The Ultimate Incentive Part 11 (or 10B) It's The Final Countdown

I'm saying nothing... I was kept waiting far too long to go into labour! It was only the threat of induction that got him moving

We had quite a nice weekend. Braved Ikea yesterday and picked out a load of bedroom furniture which is getting delivered next week, yay! Just need to get our 'feature wall' papered before then (for those too chicken to paper a whole room!) and get some bedding, curtains etc picked out. I also need to have a massive clear out since we're having to take the old wardrobe down and switch it with the new one... argh!

I'm fully expecting another month of pregnancy if I'm honest! Be nice if he came soon, mostly because we're all ready and waiting, but I guess it'll be when he's ready.

Exciting about the new furniture, Birdie!! Best thing we did when wallpapering was to pay a few pounds extra for the paste-to-wall wallpaper paste. Which might work out cheaper anyways when you factor in getting a pasting table?? Hope you'll share pictures when it's done!

Champy the rabbit sounds like an adorable idea, I remember getting things like that at school and having to write them a diary!

Would love to see a before and after photo Birdie!

I'll make sure I take photos We're not bothering with a pasting table as the wall's only about 3m so will be a very quick (I hope!) job! We've got this paper so need to get stuff to match now, having a bit of a vintage travel theme going on... I think!

In even more exciting news, my Emma Bridgewater stuff should be arriving today, finally! Eeep! :j

I love that paper, bet your room will look lovely!

Heidi has another cold so awful sleep (compared to the bad we normally have). Seems like its one thing after another . Never had this with Poppy but guess she didn't have a germy big sister .

Hoping to go to mothercare today to use up last of the vouchers i got when Heidi was born. Need a new changing mat as other ones falling apart and a sitting up bath seat.

Taking the moses basket, and baby bath and seat to my sister in next couple of weeks which will get them out the way.

Sorry to hear you had a rubbish sleep Wendz. I don't know how you do it, I've such admiration for you. Can their Dad take them any afternoon so you can get a good sleep for a few hours?

He's at work most days but has started taking both out for a bit when he can. My mum has offered to come up and look after Heidi while I sleep if I can't cope. I think I'm so used to it now I just get on with things but is hard.

Maybe take your Mum up on the offer Wendz or can their Dad take them overnight at the weekends for you? Sleep deprivation is a cruel cruel thing xxx
