Right, not sure I can catch up on all! I was rotten yesterday , felt really ill with sickness and an exploding head but ok today, dh was fab and took control of kids so he is def in the good books. I stayed in bed for most the day!
rachie understand how you feel re leaving J overnight and wanting to asked if they can take him next day, they prob doing it only as a treat for you to have a nice morning and for them to get to take him out but I know it would be nice for them to ask you.
star at your Dh being cross at you for going out! Its been a long time overdue and I think it was nice to see your friend etc. Dh prob feels ab it put out that you did something you dont normally. HOpe all ok now.
i have AK book but only as I need some inspersation at times as to what to make

P had horrible nappies at mo and a really snotty nose..yuk so guessing its teething as still nothing!

pepper hope your holiday turns out ok!!! Fingers crossed for good weather!

Still no clapping here, although she is waving and does high five and sometimes puts her hands on her head when asked and thinks its really funny when she does!

Right off to sort the kids as we all still in pjs. Got appt at specsavers to adjust hearing aids today so hopefully that will help!

26 = a size 8 in Topshop. Got to dash M is trying to destroy the laptop...

Marthasmama · 27/07/2009 12:37

Just checked the Gap website, it is indeed a size 8. Nice one you skinny mini! They do a petite size on the website but it's never in the shops. It's such a pain as their loveliest jeans are always in a 32inch leg.

Jenwa - Glad you're feeling better today. Hope your appointment helps with your hearing/headaches.

Awwwwww I'm watching Coronation Street and Maria's lovely baby is on. Yum yum. I love tiny newborns. Just when I has started to wonder if I could actually bear to go through the recovery of yet another abdominal incision......

star6 · 27/07/2009 19:47

just remember MM they are only tiny newborns for such a very tiny bit of time

Honeymoonmummy · 27/07/2009 19:53

Hi all, no heartburn today! Will be back after Poppy's final feed

Oh and MyJob - size 8???? SIZE 8?????

star6 · 27/07/2009 19:54

I'm a size 8.... and I can guarantee you that after meeting myjob, she's littler than I am... so she's being modest here!!

jenwa · 27/07/2009 20:30

Hi all
Appt ok alhtough now everything seems piercing loud! Need to really see if itsok otherwise will have to go back, its either too quiet or too shrieky

myjob and star size 8!!!!!!!!!!! thats me not eating until we meet up then

pistachio lol re toothpaste! I know its not funny but I just have that image of it stuck inbetween the keys...eek!

Marthasmama · 27/07/2009 20:33

I was thinking similar Jenwa. Maybe I'll just not meet up, much too lardy!

OP posts:
Marthasmama · 27/07/2009 20:34

Ooops, posted too soon. I meant to say glad appointment went well Jenwa.

OP posts:
star6 · 27/07/2009 20:39

oh please. I'm just short is all. Have plenty of fat to spare!

star6 · 27/07/2009 20:40

jenwa is there a noise control on it? I don't know how it works, but can you regulate it so it's not too high or to low? sorry to sound dense here...

Thank you mm just hoping they will pick up quiet people now! How are you? You are not a lardy either!

Marthasmama · 27/07/2009 21:03

We're doing two parties for M Pistachio, a small friends one and a bigger family get together. There are three October birthdays in my family so it will be a joint celebration.

Oh my GOD!!! Is anyone else watching The Street?

OP posts:
jenwa · 27/07/2009 21:08

haha, there is a volume control to turn them down overall but the bloke at specsavers has to adjust frequenices for me by linking them up to the computer, all abit technical.
Agree quiet is better than shrieky

We are also having a party for dd2 although combining it with dd1 and my friends dc as they the same age as mine, her ds is 9 days older than dd1 and her dd2 is 6 days older than mine. We had big b'day party for dd1 on her first so think it fair to do same and they are both in Oct so easy to do it as a joint one! I think we are hiring a hall as cant possibly have everyone here!

jenwa · 27/07/2009 21:09

Just put some pics on FB of the girls and me! DD1 took the ones of me, I have deleted afew as some were shocking close ups!

Marthasmama · 27/07/2009 21:12

Just had a look at your pictures Jenwa. Your girls are soooo cute, P is so pretty! And....if you lose any more weight you'll disappear! You have fantastic pins lady!

OP posts:
jenwa · 27/07/2009 21:21

I never thought to even look if my feet were clean on that pic! Not that my feet are usually really filthy but I have a habit of being bare footed in the house and garden!!!
My pins are white and pasty!
Having a little chuckle as when I read what I put instead of 'white' I put 'shite' haha

Marthasmama · 27/07/2009 21:24

Your feet are clean. I had to go back and check!

OP posts:
jenwa · 27/07/2009 21:29

Thats good then, would have had to delete that if I had scanky feet

Where is everyone tonight???
