    Haa only if you don't mind it being in brash colours with animals popping out of cupboards etc. :D

    Just trying to get the paint on the main wall at the minute - everything's drying a bit darker than I'd planned... :( But nevermind, nurseries don't have to be calm and relaxing and soothing or anything do they... It's not like they ever sleep in there.... !!

    LOL sounds far more interesting than the current 'magnolia magnolia or magnolia' theme we have! Maybe the colours will lighten once they dry? I am sure it still looks amazing, our wall stickers are very colourful but baby wont even be in there for a few weeks at least. I still need to find/ make a light shade, really not sure what I want!

    ooh and my boss has just told me that of the two leaving dates for voluntary redunddancy, April and September, I can take September as an encouragement to go and that way i'll accrue holidays to be paid whilst I'm off. should be around 15 days with bank holidays.
    woohoo :)

    Ahh trina sounds like you have had a more successful sweep than me.

    I've just had the leftovers of a big spicy curry and am planning a long walk in an hour or so. Do a bit more painting first until the OH comes home from work (don't fancy going on a walk on my own just in case, however unlikely it seems).

    Came downstairs to find some parcels had made it in my sitting room... littttle bit odd as it clearly means the delivery guy just wandered in and left them there without knocking...

    That is strange Baba! When I lived in a village it wasn't unusual for that to happen though, posties seemed to have a free pass to come and go as they pleased! :p

    Good news about the redundancy TL! Very good timing! :T

    Really sweet wall decals too. I really wanted a big tree decal with birds flying around but a) we don't really have a good space to put it now that we've got furniture in and b) my SIL stole my idea and put a similar thing up in my nephew's room so I don't want to copy her... even though it was my idea in the first place! :p I'm a bit worried that his room will be a little over stimulating as it's full of bright colours despite having neutral walls but we're hoping that it'll just keep him occupied and happy looking around at everything when he does wake up so he doesn't disturb us! Wishful thinking or what?! :)

    TL thats good news :) definitely takes the pressure off!

    Baba - ive not had a sweep, not due until Friday, just generally moving in the right direction so far. hospital appointment on wednesday so we'll see what happens then. they were going to induce me at 40 weeks due to the GD theyve diagnosed me with, they thought baby was big but it isnt so ill see how i go and what they do next!

    no regular cramping or anything at the minute, just the pressure and some tightenings and cramps, just waiting for something more to happen!

    Sorry!! I think I'm getting confused... I blame the babybrain, obviously... (the amount he is getting blamed for it's no shock he isn't keen on coming out).
