Hi ladies just got MM email (thanks) , sorry to worry you all.
Stressful day for dp on Fri , he still got his job for now but had awful day and was really down.
Last minute decision to come down to his mums for the weekend to give everyone a break.
He seems a bit better had a good chat with his mum and brother and i had good talk with his mum. It was all getting on top of me too tbh!
Anyhow he still has his job which is main thing for now!
Thanks for all your concern though it's lovely

Simps hope M feeling better!

Lily - Glad your ok, Hope the weekend makes things better for you. Sometimes time away can do wonders.

simpson · 14/02/2009 21:19

Lilyloo - glad things are ok ATM job wise for DP.

Wise move just getting away from it all.

Grrr DD just woken again with another temp.

Why does it always happen at night??

LuckySalem · 14/02/2009 21:21

Simp - Could her room just be too hot for her? Perhaps open a window in another room and let the cool air drift in? Otherwise maybe ringing NHS isn't a bad idea.

simpson · 14/02/2009 21:24

her room is quite cold TBH.

Temp is not as high as last night is 38.8 and have just given calpol and water.

She seems quite chirpy...holding out Upsy Daisy for me to kiss She should be sleeping!!

LuckySalem · 14/02/2009 21:25

LOL - Yep thats what DD keeps doing to me when I think its bedtime she just lunges at me for a kiss and I'm trying my hardest to keep a straight face and say goodnight!

Hope you have a better night tonight.

madmouse · 14/02/2009 21:32

JKS was on facebook just now complaining about a bad cold.

Gingeme · 14/02/2009 22:13

Evening ladies. Just a quick one from me.
George slept 7.34-7.19 Wow!
Sorry if I'm not here for a few days my big boys are here and I'm gonna be soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo busy.
Take care all xxxx

madmouse · 14/02/2009 22:49

ginge you are timing his sleep with some precision lol

LuckySalem · 14/02/2009 22:51

See you when they've gone Ginge, hope you have a nice time and that George keeps sleeping through

simpson · 15/02/2009 11:31

Hi all

Grrr am shattered today Molly had a truly shocking night...

She seems quite chirpy this morning though

DH phoned in sick today as he is full of cold but it has not put me in the best of moods as it has brought back bad memories of when he was ill before....

Going to my mum's for Sunday dinner today, that should perk me up

Gingeme - Enjoy having your big boys around...

mixedmamameansbusiness · 15/02/2009 14:26

Afternoon all,

Lily... glad that everything is stable for the minute and you got a little time to de-stress.

Glad the little ones are eating so well... Ediz is also becoming very interested in food. Anything that we have he comes over for... he loves holding things and was eating and making a mess with egg yolks yesterday, wasnt so keen on the white which was great as i dont liek the yolk and am still on the losing weight thing and egg whites are 0 points with WW. Only 11 lbs away from goal now.

Had a lovely day with DH yesterday... he got me flowers which i really wasnt expecting and a card.. he wrote some lovely things in the card that actually made me cry. I didnt get him anything so forfeited my hair cut and colour and took him to the aquarium shop as we have tropical fish that he loovees and he has got some new fish and gadgets and gizmos for the tank. We went to the cinema and watched the Benjamin Button film which i thoroughly enjoyed and went to a new Turkish restaurant that has opened lovely food and decor but awful awful service... there is not one person in charge and most people left disapointed... DH and I spent the whole time talkign about how we would run a restaurant, seems we have a joint passion here want to write them a letter as i want them to remain open as the food was lovely but cant imagine people going back if they dont improve. Strange that i feel quite personal about it.

Anyway... my mum will be bringing the boys back in a bit so better go...

AngeChica · 15/02/2009 16:06

Hope everyone having nice weekends / sunday dinners etc.

We went to the local beach today - DS did loads of walking. It was a great practice arena for him as when he fell over he didn't hurt himself! Have posted a video on FB {shameless proud emoticon].

He's sparko in his cot now!

we had a chinese takeaway and watched DVD last night. I crashed and burned early though as v v tired.

LuckySalem · 15/02/2009 16:27

Such a cute vid Ange

Just popping onto say YEY!! 3-1 Everton lol

madmouse · 15/02/2009 17:00

Ange that is soooooo cute you are right to be proud

Housemum · 15/02/2009 17:19

Lily - glad to hear DH still has his job - bet that's a relief.

Mixedmama - good news on the WW - well done

Back to work - am clearing out garage as can hardly squeeze past to get to freezer (we only have a little fridge in kitchen so our old fridge/freezer is in garage). Have Freecycled some underlay, several storage boxes and a pair of speaker stands! Binned some "artwork" of DD2 (obviously kept the good bits). There is now a floor to walk on!!!!

simpson · 15/02/2009 17:56

Ange - what a cute video

Housemum - well sone on the clearing up!! Need to do some here

Molly just gone to bed, she seems marginally happier today and ate her roast dinner which my mum's dog loved as she sat below her waiting for food to drop

LuckySalem · 15/02/2009 19:51

Ladies - Tesco's has their baby fair on at the mo and I've just had bargain.

A toybox filled with 102 huggies nappies and 2 packs of wipes £15

LaTrucha · 15/02/2009 20:06

Hello ladies!

Well, the 'monsters' actually seemed quite nice and well-behaved this time, although I was only withthem for an hour as the little one got ill and they had to go home. They and Sabela got on like a house on fire. I am constantly amazed by how much she likes people! She must get bored when we're at home together.

DH ill in bed all afternoon. Very unusual for him. Our 'let's make a baby' plans seem jinxed this month. Oh well. I have never found TTC a whole lot of fun!

I'd better go to bed as I have two to look after now - what with Sabela teething. I've got a sore throat too.

See you in the morning.

I'm going to try and check out that video now ANge...

LaTrucha · 15/02/2009 20:09

Super cute. He's an amazing walker! When did he start again? Can't wait for Sabela to do it.

Hoping those socks arrive tomorrow Madmouse!

madmouse · 15/02/2009 20:14

I hope so too LaT, dh was asking if they had, must be soon
