Wow she looks tiny vanilla, but look at her now, she's gorgeous, my youngest was 4lb 11oz and 6 weeks prem but only spent 2 weeks in SCBU thankfully. Matthew is HOPEFULLY coming home on Wednesday for a little while before his major op, Mam is on a side ward with him now so she can look after him herself etc which is better for bonding and such of course, still not the same as being home but better than being seperated when he's so young.
DS1s parents evening went great, they're having to get extra science work for him because he's past the level they are learning, his handwriting still be worked on, oh and hogging conversationsmust get that from me. They're really pleased how well he's settled in etc, it helps that they don't just give him his own way when he plays up, unlike the previous school!
Flying, erm, we went to book DPs next tattoo does that count :rotfl: need to collect kids from youth club in a mo so will do more packing after that. Transport for the bigger furniture tonight might have fell through so that is on hold for now. Bit annoyed as when I opened the last drawer it came out, DP said they didn't so I unpacked them all and bagged it up, I'd have chuffing left it in the drawers and took the stuff over in it if I knew that!One day I might be more organised...........
GC: £200

Now I'm annoyed... I have left 2 messages on the answermachine at school and they haven't go tback to me!! I am NOT impressed.. DS2 was taken to school by DS1 today so there wasn't an issue, he also walks to the bus stop with a boy from his class so that's not a problem.. but DS2 has to be there for 8am tomorrow so goodness knows how he will be in the morning!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0

Kids feed and tidied up.
Going to hoover kitchen. DS3 due to go home any minute and he is going straight in the bath and bed
Ds1 scrumping. Next door have an apple tree with laddened overhanging branches, I'd go and ask if it is ok but they are not in and I know they wont mind.
DS3 has now lost the plot and is laying on the grass screaming - Just put him back on the IQs to try to regain some sense.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -
I did wonder whether it would be the kitchen tomorrow pigpen as I kept reading that you'd been doing bits in there today, so I guess it pays to run the list, as you have a headstart on everyone else. lolEnjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.I married Moon 8/4/2011, baby boy born 26/9/2012, Angel Baby Poppy born 8/11/15, Rainbow baby boy born 11/2/20170

Not at all.. I usually have just as much to catch up.. I did the kitchen today because my TD is in there and being repaired tomorrow and I didn't want the engineer to think I'm a complete slob!! The back room is tidied too because he has to walk through it to the kitchen!.. Otherwise it would have been left too!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0
