    HAHA!!!!

    Sami, It is still fairly fresh, but I figure...pregnant for 9mths, It will be a distant memory by then:) Was meant to ask, have people warmed to the name Edgar now, I remember you saying, when you were pregnant, that people weren't keen on it?

    i cant wait to move into my house, i have the most horrible interfering old woman neighbour in the world! a couple of weeks ago she knocked on the door after seth had been having one of his screaming fits to ask if everything was ok and i gave her the benefit of the doubt and was quite polite, but today she has just done exactly the same thing again! she lives underneath me and has a garden. she knocked and said "i do hope everything is ok, i cant help noticing that the little one has been crying for a long time, i've been in the garden and i think i can hear you doing the washing up while he's crying, are you coping ok? with your windows open i can hear everything"
    :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
    i told her in no uncertain terms that yes, i was doing the washing up, i was washing up his bottles to sterilise and he doesnt like to be left alone for even a few minutes, not that it is any of her business!!
    i now feel like i should be hiding away with my bl00dy windows shut so she cant hear every bl00dy thing i do! it sounds like she spends her life listening under my windows! i am absolutely fuming! and now probably expecting a visit from bl00dy social services cos of an old intefering busybody!!

  • My DH says NO! to pink for Jamie :p. And we've bought him a blue bumbo now so I'm selling Poppy's one :D.


    But I still can't let go of my maternity clothes...:o

    And SIL told DH that she is not having another baby until we can give her our P&T! :eek:. Not sure I want to be under pressure not to have another child even though we have decided to stick at two :rotfl:.

    Tesco have grey, navy, royal blue, purple, burgundy, black, black shiny and black lace - very Madonna in the 80's :p
    They also had some footless tights in bright purple, pink and blue :D
    Hope you fancy one of those!


    Em - you should have said "oh yeah, he doesn't like it when I lock him in the cupboard" :p
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    I'm a zombie... Roo was ages before she settled last night, then awake again at 2 - cue just short of 2 hours of feeding, changing and trying to settle her - and JUST as she nodded off daddy got up to blow his nose loudly (he's got a coold again *sigh*) and startling her - with the result that I wailed "I've only just got her off to sleep!" and started crying :cry: Poor DH was walking round with a head full of cold, I was wailing because I was so tired and Roo was happily gurgeling in her basket refusing to go to sleep... think at about 4 she nodded off again till about 6... and that's been it... I'm knackered!!! And I don't wanna play no more! :(
