I'm sure his weight will go up a lot quicker when he has his tongue done. Must be hard to feed with it as it is.

thanks i hope so. its funny you have started a blog and what i can manage one handed is more like tweeting.

mental note dont go uninvited to visit new babies in the evening when their parents are exhausted :mad:

A useful reminder to me given I'm getting urges to do just that. I get to go round on Wednesday though...fully invited. Yey!

bet you cant wait. is there something wrong with me, i have just marked some coursework??

been to hosp, op done, all ok. got lovely togs for the boy from dh's work.

dh sent to mr s for cheapie baby grows, came out wth girl ones...sometimes i wonder. he didn't realise boy clothes had their own aisle???

Sounds like something my DH would do. I was so impressed when my BIL went and bought my niece tights and got it right.

Glad the op is done. Hope it heals quick for him.

haha, I can laugh because I have done that!

In fact I was once sent with the mother inlaw to get some black trousers, I came back with brown ones (we both swore blind in the shop they were black).

Thanks Michelle.

LP i sent my Ma for school uniform trousers in black or grey and she came out with navy...but pink flowers are hard to miss, surely??

Mum's flowers from M and S lasted three days...not good. They did refund me and I got her some mugs instead (bridgewater spot) but i would prefer the flowers lasted.

Been to vet for weighing(puppy not me!) wormer and de fleaing. dh sent off requests for money from his mum's estate, in the post office 45 min...there must be a company that collects mail from you surely??

Right, well, busy day. Booked in to register baby's birth. Went to pub for lunch. Went for a lovely dog walk. Puppy training classes starting soon. Puppy met another dog, and they got on well. Two visits from neighbours, well three but one of them we didn't invite in.

DH went to see DD1's concert, midwife came. Arranging some stuff with plumber for bathroom, think we are going to have downstairs loo extended and changed to be a shower room. Mr S delivery. Phew!

Notalot of sleep last night...but surviving ok. End of term tomorrow as well, DH has dentist and the house needs to be reclaimed.

Baby has gained 3oz in 3 days, so not so worried about his weight now.

Sounds like he is thriving then. And Mama sounds like she is doing ok too. I found my boys were both hungry horaces from the start. I believe girls are less so from what friends tell me.

Hope you catch up on some sleep over the hols. That is when it is great that your DH is also teaching.
