    Might be worse because all my family lives in Denmark - so not like they can just "pop" round to see us :) Mum is the only one who's seen Alexandra yet - but hopefully we'll make it home in sept/oct to see everyone!

    Oh, that is quite far away I suppose :rotfl: My parents are no longer around and I don't get on with my siblings, but can't complain as have good friends to pop around :D Hopefully you will get back soon and show off your little one :)

    mine are 8,7,4(on tues!), 19months and 6 months

    Oooh. You have a Birthday coming soon too. I have Birthdays on Sunday and Thursday (twins) Same day as GCSE results for 16yo :rolleyes: Are they all girls/boys or a mix?
    speaking of baking anyone got an idea of something i can make then just sit in the oven ...

    Why would you want to just sit in the oven? ;):D

    Do you have a slow cooker? Or just the oven? Maybe MrsTine can be better use than me. My girls are on demand and the longest they will wait is for a Roast Dinner :D

    stew, casserole, hotpot, chilli, bolagnaise all can be left slowly cooking, or go for something thats super quick to knock up while she's there like pasta with chicken or fish (tinned or fresh) do you have any pesto? I go through tonnes of sun dried tom pesto, I luurrrvve it :drool: it makes a fab sauce for anything if you mix it with a bit of warm cream or even milk and reduce it down a bit

    Just sent a chaser to Bizzie and apparently they have chased the company concerned and the milkies will be with me monday latest - well... we'll see :)

    I sent similar when I didn't receive the vest they said they were sending me and it turned up the very next day - don't know if it was coincidence or in purpose!

    Just back to say my appointment with the nurse went well, as usual my bp was a tad higher then it should be becaause of nerves (white coat syndrome) then she took it again and it had gone lower and she's not worried about it. So I can go back in two months time when i run out of the pill, get it checked again and get another pack :)

    I asked my sister to watch elliot for me in the waiting room, to make me less stressed...but i didnt realise she'd have her three kids with her so that made me a tad nervous to begin with as they all get fed up so quickly! He was ok though :) Loves the attention off his cousins!!

    So it will be a boy next, if you decide to have any more :D I get confused too, I often think the twins are 4 days before the 14yo, but it's the other way around. Just hope I remember Sunday, although i'm sure they will all not let me forget :D

    Pretty much sorted. You always think you can do more though, don't you. I think the worst thing is, 14 yo is having her 2 best friends around and Mr on/off boyfriend who is really shy :o

    How old is the one who has a B'day on Tuesday? Oh wait I see it now, 4 on Tuesday. Fun years :D
