    I decided to back down in my strop with my mum (she hasn't called since hubby went into hospital, despite me texting her to say he was in recovery) and ask them if they would visit tomorrow so I don't get too lonely. She said they would as long as my brother doesn't want them to have his kids for the day (mum is having them overnight) - way to make me feel special mum *rolleyes*
    So not only does she not know how hubbys surgery, or that he is still quite poorly, or that he can't have any visitors, I am still not a priority when I clearly ask for help because I am lonely :(

    Go on Harley - having leftovers for dinner first but will treat myself after since the boys are all out! Actually they bought me a nice box of Thorntons chocs and some flowers and each of them bought H a new toy so it's worth the extra cooking etc!

    Love the pictures Jillie! So grown up, being on the swing!

    ETA - Glam, I think I should send DH's friends round to yours to show your BIL how grateful he should be!!!

    Hello all,

    Happy Birthday to Annabel! And Happy Birthday to Violet for tomorrow in case I am not on. Are you having a party for her 3?

    3 - happy birthday to Vi for tomorrow. Are you having a party (is that the reason for the Costco trip?)

    Thank you ladies (and everyone else). No party, but open house for visitors. Probably both sets of grandparents, aunty, uncles and a couple of friends with little ones.

    Costco trip was for cake :drool:, just a plain Victoria Sponge which I might decorate. Little Sister was also pricing up party food - she's throwing a going away party for her OH as he's going to The Galapagos (sp?) to work for three months.

    Gorgeous pics Jillie.

    Excellent ebaying Searchie. :T Have you got the bug now, and you'll be searching for more [STRIKE]junk[/STRIKE] stuff to sell?

    MFD Sorry I didn't come on in the early hours and tell you all how much I love you - I wasn't that drunk. :p (Although I have felt absolutely dreadful all day and had to have an emergency medicinal Costco hotdog).
    Hugs for OH, and :mad: for your Mum. How can you be lonely with all of us here to keep you company. ;)

    :jYey for toothy, standy & climby babies. :j

    I'm not OK - I don't think I'll get much sleep :o but on the flipside J might sleep better so who knows?!!

    Hi 3 - happy birthday Vi for tomorrow!!


    Fitzio - send them round! OH was saying about watching the superbowl tomorrow night and ordering pizza (he was joking cos it's on at 1am) so I said 'I would be really nice to get a Chinese wouldn't it?' Fell on deaf ears!

    I guess I'll have to wait for IL's to come up and get them to buy me one :D
