Well-at least you made me smile Phoenix!
He went to sleep at 2.30. woke at 6.30, so at least I got some sleep.

Have you gone dairy free yet EPPM?

mustrunmore · 15/02/2009 09:59

lol, thats filled hte thread up a bit!
Poor you EPPM. Ah the joy of babies. My friend came fri/sat; she's due very soon with second, and I think seeing these boys together has terrififed her!!

Got a nice val card, he hated the one IO got him, we were gonna have a takeaway treat but I gorgot and took my friend out for a huge baked spud at luchtime, so i wasnt hungry enought to justify takeaway at teatime We watched a film, with ds1 hanging over the staris saying not tired

Frizbe · 15/02/2009 10:58

at the mega posts, damn phones eh Phoenix, I think I need to update mine soon, so I can use for web, sigh, I'm getting sucked into this technology thing.

for the colic EPPM, its not nice, glad you did manage some sleep though.

Well dh organised someone to bbsit for us yesterday, so for 2nd time this year (although trade fairs don't really count) we got out together for a few hours Had lovely breakfast out, did new Goth/Alternative shop in Belper for a look round, got some new socks (Jas and Flame will be pleased to hear, Purple n Black!) She has some lovely red n white spotty 50's style dresses with net underneath in there and best of all loads of fabby high heal shoes that fit my huge size 8 feet (cause they have to fit all the trannies as well eh!!) but other than the socks I didn't get anything. We perused the farmers market and got nice quality food, did a local nice furniture store, again somewhere you don't take kids into, then out to Scarthin books for a browse in peace, with coffee and cake. I feel totally pampered

Phoenix · 15/02/2009 11:42

Ah peace. Lewis has gone up to his bedroom to play, he's never done that before. Maybe it's because i've banned most of his toys from downstairs

I got a decent deal on my mobile tariff. I rang them last night to see about getting some mobile internet time. I had 500 mins and 1000 texts for £35 a month. I've now got 600 mins, unlimited texts and mobile internet for £35 a month

for feeling pampered Friz.

Glad i made you smile EPPM

mustrunmore · 15/02/2009 15:31

Thats sounds like mt kinda day friz
Very excited; we're starting a jogging club in April. Will split into 2 ability groups and take it in turns to go with each group then swop over IYSWIM. Strtaight after class on a sat. Just done the posters Its going to be fun!

Frizbe · 15/02/2009 20:13

that sounds great MRM, if I lived nearer I'd join you!

Phoenix, good deal, I really must try and take mine in sometime soon and get an upgrade.....

Off to Butlins w kids and dh (don't fall over we're feeling brave and leaving staff to open up for 1st time! I had to prize dh's fingers off the keys tonight....) tomorrow for the day, so hurrah for family day out and hurrah for day off together

Jas · 15/02/2009 20:53

Wow Frizbe. A couple day and a family day. Sounds great And good fr you for getting away from the shop for a bit.

Phoenix. I got all excited when I saw there had been 18 posts since my last one, too!

CSWS - How is the work situation for Mrcsws? I hope he has found something else...

Jogging thing sounds good mrm.

CantSleepWontSleep · 15/02/2009 20:58

My new phone gives me 50 mins (I had 100 before, but rarely used them), 150 texts (I had 50 before) and unlimited internet for just under £25 per month.

Dh had about 4 days working on something diff for his old client Jas, but nothing else in the pipeline.

We're off to my parents tomorrow for half term. Not sure yet when we'll be back.

Jas · 15/02/2009 21:02

I hope you are keeping him busy at home!

Have a god holiday.

We're going out most days this week, catching up with friends who moved to Hertford tomorrow.

mustrunmore · 16/02/2009 08:04

god i couldnt live on 150 texts a month.....

ds1 would give anything to go to butlins

EachPeachPearMum · 16/02/2009 09:03

erk- mobile tarriffs are like gobbldigook to me!
I probably need a new tarriff and a new 'phone- anyone on O2?
I am on ancient tarriff of DH's- 30 mins and 10 free texts It is about 10 years old... and I never seem to use them up either.
Will probably use more now I'm home for a year.

A better night- only a little fussiness, with 10 min or so crying... so not sure what is going on.
I haven't gone dairy-free... have cut down dramatically, but it is killing me tbh. I am starving- lost 2 stone in 14 days now. Tis the feeding of course.

csws- TMI- his poos are really yellow- proper bm colour... could it really still be dairy? I would have thought greenish for allergy or intolerance...

EachPeachPearMum · 16/02/2009 09:12

Have a lovely time Frizbe!

mustrunmore · 16/02/2009 09:19

at the 2 stone.
That tariff wouldnt last me a morniing!!

Jas · 16/02/2009 09:23

30 mins and 10 texts would last me a month or so

Frizbe · 16/02/2009 22:31

MRM (slap) EPPM is loosing baby weight, that thing that you lost in the months after giving birth too, honestly woman

CSWS have a lovely time

Well can report we had a lovely day all chilled out and enjoyed ourselves, dd1 also managed to go down her 1st flume and also dinghy flume without major tears or tantrums too Just got my dinner free and all the kids puddings too, due to a piece of 'complimentary plastic' I found in my tea at Little Chef (there really wasn't anywhere else to eat, Lincolnshire shuts for winter and sadly Hestons menu has not been rolled out to the rest of the UK yet, sigh....)

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2009 22:31

Too many messages!!!

EPPM - try chiro for colic.

Any of you sent me a book?

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2009 22:32

TEN texts?!?!

Jas · 16/02/2009 22:40

Just checked my phone, and I have sent 10 texts since 2 Jan. I guess I'm in a minority then??

Out all day, lots of playing in the park.....ds is still up My plan has failed.

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2009 22:41

So he doesn't make a good dog?

EachPeachPearMum · 16/02/2009 22:57

mine's still up too Jas gah

Jas · 16/02/2009 22:57

Not today.

Mind you he has been a little nightmare all day. As son as we got home he managed t get int the kitchen and empty a whole bottle of oil in my clean washing basket. Again. Sigh.

I'm going to tie him up in the back garden tomorrow if he isn't any nicer

Is Flameboy in his own bed tonight?

Flamesparrow · 16/02/2009 22:58

At the moment

Argh for the clean washing!! Mine has bounced the entire day

EachPeachPearMum · 17/02/2009 01:50

OMG Jas! What a nightmare.

Flame- chiro? or cranial osteopath?

CantSleepWontSleep · 17/02/2009 06:01

mine has been up for an hour.
