    Happy Birthday 15 :-)

    I'm waiting patiently for my husband to bring my child back from the In Laws, I suspect she'll be yelling with hunger as well when he arrives as they've bene gone for two hours (and she should have had a nap by now too, not a chance!) I have cleaned and shampooed the carpet and showered and tidied and put some washing on (and harvested superberries...). I ought to wash up and change the bedding but I'm enjoying the peace (while fretting about Celia!)

    I've just realised this is the longest me and Celia been away from each other since she was born! :eek:
    Comping, freebieing and trying to pay the mortgage off early!

    Would you do it again in a hurry? ;)

    I'm having my first baby-free afternoon on Tuesday. Got a dentist appointment mid-afternoon then I've got stuff to do in town either side of it. Mum's looking after Rhys.. Think she's more worried about it than me! ;):o

    I think that entirely depends on what state she's in when she gets home! *sits drumming her fingers on the table* (I have to point out Himself is with Herself at the Out Laws, I'm not daft enough to give them sole charge of her *laughs hysterically*)

    Enjoy your baby free afternoon on Tuesday Elle :-)

    She's back! She was fast asleep in the sling so I bunged her in the vicinity of milk and she's refilling her tummy! It was so nice to have her back I nearly cried :o Think I might send them out more often!

    Tax credits are awful. I really hate dealing with them. They made me pay back a whole YEARS claim, as they said I was "Fradulent" I apparently didn't tell them that I was living with OH, when I bleemin' did! How else would of they got my new address to send forms too? And also....why would I phone them back up and say hey he's got a job now so you'll need to amend things - good one!!

    Had to pay almost 3k back...."sob"

    ....ohmygod I have periods again! I'm so glad that implant is coming out, I don't think I've went 2weeks without a bleed since last August. But I have to take the contraceptive pill with it too (probably for the estrogen?) and that is STILL NOT STOPPING IT. I just had a full on period last week and it was a really sore one.

    HATE THIS.

    Best thing about being pregnant is the lack of periods

    You seriously haven't spent more then a couple of hours away from her yet? :o You deserve a break you know :D Always does me good to have some time away from Elliot, love giving him a huge hug when i get back!

    Elliot had his 1st pair of shoes (properly fitted ones) last weekend and he got to try them outside yesterday when we took him to a little farm (see my new avy). He loved it, especially the little piglets and even touched one on the nose (before i had chance to stop him!).

    We took him to have his second photoshoot this morning (for the bounty free photo) and ended up spending £100 as he decided he'd pose and look ever so cute, so we couldn't say no to several extra photos and some for the grandparents! He cried for the last ones, we just about got the free one with no tears lol.

    right better go, elliot's got my handbag and it's open.......

    I've spent one evening away from LO, about 3 hours. Didn't really want to do any more, I missed him and I really needed to get home and pump! I pumped every hour just to get that break.
