Good evening everyone
hugs to those who need one today, hope everyone is ok. I leave you all alone for just one day and look what happens, sheesh! :rotfl:
Haven't had chance to read through yet or post so will not be boring saying what we did do at the house etc, apart from spent the evening at the Metro Centre and Ikea buying sme bits and pieces for the house we neededshopping, Argos had the Transformers curtains in for DS1s room so he's happy
. Kids behaved really well too which was a very pleasant suprise. My poor friend has now been in very slow labour for nearly a week, 6 minutes between contractions, no sleep for days and the poor girl is exhausted, really feel for her as I was the same with DS2, going to pop over and see her tomorrow. Hardest thing at the minute is keeping up with normal stuff when we're trying to move/build/take stuff down etc. Shed being dismantled and collected on Saturday so one more thing out of the way.
Oh forgot DSs funny comment of the day, looking towards shoe shop we were walking near 'Oh no shoes, shoes, shoes, don't go in there shoe buying is bad for you and Dad's credit card' :rotfl: where he's picked that up from I don't know, DP has more shoes than me!
Much more of the same tomorrow, actually while I am here I can do a list, will add to tomorrow if I think of anything else
