oh dear babygates - just another hazard for me to contend with!
I was going to clean the bathroom while I wait for my hairdye but I figured I'll have to wipe the dye off afterwards so won't bother yet!
First hairdye I've used that has gone straight on looking like the colour it's supposed to be!A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea

This morning went ok, dd played nice for a change and stuck to the plansI had a little panic when dd had gone to the childminders but I pulled myself together and made it into the office on time.
Just text the minder to make sure she is ok, have been sitting on my hands all morning trying not to! She says she's fine
Not so much flying but I have cleaned my desk and pinned up photos of dd
Hope everyone is well and having a good fly day

Smartie are you ok? Have you seen the doctor or midwife or someone about the bleeding and feeling ill? It sounds very worrying
I saw a silly old man doctor who had the "oh well not much you can do about it" frame of mind:mad:
I have a scan in 2 weeks time so I'm praying that bean is ok. Bump is getting huge already so I'm guessing bean is fine and just being a bit naughty!
Don't worry everyone - I am taking it easy BUT the house is getting to be a disgusting mess:eek: I'm doing little bits at a time. I can't wait to get to a stage where I can do a MAJOR declutter!!

I've washed up, and done a mega filing/shredding session. Have completely cleared the "to shred" pile, and am now keeping up with bits of shredding that I'm finding in the big bag of paperwork. I need to do more shredding from my folders of ancient bank statements etc so I can use the folders for the more recent stuff.
I completely cleared the table last night as things had been dumped on top of my nice piles of paperwork. DH has been given strict instructions not to put anything on top of those piles again so that I can get on with sorting paperwork, instead of using the time moving things off the piles.
DH also has been given our wedding certificate which I found, bit worried about giving it to him but he needs to take it somewhere to show someone and then will be bringing it back. Scary stuff, it's going out of the house! I don't like important docs leaving the house, if they stay here and get lost then we know they are in the flat at least. If they are out of the house and get lost, they could be anywhere!
I've got to cook dinner tonight so am going to start that soon. Going to make mince and lots of veg in pasta sauce."Snowflakes are one of nature's most fragile things, but just look what they can do when they stick together."
