Northernlurker · 12/01/2009 18:26

SPB - must be because they're all on Moldies with Oooggs

Lily Marie makes me think of 'Lili Marlene' - very old song from the 1930s I think???

Great that dd was so happy at school Eddas - well done you for raising such a confident and poised little lass!

We should get them to check in every half day or rumours will fly

geordieminx · 12/01/2009 19:13

I'm here.

Very sore and feeling very sorry for myself

oooggs · 12/01/2009 19:13

I'm here - but busy discussing loft stuff with dh back later

oooggs · 12/01/2009 19:15

oh gm - how did it go?

Maveta · 12/01/2009 19:29

Happy New Year ladies! Hope you had a fab xmas and all the rest of it. I´ve been flitting around MN as some may have vaguely spotted but mostly - - reading (whispers - have been rather pathetically totally absorbed by the whole twilight series ) of an evening. And trying hard not to look at MN during the day (not always succeeding) at work as I skived a fair bit at the end of last year and now really need to buckle down.

So pleased to hear your news SPB and also excited to hear about the new arrivals for you guys, Elkie and oooggs, when they arrive

POTC - or is it CMHAYP?? - i´ve obviously missed something big you are going through, hope you are ok x (sorry, it slipped out..)

I´m having a bit of a - i don´t know what you´d call it - existential crisis- wondering where my life is going - trying to figure out what I want workwise type of situation. Boss is thinking of opening an office in Miami.. and wants to speak to me about the possibility of me (well me, dh and N) going over there. All a bit but don´t think it would be til next jan so lots of time to think about it.. but it´s a bit scary/exciting/causing a lot of mental upheaval over this way. Craziness.

Otherwise it´s life as usual, N is signing to go to the toilet loads now, though no plans to get rid of the nappies for a good while yet, I went to meet his nursery worker on friday and explained his signs (something dh allegedly did months ago but blatantly he so didn´t - most likely muttered something and didn´t go into any more detail ). She was great, really interested and willing to try them especially as he´s the youngest/ least communicative in her group so good for her to have a clue as to what he wants. Today she signed to see if he wanted the toilet, he said yes and she took him and he went! What a star! (if only for saving me from looking like a right loon )

Sexonlegs · 12/01/2009 19:45

Evening all

Thanks for all your wishes for tomorrow re my Mum. I have to say I am feeling nervous, but what will be will be.

Eddas, so glad G enjoyed her first day, bless her heart

Hi Mav, good to see you and glad you had a good festive season. Wow to Miami!! That would be a experience.

GM, sorry I have missed something I saw on FB you were going in to hospital. Nothing too awful I hope?

Oooggs, you know how to live

Hi Dooby, SPB, NL, Dippy and co. Hope you are all tickety boo.

All ok here, although K has a cough... again Grrrr. Only seems to come on at night and never wakes her up, but disturbs me - aren't I selfish!!

CaptainDippy · 12/01/2009 19:54

Not selfish SOL - I know the feeling. DH never even stirs, but I wake up at the slightest sound

Ooooh, Mav - Miami - Exciting!! I know exactly what "crisis" you are referring to btw - I sometimes feel my life has no point, but to nag, clean, cook, change nappies, play games, do jigsaws etc etc .... what was the point of my ever going to University!!!? Ahem. Sorry. This isn't about me. Wahey to the toilet signing though - good stuff

How are you GM?? Did it go ok? Hug. xx

Where are oooggs and Elkie!!?

elkiedee · 12/01/2009 20:07

I wouldn't expect any news from me for a while yet, I will instruct dp to post when there is any - still 2 weeks to due date - you and my antenatal thread will be first to know. There was a gap in January babies arriving but a few more in the last few days, and half of the NCT class babies have now arrived (that's 3 of 6) - I must check the contact list to see if it's the ones who were expected to come first!

StealthPo09IsHere · 12/01/2009 20:19

What's up GM?

geordieminx · 12/01/2009 20:48

had wisdom teeth out under GA. Had to cut my jaw bone.

I'm ok, just very sore and confined to bed for the next couple days.
