I cant imagine ever being near the top, im in the 3rd month of the 2010 list. And 2010 is aaaaages away isn't it?

I cannot believe you March lot are almost into your 3rd trimester! Feels like I just started mine!! :eek: :eek:

always - yes, I'm v glad we live in small flat on 1 level, though it makes sorting where to PUT everything quite difficult. Have now realised that need drawers of some sort for baby clothes, but don't have a clue where on earth we'd put them. I think I've just about found space for the Christmas tree to go up this week...one of the disadvantages of small flat + baby + Christmas!!!

and when on earth did it get to be so COLD outside? Was mild autumn then all of a sudden *BAM* freezing outside! Supposed to be 1st frost tonight...poor DH, still haven't sorted out a coat for him so he's going about in sweaters bless him.

I'm self employed Kindof so can stop whenever, thing that makes me not 100% sure on what to do is that I'm planning to start applying for proper jobs after baby arrives, and waiting it out til the job I want comes along, so I'm not pushed into taking any old job iykwim? So part of me thinks I should take maternity earlier, so I get the full 39 weeks, in case I happened to find a job sooner after he's born? But then the other part of me thinks I should wait so I can stay off til December time, but that's a pants time to job hunt Gah, really don't know.

Really rubbish about the car SJ Hopefully it'll keep going for a bit longer. I'll come & ferry you around if you get stuck Did you get to pick up your pushchair from MIL?

Ooh EA the highchair sounds v slick I saw a new one in Ikea the other day it's a big moulded black & white one that I was loving the look of

For Feb/March ladies, are you buying a jacket for LO in first/0-3 month size? I'm not sure whether to bother, as he has a snugglesuit thing, and a snowsuit bag thing from Gap that he could wear outside? (Clothes buying has become my new obsession now the nursery is virtually done :rotfl:)

I cant believe im going into my third trimester either! When people said to me at 7/8weeks that pregnancy goes fast i didn't believe them, but now all of a sudden im in the double figures for countdown and i have so much to do still!

I need to work out where to put the xmas tree, all of our 'good' corners in the room are being used by the tv, the desk, the table with the fish on and the door lol. I might stick it behind the door or next to the fish tank.

The weather is horrid isn't it? It keeps raining hailstones here which scares the hell out of the cat, his food and bed are in the conservatory and the noise it makes on the roof is so loud. He goes down to eat realy quickly then runs up here to hide with us lol

I wasn't to sure about the whole coat/jacket thing. We have 3 snowsuits for 0-3months lol. I bought 1, mum bought the other and the 3rd from an ebay bundle. And then we have 1 in 3-6 months, but she'll be 3-6 in June/July and August time.

I have to stop buying clothes, we have no where to store the ones we have hehe. Unless i clear out some of my stuff, but i dont want to

Hmmm but then on the other hand you might be able to find a temp job easier nearer christmas?

We havent got him a jacket, but we have got him a padded fleece waistcoat thingh, cos we have snowsuits for him, then I dont think I will be going out much in the first 3 months, but he has a load of jumpers, and then after 3 months it will be June so warmern?

June here is still freezing!

I've been looking at baby bridesmaids dresses for our wedding

Also, if your looking for a permanent job, its harder to find at xmas time as places only really employ xmas temps. Which they rarely keep on.

Ok, think I prob won't bother with a coat, thanks He has one jumper and a couple of cardigans, so think that will probably be fine?

Job wise I'm going to start applying once he's born as and when I see the job I want come up - the field I'm looking in would prob be best applying summer/september as new projects rarely start around Xmas, so think I'll be best taking it sooner? So hard to know what to do as I can't predict the future, and might struggle to find work, but then I might not, bleruuuuurgh!

I'm so flipping cold - sat fully dressed in bed but just can't be bothered to get up and put the heating on!

Still bouncing on my ball but now my right knee is hurting I give up :rolleyes: - lol
