Think I have added some piccies - but as MrsJB said ha ha 6 of them sitting together for a photo wasn't going to happen!

ShowOfHands · 22/04/2008 08:43

Yes yes beautiful babies, aren't you clever etc etc.

Where's the cake?!?!?!

scootermum · 22/04/2008 08:43

Thats a lovely picture of Jorja I think..she looks so cute! And Callum and Beau are just gorgeous..Mae refused to smile for any pictures as during the group ones she decided instead, to scream her head off.

I'll see what I can find you Cam..Ive got a bath chair going begging if you want it?

Lupins71 · 22/04/2008 08:52

Lol Bet at the Rovers indeed No I am going smart respectable mother of two look - who doesnt actually have anything smart or black in her wardrobe - well not that fits anyway, start work tnite cant find my nice black Next boots anywhere, will have to squeee into slightly too small suit trousers and black Jumper, we have to hear black so im told, dp has been drinking in there and says they are all ok usual bunch of leachy (sp) old men with too much money and time on their hands

I will let you know how patches go, should be here in a few days I would have thought, I will be svelte for summer > and will not polish off chocolate in fridge

Am going back to bed this morning, dd gone back to school, so will crash out with ds - have to make bed 1st as clever dp thought it a good idea to throw A around soon after his milk which can out full force all over me in bed - lovely way to wake up

Must go and practice Betty & Angie make up in case smart and respectable isnt convincing

Creena · 22/04/2008 10:05

lol, yes, getting them all together could only be like herding cats, I imagine. Still, I was hoping that there would be the odd snapshot taken by someone with a camera that operates a little faster than a Box Brownie, perchance.......

AprilMeadow · 22/04/2008 11:24

Lups, THANK YOU SO MUCH for Ella's pressies. You are naughty! Just been down to sorting office to collect. Thank you , thank you, thank you xx

Good luck Lups if I dont get on before tonight..remember good bar maiding is all about the banter and a winning smile.And if that fails hoik em up high and give them a free packet of nuts with their pint!

Scoot reflects on her very short career as a bar maid and begins to realise why she was given the sack

TillyScoutsmum · 22/04/2008 11:35

Oh the pics are lovely... All 5 of them are trying to escape though (are they off to find lemon drizzle cake ?)

Good luck Lups - I worked in a bar when at Uni - loved it

SKYTVADDICT · 22/04/2008 11:58

Scoot - I've added one with M smiling.

Sorry Mum2G - I think we must have put camera away before you got there

Mrsjaffabiffa · 22/04/2008 12:28

Hello

Don't worry SKY, I have a lovely picture of George and Jorja together, as soon as I can I'll upload it.

Cake, SOH, sorry no time for a picture it all got scoffed...... yum!!!

Lupins71 · 22/04/2008 12:56

AM she is more than welcome, glad it got to you ok

Pics are cute of all the lo's together, they look so grown up A looks quite babyish compared to them little cutties

SCOOT it would take scaffolding to hoik my boulders back up where they should be lol

cameroonmama · 22/04/2008 20:21

Aaaaaahhh, don't they just look cute. There is just so much hair going on!I love the way LG&T has already got Beau doing the hoovering.

And I assume the pretty, well dressed and well behaved one on the right is Ella Meadow?? Callum looks too cute and Jorja is pretty as a picture, meanwhile Mae looks like she is making a bid for freedom.

LG&T I'm quite relieved frankly that Beau looks like he has as much hair as J has. Did I hear mention of a slight red twinge to his mop? I have to admit there may be a reddish shine appearing on J too.

Back to school today, back to school today - yippee, how lovely it was. J and I went shopping on our own to find him a raincoat, but failed miserably so he just had to get wet. Now its raining again and its a massive massive storm, thunder, lightning, torrential rain, and I don't like it Dh is out for the night until later... make it go away.

Mrsjaffabiffa · 22/04/2008 20:27

GO AWAY STORM.................Cam does not like you, come over here, I LOVE thunder and lightening.

Cam find a corner, put on some music and rock to the beat.

LookattheLottie · 22/04/2008 21:27

Oh dear lord keeping fit is hard work!

I went for a 4 mile run earlier, and yesterday and I'm really feeling the effects! Everything aches [Knackered Emotican]

I had some photo's done by a photographer recently and I picked them up today, C looks so lovely, but too grown up. It's on my profile. I want her to stay small in so many ways, but then I'm enjoying her so much at this age as I can do loads more with her. We had beautiful weather here today, sun shining and a pretty clear, blue sky all day long. Went into town and had a lovely day with C.

Went shopping twice over the weekend and have spent far to much money, which I should be saving to buy stuff for my new house. My wardrobes never loked so good though, or full!

I also went and put a deposit down on a ring today which will be a present from my parents for my 21st. It's stunning! It looks just like this only it's a dark green emerald stone instead of clear.

Right I'm so sorry I haven't caught up but I'm too tired tonight. I'm going for a bath, then I'll take the dog out and then I can get into bed! Night all x

AprilMeadow · 22/04/2008 22:10

Right now i have actually read through the thread and made notes....

SOH, 7am is a perfectly reasonable time to looking at/thinking about/be eating gingerbread. I am sucker for sweeties and its doesnt matter what time it is Are you all feeling better now or are you all still suffering with the nasty colds?

Lups, Ella thought the pressie were great and insisted (well pointed, wailed and moaned) that i let her have a drink in the cup. She tried to eat the heffalump and was very interested by the bib! OMG at A climbing the stairs. Ella is up our stairs like a shot, but will climb back down when asked. How is work going? Did you go for Bet or Angie?

Scoot, How are you feeling now? Are the cranberries working? Cant believe you are keeping Abby waiting for the KK's!

Cam, Piles - lovely! Not really sure what else to say on that matter! Am so pleased that all your belongings are going to be with you this week, i would have been tearing my hair out and would have forced dh to let me go buy new bits and bobs. LOL at J only climbing the one stair... wont be long until you are wishing that thats all he would do! and PMSL at him wieghing more than the dog - he is just gorgeous, i loved it when Jack was all chunky and cuddly. And yes i believe you did describe Ella! Moments later she was climbing up the leg of LG&T's MIL, where she ended up sat on her knee for a good while

MrsJB, am glad that you eventually got home safely, but what a bugger that your car is so far away and with all your stuff in it! How is the hair holding up? I know i have said it before but it was GREAT to see you all and i cant wait until the next time... August did you say? Will mark it in bold on calendar.

LG&T, hows things with you? You really are lucky to have such lovely inlaws. And you are right Beau is just a mini Grandad. Thanks again for last week and Dh says thatnk you for the cake went great with a cuppa.

Sky, great pictures of them all. Will try and up load mine this week.

Lookatthelottie, EXERCISE IS BAD FOR YOU!

Pebble, just wanted to wish you a happy birthday for tomorrow. Enjoy your day. I hope dh spoils you.

Big hello to any one i have missed off.

Had the accountants in this last 2 days and thankfully all is well. He asked how long i had been doing book keeping and that i had been doing a great job.... nothing out of place and nothing buggered up! very pleased . Just trying to get everything ready for Jack's 3rd birthday on thursday, wrapped all the pressies although have realised that i havent got a card for him.... whoops

Lupins71 · 22/04/2008 23:27

LW you must stop this madness it will kill you ( not really Im just jealous )The pic is gorgeous, 21 indeed!

AM I did wonder about the cup A has a heffalump on and it can get pretty interesting

CAM be brave, storm wont last long

Work was fab, I loved it was great to get out and was working with a talk o'holic 21yr old who was super friendly and helpful and told me to go out bevvying with her lol, the locals were great some hilarious banter, looking forward to tomorrow , got to try and unwind now and get to bed

Creena · 23/04/2008 10:15

Ooooooh, what lovely photos! They all look so cute and munchable! What a gorgeous bunch of babies there are here.

Lupins - glad that you're first night went so well and that you really enjoyed it!

LookattheLottie - what a beautiful little girl you have there. She's so photogenic! A little smasher, she is. Also, I can't believe that you're turning 21 already! I remember you posting when you were first pregnant and mentioning that you were away at Uni far from home and were 19 years old. I used to worry about you so much!

April - I hope Jack has an excellent birthday tomorrow! Three already? Where is the time going? Or am I getting old, as it seems such a pensionerish thing to say?

I've got my NT scan tomorrow. Feeling really very nervous. I'm still at that stage where I don't quite believe that I'm pregnant, even though I've got plenty of MS to prove it. DH is taking the day off and we're going to have a day out after the scan (hopefully - if all goes well). So keep your fingers crossed for me!

largeginandtonic · 23/04/2008 10:17

Have put meet up pics on my profile too

cameroonmama · 23/04/2008 12:28

Just popping in to say HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY Pebble I hope you have a wonderful day and get spoilt rotten.

Lupins71 · 23/04/2008 13:31

Happy B'day Pebble

Creena hope the scan goes well, fingers and toes crossed

I have just had a three hour kip - cant believe it, feel very refreshed, curled up with ds and gave him his milk and lost half the day lol, better get organised dd will be home in a coupke of hours and i've done bugger all

Creena · 23/04/2008 13:49

Yay! More fab pics!

Happy Birthday, Pebble - have a wonderful day!

Thanks, Lupins! I'm still feeling a mixture of excitement and worry but then that's the norm, it seems!

ShowOfHands · 23/04/2008 14:00

Just a quick one. Happy birthday Pebble and good luck Creena.

Just unpacking a few boxes left from the move and found something I haven't seen in a long time (my waistline?).

Anybody fancy seeing a very small part of my wedding video (just the ceremony), I've uploaded it to YouTube to show to some other RL folks? Tis here if you're interested. Also added our first dance footage here. We had a fab ceilidh.

Probably dull to anybody but me, but I had a figure and DH had kerazzee hair.

Be back later to catch up after unpacking more stuff.

largeginandtonic · 23/04/2008 16:30

SOH > you both look > so lovely > Lurvely dress too. Will show DD later, she will love it. Now post more often please, none of this pop in and out malarky.

Creena it will all be fine tomorrow, a lovely baby to see jumping around on screen. We will need pics please Have you bought the doubles kit for the P&T yet, the colours may change so it might be worth it

Lups glad the job was ok, it sounds great!

Cam did the storm go away? Do you need me to look out for a rain coat for J? Am off to Southampton tomorrow for a mooch, what size does he need? Beau is very red, redder by the day. He is mini granddad like April says!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PEBBLE!!! Hope you are doing something lovely.

LW C is very cute, very cute

Mrsjaffabiffa · 23/04/2008 18:16

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PEBBLE!!

and to Jackameadow for tomorow incase I don't get on in the morning. xx

Lups glad work went well.

Good Luck tomorow Creena.

Creena · 23/04/2008 18:53

Thanks ladies for all the good wishes. Will be adding the scan pic to my profile if all goes well. Fingers, eyes and legs crossed!

LG&T - I'll definitely be buying the P&T. The lovely AprilMeadow is selling me hers and it's all very exciting. We wanted to get a new pushchair for Conor anyway (the stupid Hauck one we bought has got absolutely rubbish shoulder straps on it - they only extend by about one inch and they're tight on him already. There's no way it would last him beyong the age of one!) so the doubles kit is an added bonus! I still have this odd feeling of disbelief at the thought of me pushing two of them around. [bamboozled face]
