Thank you for reading, not too sure how helpful it will be!
Anyway I am now officially 30! OH gave me a wonderful jewellery box, with all different types of wood inlaid, making up the scenery from the island in scotland where we were married! Very sweet!:heartpuls
He also painted my toenails, which I haven't been able to reach for a while!
Edit: Just had an enormous bunch of flowers delivered from him too! :heartpuls:heartpuls

Happy Birthday Earthgirl.
Sounds like your DH has been lovely. Mine wouldn't know where to start in terms of toe nail painting. I barely know how myself though.
Enjoy it.

Thanks everyone!!
Had a great birthday and lovely presents and cards from everyone, even some pupils that had left came back in with all sorts of presents, and I feel very spoilt!
Got in a bit of a strop though as people kept popping in last night to give me things (I am very ungrateful aren't I ? sorry don't mean to be!!!) and I kept hinting that we were supposed to go out for a meal, but we didn't manage to get everybody out until after 8pm, so didn't eat until about 9pm - don't get between a pregnant lady and her food!!
Anyway, I had a really unsettled night, and couldn't feel the baby kicking, and almost went to hospital I was so worried. Anyway oh calmed me down, he can still feel him moving just not as dramatically. I think everythings ok, as he has been moving well today - and I've been concentrating on him more!
I have officially finished work for at least 9 months! and I feel strangely calm and unflustered. Very odd. Teachers gave me a round of applause for making it to the end of term, apparently no one thought I would!!
Right off to update my to do list and have a rest - later I am making birthday cake for my bbq/ indoor party
