    Good morning early risers (just GISI, Hammy and lurking Aless? or are there more of us?)

    Som I also love your mammoth posts xxx

    Hugs to you too Gill :)

    R.mac I too was organising yesterday, I worked magic in the pantry although I found alarming amounts of stuff that had been stockpiled. However, some of the oldest/most battered looking/probably not still good stuff was secreted out to the rubbish while my little family was out.

    I hope today is a good day for everyone.

  • A pack of pampers for less than a £ here https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/2832278. I got size 4's delivered to store, but you can get littlie ones for even less than that. I love a good grabbit in the morning when everyone else is still asleep.

    I am jealous of folks who got organising yesterday. I need someone to whisk my little boy away for a day while I am home so I can get sorted but it never seems to happen.
    :DYummy mummy, runner, baker and procrastinator :p

    Morning - we're up too! She's been waking around 5.30 since the clock change. :(

    Tia I hope Amber is improving this morning and you've both managed some sleep.

    ((Hugs)) to all the other poorly LO's.


    I didn't get on yesterday, I had a mad cleaning/ironing day. I think we're going to Costco today to stock up on meat and see if there are any bargainous christmas presents.

    My Evans order was refunded last night. :( It was only a scarf for Nan. Was it the £9 discount they weren't liking, or using it along with the free delivery one. Because yesterday morning they emailed me a £5 off voucher. I was wondering about ordering again using that one?

  • Morning all. I was up early too, just not here have been busy with sb and bingo posting. I hope everyone starts to feel a bit better today.

    I need a few days to do some organising too - have got a few days off at the end of the month, so will be able to do a few bits then though :) I have to pay for nursery regardless, so I will send her in for at least some of the time so I can get some things sorted :)

    Morning all
    Elle, did you ever tell us what your OH-rage was caused by? :p

    Bit of false alarm last night I guess as OH's contractions came and went... she still thinks the tiny one has more fully fully engaged now though, so it might've been a bit of a warning shot.

    Elijah came to see me at 2.45... woke up to him patting my hair saying "Dadden wake UP! Need nose wipe. Need sleepytime.". Got up, wiped his nose, tucked him back into bed, returned to sleepytime!

    Hope people are feeling better this morning!

    Morning Bruno I missed your excitment last night.
    OH may just be experiencing the stronger BH's that seem to happen with 2nd babies. (And the stronger afterpains she has to look forward too).

  • Oops, I told Izzy that tweenies were on next, now she is having a slight temper because they are doing the birthday cards first. I should never have mentioned it ;)

    Morning

    Dropped off to sleep quick but woke up at 5am again and couldn't get back to sleep. I hate insomnia and it's driving me mad why I keep waking so early. I tried staying up till late on Sunday night, but I still woke early.

    Got work to do this morning but not too much.

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

    Thanks 3 - yeah, that's probably what it was, but it was such a sharp change from the BH she had been having in recent weeks that she wasn't too sure.
