  • I'll see how they come out when I go into work next week ;)



    My fairies would be happy to wing down my glass star trophy thingy down to Cardiff for a stint on your mantlepiece if you really want to share??


    Graze....never heard of it...off to have a looksee



    Congratulations on your 1 year engagiversary SS xx

    Graze ... I have some vouchers for a free box if you want me to PM one to you? (PM me if you do, incase I don't get back on later.) You can cancel at any time, so you can get a free one then stop it straight after if you don't want to start paying for them. That's what I originally planned, but I might keep going for a few weeks and see what I think after that.

    I took him Chinese food into the hospital after he complained about getting a hot pickled cucumber salad for lunch.

    :D

    My Mam went and bought me a big sandwich and a muffin after I had Joshua.

    He was born at 11am, so they said they would tell the post-natal ward to save me some lunch back and I could have it when I got cleaned up and settled in the ward (had to stay in 2-3 days after a normal birth with the first then).

    Got on the ward and they fetched a tray of some sort of vegetarian bake dish, which by then was just dried out red mush, dried out mash and dried out boiled cabbage. I just took one look at it and nearly vommed, so my Mam dashed out for a sandwich :o
    Here I go again on my own....

    I posted yesterday but you must have missed it - this thread goes too fast at times :D

    She's doing her's after mine, but I suggested she could bring Charlotte back here when they are up so we both get to see her reaction. She's happy with that.

    She's not all bad! We were talking about Christmas dinner as they are coming here on Christmas day, and she gave me some money to cover the cost of the turkey and the beef (Dad and me hate turkey but love beef!).

    My mum brought me 2 roast chicken barms/baps/breadcakes/whatever anyone else calls them made from the roast leftovers - tasted AMAZING after the gruel I'd had to eat the day before!
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.

    I know I sholdn't but after looking at the quite scrumptious Molly's pics on facebook and seeing how well she can do press ups on her tummy... I started searching for 'developmental milestones'. Amber can't lift her head up on her tummy at all. I know I shouldn't and I am aware that I am just looking for problems... but someone tell me quickly that I'm being silly and that Amber is fine and all babies develope at their own rate!
