    Hello ladies (and any gents who may be out there)!

    I'm sure not many of you remember me, as I confess it's been a long while since I've been on here. Hopefully I'll be on here a bit more often soon though, as Moon and I are expecting our first baby on 23rd September, so I'll need to clean our hovel!

    Just wanted to share with my flylady friends.

    Hope you're all well!

    Glad to see you back!;)

    Congrats sexy mouse and moon :j:j:j

    If you can get organised and decluttered now it's so much easier when baby is here. I'm still being ruthless even now.

    Took Ben to get his jabs and he was so good and didn't cry. My chunky monkey also weighs in at a shocking 19lb 9ozs! He is 15 weeks old tomorrow. Am annoyed at the health visitor as he says I should be cutting his feeds down as he is "overweight". How can they say he is overweight when they haven't measured him, some of his 3-6 month clothes are to small for him I length so I'm going to take that advice and ignore it.

    Off to do a give Ben a bottle then do a Hhc.

    seafarers_wife check his chart weight compared to his height, larger babies are usually longer and HV may not have looked. Any HV worth their job should! He'll sharp wear it off once he's playing if he's bigger anyway. Daft woman, some HVs do make me shake my head. I was lucky with my first she was lovely and left when DS2 was little and nobody bothered to allocate us another so we moved onto a Specialist HV when he was 6.

    Ok decided I wanted to move the table back so the boxes of reptile gibble stuck in it's place have been sorted, cables with items in separate bags and all advertised on FB. If unsold by next free list day they'll go on fleabay. Brought laundry in and folded it. Think that's all but pleased I got those done as it's been sat in a pile for weeks.

    Progress at last :) I'm going to dive in and do some more until I need to collect Shaun at 4.30
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    I wasn't going to post this week, as I shall be doing very little in the way of Flying; I have Dylan here all week and Mr LW has Tuesday and Wednesday off, and is wfh on Friday.

    But I had to welcome Sexymouse back, and say Congratulations to you and Moon.:beer:

    Oh.... Flying?? Well..... Dylan's decluttered 3 full poo-bags already today:eek: and we've removed as much loose fur as I can get out with his ZoomGroom thingy.:rotfl:

    No, seriously, all the kitchen surfaces have been Dettoxed, and I shall try and at least dust the lounge and hall in a moment; shan't get chance tomorrow (Ostara celebrations), and also we have "A" coming over tonight for cider and gaming with Mr LW.:o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
