Morning all, thank you for all the congratulations! I'm thrilled to be having another boy, although I remembered last night about the whole weeing in the eye thing :rotfl: I was hoping to be able to sew some pretty dresses but trousers & tshirts are easier anyway
I'm meeting some friends in town later so might go and buy some blue wool to start knitting something for him, I have been knitting baby stuff since our 12 week scan and have enough cream hats and mittens to last a lifetime :rotfl:
I'm going to start off with another HHC in my bedroom at 10.00 if anyone wants to play? It gave me such a good boost yesterday and DH was so impressed with what I got done in there - of course I didn't tell him it only took half an hour!
I've washed 1 load and got another one in. I'll do one more after that and then I need to take it all to the launderette to dry as we have no space, and one load alone takes about 3 days to dry if I hang it in the bathroom!
I'll get going on the list after my HHC, I hoovered the bathrooms yesterday so a quick whizz round with the mop will make them sparkle.
