Morning everyone
feeling a bit sleepy again as DH was up and gone at goodness knows what time, and charlie woke me at 6:15, but i keep bringing him in my bed in the morning and conning him to have a bit more kip and a cuddle till nearly 8.

Morning! Thank you so much everyone for the hugs and thinking about us! It means a lot and is lovely to read - thank you xx DS is back in bed and I'm up and 'ready to leave the house dressed' instead of 'slob in the house dressed':rotfl: Feel very, very jittery today - get this check done and then hopefully we'll be discharged next time we see the consultant. Health Visitor is doing the routine one and she'll ring the hospital and get us in sooner to see DR if needed. I KNOW there's nothing wrong, we had brain scans to check there was no brain damage and hes a right little hell raiser;)
so it'll be fine (keep telling myself this) but still am papping myself about it. Best thing is to keep busy till she arrives.
Happyathome - good luck at the DR’s
Lil me - how are you today? Better I hope
maralum - glad Owen is getting on the mend
Michelle - Poor Charlie hope it all sorts its self out, Sam had one foot sort off bent up when he was born but it has corrected itself naturally with a bit of rubbing - think he was squashed in there as I’m not very ’wide’, though if they do refer him its all for the best - well done on the papers! Enjoy swimming if you make it, I love taking Sam, did you see 'Water Babies' in Meadowhall on Sunday, they were there on Saturday? We do something similar every week but at the local pool and its ace and cheaper
rach glad the wedding appt went okay DH and I changed venues 8 weeks before ours, the first did nothing they promised and was worrying for months we made the wrong choice and managed to get a cancellation last minute at a local Statley House and it was brilliant, sure everything will work out but don't settle and make worry, change if you need to

Anyway, might mess about on here till baby wakes up, have a good day y'all! xxLightbulb moment 15th Feb 2007:doh: Now Debt Free and plan on it staying that way!

Hiya
Well, i'm only working this morning so i'll catch up with all the jobs this afternoon. I've had my hair cut shorter so in the time I saved not having to wash it this morning I did some ironing. I never iron as it's DH job but as he's working away I thought i'd do some. I aimed for 7 things and did 18 - i'm truely sad counting the items I ironed! Logs off muttering something about needing to get a life!
Have a lovely sunny day xxJanuary budget

Afternoon all
I just don't know where this morning has gone to. Beautiful day here. Been working on the service sheet for tomorrow AND............ done some flying! :eek: well a bit of flying. Loaded DW last night but forgot to turn it on! One load of washing this morning and erm that's about it :rotfl: :rotfl: Have been to the supermarket for a few bits including flowers for DD, DS and I to put in a teddy oasis to take to DH tomorrow after school so all in all quite pleased.
My priority was getting stuff sorted for tomorrow as I don't want any stress associated with it, trying to stay positive. Plus I am trying to keep busy as today in particular as I am doing a lot of 'at this time he would have been doing...' type of thoughts.Service sheet to print this afternoon, list already done for things to take down to church tomorrow. Just got to wait for SIL to bring her photo boards, asked her to get them done last week while kids were off school but she won't be bringing them until about 9pm tonight :mad:
Anyway hope everyone is well, HUGS for all those that need them and hope various meetings/appts all go well.
Will look back later.
