Morning everyone, been up since 6 when bub projectile vomited everywhere. Seriously have never seen so much sick. He was laying in his moses basket gurgling happily, the all of a sudden he did a huge burp and *splat* and he started screaming He was covered, the basket and bedding were covered, the carpet and even the curtains were splattered too. If he'd been facing the other way he would have got me, laying in the bed next to him! So I've had to scrub the carpet and curtains, strip his bedding and wash it all, bath him, all before 7am! Have just fed him again, and he threw up down my neck and cleavage, so I hope he's not ill. Have a feeling it's going to be a long day...

Not really got any specific jobs to do over the weekend, just keep up with the washing and S&Sing. Weather is pants so going to be stuck in all day anyway

Have a nice weekend everyone x

Afternoon all

We've had a lazy morning here and off out to catch up with friends this afternoon.

Was a busy couple of days at work, was late home last night but it's over until next week so that's ok. Miss A couldn't wait to get home to show me her bedroom. She and Nanan had gutted it and tidied up which had me misty eyed in appreciation for Mum. They did a great job and Miss A is all the more determined to keep it tidy now. Pressure on now to get the rest of the place sorted so she can have friends for a sleepover!

Hugs to everyone as I am still not up to date with all that is going on but am getting there.

Later gators x

Thanks very much for that, what a fab idea. I will have to get my thinking cap on and try to write a list for Jan 1st . Well done with cracking on with your list and hope your hair cut grows on you .

Valli - very amusing exploits in Valliland, thanks. :T
Prettypennies - you are not being pathetic worrying about them, I know I did with mine :eek:.
