Congratulations Wendz! I bet Poppy is so excited to be having a baby sister. Glad everything is going well 😊

Wow, that's a lot of girls Wendz! That little boy will either be inundated with blue stuff... or get a lot on pink hand-me-downs!

My Mum is really keen for me or SIL to get pregnant again because she wants a granddaughter... not quite sure I can cook girls to order! :rotfl:

Hi all! Wendz congratulations that is so exciting and it will be so lovely for Poppy to have a sister !! Great that you kept most of the bits too - will def save time and money not having to buy new things!

NIM congrats too on the promotion, sounds great and glad you are enjoying it!! And Lara the US move sounds incredible - well done and so jealous!! Let us know how it is!!

That Zach photo is so cute!!! is the hat home made?

Not a lot is happening here, work is busy again and I'm tired but payday was recently (felt like a loooong time since before Christmas when we were paid early!) which is good and meant I could review my house deposit fund which is slowly but surely increasing don't think ill ever be able to afford to buy a nice place though! Will probably waste it on holidays!

last time i had my hair cut.. my mum did it! how cringe is that! (but also MSE ) I need a proper haircut but I don't know what I want/what will suit me etc and also i have fear of intimidation at hairdressers! Never had a dry cut at a salon though i always thought i had way too much hair for one of those!

I get the fear of the hairdresser Tink. It's why I don't go more than twice a year! When I was getting my hair done last week I just willed the time away whilst staring in horror at the new forehead wrinkle I've developed (thank you overhead lighting for pointing that one out!). :eek:

Zach's hat is indeed hand knitted by MIL. She's made him loads of things. I just put my order in and a few weeks later he comes home wearing it! Did you see his reindeer hat on FB? That was a MIL knit too. :rudolf: He came home yesterday wearing an adorable baseball jacket style cardigan with a little Z on the front! So cute, I want one in my size! :happyhear

wendz86

Birdie85

Morning all! Hope everyone is well?

Hope you had a lovely birthday Dinah and everyone is feeling better.

I'm procrastinating at work as I have a lot to do and only 3 and half days to get it all done before I'm off to the new job. Oh and it's not just actual work I'm doing, I'm also teaching people how to use their stupid computers! How are you Birdie?

Birdie85

Sounds fun Ruby! I hate that feeling of having so much to do that I can't decide where to start so just bury myself in things like MSE instead! I moved jobs/offices last week (they basically just split my job description in 2 and moved me into a different department along with my manager, but it's good. More of the work I like, less of the rubbish!) and I'm so glad as there's a new guy started on my old team yesterday and I *hate* teaching people new systems etc so I've dodged a bullet there! I got a glimpse of him this morning and he has ridiculously over-styled hair which would have just distracted me! :rotfl:

I had to work from home yesterday afternoon as Zach got sent home from nursery for having a high temp, not eating, really upset etc (think it's just teething but they were worried he was coming down with something) and I have no idea how people actually work from home on a regular basis with littlies at home! Typing one handed whilst cuddling, when not being held hostage having to break off every 3 minutes to rebuild a tower/line up little wooden animals etc, it's not easy!
