    Thanks everyone, we have our fingers crossed. We have weighed up the possibility of him having to work Christmas day and decided it is still worth it. We will just get around that problem (maybe I could have every Christmas off due to having no childcare!)

    Have pottered around this morning so the kitchen looks better than it did a few hours ago. Have done all my survey invites (there weren't many!) and now it's time for work. I soooooo don't have the energy!

    Not sure we have childcare for tomorrow either as I think we are going to be let down (always need a plan B with childcare!) Have text DH to arrange something. Hopefully going to the beach on sunday if the sun decides to reappear.

    Well the sun is shining and I have no work for 2 weeks! Looks like we will be going to the beach tomorrow! :j

    I think I was in holiday mode in work as I was so tired, it's so hard getting through that last shift!

    Need to cut the lawns this afternoon if I find some time and energy.

    Feel like I'm not making any money at the moment, I think when I was selling stuff I was having regular dribs and drabs of money coming in which made me feel I was doing more. Let's hope Onepoll money and GTM cheque arrive quickly so I can make an extra OP! :D

    It gets better, back for 2 weeks and off for 9.5 months!!!

    DD spent second night in her bed but woke twice, 1st time cried for a while but settled quickly the second time. Trampoline arrives tomorrow (an early birthday present and bribe) so hoping for a better night tonight. I went to bed at 10pm then got no sleep between 12 and 3!

    Hopefully off to the beach today but it's a really cloudy so possibly not worth it. Sun is trying to break through - please try harder! :)

    Too cloudy for the beach so we went to a local ice-cream farm which DD loves, she has had a fantastic time and is having a mammoth nap now - she is worn out! Meant to just do a top up shop but spent over £60 but have bought loads!

    We are all exhausted now but DH is preparing a yummy roast chicken dinner.

    Hope everyone is having a good Sunday and some of you have sunshine!

    I've been awake since 3am :( I'm sure I had pregnancy insomnia much later last time.

    DD woke once and went back to sleep after a wee, took her about 10 mins to go back to sleep and there was no shouting! I think she's cracked it!

    Onepoll money has credited account so I have transferred that to savings for now. I will probably OP it though as it was so difficult to earn :D

    DD's trampoline is arriving sometime this morning, I can't wait to see her face! She timed it perfectly with being soooo good at night aswell.
