Hey well done that girl!
Two weeks? That's about 100 squid saved already......
Time for a shopping splurge, methinks!
-
Oh Chris, that's lovely! It is such a magical time: lots of 'firsts' still to come!
We now have the 'copying mummy swearing' first....not that I do it much, but at the moment the boiler stopped working guess who was standing behind me as I let out a furious 'bl**dy h*ll'?
We now have miniature Roo running round saying 'buddy hare' all the time (I try to pretend it's the name of her soft toy bunny, but I don't think I'm getting away with it......

Hey Louby,
Don't beat yourself up over it: like Chris says, it's just a blip, and has at least confirmed that having a ciggie is no longer a nice thing.
I used to be a 20+ a day girl and after many, many times trying to give up, I finally did 2 years ago, and have now got to the amazing position where I can really truly have the occasional social smoke (one ciggie every couple of months or so) without wanting to start again.....
What you're going through is a physical addiction: even one day of not doing it is a great start, and to have got to 5 before temporarily cracking is just brilliant.
Hang on in there, it really does get better....

Just a quick update: Miss Nellie is virtually back to normal: has been eating and sleeping loads, but is back to her normal cheerful, if a bit impatient, self!!!!
Now we just have to try to wean her off all the chocolate, DVDs and limitless supply of telly that she's had today..... :lol: :lol:
-
Oh bless!! you can clearly see the cat is a hit!!!
oh yes: they whirr and clunk like good 'uns and madam is besotted! IThe big one also hisses if you pull it's tail which is a bit scary! :lol:
-
Pirate Nellie :lol:
Love the cake, did you make it?
Yes. Joint effort between myself and Mr Roo.
Tons and tons of chocolate, so I think you would approve!
Thanks to everyone for your kind wishes.
Shuggee: awwwww shucks [creep!!!] :lol:
-
Wow, that's flown by quick
looks like she's making a cake already :lol:
Oh yes...she's a bit of a choccy cake fan...can't think where she gets that from
-
Good on you AH!
And the really daft thing is that there is no such thing as a 'pure' brit...we are a people who have always been the result of mixing from all parts of the globe, over many thousands of years. To say otherwise is just plain ignorant (and racist, etc, etc).
-
Oooo...you need to get some of that stuff that you drip on the back of their neck and then you don' have to do it again for ages: can't remember what it's called, but I think it might be 'frontline' or something like that....fantastic stuff!
-
no pics
Oooooo...I can see them: wonder if Photobucket went down for a bit?
-
Good on you, John!
Little Nellie is very fair and spends the whole time in direct sun in a big hat, long sleeves and factor 50: I think some of the other parents think I'm a bit over cautious, but I just couldn't risk her getting frazzled!
-
Thanks for the lovely thoughts: much appreciated. Things seem to be going from bad to worse, but there is a funny side too: turns out there is a memorial fish and some legacy doughnuts......
More about that when I get a moment to write more.
-
But it doesn't rhyme! :lol: :lol: :lol:
-
Congrats Katie...must be a real weight off your mind!
-
Actually OON, unless you can prove your parentage is 100% caucasian English over 5 generations, we will deport you too.
Oh...and you and all your children should have blond hair and blue eyes.....
Long live St George...
Hip hip hoorah!

Ah well...Ollie nicked her baby bouncer, so she nicked Ollie's mat!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
[great mat ain't it...she loves the windchimes we got for it!]

Oh Katie...you poor dear! Mini-Roo had reflux too so I can really sympathise. Have you tried baby massage? This book was recommended by our health visitor and really helped us:

What a coincidence! Nellie had her last set of jabs today! But luckily she didn't grizzle nearly as much as last time, and, as a precatuion, I retired to bed with her this afternoon to snooze and watch snow...I can't recommend this anti grizzle technique highly enough
Sorry to hear Tilly is being pestered by the baby police (I know so much how you feel...they spend loads of time telling you that they always trust mums to know their kids best, then whammo, suddenly tsssssssskkkkk, there's just this little thing they need to keep an eye on, sure it's nothing to worry about, but would be failing in my job, etc, etc.....)
Sounds like the house is moving along too....
I so admire you...one toddler, one baby and a second house move....WOWOWOWOWOW!!! :o

She's now 15 weeks but, like I say, is a scrap. She's below the centiles in weight, but is chuntering up in a nice curve nonetheless...she's just doing it all at her own pace! Apparently she's typical of some preemies...
-
Oh Katie......so very sorry to hear your news. I know exactly how you feel as t'other half got made redundant twice in one year during the dot com crash....horrible!
BUT, as you say, maybe this is the chance to open a new door and do something fun? Hope so...
-
glad to hear you're getting a bit of time together as a family...and I LOVE the name! How cute is that?
And as for rellies, mothers, etc....run, RUN! :lol:
-
oooo well done Katie....
another little net weather girlie!
-
oh dear...I actually know what one of those is.... :blink: :lol: :lol: :lol:
