Hello

Have just tried to catch up!

Pisha - Photo of D feeding is lovely. That's exactly how Izzy feeds in the morning too, it's so lovely

Dippy - Really sorry about your job Thinking of you and praying life sorts itself out for you.

SPB - Poor T Hope he's better soon.

Eca - Hope your T is better soon too.

Elkie - Poor little D, hope the teeth come through soon.

Good to see you Zazas

Caz - Sorry to hear the result of the appeal. Hope you sort things out for the best.

Oooggs - Hope you have a better night tonight.

SOL - Hope your night is ok.

Sorry and hello to anyone else I've forgotten

Izzy atm is wearing a babygro and a 2.5 tog grobag. Her room is about 20degrees. She doesn't seem to be to hot. Having trouble getting her antibiotics into her, she's pretty skilled and spitting it straight back out.

She really is such a joy though. I love her to pieces. She's so well natured and happy almost all of the time (sorry I'm getting a bit soppy, it must be late)

Off to bed now.

Night anyone still around xxx

AngeG · 10/05/2008 23:51

too even

Night Angeand Dippy

It is cute isn't it Ange. He starts off lying on his side next to me then rolls on to his front and sticks his bum in the air and then he gets bored and starts to crawl around then decides hes going to latch himself on again in some random, often awkward position

Meant to say he is sleeping with short sleeved/legged babygro, no vest and one blanket. Although blanket often gets wriggled out of!

When dd was a baby I always put her in a vest, think I thought it wad a rule or something - babies must wear vcests at all time! Remember scouring the shops for pretty vests so that when itwas hot I could take her T-shirt off and she'd still look cute. t never ocurred to meshe couldwear a pretty T-shirt with no vest!!

Pisha · 11/05/2008 00:12

Sorry for all typos!

MayPolerBear · 11/05/2008 06:53

that picture is lovely Pesha - and one for his 18th
Lol at the baby vest law!
Ange, apart from the soppiness, what else are you up to?
drum roll....we had a non-diarrhoea nappy this morning i think. Probably revert back later, but for now it's cheered me up.

CaptainDippy · 11/05/2008 07:33

Good news MPB Long may it continue ......

Meant to say a couple of thing last night .... pic of D feeding is soooo sweet Pisha

P is sleepingi n PJs (no vest) and she has a v.thin duvet in her cot, but more often thn not, sleeps without.

MPB, love the new name! V amusing.
Glad to hear of the non-d nappy - long may it last.

Pisha, gorgeous pic of D. Made me sad reading about your dog, but I totally understand where you are coing from. We have only got cats, but I sometimes find them a total pita!

Ange, lovely to see you and sounded so loved up with Izzy. x

Well, my crystal ball was wrong! Had a good night (sorry to those that didn't) and K is without temperature and far less snotty. [crosses fingers it lasts]!!!

My cousins' grandad died last night He was very sick and on morphine for the pain, so it wasn't unexpected

CaptainDippy · 11/05/2008 09:40

Morning SOL and MPB So sorry to hear about your cousin's Grandad MPB A release from suffering though. xx

It is a be-a-u-tiful day day here, the birds are singing, the sun is shinging and the man opposite is painting the outside of his house without a top on ....Phwoar!!!!!

very sorry to hear that spb

cazboldy · 11/05/2008 09:47

lol Dippy at you watching your neighbour

Well, Molly woke up crying, which is unlike her, I picked her up, thought she felt hot, and then she was sick all over me! We have had a bath together, and she has had a drink and some calpol, and some nurofen - I was a bit panicky, as she was a bit shivery, and after ds2 having a bad febrile convulsion, I am always worried when they are too hot

anyway, she seems as bright as a button now so will have to see how she goes.......

she usually just sleeps in a sleep suit/ pyjamas with no covers on as she kicks them off! but recently in this hot weather, she has just had a t-shirt on.

Have got to try and cut the grass today, as some of it is up to my knees! and I have a huge asda delivery in a bit too, so quite a busy day!

MayPolerBear · 11/05/2008 10:13

Hope she is OK caz, poor M
lol at you watching the man opposite dippy

runnyhabbit · 11/05/2008 11:11

well we got here Friday afternoon, and it has rained every single bloody day
thank god its a family hotel with soft play etc otherwise we would be going mad. The forecast is not good for the rest of the week either.

Hotel is very good though, lots of stuff for J, and computers with internet access for me, lol. It is nice just being the 4 of us though.

Take care all

maveta mamiguay I´ve emiled you my number if you still fancy meeting up

elkiedee · 11/05/2008 12:30

Ooh runny, that's a bit of a shame.

D was a bit perkier this morning - crawling into the kitchen to get the dustpan and brush and then starting to open all the cupboards. He then got a bit grizzly but I think that was a normal thing time wise (more than 3 hours after he got up) and has now had a resasonnable nap if he wakes up soon.

Must go and get myself dressed to take him out to meet his grandad in the park.

cazboldy · 11/05/2008 15:35

have fun at the park Elkie

Runny that's a real shame, especially as we have had a lovely week weather wise at home........

sorry if you didn't want to hear that!

cazboldy · 11/05/2008 15:37

Grass is about 2/3 cut.......it is lovely having a big garden, just wish I could afford a gardener!

asda been and all packed away.....

just having 5 mins before we go for a walk/ride with the pony

Molly is not well, poor little love, she has slept most of the day, and doesn't want to eat anything, but she is drinking and is trying to be happy and smiley, so hopefully she will feel better soon

CaptainDippy · 11/05/2008 16:40

Wish I could send you the man opposite to come and cut your lawn Caz!!

What a shame runny Glad it has been good so far thoguh Hope you get to meet up with MG

How's Molly now Caz?? Poor mite. xx

PillockOfTheCommunity · 11/05/2008 17:38

hello all

M has had 2 parties to go to on 2 days this weekend, led to a mad one

all's well here, except J is losing interest in bf He has already dropped the morning feed and is only still doing the night one because I'm encouraging it

MayPolerBear · 11/05/2008 18:08

hi piloock you party animal!

cazboldy · 11/05/2008 18:48

Molly has given up bf.... I yelled when she bit me, and she hasn't bothered since

especially as she is supposed to be my last baby

she is like a little person now though, not really a baby anymore

but she is still not walking unaided, she will be the slowest of all of them at that

CaptainDippy · 11/05/2008 19:45

No, no Caz .... I insist that P will be
