I'm like that. I was going to put our wedding anniversary date on Facebook and then realised I couldn't remember when it was. I knew what month it was but had to look the day up on our marriage certificate later

Same here
But we are going out for a meal all by ourselves on the 12th Feb for a mystery shopping job, so we're looking forward to that. We never get out on our own apart from mystery shopping meal jobs
I have officially been 'smoke free' for a year. Well, a year yesterday really. This time 1 year and 1 day ago I was stood on the patio with preg test in one hand, cigarette in the other and the biggest grin on my face you could ever see.
Yay - well done! Craig has given up a few times, so I know how hard it is. You must be so proud xx
Random question (and one that's been asked before but I'm going to say it again
).. how many weetabix do babies here eat?
Charlotte has two and asks for more! I think she has a secret weetabix addiction as she refuses to eat anything else for breakfast, and she talks about weetabix frequently throughout the day

what do you lovely cuisine-experts do with a silverside!?
it is scaring me defrosting in the kitchen cos its just soo huge!!!!!! im so wick at this cooking malarkey if its not chicken!!!! *insert rolly eyes smiley*
Silverside is quite lean, so it's better slow cooked or pot roasted. You can still cook it in the oven like a normal roast but don't over-do it.W
Pregnancy & labour was fairly easy first time round but who knows what will happen 2nd time?! I might decide I definitely don't want a 3rd!
Don't count on that! I had a pregnancy and birth from hell with Charlotte, but I still would like more
Fromage Frais: I usually buy whichever brand is on offer although I don't like Munch Bunch ones. If none are on offer, I buy the Tesco Disney ones. I think they are £1 for 6. Charlotte likes the Petit Filous ones with the layer of fruit puree on the bottom. She calls them jammy yoghurts :rotfl:
Conception: I know Charlotte was concieved on the night Sunderland beat Leeds 3-0 at Elland Road
Bizarrely she was born on the 5th May and weighed 7lb 3oz which was the anniversary of Sunderland beating Leeds in the 1973 FA Cup final 
Been drinking vodka and cranberry juice this evening. A friend said it's a good choice as it's good for vaginal health and I keep randomly giggling about that
:rotfl: Here I go again on my own....0 -
I'm sure a lot of my friends (my age) think I've had a baby "early" because Craig is older out of some sort of duty. They've never said as much, but when it comes up in conversation and I say I just stopped taking my pill and he just "went with it" (I do recall his words were "Yeah, stop taking it if you want and we'll see what happens" - laidback, us?!
), there's a look of relief on their faces that it was actually my decision and "my older man" didn't somehow bully me into it *rolleyes* :cool: 0 -
philip does want alot more kids then me but i wouldnt let him bully me in to another one or two (one at the most i think) .. but its something i think we definately need to talk about and work out an inbetween x
Still searching .....:)

becles - my mum had me 7lbs 5oz, then my sister 9lbs 11oz and vowed she wouldn't have anymore! But she had another 3!
:rotfl: at your choice of drink tonight! I'm a chav, I have no money so I drink Bulmers :cool: it's cheap and drinkable
I am fed up of my hands being so dry - I feel like I'm constantly moisturising them. They are so cracked

i am actually surprised that he didnt turn his on when i lifted the lappy again. Although he has found an episode of Family Guy he has never seen before. I dunno how. I detest it.I'm like that.

lol maybe, I just noticed that if I show people ebay stuff on here it tends to go for more than expected, I assume it shows up in searches or something :huh:........
AKA Tia?
PS This msg was so hard to type correctly and I've only had two glasses of wine.. I'm officially a lightweight!
OH's Auntie has had to face that she'll never have a planned baby of her own. Uncle has 4 from previous marriage, she had to face that if she wanted to be with the man she loves then it meant no babies (unless they win the lottery) they just can't afford itMy_Fathers_Daughter wrote: »Wrong of you to deny Lucy???
What a strange way to look at it.
I am certainly glad that my husband (who had 3 boys already) didn't just decide to have children with me because it would be 'wrong to deny me children'. In fact, I would find that incredibly insulting.
I apologise if I have picked up on a minor point or a turn of phrase and turned things around but personally I would rather be without than be given a child 'out of duty'.
night all x0 -

have you ever tried Hemp hand cream from body shop I think it's amazing. I have really bad skin on my hands permantly start bleeding coz they are so cracked then I use y hemp cream and in a couple of days it's fine again. I really should use it every day but just forget!!
Carla I didn't think I was a chav but I ust be coz I like Bulmers 2!!Everyone is entitled to their opinionEllie 25/12/070
