We Wise ladies Avidly are buying gifts that traverse afar...l

[bunnymother]

Oh my God, I choked (try and hum along to We Three Kings...)!! But here is the new thread.

Hi Bunny - so glad you're doing well with the little ones - sounds like they're easing you in gently. It must be amazing watching them together. Glad that DD1 is continuing to live the high life too .

ooooh bunny - so marvelous to hear from you and how wonderful that the babes are all doing so well. Keep the pics coming they are adorable - and you look sensational!

right wise ladies, I am not well. Achey and hacking cough. And have a year's worth of sleep to catch up on, mountains of writing to do, ds2's party on the weekend, rellys arriving from o/s tomorrow and a couple of socially things on this week. On this note, I implore you to tell me to go away (nicely please, I am sensitive, esp atm) if you see me meandering aimlessly around the world of W&A. I will only check in to report on the arrival of my Halston Heritage dress.

But will be thinking of you all and hope you are all staying warm, wise and wonderful.

PS only hells, DT, EIE and tracey have responded to meet up plans so far. I assume Choo is coming? Choo and Hells would you help me out with a location, I am struggling. Everyone is coming into diverse stations so central seems best, despite the retail madness. It'll be everywhere anywhere. EIE had a good west idea but I can't seem to find it - EIE?? can you FB us?

LTEC - Sorry you are unwell. I am also suffering with cough/cold as is DD1 who is waking nightly with coughing that goes on for hours. Poor little thing.
Can you tentatively count me in for meet-up please or remind me of email addy to send details to. would really like to come but depends on how smooth running the homeship is on the day I would be coming into Waterloo.

Bunny - you look wonderful on FB (as do your little bunnies). Sounds like it is all going really well

cake and other meet-up ladies... Although I had mentioned that I might be able to come to London in December, I'm afraid I can't do it. Sunday is tricky for me as I would have to catch last flight back and the logistics of coming to London and flying back on the same day are stressing me already. Hope I can be there next time.

Ooh bunny thanks for sharing. What a beautiful family. Enjoy.

We have snow! Not loads but enough to get hit by a snowball doing the schoolrun....!

Bunny so lovely to hear from you and great that everything is going so well esp the feeding and sleeping. My Mum always said my twin sister and I were so content as we always had each other for company - in fact we were v late in learning to talk cos we just used to babble to each other!

Out for a quick shopping trip with DS2 and then back for a lazy day at home. Will get the sledge out but total lack of hills - obviously!

One more day to go before Shred day Vin and Fritzi!

Congratulations bunny. 3 babies, how lovely!

reallygrumpy I bought my timberlands 3 years ago in Italy, but I believe these are the same. Mine are completely waterproof, lined, and have excellent grip.

Get well soon cake

No new snow in Paris, but it is foggy and cold and generally very miserable. I took DD to school this morning (in her new fur lined boots ) on foot and felt very cold and horrible by the time I got back. But I am still a bit post-viral, despite having spent all day on the sofa yesterday watching back to back episodes of Mad Men .

I don't feel like doing anything at all, but I have ten people to dinner on Thursday, lunch at the newly-reopened Royal Monceau on Friday and a party in Brussels on Saturday night. So I need to think about menus, hairdressers, clothes... which I would love to do in the normal course of events but have no energy for right now. Grrrr!

Your babies are beautiful, bunnymother!

Bunny - so good to hear from you and so pleased you are managing some rest with your BEAUTIFUL babies. (Be still my beating ovaries.....)

Bonsoir - Sounds like a packed schedule. I have a similar month coming up, and it started last weekend. I have to admit DH and I both wanted to stay at home and watch tStrictly Come Dancing (the shame!) because he is only home around 4 nights a month at the moment....but once we were out we enjoyed it. (possibly me more than him, as he drove and I 'entertained' him with my witty banter on the way home.)

LTEC - Hope you get well soon. Nothing worse than feeling rubbish when lots going on. Try and rest (and don't be cross....but listen to your body, as it may be trying to tell you that you are perfect already! Will shut up now.)

Really wish I could make the meet-up, but that weekend is crazy busy and it just isn't a possibility. I bet you all have a lovely time though - and i am definitely up for the next one!

Well, a LOT of snow fell here last night. In fact it was one of the very few times that Lincolnshire made it on to the national news bulletins. DDs school still open which is a minor miracle. I had taken today off work due to my mothers help being off, so luckily I don't need to be at work. Will spend the day filling advent calender boxes, finsihing present wrapping and going on the cross trainer I think.

....And occasionally eyeing up the coated skinnies on the TS website. They still have my size (28/34) in. Am tempted!

Bunny you look amazing! And your babies and your dd1 are soooo beautiful . The ones where they are facing eachother just ach get me [emotional]

Snow here! Still get excited by snow!

Am wearing light grey skinny jeans, deep mushroom GG boots, stripe light grey and navy APC jumper, light cashmere beret and cream thick V Bruno coat -from Koh Samui in Covent Garden, I think it has shut down!

Am just posting that, as love dressing in loads of shades of same light colours! Especially in snow .

Bonsoir rest today, thhen when ok tomorrow you can plan with aplomb

God Marsha you sound very stylish compared to me .

Black yoga trousers over running tights here, with long sleeved blue thermal running top and a fleece. With sheepskin slippers.

No, it's not pretty.

NY I can assure you I am less pretty

At home with 2 poorly children and haven't even got dressed yet [slovenly]

Am still hoping to get to Harvey Nichols tonight even though we're forecast more snow - DH thinks I'm mad but he underestimates the lure of a good discount.

Bonsoir - definitely take it easy. I've got latest episode of MM ready and waiting for naptime.

LTEC - you take it easy too.

I love Mad Men. I don't adore celebs that much (you know brad pitt or someone vacuous) but I do love Don Draper. The others are near perfect too.

I'm sure you are both very pretty .

yes take it easy all ill people, ds2 nearly better. sleep a bit better (woohoo)

Ah yes, Don Draper. Hmmmmmm.

I mean, he's a git really - but I totally would (if single obviously, DH, if you are lurking....)

I'm not very interested in celebs either but Don Draper is very, very gorgeous .

Having said that about celebs, the other day DD and I were walking home and heard her name being shouted from a car window. It was a little boy in her class whose father is mega-ultra-über famous - and said little boy and father slowed right down and waved enthusiastically at us. Felt quite for a celeb to have slowed the traffic to say hello to DD and me .

Oh how exciting! French or English/ American famous?

Yes Don is gorgeous.

I can so guess who that was Bonsoir.

And oh yes indeedy to Mr Draper.

I think I have guessed too!

whhhattt how did you do that?

ok think I got it. wow! Did he look good?

There are two French celeb DCs in DD's class - one who was also in her class last year (father is D G) and a new one (father is Y N). This was the second one (more my generation...).

Oh I was wrong I was thinking JD (but no idea what age kind his children are).

...age of his children, naturally!
