    CONGRATULATIONS Always!!!

    I'm so excited for you. Will you be doing aqua natal again? I used to love that class! Wouldn't be able to do it if I got pregnant again because of the small matter of looking after Erin...

    Question: I have the chance of going on a work trip to Washington DC at the end of June next year which is somewhere me and OH have wanted to visit for a while to complete our USA travels (My flights are paid so it saves a bit of money to combine work and holiday). Do you think it's doable with a 20 month old? I think the flight is 8 hours.

    Becles - were the fabrics you had in your basket just pieces of fabric or were the fabric items? (hope that makes sense!)

    Just random pieces of fabric. My Mam used to do a lot of sewing and I just raided various scraps from her sewing stuff.

    Becles, maybe I should send her up to you, seeing as you are awake anyway;)

    Yes send her round. I'm sure she's a lot more interesting than watching House Doctor and stuff :D

    No Call of Duty here. I'm hoping the price goes down when the hype is finished as the boys want it for Christmas.
    Here I go again on my own....

    Jenny I think the main scary thing is the toddler need to move and run around. Coping mechanisms depend on Erin, but colouring books and toys... I wouldn't expect it to be easy but it's "only" 8 hours then it's over and you never see your fellow passengers again! ;)

    Today I have pretended to do a full day's "work from home", driven OH+E to playgroup and then collected them, built a superking size bed "requires two to assemble", got OH a 2 hour nap while I played with E, cooked supper, cooked dessert, put E to bed... then resettled him so far 22 times. Why on earth is he still waking up now, it's nearly 11... :( we are assuming some 'developmental step' has got him going into overtime or something... he's never been a great sleeper but he hasn't been this bad for many months!

    E had first tooth at I think 4 months and the rest all relatively quickly, except he still misses the two upper back molars, about 8? months since his last tooth came in!

    Congratulations Always :) very exciting, sounds like it was a definite plan and you were expecting it? :)

    Hellllooooooooooooo!!!!!

    Have been *scared* over here by some the lovely ladies, hehe.

    Just had a nosey and realised i really should have come over sooner as there are so many familiar names here from back over *there* (Hiiiiii!!!!! *waves frantically like a nutta again*)

    Anywho just thought i'd pop in and introduce myself :D

    I have 2 munchkins, DD who is 4 and half (going on 15):p and DS who is very nearly 6 months and very much mummys boy (and will do anything to be in my arms 24/7).

    :)

    :T MGEB. About bloomin time :D

    Kitkat - I hate to tell you this but you're describing what T was like at 13 weeks....he is now 6.5 months and still no teeth :eek: He's had intermittent bad times since then where I've been convinced the tooth will be through the next day. Hope your T is a bit quicker lol

    I made my weetabix cake. It tastes amazing but I lined the tin with greaseproof paper and it all got stuck round the sides and bottom :(

    Hello

    Glad to see you made it over here at last:)

    How are things going, how is dd with her little brother?


    I am up at silly o clock as T refused to drink her bottle before bed so has been restless and whinging every 5 minutes from 1am, so I have given in and come down to feed her:cool:

    she is nearly done so will whizz her up to bed again in a mo...


    Silly question here, does what time your oh go/come to bed annoy you?

    ETA - omg the temp in the babies room is 7 degrees! I might shove another fluffy blanket over them both!!
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
    Nothing is going to get better. It's not.
