    Happy Birthday Kiera! :D

    Supposed to be leaving for church in 2mins but still in pyjamas... Just realised my friends baby is being dedicated today and I really should have got a gift and made a card... Wondering whether to just give this morning a miss and go tonight on my own (leave the children with Daddy) as there are baptisms and tell my friend that I'll give her the gift next time I see her... Or just hurry up and get dressed and go this morning anyway...

    Should have left 2mins ago now...

    Damnit!

    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Morning everyone! I was in bed around ten last night, the monster's teeth are still keeping her awake so we snuggled in and kept her company.

    SO TIRED. And I have to go to the office three mornings this week, and OH has just announced that he needs to be at his all day every day, after I told him last week... I've no idea how we'll manage it, both us having home office most of the time works out fine and this is the first time we've both been obligated to be somewhere at the same time. EEEK.

    Happy Birthday Kiera.

    Have a fabulous day.

    Krystal - it's the baptism service at our church today, but our minister split the service in 2 as it just got to hectic with all the baptism families for the older members of the congregation so it gives them chance to leave.

    The sunny weather has put me in the mood for a holiday so I am sitting here browsing deals but the Direct Hols website keeps going blank when I see something of interest! It's annoying me.

    I might go back to bed when Holly goes for a nap (although I always think this but rarely do, so probably not). Hubby will be annoyed if I let him sleep too long, but he will annoy me if he gets up and doesn't get ready for hours so he might as well be in bed!

    DH is currently cleaning garden up after dog, Katie is being his audience.

    Then it's hair brushing time and off to church for us.

    Must remember to drop the food order of at the soft play place where we're having Katie's party on Saturday.

    KOAG I toss spaghetti or tagliatelle in butter and herbs and then use them as a side instead of potatoes or rice. The herbs I use depend on what the meal is.

    Happy birthday Keira!

    Glam, when the pics were being taken I was trying to work out what Chris was saying, sounded like 'room', but that was wrong and he was getting a bit !!!!ed off with me. Still have no idea what he was going on about.

    I'm so glad DH got the snip and I don't have to take any contraception. Sounds fun for you all.

    Tired today, need to do something to wake up.

    Oh, we got home last night and the carton of milk in the fridge was frozen, check and someone had turned the fridge up to max. Asked Chris if it was him. No, it was a bad man who sneaked in the house when we were out in the car and turned the fridge up.

    Morning all..
    :bdaycake: _party_ :DHappy Birthday Kiera :D _party_ :bdaycake:

    I went to lie down with Rhys on our bed for a bit last night.. and woke up three hours later, whoops! :o Another 8am waking.. seems to be working :) When I went to fetch him, he was at the top of his cot with his legs at a right angle kicking the cot bars. Think he just wanted his legs free to kick harder! :cool:

    I thought we were doing well being dressed by 11am yesterday but we're sorted by 10am today :D OH will be expecting me to do housework during the day at this rate! :o

    Glam, if you were on FB there's a pic of Tia on there :p;)
