Hi there. Thanks for all the well wishes. She is called Rachel Anne and she is doing really well. Gorgeous chubby cheeks!

Will catch up properly later, and will try to put a link to the pic DH has put on FB.

2Happy · 26/08/2008 13:58

Awww congrats DH . I've always loved the name Rachel for a girl (I'm sure RGee will agree ). Will look forward to pics. Hope you're feeling ok x

laughalot · 26/08/2008 14:24

Dragon congrats and what a lovely name glad you are doing well xx

Reggiee · 26/08/2008 14:38

Dragon - lovely to hear from you . What a lovely name - and spelt the correct way too . How you feeling? Hope you are recovering well from the CS and the lo's are helping look after their new sister.

Reggiee · 26/08/2008 14:41

Very quiet on the thread this weekend. Hope you were all having fun over the Bank Holiday.
Bit hectic here - lots of visitors and rushing about. Have my feet up today though and not at work.

Reggiee · 26/08/2008 20:01

Where is everyone?

I am talking to myself

Lal I need to send you some money. Can you email me your address?
Vino fancy a meet up soon?

Nothing on tv - might go to bed!

eandh · 26/08/2008 20:41

I'm here except Hattie poorly (again) so she woke everyone up at 3.50 screaming for an hour till I came downstairs and she snoozed on me (but scremaed if I moved) poor Ellie was desperate to go back to sleep and nodded back off at 5am and slept till 8am! She has such a bad cold, all her eyes look heavy and tbh she looks pissed off (she coughs so much she makes herself sick )

I took them to town to get Ellie new shoes for preschool (and grrr at Clarkes apparently they 'only' had those ones with the toys in the bottom in her size) lady showed Ellie and of course she loved them (admitley they were black patent and thats what I wanted) but ffs £30 (and shes lost one of the toys already!)

Then we went to WImpey for lunch (for them not me) and poor Hattie fell asleep eating her dinner, she literally was eating and then just conked.

Am of to Eastbourne for the April meet up tomorrow (well the plan is that we're going if I have another crap night sleep I may have to cancel )

laughalot · 27/08/2008 21:33

Ok dont shout at me but are we doing secret santa again this year

eandh · 28/08/2008 06:10

I'm in (if noone else wants to organise it I'm happy to coordinate )

ladytophamhatt · 28/08/2008 07:45

me too...

eandh · 28/08/2008 08:24

I still have 2 candles left that Vino sent me last year but the other 4 have been burnt to a molding waxy mess.

theSuburbanDryad · 28/08/2008 08:29

Me me me me me me can has Secret Santa pls!

I nominate...WILKIE to do it (cause she did a really good job last year )

Bought some sugar puffs yesterday as i keep getting dizzy spells and thought a sugar rush first thing in the morning would help prevent it. Imagine my disappointment when i realised they've reduced the amount of sugar they put in them! I had to put extra sugar on!!

eandh · 28/08/2008 08:38

Lol agt the sugar thing UD

Has anyone seen Wilkei around - was wondering how the job was going?

Wilkiepedia · 28/08/2008 08:55

Yo mo fos

I'm here, job sucks at the moment - it is really dull cos they have changed round since I got offered it so I am a bit of a spare part at the mo. However, a job share PA job is coming up that I am gonna apply for...

Secret Santa - I'll be in but happy to let EAH do it this time although I have to say, LAL, what are you on?? It's August!! (admittedly the weather is more Dec than Aug but still!)

On a downer at the mo. I think it is the job that has got me down - I was so excited and am just stuck with nothing to do

Did I mention that J fell top to bottom down our stairs?? He just missed his footing at the top and went over and over bouncing on every step like a rag doll. Thankfully he was just shocked but not hurt. Awful

Bummer about job, PA job sounds perfect for you (shame you dont live down here my boss is desperate for a PA 4 days a week and I can't/won't do extra hours so ideally she needs another person to do 2 or 2.5 days)

Its only 9am and they are driving me mad, HAttie is just rolling around crying if you even look at her and being touchy and Ellie is bored because we've been home the last few days because of H being ill.

Wilkie - glad to hear J's okay think most of them do it at least once

ladytophamhatt · 28/08/2008 13:39

I think all of my big dsses have done that wilkie.
Its a right of passage to boyhood

Reggiee · 28/08/2008 18:58

I'm cold. Is it still summer?

You're all back then .

Wilkie - soz to hear the job is a bit crap. It is early days though so will prob improve. Are your colleagues ok? What days do you work btw (thinking of a meet up!)?

Lal have Facebooked you my email add.

Yeah!! Secret Santa!! Let me have LTH again - I've loads more tat for her this year - I've been saving it specially .
Love talking about Xmas so I can brag about the bargainesque stuff I have squirreled away throughout the year. The tinsel will be in the shops next week.

Eah hope H gets better soon.

Need inspiration on what to do tomorrow with the lo. Any offers?

The house stinks of paint as the ceilings have been done. We're going to get P new room (when she moves to her bed) painted lilac next week. Give me a shout if you see any nice bedding / accessories which I could get.

eandh · 28/08/2008 19:01

Rgee - swimming, finger painting, cooking/baking, any local farms/play areas??

eandh · 28/08/2008 19:09
