Preparing for a new arrival in 2011

Glad you had a great xmas Wendz but sorry you were poorly. OH was not quite himself other the xmas period but well enough to join in with everything!

I hope you all feel 100% again soon xxx

Thanks both of you, starting to feel better but OH still feeling a bit rough poor thing.

Haven't really been doing much due to feeling ill. Ventured to Sainsburys yesterday and got a few bits including dishwasher tablets (got a big box as was half price and should last a while) and also washing tablets. Also in their sale stuff they had some bibs half price and some little bootees so got them. Starting to get a good collection of stuff for baby together.

This morning OH and I went on a venture to shops but only bought some leggings and some lightbulbs as he wasn't feeling too good so we came back. Think it will be another chilling day although will try and get some washing done.

Well I managed to do some washing.

I have also been doing some listing on ebay. Got some beauty freebies that are actually worth a reasonable amount so selling them and attempting to sell some of OH's watches that he has had for gifts over the years and never sells.

I have a bid on one of my items and lots of watchers already yay. Hopefully will make a little bit of money.

I have just booked our car in for service and MOT in a couple of weeks. We wanted to get a full service so if there is anything wrong then we can sort it before we run out of money! We know we will probably end up buying some new tyres but hopefully won't be much else wrong.

Off to the doctors this afternoon for my 24 week appointment.

All was well at doctors apart from i have an infection so have antibiotics for that. Baby is very active apparently

I have just listed another couple of things I have found on ebay, anything we can sell will be really useful. Might have a look through my clothes tomorrow.

I managed to find a few bits of clothes last night and have listed them. There is also a bid on one of OH's things that I put on which is good.

Today I am going to try and sort and tidy the last few bits of my stuff in our room. Also going to do any surveys that come through.

I don't have any plans for tonight as OH is working till 3 am so just going to watch TV but not really feeling up for anything anyway.

Hope everyone has lovely new year celebrations tonight. xx

Just managed to withdraw a £10 Amazon voucher from a survey site. Have £30 Amazon vouchers now which I am hoping to either put towards OHs birthday present or something for baby.

Happy New Year everyone! 2011 is the year my family will begin so very exciting. Also makes it scary that I can say baby will be here in just over 3 months eek.

I am getting a bit addicted to watching my ebay sales. Have bids on 4 items and lots of watchers so going good so far.

We are probably going to be driving down to southampton to see the family today when OH gets up.

Happy New Year Wendz :j:j:j:j

I hope this year turns out to be a great one for you. I am looking forward to time with my new niece the arrival of my new nephew in feb and our wedding in May

Oh and of course debtbusting too!! x

Ah Thanks Kel! Lots of exciting things happening for you too!

I have had a nice weekend. We went to Kent yesterday for my Aunties 60th and had a meal with all the family. Then today we met up with OH's mum, sisters and nieces for some lunch. His little sister gave us some really sweet little things for baby bless her. His nieces are so sweet, the older one kept saying 'Auntie Wendy you have a baby in your tummy'.

My Mum ordered our pushchair and carseat (was on offer) this weekend. Is a silvercross 3d one. We pick it up in 2 weeks, exciting! Was really lovely of my Mum to get for us and is a big expense that we don't have to have now. OH's sister has just offered us a bouncy chair as well... we are doing well!

The car started making some funny noises on way home, OH is going to take it to be looked at tomorrow. Hope is nothing too bad, got a feeling this will be an expensive month carwise!
