Glad it's all going well hon

Looking forward to a pic - but no pressure! I remember all too well that I didn't even get dressed for weeks after the kids

But Sea, remember this is Choca-super-woman we're talking about - she's probably already been up to check that the attic is still tidy and manged to list about 100 items on Ebay already this morning (while I sit here deciding whether to bother getting dressed now, or leaving it until 3pm when I've got to go to work!)

Hope you're taking it nice and easy, look forward to the pics just whenever you're not too exhausted to do them. I still haven't sent out DS's thank you cards from Xmas, so don't worry if it takes you until his first birthday!

Lol, nope, sitting here in my dressing gown, telling myself I must go and get in the bath as my aunt is supposed to be visiting at some point this morning and I doubt she'd like to arrive while I was still semi-naked :eek:

lol!! I too am in my dressing gown, but agree pandapaws - you are very organised and super woman-esque chocaholic lol!!!

Hope you have a lovely visit from your aunt

Not quite sure how I've managed to miss all the goings on here over the last week or two :rolleyes: Congratulations choccy to you and your hubby, thank goodness it all went well in the end :beer: I sat here sobbing my heart out while I was reading it so I now have big red puffy eyes

Oh, bless! A few people mentioned being tearful when reading it, then I ventured onto another thread where I was being discussed and I ended up crying just reading that too! I think i got off lightly as I was in too much shock to really take in the seriousness of the situation - it was probably OH and my mam who have had the hardest time!

And isn't it amazing how we have all never met, but can feel for each other's crises and traumas? I seem to spend my days feeling alternately pleased, excited and outraged on other people's behalf. OH never ever ventures onto the site but can still have quite a discussion with me about hypno's kids' ski-ing trip, panda's house move and we are both inspired by benben's mortgage overpaying!!

That is so true! I talk to my business partner/best friend about what's going on, and I'm sure he thinks I'm absolutely mad.

Been trying to find some photos that actually look like Tom in real life but they don't do justice to him at all - he really is much cuter in the flesh! It's really difficult to get a photo with his eyes open as the flash makes him blink every time and as the camera is slightly delayed his eyes are closed by the time the photo is taken.

But here goes with a few from the day after he was born through to today.
