Congratulations GM

geordieminx · 05/10/2009 10:18

Hello.

Yes, we are off to New York on Friday, without C

Yep, professional photographer, but she's a mumsnetter, and therefore a genious, and has uploaded all of the pictures for us already

ScarletBandit · 05/10/2009 13:12

GM, that picture is fabulous, you look gorgeous! So pleased that everything was perfect Enjoy New York

Not much happening here (as always really), am doing the last of my washing so that I can start packing for my hols next weekend. All of a sudden it seems to have come round and I have less than a week to get everyone sorted!
I have a cold which is pants, but I am just vegging at home with F for today which suits me!

Bramshott · 05/10/2009 16:12

Great pic GM - was thinking of you on Sat.

DH away tonight, so back later I think once I have done the swimming - feeding - bathing - bludgeoning into bed run!

Bramshott · 05/10/2009 22:21

Sigh, here I am, all ready for chat, and you are all off having a life !

elkiedee · 05/10/2009 23:18

No life here Bramshott - I went to sleep when putting C to bed for a while. We'll have to find some "unreasonable" threads to join in, or I might start my own.

StealthPolarBear · 06/10/2009 09:29

my life so far this morning
changed A nappy
changed huge stinky T nappy
changed stinky A nappy
had a shower while A screamed
changed A nappy
now trying to hoover up last night's rice while A screams & T eats toast

StealthPolarBear · 06/10/2009 09:31

oh and of course fed 15ish times and answered 60 "why??" quetions

ScarletBandit · 06/10/2009 12:15

No life here Bramshott I can assure you!! Had gone to bed early as felt rough with a cold.

SPB, sounds like a busy morning! Hope you are ok, early days with the second baby is tough going, especially with T to keep happy too

Ok, off now, trying to sort out a couple of cards on Moonpig for dh as his birthday is when we are on hols.

CaptainDippy · 06/10/2009 14:09

LOL SPB - I can totally identify with everything you have written. It does get easier (mine are 5,4 and 2 now) You are a great mummy and doing an excellent job.

GM - you look stunning, so pleased you had such a super day - Enjoy your honeymoon. How long are you going for? Who has got C? Congratulations again

I really hope Dizzy wasn't a troll. If she was, that is an absolutely unacceptable thing to have done.

Sexonlegs · 06/10/2009 22:04

Hello

So quiet on here these days

Our home laptop has died so on dh's.

How are we all?

SPB, your post made me smile. Onwards and upwards

SB, hope you are feeling better now.

Dippy, how are you and your lovely girls?

All ok here. Managed to lose a bloody contact lens down the sink this morning. Not a good start to the day. Luckily the opticians have a cancellation for Saturday morning, but it will still be at least a week before I get new ones! Never mind.

Apart from that the usual. K seems to have a few spots on her back, neck and armpits. She has had them for a few days; some have faded and others have appeared. I wondered if it was chicken pox, but doesn't look the same as when B had it. I am going to book a docs appointment. I feel a bit bad having left it, but she is not poorly with it.

Anyway, heading to bed now as knackered. K got up at 1.30 and 4.30 and had to be escorted back to her bed. We have explained to her that she is not to get up when it is still dark!! Her face was a picture; she looked really earnest when we were explaining this to her!!

Right, waffled on enough now.

Night lovely ladies. xx

ScarletBandit · 07/10/2009 09:29

Morning ladies, hope everyone is ok today.

CD, do you really think Dizzy was a troll? I have been following her thread and was totally taken in and upset by her plight. If she is a troll then that is a terrible thing to have done.

SOL, bloody plugholes! Ds keeps closing the plug when he cleans his teeth and we end up with a load of frothy spit and water in there. I asked him why he kept doing it and he told me that it was just in case his loose tooth fell out when he was brushing it! The wisdom of a six year old He really can be quite sensible sometimes!

I should be in work today, but haven't gone in as I still feel rough. My head has been pounding, and I woke with a horrible stiff neck this morning. At least it should be completely gone before my hols I guess.

StealthPolarBear · 07/10/2009 10:24

hi everyone
Sol hope you sort out K's rash, glad it's not bothering her. Lol at her listening intently to yuor explanation, we might have to try that!
Thanks for the reassurance this gets easier! he'sso lovely but it's so hard. Really dont like the baby stage & i know why now - permanent guilt! unless i'm feeding her or shes just gone to sleep I feel as though I'm neglecting her. Do tummy time, show her stuff, chatto her but that doesn't take much time so for the rest I'm ignoring her Plus tried a dummy last night - more guilt especially as she doesn't cry that much, but she does scream at her middle of the night nappy changes, and wake T up. anyway she hated it
I don't know if DMwas a troll. The evidence seemed to be advising on double buggies before she knew she ndeeded one, and that she posts in the style of CvQ, which i can see now but never would have realised if it wasn't pointed oiut. Sad and awful either way, i hope she was as then it means all thatstuff prob didn't happen, and a poster in need of help hasn't been driven off MN

CaptainDippy · 07/10/2009 11:46

Some people are very sad. Hmmmm.

I am feeling rather "odd" at the mo, not coldy or ill; but a bit light-headed, it is not nice at all and hope it will pass soon DD2 was up in the night a lot and had a temp etc; but was fine when she woke up this am, ate 2 bowls of breakfast and went to school fine As I am picking her up at 12; I thought she would be ok for a morning. Off to soft play with her and P this pm as DD1 is off to a friends for tea

How is K in herself today SOL? Hope she is ok

right, best go get DD2 .....

"Some people are very sad. Hmmmm"
charming! I thought my nappy exploits were quite interesting
Sorry you're feeling odd Dippy, could you be anaemic? Or just exhausted? You always seem to have loads on. Hope your DD2 stays well.

geordieminx · 07/10/2009 13:27

Couple moree pics on..

SPB - Dont feel bad about A- its not like she'll remember

No idea what to think about DM.. I wasnt on MN over weekend (obviously) so missed the whole witch-hunt

CD - Mum is coming up to look after C here, he's much better in his own home, so thats fine - we fly fri am, get back Tuesday - bit manic but will hopefully be worth it.

ScarletBandit · 07/10/2009 13:41

Fab pics GM, C looks absolutely gorgeous!

SPB, I don't know who CvQ is either so I wouldn't know if the posts were alike in any way!
Don't get yourself stressed about struggling for time with A. Unfortunately it goes with the territory when you have more than one child I think. F seems to be doing ok so far, so I think we are managing with the juggling act! You will be fine

Enjoy your afternoon CD Hope you feel better later.

SoonInTheSunshine · 07/10/2009 13:58

Quick name change for my impending hols!

Bramshott · 07/10/2009 14:24

Lovely photo of DS STBITS! Hope you have a great time!
