    Ah, what a shame OH isn't home for another weekend! You're so brave getting on by yourself.

    What was it you did in Iraq? I didn't realise you were in the military.

    We're on our second Harry Potter film of the day, Sadie has been good with feeds and napping so hoping she has a better night tonight.

    Tomorrow we're off to church to find out about getting her baptised. Yay!
    Wandered away from the MSE track for a while but am back and on a mission! Debts cleared nearly £18k. Now to start saving ...

    i wouldn't say brave loumac, just doing what i have to i guess.

    i was in the RAF but i left in 2009 to do my degree, and have a family :)

    roo's fed on and off all afternoon, between snoozing, screaming and now being sick, lovely, i doubt he'll sleep tonight :(

    :T Well I take my hat off to you! I was an RAF baby but my dad left the forces in 1992 when my parents sperated and he raised me and my brother. I have the utmost respect for all military personnel.

    Hope Roo isn't too unsettled tonight. xx

    morning, well didnt have too bad a night roo fed every 2-3 hours again, but the first stint i got was 4 hours, which is great.

    Have put roo in his cushion thing and put a cuddly dog thing in front of him and hes been smiling and talking to it!!! So cute!!

    Not sure what to do today, my never ending chores list still needs doing, the decs still need putting away,

    hmmm bubs is asleep, wonder if i could manage a quick half hour on the cross trainer?

    Afternoon! Come on ladies, join me in my weird moment of madness and spring (winter) clean....not quite sure what is going on but i'm on a mission. So far conservatory, lounge and kitchen have been done - all the windows are open and i'm now onto the cupboard under the stairs...wonder what I will find in there?!

    Think the copious amounts of coffee, choc and diet coke have sent me a little jittery towards the housework, lol!!! Not so good on the diet front but fab news for our house! ;)

    Well done on the cross trainer Missy - I wish I had something at home so I could do it watching the soaps or something like that. Bet Roo looked so cute with the cuddle dog thing - bless. I visited my friend last night, she has two little boys - made me even more broody....I can't wait to have a little one. I know you just never know whats going to happen until you start trying ( I really hate that term by the way!) but I can't help but get excited thinking about it....I really can't. Did anyone else feel like that or am I just the weirdo of this group who gets a kick from caffeine and thinks about having a little one??!!!! :-)

    Anyhow, off to the cupboard under stairs. Have a good afternoon xx
