    yer weezlie im making her a butterfly shaped one .. but i need to make the icing and i was wondering is it easier to use stork or do i get butter just to be safe x
    it'd probably taste fine, just a bit more 'margeriney' IYSWIM? Have you got some stork in? just taste a bit and imagine itsweetened and that's what the end result will be like :rotfl:

    morning searchie, mm and mel :)

    mel, is DH being a bit better, you sound brighter, so I hope he's behaving! ;)


    Morning Weezl - I do feel slightly brighter thank you:)

    I do keep having off days/moments but dh has done sooo much in the boys room I can't moan at all....I actually cried yesterday because my body won't allow me to do what I usually can iygwim.

    We have had a chat and I realise I was trying to overstretch things for christmas and had taken on a lot with het decorating alone, so am trying to take a step back...

    Mel x

    oh yes! I definately get what you mean! When I went to see the GP he told me to go for a run after fergie's in bed. I nearly cried. Some evenings it feels like a marathon to get up the stairs!

    glad you're taking a step back :)

    Yep...I feel terrible because i is all essentially my fault, if I had never left work to go to uni everything would have been fine....the kids both need new coats and I can't afford them yet. ds2 was complaining his is hard to get on/off because it is too small...I know it is but there is nothing I can do about it yet. I like to get them decent wind/waterproof coats like berghaus because we walk the school and back everyday, so feel it is only fair, they have mainly cheap clothes but shoes and coats are the only things I refuse to get cheaply!!

    oh my goodness Weezl; i want to eat him up. he is such a gorgeous lil man!!!! I vote for Number 3, the one above, as you can see his gorgeous eyes and the rest of him - so u get an idea as to how big/what age he is in the photo iyswim!?? But all of them are adorable and i am sure they will be delighted with any!

    Oh dora, its awful not being able to sleep. i feel for you. hope you are feeling ok today!! xx

    SS, i think option 4 is what i would personally do, but as MM said, do what is important to you and OH and Molly, its your 1st christmas together and you dont want it tainted by anything or anyone!!

    weezl; i quoted you again and it hasnt appeared and i have forgotten what it was about.......oh yeah, your doctor; why on earth did he recommend going for a run!????? Also, how many weeks are you now?

    mm, whats the appointment for today hun? Hope all is well. xx

    I have woken up with a toothache today!! :eek: I could cry. I havent been to the dentist since before Katie was born (:eek:), bad i know. but im petrified. although thats no excuse either. I built up some courage and phoned round a couple to get a NHS place for OH, the children and myself, :eek:finally got one who will take us just down the road, but next available apptment is 25th Jan!!!! Ill give it a couple days and if my tooth gets worse I will ask for an emergency appointment!
    Carla-Farla!! :)
