Girls, the men that are being pains would have been pains regardless of little ones....its just that we notice it more....hahahaha i had a ding dong with mine cos the washer leaked over the wooden floor in the kitchen and he was brave enough to tell me to "get it cleaned up" i just saw red and flipped my lid...yah cos i had done it on f+++in purpose????!!!! needless to say he soon saw his derrier!!

Just a qick note to say Sarah Davy done the same thing on me the other night he was doin something and said to me you'd better get them bottles done ohhh i was so mad!
I had a good cry earlier and Davy has said he'll speak to my mum and he'll ask her can she take Lewis for an over night give me a complete break and hopefully davy and i can do somethign together id be happy with a kfc and the cinema and early night (completly for sleep) lol iam trying lewis with goodnight milk tonight hopefully that will keep him alseep.
jenna don't they make u mad!!! i can't argue most of the time but its assumed these days that i will do everything because i'm not at work...which is fair eough but then that means at weekend when he is withJames ...i say "can you just......! and i get...."well i've got james!!! so how does he expect me to wash, dry, iron, cook, clean, shop etc etc etc etc etc when I have james???????
we had sucha row yesterday and we were on our way to what was supposed to be nice day...i so anted him to turn the car round and go home cos he just didnt get my point that i can't be expected to do it all...anyway we went out and had awalk aroun Clitheroe which was nice and we went or a drink in th pub and then decided to have tea out....went to another pub but would have waited an hour so we came home and had chinese...not quite what i wanted but hey ho!!
Lttle man had a bad night last night woke up at 2 and 4 ended up having a feed at 4. i know lots of you are still struggling with nights but its real knock when you have got so used to him sleeping and suddenly you have a bad night...feel soooo tired today..
Lewis 2 bottom front teeth have broken through! He's still waking about twice to 3 maybe 4 times a night he's in his own room now which ias good in a way but i keep waking panicking because he's not there i have the monitor on beside my side of the bed but its still not the same. Had a bit of a shock last week at my course started doing maths ohh my how much ive forgotten but once i was told how to do it i remember most of it! As always people just pass the time with me then go off to have there chats with others i dunno i musnt be interesting enough! Ahh well. on the positive side i have made some 'mummy' friends we met at the weaning class ages ago. I quess we do have common ground having babies!
Ohh someone told my mum that Lewis getting his first teeth before 6 months is the sign of another baby! I told Davy and he looked horrified!
Hello everyone, wow jenna teeth already I heard the old wifes tale that early teeth meant another baby don't know what the logic is behind it, unless its because lots of women stop breast feeding when their babies get teeth and breastfeeding is a natural contraceptive, in fact that probably makes sence now I think about it.
Had to take my poor little lamb to the doctors this morning, she's so full of cold and for the last 24 hours has not been able to keep anything down, its not a tummy bug its just the reflux with the constant coughing, she has such a week muscle in her tummy everything just comes back up, I am washing 3 loads a day and my floors have never been so clean, Ella threw up in the doctors just after the doctor had asked is it only after meals that she's sick? just to beautifully illustrate the fact that it was anytime and almost on demand she did the hugest vomit ever all over the floor and my trousers, my doctor couldn't stop laughing but there is not a lot they can do about it, (apart from hand me tissues to mop up before i left, what a sight I must have looked walking back out through the reception area covered in sick, I just wanted to check she didn't have a chest infection as the cough sounds dreadful. I am worried she is going to get dehydrated as she seems to bring up everything and her last few nappies haven't been very wet at all, her overnight one was very dark yellow and not very wet compared to normal, all I can do is keep giving her water and hope some of it is staying down. poor little love looks really poorly and is all pathetic and cuddly, we have had a snuggle on the sofa day, with books and a sick bucket (nice). she looks so thin its amazing how quickly they lose weight, wish I could slim down like that in a week!!
Hope everyone elses babes are fit and healthy, hoping for a slighly less sicky day tomorrow, its been like a scene from little britain in this house today, she really can projectile vomit its amazing where it all comes from?
I hope everyone is doing ok. Ciaran has another cold again, which also means me and the OH are full of cold too!!! We are the sick household... AGAIN.. i am dreading nursery if im like this now... lol
Had to go to the doctors with myself yesterday and i am back there on thursday and monday!!! The nurse was concerned I hadnt been for a smear when I should have years ago (before they changed the age) and my back from my car accident still is no better and is worse and all they keep giving me is pain killers and not solving the problem, I have already had acupunture and pyshio not sure what more they can do... anyhoo the other appointment is the smear - and I dont even know what happens ......
apart from that - Ciaran is trying solids.... well as solid as they can be liquid!! haha - I mean porridge and fruit juice things... he was just having a moan i have put his cup in his hand and he is chewing on it!!! we have porridge in the evening for tea!!! Its the only thing I have found he likes so far...
think our teeth are not that far away!! james is just. a dream to be around!! we really have been blessed he eats well sleeps well is soooo happy 99.9% of the time...
well i have started crimbo shopping and have booked a valebtines weekend away...have i already told u that??? stop me f iav...lol
right just a quickie..will type more tomorrow..loe o youll x x
Sarah I can't believe you are christmas shopping already!!!!! I'll be putting it off until the last minute and regretting it. I hate buying presents for adults, i end up spending way to much because i buy things that I would like to recieve.
Ella seems better today, she has not been sick all day yippeee!!!!! I had no sleep last night though as she ended up in bed with me, I think she just felt yuk and wanted and needed the comfort of being close, but I was paranoid in case she rolled out of the bed!! She's been a proper smiler again today, but still not eating any solids, will start them again tomorrow, if she will eat them.
It feels strange I'm buying newborn boys stuff for my grandson when he arrives, sons girlfreind is due in November, they have nothing and no money, so grandma is indulging her weekness for baby clothes shopping. Its all so cute when they are little, and now I get to buy girls and boys stuff. fantastic i'm in shopping heaven, i hasten to add this is ebay clothes shopping, I have got some fantastic bargins it's brilliant.
i love buying boys clothes (for my little man) although there is not half as much boys clothes as girls. lol
Tomorrow I have decided to go to Barnsley! Im going to see my nan and grandad, havent seen them for a couple of months so I cant wait. going to be ace - only for the day, but gets me out the house.
Ciaran is also struggling with food. I have only just found one he likes apart from porridge!! It Hinez (however its spelt) pasta bolengase (having a bad spell day today).... he didnt like pudding, chocolate pudding - but it was gros!!! hahaha
all doing well. not sure why im still up but definately bedtime.
where has everyone got to?????? Helloooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyone out thereno one up there either hope everyone is hunky dory and not too depressed by the weather which has been sh*t. Ella seems better although now has bright red cheeks and biting everything we must be getting teeth soon, everything is covered in slobber.
Well i'm off to bed. I though I was going to have loads of posts to catch up on but nobody has been on with the exception of you charlene, on the food front have you tried making your own? Ella will not eat jars, but tonight she has eaten shepherds pie and veg just mashed with a fork from my plate, if I give her moulied food that has any lumps in it she gags and makes such a fuss, but she will eat really lumpy food from my plate and and chew/ gum it up, strange child, she likes sitting up at the table with us and being involved in dinner, she even trys to join in the conversation by squeeling loudly in the gaps love her she's brilliant.
Hi all, Iona has rosy cheeks and loads of drool too. We've had some rough nights. Seems to tink 3 am is day time. Last night she slept on her own for first time. Felt like a big deal but she's 6 months on the 9th and so it's def time. Only had 2 feeds which is much better than it has been the last week. Ionas had a cold for last 2 weeks and so it's thrown her sleep pattern to pot. Hopefully it will continuse to get better, I'm sure we wake each other up! Iona likes sitting at table at meal time too anmd is enjoying her grub. Glad Ella is better and has stopped being sick. Is her cold better now? Lifes been a bit hectic with being away and we've had visitors so i've just not been on line. Hopefully life will get back to normality a bit now. Iona is nowtrying to cral and getting v frustrated at not moving! She's nearly there with it than there will be no stopping her!
sorry not been on dont know where the time goes.....
Food wise we are doing really well James has the HIPP Organic Jars everything that i have tried to make him...he turns his nose up at!! cheeky monkey my cooking aint that bad!! he loves the veggie ones and adores cauliflower cheese! he also loves bananas! h
We have Rosey cheeks on and off but theres no sign of teeth apart fro lots of dribble have resorted to the calpol and teething Gel on a couple of occasions, but still no sign...

Just thought i'd pop on and say hi, things are sooo busy these days i cant seem to get time for anything! Ahh well wouldnt be without the wee man he's great keeps me company during the day chatting and squealing away at me he's so funny he says dadda and daddie and loads other things that do sound like words and its just so weird that he seems to use them at the right time like when i ask a question he makes a noise and it sounds like the answer you would give! I dont tell too many people this as they'd think iam crackers but Davy said about to me the other day he noticed it.
