He's evening out a lot more lately. One of the smaller ones of his year group, but not smaller than his year iyswim.

Crouching man def looks better with his wings.

Phoenix · 18/08/2009 10:34

God, how stupid am i, i never even thought about that but luckily i'm no longer breastfeeding.

mustrunmore · 18/08/2009 10:41

Hello Jas Ta! you stil lke the treee better though?!

Back to gp; spots seem to be coming back and I dont wanna take the chance as we're away for 2 days.

CantSleepWontSleep · 18/08/2009 16:52

You joined us before medhismummy, but then you disappeared!

How come you gave up bf Phoenix? I thought it was going well for you.

Yay for selling business. To which MNer?
(tell me the price on msn )

Eek for room sharing EPPM.
I'm in Worcester atm btw. Not sure of plans for each day yet, but could feasibly come to your town on Friday, and maybe do SeaLife again (with dh this time). Do you have plans for then already?

EachPeachPearMum · 18/08/2009 22:34

mrm- what is the other guy doing? is he a bowman????

phoenix- sorry , hadn't realised that.

csws- we are going away friday- camping for the weekend with other mners ... am around tomorrow or thurs though.

Hi mehdismummy....

flame- it worries me that he is going to be small though my brother was tiny as a child, and is pretty small now- so much so that it prevented him being selected by olypmic squad in his sport not saying that would be necessarily the case for ds, but it worries me.

Frizbe · 18/08/2009 22:59

EPPM {{{hugs}}} try not to worry too much, I'm sure ds will grow fine, he's probably just stalling, they all do at some point. Glad he's settled in new room ok, sorry dd isn't taking it as well though......Happy Camping! (we're i.e. me and girls are going overnight on Thurs with friends/kids too!)

CSWS hope you're enjoying Worcs?

MRM dh said, 'is that a squirrell' I said no its a bloke with wings/an angel....are you going to do more stuff around them? looks like you're going to create a bigger picture?

Flame, yay for sale

Hello everyone else, anyone got anything planned for the weekend? (bar EPPM's camping?) we don't have yet, but I'm thinking Warwick Castle may be on the list, as have shockingly realised only two weeks left of school hols and of course we're down Christchurch for the last week! I went to get my hair cut today and can't get in till school is back, how shocking is that

CantSleepWontSleep · 19/08/2009 06:27

we're going to warwick castle on sunday friz!

Sorry can't do today or tomorrow eppm.
Enjoy camping .

NorksNappiesAndNowtElse · 19/08/2009 07:57

Ah yes EPPM, but say your brother had wanted a career as a jockey or something, it would have been a bonus.

(Will try and reply to the rest later)

mustrunmore · 19/08/2009 08:02

Off for our 2 days at Chessington today But its just me ands the boys, as my friend is no longer coming (ds2 still has 2 spots, and we took him back to gp, who now says might not be impetigo, nd prob not vontagious as we didnt get any from him, but he's got diff medicine to try and cleat up fibal spots). Friend is wasting 2 days free at chessington and her £35.99 on the hotel cos she thinks ds2 will infect her ds and dd.

Er, no its not a bloody squirrel! They do look clearer in real life tho to be fair! The other man is holding the vine thats attached to the lady's vine . I'm not intending more as such Friz, but nwver say never

Jas · 19/08/2009 09:52

lol @ squirrel

It is clearer in rl (but you're right, I do still prefer the tree)

Nothing this weekend, I hope.

We did the NHM yesterday, a day trip on the train yesterday (back 7.30...I bought macD fr the dds and made them walk home from the train station), gunpowder today, Wildlife park tomorrow, and my parents on Friday.
I'm plannning on sleeping on Sat!

Have fun on days out everyone (your friend is a nutter mrm. No way would I have cancelled!)

EachPeachPearMum · 19/08/2009 20:27

rofl... I thought racoon at first!

flame- yes- jockey... he would have been perfect height and weight!

Friz- I need a haircut too... is getting ridiculously long... but too scared as always

Phoenix · 19/08/2009 22:16

EPPM - No need to apologise, i honestly never thought about tattoos and bf'ing.

No longer bf'ing because, honestly, i dreaded every feed, i really didn't enjoy it. I couldn't have ever done it in public . I bf for 3wks til i got him back over his birth weight and then just fed him at night but have stopped completely now. So maybe selfish reasons but i didn't even intend to do it that long.

Lol at squirrel and racoon

NorksNappiesAndNowtElse · 20/08/2009 14:56

ffs

One of my reasons for stopping b/f DD was to go into pretty bras... I think that wins for selfish reasons

I want to see the squirrel and raccoon in rl

Took DD candle lighting last night - annual thing, been going in Bournemouth gardens for as long as I know. Lots of coloured glass jars with tea lights in them all hung up in designs, you go round with tapers and light them. I went every year as a child with no problems at all. First time I take my children, and one of the jars fell and smashed - cut DD's foot . Only a couple of little scratched but shook her (and me!) up. Will go back again though I'm not letting one freak accident put us off. The St John's Ambulance woman looked a bit at me when I was saying to DD "See, I told you not to be scared of the fire.... it was the glass that hurt you!"

mustrunmore · 20/08/2009 19:56

I'm back

Lol at your thread Falme!

Phoenix · 22/08/2009 19:03

Welcome back mrm. Was ds2 ok?

Hope you're enjoying camping EPPM

Lovely weather here today. We spent the afternoon in the park with the ds'.

Frizbe · 22/08/2009 20:16

Was it good MRM, hows ds, spots all clear now? Flame is right, we need to see Tats in real life!

CSWS I don't think we'll make it this weekend, but we might try and squeeze it in next week on the way down to Christchurch hope you enjoyed it

Flame, argh! what to do with the boy! do they have climbing in the olympics? you may have a champion on your hands

EPPM, take it you don't like hairdressers then?

Have been camping for a night on Thur night here with some other mums, was lovely, nice meal at pub, then star watching with wine, whilst we attempted to get kids to sleep Kitten appears to have missed me, as he's not left me alone since!
In other news dd1 has more friggin nits...think its someone at holiday club, as all should be dead after last sundays treatment, but found two more on Wed night and a further one friday am have rung club and told them about re infection n could they please put a note up

Frizbe · 22/08/2009 20:17

XPosts Phoenix was gorgeous here today too, have spent day at home, for 1st time in ages! caught the dd's watering dd2's bedroom carpet though....a suspicious moment when all went quiet.... Glad you had lovely afternoon

Frizbe · 23/08/2009 12:02

Having a result here at the moment, the kids seem to have forgotten I exist, have gone 15 mins without being asked to do something

Have taken them all swimming this am, and thus we have to take ss back home this avo, so am going via Meadowhall, might attempt the Shakeaway que again, if its not too big? might also try and get another pair of jeans and get dd1 school shoes too Have weighed self and am disgusted I appear to have put on half stone over hols, by mainly just not exercising 3 x a week back to the grind in two weeks, once the kids are back eh, or I'll not be fitting in my new size jeans much longer

ThisIsWhyYouWereToldNotTo · 23/08/2009 12:04

Mine are chasing DH and the strimmer round the garden.

meri doesn't sound cut out for camping Frizbe

Frizbe · 23/08/2009 18:17

But she was the one who used to camp in the woods with her dad n bears n guns n everything they used to fish for their tea etc! she should be!

ThisIsWhyYouWereToldNotTo · 23/08/2009 18:43

She has growed up and gotten home-itised It was the various tweets about being cold and not enough coffee

EachPeachPearMum · 23/08/2009 19:46

we're back!

We were at CC Frizbe have left it clean and tidy, and ship-shape! The stars were amazing- could clearly see the milky way etc

Temp ranged from 29 down to 13 (inside the tent) - was pretty nice most of the time, with only the briefest of rain one night.

Am v tired....

Frizbe · 23/08/2009 20:50

I know what you mean Flame! she likes it really, just pretends she doesn't!

EPPM for you having a great time, it got down to about 13 at night for us too, the stars were fabulous though, I know I'm only in a small town, but I sooooo miss being able to see them at night clearly (we can sometimes see them ok in the front garden, but nothing beats pitch black fields!)

Frizbe · 23/08/2009 21:00

Oh brought dd1 school shoes that fit today, hurrah! she's a 12.5 G (huge!) was having problems as no one seemed to have half sizes in stock, but after a huge que to get seen at Meadowhall finally got some, phew (whose betting she grows out of them in the next 2 weeks then?)
