hi everyone

hope your all well

bexie sorry to hear your having a rough time hubbys can be so insensative at times.

well im carless at the moment think the gearbox has gone but not sure till we get it looked at, rac had to tow me home at weekend

my mum and dad brought my stokke yesterday as well so going to be playing with that soon

BexieID · 24/01/2010 22:51

Quiet here today?

DP and I were saying earlier that we think Erin might be a bit colicy. She does sometimes cry inconsolably, but not all the time. It's most likely wind though. She farts like a trooper, lol. He said he doesn't really remember Tom at this stage. TBH, I was still living at my parents, so he only got the first 2.5 weeks and 2 long weekends to see Tom before we moved up. And by that time, me and Tom were more in a routine at night (and I could co-sleep as had double bed to myself).

BexieID · 24/01/2010 22:54

For those of us in Scotland or are Scottish! To celebrate Burns Night.

horsemadgal · 24/01/2010 23:51

[bbiscuit] Oo Bexie Burns smileys, who'd have thought it!!

Hope Erin sleeps better for you soon. DS2 has always slept in with us, but we have room for bedside cot (for my bum LOL!)
Have you tried Infacol or whatever else they suggest? Worked for DS1 but not DS2.

horsemadgal · 24/01/2010 23:54

what did I do wrong with the biscuit??

maxybrown · 25/01/2010 03:34

WEll I am guessing you are all in bed! Have been up for over an hour with DS. He has a cough and a temperature of 39.2. So we are sat here watching cars.

Yesterday he seemed ok, just a little under the weather and the start of a little niggly cough. He was in bed with us but he woke me up with his burning body!!

lol HMG with your biscuit, I wanted to do that one, looks so sweet with his hat on.....let me try.....[bbiscuit]

maxybrown · 25/01/2010 03:35

oh pooh doesn't work

maxybrown · 25/01/2010 06:05

I doubt any of you are up yet so I shall just waffle to myself DS FINALLY gone to sleep on settee. Took ages for his temp to come down. I am shattered. Meant to be at dentist this am so will cancel that me thinks! I may fall asleep on her lay back chair

sal1309 · 25/01/2010 07:43

morning all

maxy hope your ds gets better soon and you manage to get some sleep.

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2010 07:50

oh maxy how rotten. glad he's sleeping hope you had a rest. i thought luka was getting cold but wonder if its his back teeth coming through, glowing cheeks and running nose all day yesterday.

waheyyyy he slept all night btw!

maxybrown · 25/01/2010 08:01

He slept for an hour, but Dh was up then and so I ironed his things for work etc. Is there not a kanckered emotive? There should be!!!

he just doesn't know what to do with himself poor thing

Am going to get ready then go to somerfield for calpol.

Dh at a crappy ceremony tonight too with work, so he will be in, shower, very quick dinner then straight back out til about half ten ish.......always when something else is going on eh?!

Has a funny cough too

Divatheshopaholic · 25/01/2010 08:43

Oh maxy, poor you and ds shall we postphone meet up till we are all better and weather warmer
Why [bbiscuit] not working is mystery?

5inthebed · 25/01/2010 09:03

Hope your DS is better after some calpol Maxy. I have two poorly children today. DS3 vomitted most of last night and DS1 ys he has a sore tummy so kept him off school incase he vomits and I have to go get him. Sister has taken DS2 to school for me at least.

Some little twat of a child has smashed my small bedroom window . Had to report it to the police otherwise the Council were going to charge me for the replacement! I don't think so. So I have a policeman coming to interview me this afternoon. I can't beliee this! Hope he is good looking

maxybrown · 25/01/2010 09:32

Oh Diva, I can't believe it I was so looking forward to it. I am fine apart from hardly being able to keep my eyes open!! I thought I was fine til I went outside in the cold, now my eyes feel like I have been crying and crying!! I would be happy for you to come over still, but prob not fair on your DS? I have to say, my DS recovers like someone flicking a switch!! I really would love to get together soon, could sure do with some adult company that's for sure! Have you got my phone number?

He has had calpol, am hoping he will just cuddle up and go to sleep.

Oh 5in, poor you, I really hate sick - although I realise that was probably a silly thing to say, as who actually likes it??

how annoying about your window, I guess that's so you have a crime number isn't it and they don't blame you! If your luck is anything like mine, it will be a policewoman

5inthebed · 25/01/2010 09:44

But I specifically ordered a bloke .

Have plasterer in today as well doing my bedroom, so not very quiet, and DS3 desperate for a nap.

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2010 11:04

oh no not good mornings is it today.

I am still knackered Boys slept through for once but i kept waking.

then tate woke up had wet bed so just been to launderette this morning on bus to do duvet!! oh the joys eh?

luka at nursery at least so just had tate with me need to get waterproof duvet protector now as cost me £8.50 to wash/dry plus bus fair grrr!

5inthebed · 25/01/2010 13:38

Maxy you jinxed me, t'was a policewoman after all

Thats expensive for a duvet to be washed. I'd have just gone out and bought a new one, Ikea sell them for about that

maxybrown · 25/01/2010 13:40

I knew it!!!! lol!!!

FlyMeToDunoon · 25/01/2010 13:57

Yay burns night emoticons. We had a campaign for these last year.Better late than never I guess.
Haven't had my haggis yet but plan to have one this week sometime. MMMMMMMMmmmmmmm
Luckily atm [touch wood] the DDs are all well. Two of them had D&V last week. However DD3's habit of making her way up to our bed every night is beginning to drive DP and I to distraction. Wasn't so bad when she was weeny but she is 3 and a bit now fgs. I haven't slept fully for years now and not even sure I can anymore. We just lack the will power to get up in the night and go through the trauma of putting her back in bed. After all then you are all awake anyway with the extra pain of maybe having her crying and creating. Sigh.
It will have to be done I think.

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2010 14:18

im so peed off could cry!!

i know what you mean 5in but i can't keep buying a new one every time

landlord been to fit new shower today (would have sooner had new carpet but there you go) omg you've never seen such mess. so tired so stressed and pretty fecked off today tbh.

not enough hours in the day atm.

BexieID · 25/01/2010 14:33

Tom finally had a poo on the loo today. Well, by the time i'd realised, he obviously was in the process of wiping it from the seat. He'd got it on one of his stools as well (sorry) Picked him up a Thomas DVD in Morrisons as had to get some coke and coffee for my brother who has decided to descend on us today!

hmg, I picked up some gripe water and infacol, but will take gripe water back to Asda as don't need both and it cost more than what it does in Morrisons

nicolamumof3 · 25/01/2010 16:19

used the quest this afternoon...love it. so much lighter more nippy easier round shops. i had been getting pain in my wrist with xlr. much happier with quest lack of suspension won't really bother me at luka's age.

StrictlyKatty · 25/01/2010 17:39

Carrie I liked Lucas but then I was informed by my sister that it is a chav name from Hollyoaks

Samuel or Daniel are lovely but I think it depends sooooo much on the surname TBH.

Nicola did I see a hint about a DC4????? I think I may be the only person in this village not having a baby!

StrictlyKatty · 25/01/2010 17:44

I mean village as it where I live BTW, I think they are spiking the water in Wiltshire

sal1309 · 25/01/2010 19:48
