO Pink

EPPM {{{{hugs}}}} for the ear infection, lots of nurofen your end then

dd2 seems a bit off her food here? dd1 was whingy before nursery and trying it on again afterwards, although we had a very funny incident earlier, she came downstairs, going 'Am I going to die? will I die, am I dying?' so we managed between wobbly lips and verge of tears questioning to us, to find out that she'd touched an un plugged plug by accident. Dh took her back upstairs and explained once again how electricity works and that if you stick your fingers in the socket you will die etc, bless her

EachPeachPearMum · 18/03/2008 01:02

awww, friz- bless! Must be hormonal as that made me well-up!

Flamesparrow · 18/03/2008 16:34

I was pregnant before we had sex with DD too!
