Hi girls! Finally have had time to sit down and post and my computer has decided to have a fit so hopefully this works!

Jas - fantastic idea on the birthday list! I cannot believe they are all turning one. This time last year we would of all been little waddling pregnant ladies - except Mel. What an amazing year it has been!

Mel - So glad Jack had a good day for his birthday and that everything went well at hospital. Haven't had a chance to say how sorry I was that it happened. They are just so quick at this age - yesterday Tom found a can of flyspray (have no idea where he got it from) and sprayed it. Thankgod it was pointed away from his eyes but I just couldn't believe how quickly it happened.

Nicky - are order prehaps? Certainly sounds like it to me. I know absolutely nothing about temping etc - but I do think 4 faint tests are a pretty good sign. I never had a strong positive on mine and I was definiately pregnant. Let us know how you go xx

V - glad you are enjoying work. Daycare is so expensive - excellent news about Jason's mum looking after Avaleigh. So much nicer to have money in your own pocket!

Jan - I am drooling over your cooking..

Megan - so nice to hear from you! I have been wondering how you were going. So sad about the funeral and that your friend won't have counselling. I guess all you can do is be there for her if she needs you. I had to laugh about Lucas loving milk. Cheeky monkey.

I think I have run out of time for any more personals.. A quick update on how everything is going here - birthday preperations are full steam ahead. We are having two parties - god help us, but thankfully both only small. The night of T's birthday we will have all DH's family here and then the sunday after, have all my family (they live a few hours away) and some friends. I haven't really thought about food too much which I need to do. I keep adding to the present pile - naughty I know but can't help it. Yep, I have pushed my luck here - better be off to play with the boy. Will try to come back later.

Quick question - what does everyone give for lunch?
