MKG - ?????

Lulu - Just Jenny. With jazz hands, natch.

Luluhow lovely!!! Don't listen tothe gossips was nowt to do with me

Tills my lovely so nice to see you, ihave been thinking about your poor dh.

Pebble ihope he settles soon, it is hellish when they feed all the time.Indie isjust settling down now at 6 weeks apart from the appointed growth spurts.

SOH where are you going on holiday? Here? No need for a swimsuit My jelliness is erm wobbly

B can not count, nor does he know his colours. In fact if i get him to say 'Mum' wer are doing well. The children all coach him, mostly in names. He can say most of their names now, nana, yes, night night, monkey and up. Mostly (like Archie, Jam) he screams and shouts. Tis fabulous

I'm so of your little meet up today. I assume cake will be involved?

MKG · 04/03/2009 14:51

Hi all. Still here, still pregnant. Sorry I didn't check in yesterday. Dh had off he spent the whole day cooking and cleaning while I was off my feet reading. I finished the last book in the Twilight series last night, so baby can come whenever she likes now. I had more bloody show yesterday and was sure things were going to happen today, but so far no sign of anything. My crochet hooks are looking better and better at the moment.

I'm not even going to ask about the whole nuns and porn thing LOL.

Indie is gorgeous! and she still have that 'baby' smell. Beau was brilliantly behaved, although was asleep most of the time i was there. I got left in charge of 6&7 while G&T went out to get 5 from playschool. Was a piece of cake as they were both sleeping and i got to sit and read a magazine Hugs is gorgeous and i got a nice little cuddle followed by him draping his legs over me whilst he got comfy watching tv.

MmeJaffaB · 04/03/2009 19:10

Glad you had a nice day AM. Hope you gave the gorgeous tonics a squeeze from me.

SOH, Ohhhhhhhh Noooooooo it won't!

It's Wednesday MKG, baby time. Come on.

Honary member with cake great advice.

Hope you got some rest pebble.

TM, still thinking about you and dh and friend. So

I went for my run yesterday, can nearly do the whole route without walking. Just walked for about 20 seconds twice! I couldn't run 1 minute without dying when I started. It's not far, just under 2km but even so, I'm so happy it's getting easier.

MmeJaffaB · 04/03/2009 19:11

How's it going PJ, did you join? are you back to SW? xx

SKYTVADDICT · 05/03/2009 10:15

I hate book day - its official. Is there a facebook group to join or should I start one?
DD2 has gone but was not happy. She thinks friends will laugh at her because she isn't either Hannah Montana, Sharpay Evans or something else from that sort of film or tv show!

Callum can sing do, ray, me etc whilst being prompted by DD2 and counts to 10 - again whilst being prompted and following what she says - some of it isn't very clear though and as for colours - I don't think we have even started on them! He is coming along with other words though, at least I know what he is saying although nobody else does.

Themasterandmargaritas · 05/03/2009 10:57

Sky, we got away lightly this year, dd has to bring in her favourite book and talk about why it is her favourite. Much more sensible as it is after all BOOK day Actually I think the school sort of accidentally forgot about it til the last minute, as they normally do do the dressing up thing too!

Elizabeth, Margaret, dd, ds1 and I, all understand exactly what J is saying. Dh hasn't got a clue

SKYTVADDICT · 05/03/2009 13:39

Yay, my Secret Santa pressie has arrived.

Very many thanks.

Can't wait to have a bath with my lush bath stuff - may even get one tonight!

MKG · 05/03/2009 14:22

Still here, still pregnant. Today is my last day of work though so I'm kinda happy about that. I'm really using this time to spend lots of time with the boys, especially Cruz being that he's the love bug of the house and will feel this change more than anyone.
He's extended his vocabulary to fish (because he loves goldfish snacks), hat, sock, and show (because he loves the tv). Pretty much those are the most important things in his life right now.

AprilMeadow · 05/03/2009 19:09

MKG I hope you have a good last day at work. Perhaps baby is waiting until you have finished. Cruz sounds adorable!! Do you have a mobile number of any of the girls just incase you have a midnight dash to the hospital or will we have to wait until you are home and settled?

Took J to the cinema for the first time today to see Bolt. He was very good although did ask lots of questions.

Bought a few more maternity clothes today as i am running out of things that fit. Also had to buy some new bras as have already gone up 2 cup sizes (am only 12+4). They look mahoosive, am sure i could fit my head in the cup!

Off to Sunderland on Saturday to see Spurs v Sunderland. Got some tickets for the directors box and hospitality from someone dh knows. Am really excited as havent seen Spurs play for at least 12years! My mum and one of the managers from work are going with me. Have to get the 9.45am flight on Sat morning (should be interesting) and then a late flight home. Dh is staying at home with the kids as he doesnt really follow football.

MKG · 05/03/2009 19:32

I will make you all wait until I get home, which the midwife promised would be a max of one night if all goes well. I'm not looking forward to 2 nights there. We'll see though.

I think tomorrow will be the day though, because I've been feeling weepy today.

AprilMeadow · 05/03/2009 19:47

So there could be a lot of cakes being passed round with vats of tea/gin!

MmeJaffaB · 06/03/2009 10:29

Noooooooooooooooo, I may have to wait a whole week to hear.

Have fun at the footie AM, sounds great.

AprilMeadow · 06/03/2009 10:35

Will you have your phone? I can text you

Have a FAB time skiing. Drink some hot choc for me xx

MrsJoeMcIntyre · 06/03/2009 10:41

Have a great time, Mrs JB.

AM - Love you. Just wanted to say that. You're such a fantastic mate.

Have a wild time MrsJB

AprilMeadow · 06/03/2009 10:51

Got my 12 wk scan in 1 hr woo hoo

MrsJoeMcIntyre · 06/03/2009 10:56

I bet you can't wait!

We are still in the midst of a major Peppa Pig obsession chez McIntyre. I am so sick of Peppa, and George's constant crying, and Mummy Pig being so nice all the time. Grr.

MKG - If I go and see NKOTB this summer, can I stay with you?

MmeJaffaB · 06/03/2009 11:45

Peppa drives me mad too! grrr her spots cleared up VERY fast indeed yesterday, wish when our kids had a rash and were ill, one spoon of yukky medicine is all it took to make them better.

Thanks all, I am really looking forward to our hols. It's dumping a fresh load on the mountains today for us! I will have my phone AM so would love a text, thanks. I love you too btw. I have no hormones of any kind, I just do! Enjoy your scan, ohhhh lovely wriggler!

MrsJ are you OK?

Go MKG!!

MrsJoeMcIntyre · 06/03/2009 12:17

And I wish Doctor Brown Bear came round immediately as well.

MmeJaffaB · 06/03/2009 12:20

Quite! Do Dr's actually do house visits anymore?
