LackaDAISYcal · 11/02/2009 21:12

YAY! Great thread title Daisy

PinkyMinxy · 11/02/2009 21:22

oops I'll get my coat..

LackaDAISYcal · 11/02/2009 21:27

routine; not much of one here either, other than eating and sleeping and occasionally getting dressed and leaving the house.

..in fact what little routine we did have has been kicked into touch by these ABs I'm taking. Bumble has been miserable all afternoon and has had four really squelchy nappies since teatime

sophie today

lol at 'other forums' yes but not the unmentionable one. been trying to curb my mn habit. and decorating takes ages as well

PinkyMinxy · 11/02/2009 21:32

OOh she's getting even more cute, Misdee!

Oh dear, 8daisy* I remeber that effect from having ABs for mastitis. How long is the course- not too long I hope.

DD1 went to bed with no bothher tonight-the needs a proper bed theory proved correct, methinks!

LadyBuzz · 11/02/2009 21:47

Yay I found you all. Hi Misdee what a cutie!
Daisy hope bumble improves along with you - How are you feeling now?
Pinky glad DD1 is settled in her new bed.
Re Ginger DS1 is ginger - very ginger in fact, red runs in both families so he had no chance bless him - he is gorgeous though I love his hair. We call him ginger always have done so when people call him it at school he will not care at all. In fact sometimes he answers to 'oy ginger' and not to his name can be tres embarrasing in public .
Jay is dark no signs of red at all!
Can't remember what I wanted to comment on from the last thread but was lol at alot of the BLW posts.
Bit manic here at the mo, trying to organise things for the christening on Sunday, have a buffet to make for 140 (we have massive families on both sides)on Saturday, should be fun. Looking forward to Sunday though.
Got my hair cut today - too short to tie back love it though its fab
Hi to everyone else

LackaDAISYcal · 11/02/2009 21:48

she's gorgeous misdee....as is minirosa

ABs only until Saturday thankfully and they are doing the trick as my wee is no longer like pondwater, the backpain has gone and my utter fatigue has disappeared (and I thought I was just knackered from having a new baby, but it was obviously this infection brewing for a while).

LackaDAISYcal · 11/02/2009 21:49

we need a photo of the hair vbab. I need to get mine cut; bumble hangs on it all the time like a little monkey

Ha ha. Love it.

chocolategal · 11/02/2009 21:58

Fab title thank you daisy and glad you are feeling better.
LadyB, that's a big christening, sure it will be lovely. We are having E christened on the 1st March and I'm struggling to find something to wear!

Lovely pics misdee & minirosa

Off to bed soon to try to get good sleep, am going to see the strictly come dancing tour tomorrow

barbareebaa · 11/02/2009 22:00

Lovely Sophie pic Misdee
Glad you're starting to feel better daisy
Need to see pics LB !!
Pinky pleased to hear DD1 went to bed no probs!!

No news here - might lurk and chip in if that's o.k.
OOh except boobs are so fabulous - has it been a week of fab boobs yet? Both are a joy to feed from, no pain so perhaps pain and probs was just them adjusting to doing a job - surely if t.t I wouldn't get a break like this from boob probs? Anyway just hope it continues because i feel like a new woman

Oblomov · 11/02/2009 22:02

Not sure I should be 'allowed' either ceebee.
Not thatI can do anything about it. But I don't want ds2 to be ginger. I don't want him to be teased. Like Dozy , unfortunately I do think it is a stigma.
Mind you I hope that neither ds is gay. Not that I give two hoots if someone is gay. Dh's nephew has just announced that he is. His father can not accept it. But I couldn't care less. But I do think that it makes life more .......difficult.

PinkyMinxy · 11/02/2009 22:04

that's good news, daisy!

v.of haircut, LB but not of massive buffet preparation!
Christening sounds lovely.

Toyed with the idea of naming days for ours, but they are so expensive.

I'm feeling quite strange at the mo, sort of drifting between panicky and numb.. am I going a bit funny in the head? P.evening to day at DS's and I barley said a word, felt realy sad for some reason.

No m today which was a relief. Took DD1 (and im of course)to TC soft play and lunch. had a good time. DD1 wore backpack firmly attached to buggy upon leaving!

LackaDAISYcal · 11/02/2009 22:12

great news on the boobs barb

OP posts:
LackaDAISYcal · 11/02/2009 22:13

Can you have a combined naming thing pinky. I'd like to do something like that, but it seems a bit daft now that DS is nearly 7!

OP posts:
PinkyMinxy · 11/02/2009 22:18

lol I am feeling some joy for barbs boobs, too!

I don't know daisy sounds like a good idea, butI judt don't know about 'family' things at the mo. Your DS may have settled into his name, by now- mine too, maybe!

ruthosaurus · 11/02/2009 22:22

Oh, tf I found y'all! I looked on the old thread and panicked, like a small child who loses its mum in a shop.

Yay ginger genes, don't be sad, Obs. It's nice being ginge really.

I saw my baby photos at my dad's at the weekend and lordy, I have created a mini-me. One of the photos is scarily similar. Poor kid...
