    I know! Skanks! lol. I turned up to get it in last week and they said they don't stock the mirena and had to give me a prescription, and that i'd have to take it to a Boots. I was too lazy to go into town though so i took it to the chemist next door and pleaded with them to order it in, but i shoulda checked today that they'd got it, otherwise i'll get a right telling off tomorrow!! :o
    how stupid, esp as its the most popular one, not like you're getting an unusual one.
    FWIW most chemists get stuff they order within 48hrs if its a common item so hopefully it falls in that group and it's there :)

    I need to find out when my mum is free in the summer hols and book at app for mine, I asked at the doc's and she said atm they can book an app up to end of july, if I leave it I'll forget or they'll have no apps left coz only 2 GPs do them.

    Sami & beenie, it's actually kind of interesting what names are popular in the usa versus over here.

    Morning Aless :)

    We had a so so night too... She woke about half 4 for a feed, woke about 6:45 and hubby got up with her... Anyone know how I can drop the early morning feed?
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

    Charlotte has got one of them magic writing boards where you can write on it, then pull the thingy on it and rub it away. We were playing with it tonight and I was writing words for her. Then she said "write bum now", so I wrote bum and she just giggled hysterically and kept saying "that says bum - hee hee hee hee." Then I had to do poo, wee, boobies, willy and pump which were all hilarious too :rotfl:
    At least she's amused by real words - we were making words with the foam bath letters and I was getting Alice to change one letter at a time so we did hand, land, band, bang, bane. There were two 'e's so she tried each one to check it said the same with each and then she put them both on together. Apparently "banee" is absolutely hysterical - I think it's the only time I've known Alice properly laugh hysterically.

    Morning,

    MM gorgeous pics of a gorgeous boy, hope he had a lovely birthday, x

    Aless, glad last night wasn't too horrible

    3 my sis is 10 and she thinks my constant use of the word poo is totally unfunny :p In fact, no rude words impress her, tsk!

    Beenie I almost peed myself at the pony convo :rotfl: We had some gyppos move in near us a few weeks ago on a Friday night, gone by Sunday morning - gotta love nosey/moangy neighbours :cool:

    Sami I love Edgar's name, if we ever have a second boy I think it'll be his name - OH is totally sold because he thinks Edgar Davids has the coolest name ever!

    Becles, Charlotte is so cute :A

    'Sophie' is the giraffe teether right? Why is it so amazing? OHs dad is off to France shortly and as I'm cheap, I was planning to get him to pick one up for us, but figured I'd need to justify why he must get it?!

    Tara sorry but the tan hand mark made me laugh :rotfl: Did also make me think I need to be more careful, 4 weeks 6 days til we get married :eek: Have you pics of your wedding dress? I need inspiration :o

    We've been up ages - Guy decided 4.45 was wake up time and didn't want to drop back off, wasn't 'my night' but got up all the same so we've been playing and only now has he gone back to sleep! Took him to the docs yesterday to get his head checked out after our trip down the stairs, thankfully he's fine, I felt like the most awful parent ever though, was saying to the doc I don't know how anyone could hurt a child on purpose as I felt so awful doing it by accident, you must be totally stone hearted to do it on purpose :(

    Busy day today, off to Ikea once it opens (debating getting an Antilop - when would he realistically start using it?) then need to go to the mortgage peoples, sort out my house survey, clean the house properly for tomorrows viewing and sort out all my c*rp to take to do a carboot on Sunday morning, tired just thinking about it :o

    Apparently my name is 44th in the US. Alice is 245th and OH is in the top ten. I don't think mine is as popular here although I suppose it's counting everyone who is alive and it used to be more popular. I wonder if the Narnia films have made Susan more popular here recently though? When I did supply in a nursery the children thought I might be from Narnia.

    Gym, we only started planning this wedding in April but the dress was the first thing I sorted as it's being adjusted to fit me. Have you thought about Littlewoods, otherwise it will be Ebay, but make sure it will come in time. X
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p
