    Hiya sweets, when was she born? :D

    Do you want it to be new? Some on here have suggested the Netmums nearly new board for stuff like that.

    Weezle, following our discussion about iron tablets the other day. I just remembered i have loads of the iron/folic acid tablet 'pregaday' that i was meant to take in pregnancy.
    Will these do or shall i get just iron alone? :) x

    Omg there's no way i'm sleeping tonight i just saw the biggest spider ever it was so fat and huge. I tried to kill it but it ran inside the boiler :( Now it's set off my paranoia. I've put the plugs in but i just know there's more lurking. I swear i need hypnotising i wish i wasn't so scared :(

    Morning all. Welcome sugar, and Beanie did you go to sleep in the end, or are you still cowering?

    Izzy refused to nap all day yesterday, went to bed at about half five, then was up for two hours at ten pm, and we've been awake for an hour already. This was not the plan. I shall demand a nap today, seeing as DH is still sleeping!

    We are off for swimming, in-laws and garden centres today :)

    Ouch Ladybird! That's particularly brutal. Is something bothering her or is she just in a crazed phase? :p Swimming, visits and garden centres sounds like a good day though :)

    Ladybird that doesn't sound like much fun.

    19th May, think I must have missed that discussion, can I come? :o

    Well my lovely boy slept through from 8pm til 6am. He went back down at 7am after feeding and is still asleep now. Methinks I am very lucky.

    Well looks like a lovely day here so far. Ought to go put some washing on really.

    I'm excited today too, my BIL's parents are coming over from Australia to stay with him and sis for 3 weeks as sis & BIL are renewing their vows next weekend after their wedding in Oz last year. I went over with them for the wedding and stayed wil BIL's parents for a month so got to know them quite well. I'm really looking forward to seeing them again, and them meeting Alfie and DH :D Yey!

    Morning all, sorry ladybird that sounds like no fun at all :(

    Great news MOTM, but the teacher resigned?! Was it a jump or be pushed sort of deal? I'm glad your 12yo is happy anyway.

    Restless night here, as predicted Husband was up all night and climbing in and out of bed, and bed is very uncomfortable. New bed is finally arriving tomorrow, three months after I ordered it, and we will no longer be sleeping on a bag of rocks and broken springs pretending to be a mattress.

    He used to have one, briefly! He's a proper boy. :p When I met him he had a pimped up 306 with a stupid exhaust, blacked out windows and a hole in the bonnet - i used to make him pick me up/drop me off up the road rather than humiliate me in front of my neighbours! :rotfl:
    He's currently got the M3 for sale because it's costing him a billion pounds a week for work. He keeps showing me cars he's been offered in part-ex like mondeo's/volvos and i keep saying they're lovely proper dad cars!¬ :rotfl:

    My OH a proper boy with his car too! Soooo annoying especially since he wants to take/drive my car everywhere as its 'more comfy'!
    Hes got a 1.8l 20v Seat Leon Cupra. Its insurance is 3 times both of us on my car! Hes abused it something terrible and it rattles in all the wrong places.
    He does love it :A

    Need to finish weeding my driveway if it stays dry today, fun times.

    I've noticed loads of huge spiders recently. I was in the shower the other night and there was one swinging off the shower rack :rotfl:

    Tired here. Charlotte was up crying a few times in the night for no apparant reason. I was sympathetic at first, but then got irritated when she woke up crying because "my legs are out". I grumpily said "well put them back in again" while I pulled the duvet over her and told her to go to sleep :o

    Busy day planned. It's not her birthday until Wednesday, but we're having a family tea party this afternoon as it's easier for everyone to come over today. Best get in the kitchen and start baking as I want to make a corned beef and tattie pie, quiche, Normandy apple tart, victoria sponge cake, muffins and a chocolate cake.

    Have a good day everyone xx
    Here I go again on my own....
