    Haven't yet packed my bag (but I've got it out of the loft) or written by birth plan.

    How was the RL tea, Glam?

    I've not packed my bag or made birth plan!

    The tea is alright actually but I'm sure a splash of Vimto would improve it no end!

    I read back what I wrote and it didn't come across as I meant - what I meant was 'Do what Nicki said' i.e. ring the consultant etc etc and Calm Down.

    Good, I'll get some tonight.

    Does anyone else's house look like a bombs hit it with baby stuff? And you would clean up but there's nowhere to put anything!

    yep - cotbed in two boxes in downstairs loo wedged alongside pram - can't be moved until single bed is taken down from nursery but can't do that til BIL tells me when he's coming for 2 weeks. Got bags of baby clothes dotted all over the house! Told OH I plan to get something doen tomorrow.

    Ordered my pram liner from eBay too so pram accessories sorted :j

    I was bad and cleaned the kitchen then finished hoovering. Now I'm sore. I then sat and wrote a big long letter about getting funding for DS2 to go to nursery full time this year. Go me! And I made phone calls and such. I'm all proud of myself, have been putting it off for ages.

    RLT is lovely in my opinion.

    Tesco order time.

    Thank God, I thought it was just me. I plan to do some more washing baby clothes this weekend and putting stuff away in the nursery drawers.

    I'm never usually this disorganised but I find myself worrying over the silliest of things, such as does it matter if the curtains and lamp shade in the nursery don't match the bedding – it's pathetic!

    Mleh, my house is always a mess, you get used to it (or start sniffing the MrSheen, yeeha!).

    My nose has been bleeding all bleeding day on and off!

    Work is calling, gotta dash ladies. Only got 4 more weeks and 1 of those is holiday - shouldn't really complain. I'll try and log on inbetween the mire tomorrow.

    I can't get to the nursery wardrobe because it is wedged in at the bottom of the bed so clothes are currently washed, dried and folded into a vacuum storage bag. I've gone OTT and ended up buying 3 bouncy chairs because everytime I went car boot I say one I liked more and same with pushchairs - I have 3 of them! Going to Freecycle the Freestyler and keep the Aria as a back up because we will be using the car seat with bases.

    Doesn't help that OH has been buyign stuff dirt cheap at car boots to sell on eBay and that is strewn all over the house! Everything that's been sold has been posted but there is still loads more to list!

    I've not even got curtains - too lazy. Got a black out blind - not too worried about nursery decoration as LO will be in our room until he's at leats 6 months. As long as I can get to changing unit and wardrobe I'll be happy! :D

    Nicki – No she didn’t obliged! OH is setting off in a min, he’s leaving it late really for a 2.5 hour drive on a Friday afternoon but I’m not interfering. I was going to go but I don’t fancy sitting in a car for so long and I was in pain last night. The walk hasn’t seemed to help much at the moment but we’ll see. Oh and …. I can still reach my feet!! Ok so I get in all sorts of positions painting my white tips but I can still do it. Enjoy your pedicure!

    Tia - Thank Q for the vibes! Right back at ya too

    Nappy bins – I had one with DS1 and found it useful , Ok Ok so it’s a lazy option but it saved going outside and putting it In the bin. I wouldn’t have one again as I have better things to spend my money on but each to their own.

    Carla – Hope your sis passes her test! Vibes to her and her examiner !!

    Glam – Yeah on your pram apron! Our cot mattress is the only thing left we have to buy. We have a £10 voucher for M&P so we are buying ours from there, the same as our cotbed. The vimto is really worth it in the RLT but I’m not a herbal tea drinker anyway so maybe it’s me

    Bush trimming….I hate saying that but anyway ..my OH trimmed mine the other day with a razor.. (god the trust i have in him!!!)... and I now officially have wings!! I said Id never seen one like that before, he said that’s what everyones looks like…have I being doing it wrong all these years ??? :confused: and WHOSE has he been looking at recently!!!! :A I feel like an angel!
