    Violet is a really nice name and so unusual these days. Good choice.

    I'm just soooo glad I didn't convince myself I was being dramatic and decide to stay at home for another half hour!!

    Baby is either Violet or Sam - we can't decide which she looks like.

    WOW what a fab birth :T Bless your LO "who's that?" :rotfl:
    I like both names but for obvious reasons I say Sam :D

    I'll be checking R.mac's FB every hour on the hour from now on I think :cool:

    Congratulations Ladies
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    3onitsway - well 3 has well and truly arrived, well done you!

    What a fantastic story and how wonderful that you are back home already to enjoy it all! I love your DD's comment, I bet her face was a picture!

    I vote for Violet (as long as your surname is not Beauregarde or Bott)

    How fantastic to go off to have it and be home before the children are awake! I would love that to happen for me... And also the same kind of labour!!

    Of to stalk rmac on facebook now...

    (Another vote for violet for me!)
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    I've been into town this afternoon. Come back with two packs of Pampers newborn nappies (2 for £6) and the free changing bag from Boots (for info, the bags are in turquoise boxes on the nappy shelf for those looking for them!).. and a bag of Millies Cookies :D I was going to share with OH but as I've come home to find him fast asleep on the sofa, I'm having them all to myself :D

    The builder has dropped the quote off whilst I was out. Just over £8k so we should be able to get everything done for £12k after all :D Just got to sort ordering the kitchen and bathroom now. Tomorrow's job!
  • Its very quiet on here today, guess all these new babies is keeping everyone away !!!

    I'm getting a night out tonight :j

    Ok Ok its just to my friends house for a cup of tea and a good old natter, but hey ho, I'll take what sort of social life I can get :rotfl:

    elle-gee are you hoping to have all the work done before bubs arrives? Be nice to know it will all be done and all the extra space can be filled with baby related items !!!
    The two best things I have done with my life

    Yup, should have started by the end of March I think :)

    We're not actually going to make that much space but it's all the niggly jobs around the house that we're getting done all at once, plus the new kitchen and bathroom. Replacing a few windows (inc the big bay at the front of the house as it wasn't done properly by the previous owners and all the seals have gone so it's very cold in there - our bedroom), a few ceilings and all the doors inside and out.

    My dad has been the force behind it - from experience, he's said to get it all done before the baby comes along. Plus, he's offered to pay for it :j (also need a "really really grateful" type smily too!) and I'm going to pay him back gradually.
