Morning

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRISTAN

No Erin isn't walking but in the last few days she has started standing unaided and taking 3-5 steps. She doesn't seem bothered that Jack is walking/running around. She has been climbing in the sofa etc... for ages and now Jack can do it too (don't think she is impressed with that!!)

hope you are having a fab time in the sunny south west ellie

StealthPolarBear · 27/04/2008 12:02

mammyjo - keeping my fingers crossed for a quick surgery date. Glad the pain is better.
Eca, I know how that feels, poor T Hope he is better very soon.

Doobydoo · 27/04/2008 12:20

hI eCA HOPE T PICKS UP SOON.
i ALSO HAVE FINGERS CROSSED mJ FOR QUICK SURGERY DATE.
hOPE YOU OK cd????????????

penpotEca · 27/04/2008 12:37

hi oooggs, spb & dooby!

T has been sleeping for 3 hours!! I'm hoping it's the "i've-been-poorly-and-not-slept-catch-up" sleep! Rather than the "I'm-still-poorly-and-am-going-to-be-grouchy-all-day-and-now-I've-slept-I-can-be-up-all-night" sleep!

spb - what are you up to today for the birthday boy?? Did you do the hedgehog cake in the end (sorry if you have already posted this!)

StealthPolarBear · 27/04/2008 12:47

I didn't because we cancelled his party. Was going to do it next week but Granny and Grandad are away so not sure what to do for the best. We've just had a candle in a mini roll for now

oooggs · 27/04/2008 15:00

katy - he won't remember and you can have a party soon when all are well and gps are about

StealthPolarBear · 27/04/2008 15:46

Yes, could have a 13mo party or smoething like that
He's just guzzled down 2 yoghurts, hopefully on the mend!!

penpotEca · 27/04/2008 17:05

Aww, actually candle in the miniroll sounds cute!!

Anyway, the lucky lad gets 2 birthdays then!

NorthernLurker · 27/04/2008 17:13

Happy Birthday Tristan!

Usual busy Sunday here and I'm just popping in briefly - B is emotying the chnaging bag as we speak and I need to go look out some work clothes.

Eca - hope little T is better soon

Dippy - how's the packing going? Don't stress - just pack two t-shirts per child, waterproofs andswimming costumes - plus nappies and a vat of calpol. That'll see you right. Glad P got her parcel - I think I put the recipt in so just take it back if you have hundreds - intriguing huh?

POTC - glad things are going well - that sounds lovely.

Mammyjo - good luck with your appointment.

Thanks for all the good wishes for going back to work ladies - it really does make a difference

cazboldy · 27/04/2008 18:35

Yep NL don't let them get to you x

cazboldy · 27/04/2008 18:36

How many hours are you doing? and when?

actually Caz thinking she will miss chatting to NL in the mornings

NorthernLurker · 27/04/2008 18:38

That's sweet of you Caz I'm doing 29 hours (which feels like too many now) over 4 days (which also feels like too many) I finish at 3 on thursday so i can get the girls from school and I have Friday off.

cazboldy · 27/04/2008 18:39

well I hope it all goes well anyway x

NorthernLurker · 27/04/2008 18:44

Thanks - I see my efforts at positive thinking aren't exactly paying off yet... that's better!

cazboldy · 27/04/2008 18:46

it's probably worse thinking about it..... You will be fine once you get there x

NorthernLurker · 27/04/2008 18:48

well I think I'll probably feel a lot better by this time tomorrow - i certainly hope so!

cazboldy · 27/04/2008 18:50

I'm sure you will x

They are lucky to have you.

mammyjo · 27/04/2008 18:54

NL, you will be fine, the thought is always worse than the reality! Will be thinking of you tomorrow morning xxx

Thanks for all the good wishes ladies, so kind of you all. It really does make a difference. Just hoping that the surgery will not be too far in the future, that way I will have less time to get worked up about it!! I am already getting stressed that we are going to have to cancel our holiday because of it Really need to pull myself together!

NorthernLurker · 27/04/2008 19:18

Thanks again
mammyjo - hope you can get a date soon - when is the holiday?

CaptainDippy · 27/04/2008 19:28

Stop stressing, MJ. xx

You too NL. xx

Evening all!

oooggs · 27/04/2008 19:35

wow NL - tomorrow it is then!!!

hi caz

dippy - how's the packing going

hope Tristan has had a good day

Pesha · 27/04/2008 19:43

Really glad you seem to be managing the pain with diet atm MJ, hope it lasts and you get surgery date soon.

Have read thread in a bluury haze, is it tomorrow you go back to work NL? Hope it all goes as well as it can and certainly a lot better than you're expecting

HAPPY BIRTHDAY T!!!

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY to all other babies i have missed over last few days

Am absolutely, totally knackered. Didnt get to bed till about half 3 last night, woke up at 6 and couldn't sleep, probably managed another 10 mins but that was it and been n the go ever since (thats me yawning btw!) POTC and the boys came to D's second party at my mum's this afternoon which was really nice, was lovely to have a few more dc there and weather actually stayed nice up until the end so they got to play in garden. Was like christmas as was joint party for D and my sister's dd and my mum always buys a M and N a little non-birthday present or 2 so they dont feel left out so me and my mum both bought Matthew and Joe a present each so they didn't feel left out either! There were bags and bags of presents being handed out round all the dc!!

The man POTC was talking about is not sofa boy but I will say no more! I was talking to sofa boy on phone last night like she said, strange conversation, not sure what it was all about! (Nothing to do with me being pissed of course!! ). Oh and I would like to point out that the reason I was tiddly and they weren't is cos POTC stopped drinking after 2 drinks and J was drinking very slowly, I'm not just a lightweight!!! And loving 'Pisha' SOL, cheeky mare!! Might have to name change when I'm feeling a bit more with it!

I so wanna go to bed but if I go sleep now I'll wake up about 10 and be awake half the night Roll on 9 o'clock!

Sexonlegs · 27/04/2008 20:11

Hi loves

Eca, lovely to see you. Hope T is better soon.

NL, all the bet of luck in the World tomorrow. Will be thinking of you.

MJ, hope you are ok. Must be awful having the thought of surgery hanging over you.Hope they can sort something soon.

Pisha party sounded fab. Hope you get some more sleep tonight. Don't know how you do it!!

Hope everyone else is ok.

Had a great day after a so so start. Went for a walk and pub lunch, and then we stopped at our local country park on the way back. B and K on great form.

Sad tonight, as have run out of Aptamil, so on to cows milk we go. Feels like the end of an era.

Not sure K is going to like it much; she doesn't seem keen on the taste on her cereal.
