Oh 49 posts to go. Someone needs to think of a clever title for our new thread.

SinisterJenn · 09/10/2009 13:11

Rubbish name change here. Any suggestions?

ScarySpangleMaker · 09/10/2009 13:38

What about a Halloween theme:

Pumpkin anyone? the one where we start weaning

(or should it be the babies that start weaning as I think most of us can already eat solid food if only in the form of cake)

Afternoon all!

I'm sooooooooooo cold! We've been to the airfield to watch the planes and helicopters and DS1 insisted on sitting outside. Brrrrrrrr. He insisted on a cake too, so I had to join him. We're both cuddled up on the sofa now.

DS2 slept in his own room last night between 8pm and 1am. He woke up for a sleepy feed and I couldn't put him back (too cold!) so we slept in the bed. I think this co-sleeping lark is more about me than him.

Bbbbrrrrrrr!

Bloody AWFUL night. Dp was out at a function in London, came in at 1230am pissed as anything and doing loud 'SHHH's. M woke up at 4, went in to her, put dummy in, fell back to sleep, woke up again at 5.30 wanting food, so did, but blimey, it was chilly. Closed her door as had friend in the spare room and I could STILL hear dp bloody snoring. Also found a packet of fags on the kitchen counter this morning....

ME: What are they?
Dp: What?
Me: That white box saying Marlboro Lights
Dp: Ooh I think they fell in my pocket, they're someone else's.
(he thinks I'm born yesterday)
Me: Oh ok then, best throw them away - will tear them in half though first, doesn't matter does it?
Dp: pooo. You're such a nagger.

Harumph. Am bloody knackered. Told him he is doing M's feeds tonight, and he said 'erm, no, I'm out all day tomorrow' (stag do). I said 'tough, I've got a friend over to look after M whilst I study'... blah blah blah. FFS. They can be so bloody selfish at times.

.... then he went to the shop and came back with a mahoosive bunch of flowers telling me how much he loved me. Hmmmmmf.

sausagemonstermash · 09/10/2009 14:17

Sorry, he actually came in at 1.30am. Even worse!

LoobyWooooooooooh37 · 09/10/2009 15:15

Brrrrrrrrr! it's cold out

Sat on sofa BF in front of a roaring fire altho I've got to nip out and get more logs soon

LoobyWooooooh · 09/10/2009 15:18

M is still very snotty poor thing

runningscared · 09/10/2009 15:19

Hi All, hope you like the namechange, was going to be running zombie but saw zombies had been bagged already!

Off to catch up now, will have a think of a thread title but given the lack of namechange imagination, doubt I'll come up with anything sensible. Gotta be in honour of sausage's nuptials tho!

llaregguBOO · 09/10/2009 15:21

I've got the lurgy...feel sick...tantrumy toddler and hungry baby. Aaaaaaaaaaargh.

ScarySpangleMaker · 09/10/2009 15:36

oh no llare

OK what about another starter for 10,

Pumpkin (or champagne) anyone? We're doing the Monster Mash!

Toffeeapplemmum · 09/10/2009 16:17

scaryspangle love the thread suggestion

Hope you are feeling better Llare. At least DH will be around for childcare / looking after you over the weekend

Looby am of your fire. We had a lovely wood burning stove in our old cottage and loved it. I now live in a modern box house, with the fire place used as a cabinet for DVD player / CD player etc . Am hankering for a proper fire again.

Worrying news here. G is now crawling. Not super fast or anything, but he sees something he likes, so he does a combination of rolling, tummy shuffling and crawling to get where he wants to go. And stuff that isn't toys is the most attractive to him, like paper, bins, shoes, the potty (niiiice). I also think his teeth are giving him some gip, because he is being grumpy.

Monstermomi · 09/10/2009 16:21

yes please, scaryspangle, I'd like champagne!

oh. it's a new thread title not an offer. boo.
great thread title though .

llare, hope you feel better very, very soon. not fun being poorly with active children.

sausage, your DH.... but love the flowers though. tell him you'd forgive him even more if he brought you champagne .

looby, hope M feels better soon, poor snuffly baby .

Jenn, keep the name, I like it.

just got back from friend's for lunch. She made a gorgeous cottage pie which I devoured but dd1&2 only ate a couple of spoonfuls. i was a bit but I couldn't make them eat it. They do like cottage pie but some days they choose not to .

been away all morning so off to do some housework. hurrah.

Monstermomi · 09/10/2009 16:22

toffeeapplemumm, x posted. G crawling ... hurrah, clever G!!! that's very exciting you must be v proud.

ScarySpangleMaker · 09/10/2009 16:28

Momino I have champagne here and no-one to drink it with as DH away (and in any case doesn't care much for champagne). So you are welcome to a glass or three

Toffee..mum wow I'm so impressed! But I shan't tell H as he will be jealous. He desperately wants to crawl but has only got as far as rolling and getting one knee under his bum, then starts flapping and making straining noises in frustration.

AIBU to get into pyjamas at this hour? H has just done a massive poo which somehow missed the inside of his nappy but coated the outside, his trousers and my skirt

ScarySpangleMaker · 09/10/2009 16:34

new thread here when you're ready

FrightNightFebes · 09/10/2009 16:40
