    What nicknames did everyone get called when they were little? My mum always called me "flower" or "flowerpot".. still does, actually! :o If I was naughty, I was a "little toad" :(

    And a massive hello & welcome to all the new mums-to-be.

    I still get called Jillybean which was my nickname - hence the fact that this baby is sometimes called 'beanie baby' :D

    Oh yes, and hello to everyone :) Labour vibes to Krystal and MrsTine!

    My mum used to like to "take us out for a drive".. if we carried on playing up once in the car (it was supposed to calm us down and make us sleep!), she'd threaten to leave us in a lay-by :o

    Apparently one time, years later, we all got out the car to go walking in the woods, leaving the car parked in a lay-by, I demanded my dad gave us the car keys so they couldn't go off without me! :eek: I was 7 or 8 at the time! :(

    Hubby's hogging the lappy again! He's got comping fever... Just hope he wins some stuff... Have resorted to the iPod but difficult to leave messages with my big fat fingers...

    Also sitting on the gym ball in an attempt to get something moving but all it's done is make my back ache...
    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 think I've got half an hour of peace before OH comes home and starts looking longingly at the laptop! :rolleyes:

    Will be ready for a break by then.. got yet another headache! :( I think it's definitely work stress.. so much to do, so little time. Going to demand I get to work with my door shut for the rest of the week.. *stamps foot*

    Got the lappy for a min, hubby's gone off to do his little list of chores... With a big sigh lol...

    Gym ball was not a good idea at all, was only sat on it 5 mins but my back is agony now, was all siezed up when I stood up, could barely walk to the sofa... Might not be the best posture but reclining is definitely the position of choice for me!
