MFD probably finished talking about it now but I don't see what it's got to do with ex what you, hubby and B do when she has her son at home! DSS would have been with MIL if she had n't insisted she have him instead!

2 days between elena and K IIRC!

CBeebies is awful but I quite like C5, apart from Noddy! I actually hate him so much I think I may have issues!
Hes a jumped up wee tit!

:rotfl: Yes, you have issues!!!

I am incredibly tired today despite only being out ast night until 10.30pm! Did have 3 drinks though, maybe that's it. And A was back to being up at 5am for a feed. Bless him, I didn't even wake up until he was actually crying after he went back down either. It was 7.30 so he was prob awake for at least 30 mins before he woke me! :eek:

Tara how many cupcakes would you need? Those boxes are ok but not that sturdy. If we think a courier would manage to keep the box the right way up I have boxes to send them in. (Asda tupperware boxes hold cupcakes much more snugly and are actually cheaper than cake boxes! :money: )

SJ, Tara, there's a website where you request quotes for couriers for specialist items, so if you specified "fragile cupcakes" they could quote for delivery. Our bed is being delivered by the company who bid the lowest, our quotes outside the quote-auction thing were three times what we're paying.

Hope you get the wedding plans sorted out Tara.

Busy day here. Need to do some housework as we've got family coming over tomorrow for a tea party. Charlotte is 3 on Wednesday, but with jobs etc., it's easier for everyone to get over here tomorrow.

Sarah_Joanne

That's fab SS, thanks. I will use that and see what comes up. Be good to remember for the future too.

Sarah_Joanne

Right, quotes requested. Tara you are 275 miles away from me!! Not entirely sure that the cost of the courier would be cheaper than those M&S cupcakes, however the cupcakes would be nicer lol

Right, Alfie is now napping so I need to go bake! My friend's mum has a knee replacement last week so e are going over to see her this afternoon so am taking cupcakes to cheer her up. Oh and Alfie as she hasn't met him yet :A

We're finished with the Tour of Dodgy 70s Music Videos Husband has been inflicting on Molly because she's gone for a nap. On the plus side, she loves Iggy Pop and loathes Boston :rotfl:

Ebay photos and clearing out my sock drawer on the list for today. Damn, but things are exciting when you have a baby. Actually, the New York Times has a moment in time thing going on today where you're supposed to take photos at 4pm and we're going to do that later on. The plan was to go to the Englischer Garten but the weather is a little bit unlikely.

Morning...we also had a pretty good night. I'm starting to think that maybe we do need a blackout blind after all, as Finn slept until 6:45 and it's all dark & rainy outside. The blind we have now is pretty good, so I thought he was just waking up because he's a baby but might see what happens over next few nights. Oh and also Finn's didn't wake for food until 3:30!! :T (so 6pm to 3:30am for feeds, woopwoop)

I about killed DH last night! Sometime after midnight, heard Finn crying so I nudged DH awake (he TOLD me to before going to bed). He clearly wasn't all the way awake and stumbled into the bathroom rather than Finn's room. So I got up to attend to Finn (grumble grumble) thinking that DH would come in to take over after leaving the bathroom. Instead he goes straight back to bed and sleep!! He swears to me this morning that he doesn't remember any of it. Men.

Getting our free photographer coming over today - of course it's horribly rainy so no pretty outdoor shots .

Managed a bit of a nap

I had best haul my a$$ out of bed, hubby came up with a coffee and to tell me Benjamin had eaten breakfast...I am guessing a lie-in AND a bath would be cheeky lol

Morning all, children slept 'til 6.30 (5.30 being the norm!) must be the cloudy weather.

We have the small lego out today and I am trying to not get stressed at the constant "have you seen another piece like this mum" every 30 seconds!

I have been a stepmum for 11 years now and the first 5 years were a nightmare with OH's ex trying to cause trouble between us so we'd split up.
( the only reason we didn't was because I wouldn't give her the satisfaction!)
Anyway all is good now, the kids are old enough to make their own arrangements with us.
I admire your attitude MFD and wish I was more like you.x
