    Noooo don't throw them away - they're collectors items.

    morning!!

    SS- hope your OH has his op today!! cant believe he had breakfast!!

    busy day here. have financial advisor coming at 11am. we are taking out a life assurance policy to make sure that if anything were to happen either/both of us, Kian would be provided for. Got a quote from AXA last week, so hoping that this guy maybe able to get the quotes down a bit.

    Kian slept all night again! did wake up bout 3 or 4 and I didnt get out of bed to pick him up like i have done in the past. but he fell back asleep. so no harm done. woke this morning to him playing with his cot toy, that rattles.

    and finally its payday!! so can order the rest of our christmas presents

    Do you give us all different voices?
    That sounds a brilliant idea - read out MSE and give you all different silly voices based on your usernames :rotfl:

    Too late - but most of them were dirty and/or half used.

    Susan, I mentioned last night that hubby and I have decided we'll try for another baby in about January 2011... Sami is going to try and convince her hubby that a number 3 would be good at about the same time too...
    Well depending on when Alice stops breastfeeding, I might be pregnant at the same time. Soemtimes I feel jealous of other people who are having babies sooner but I know that if I was as ill as last time I would just suddenly have to stop breastfeeding and I don't want to do that.

    Carla My hair fell out too - but it does grow back! I've now got short bits either side at the front, and a 2" fringe hidden underneath my real fringe! :eek: I don't remember it at all with DS - but had the bizarre fringe look with DD1 too. I wonder if its a girl thing?


    Searchie Good luck with the driving lesson. Is it busy roads this week?


    :jfor potential new babies. OH is still not convinced we need another. :o


    Hugs & :hello: to everyone else. I've been trying to keep up, but not posted over the weekend.


    OH, DS and DD1 were all recovered from D&V by Friday night - so it was only a 24 hour thing for them.


    DD2 however, is still poorly! :sad: (It will be a week tomorrow!)
    We're going to the Drs later this morning - but i'm not sure there is anything they can do. :confused:
    I spoke to nursery this morning - the bug has hit the baby room and the tweenies room quite hard, and it's taking each child a week to recover.

    bruno, are you around this morning?

    I had another idea about your HMRC thingie... If you and OH give away any money to charidee in the years in question, then you would also be entitled to tax relief on that which might offset what they're saying you owe them.

    HTH :)

  • Morning all. I'm not normally here on a Monday, but got a call at 6:45, which is never a good sign, so knew it wouldn't be good news before DH passed the phone over to me. It was my Mum to say my granny died last night :(

    I'm ok, but keep remembering stuff, and didn't want to go to work today. I will have to stay off tomorrow, as they have gone up to sort things out so no childcare. After speaking to work I'm now thinking I probably could have gone in today (nursery day), as my boss was a bit funny with me.... but sod them. I'm getting past caring with work at the mo tbh.

    So yep, here I am. I'm interested to read about potential babies... will have to read back later and see what I've missed!
