Big Boys Need Love Too!

Aww Jenn I hope it gets easier soon for you.

It looks dry so far here today. I am off to the gym and for a swim later this morning then have some things to do this afternoon so I have a busy day today.
 
Good morning lovely people and hi Jenn! It's so hard with little ones isn't it. Last time I went to my eldest daughter's I was so worried about her. She looked awful - so tired! She's looking after 4 kids (3 under 4 and one only a baby) helping with the accountancy, looking after her horses and building a stable block and tack room in the barn. Men are OK with the kids but often the "intuition" side of it isn't there. When my kids were little I used to say "didn't you realise.........?" and he used to give me a puzzled look as if I was speaking another language or something. I pretty much gave up expecting anything intuitive - now with a car, he can hear and feel the most minute things....................
 
haha gem yeah i know what you are saying. I know things will get easier in a month or two or at least when he is on a 4 hourly feed., but with his cold at the moment he isn't eating as much and so wants to eat in shorter spurts and what used to take 30 minutes to feed now takes an hour. But when he is on a 4 hourly things will be much easier and hopefully he will be able to just have a 10pm feed and only wake me for a 2am feed and then i will get up at 6am so that won't be too bad. But LU didnt sleep through till he was 5 months.

Oh BTW my parents are coming now to visit. Not sure if I told you all. I was surprised when she told me but they are coming in september. SO no spain for us after all as we will be needing to money for a trip down devon way with the parental units. But at least they are making the effort...it only took my being pissed off and making myself less available to her to make her come. but since the baby has been born she is making the effort.


taz, thanks hun...sounds like a great day, I cant wait till i am well enough and not too tired to get a bit of excercise in. I am waiting for my 6 week check and going to take the LU back and forth to school on a walk so that should help. Plus I have the fitness coach from the wii to help kick start things. I am still just waiting to feel 100%.

Abz...not long now then hun...you must be so excited. I just laughed my way through my ceremony *LOL* too nervous, but if I could have I would have done the whole white dress big wedding thing. Maybe when we are married 20 years we can do a big something. Only 7.5 years to go...hahaha
 
Glad you're sounding cheerful Jenn, despite the tiredness and good news about the visit x
 
Good morning everyone :)

It's looking like I might have beaten early bird Jim to the worm this morning :)

Off to the hairdressers for 9am so have to be on my toes this morning.

Have a great day everyone :)
 
Morning all, no hairdresser for me. LOL

Last week when I was out in the garden clipping my hair, the black birds were all gathering tufts of my hair to line their nests. :D
 
It's a major operation - takes a couple of hours easily. It's the formaldehyde that does it!!!!!
 
Well, preservation isn't a speedy process - or cheap!!!!
 
Yes well, no comment. ;)
 
loads of purple no doubt ;)
 
Yep - You got it in one Jim. I'm really pleased with it, she's done a good job x
 
LOL, good for you Gemstar
 
Taz - visit to MIL went well. Found out she needed some medical stuff chasing and sorted out the preliminaries but OH needs to sort the rest. Also found out that she misses being able to go swimming and wondered if I could arrange a session for her. She is 89 and a stroke survivor and it could be complicated but I'd like to look into it even if she decides not to go ahead with it x

Bon - I changed hairdressers at the end of last year to a more expensive on as my original one was a little bit shy of putting in the purple. It was so nice that everyone said I should change. I went back to the original girl and was disappointed again so had another trip to the expensive one. Then my daughter pointed out the £20 loyalty card you can buy. Once bought it gives you 20% off hairdressing for a year. I'm already reaping the benefits and have brilliant hairdressing in the bargain x
 
Awww bless her. When I was at the pool today I was thinking about my gran and how she used to love swimming but she is quite old now and wouldn't be able to go on her own - if at all! It would be good to get that sorted as it would probably be very good for her
