Jess – Glad you are feeling more settled. So Pat is the second Junie t reach one, have you got anything planned? I can’t believe they are all nearly 1. When I look at Will standing up I think where’s my little baby gone, he’s starting to look more toddler like each day!

IK – OMG! So not only are you a mummy and doing serious amounts of study but you’re also a fighfighter (yes I am slow!) as well! Bl00dy hell!! Can you tell me which shop you get you’re energy from as I need to go there! Congrats on reaching 1500.

Amanda – I completely understand your vent. It’s a shame he doesn’t want to do family time at the weekend when he works so long hours in the week. He really owes it to you to give you some respite from being sole carer for the kids in the week. Saturday must have been the day for it as me and DH had abit of a barney and that was all to do with me no getting a break ie. Him offering to take them out for an hour. I shouldn’t complain though as when he is here he does just as much for the boys as I do but he goes away a lot and get to do social things like eat at restaurants and go to pubs when he’s away so I can’ t help but be envious and want abit of me-time. Hope your ‘agreement’ is working out.

Bath – Also lol at ‘mothers helper’. Mmm am indulging in some port while surfing BB!

Mel – Glad you had a great Indian – hope you had a nice Thai on Saturday!

Nic – Hope you are feeling better. Gggrrr at your dh for ‘being sicker’ than you – that’s just because he is a man!

Rory – Hope Flynn is feeling better – good sign that he is still Mr Smiley even through an ear infection. Glad you’re not feeling so tired and good luck with your scan on Wednesday.

Had an OK weekend. Swimming was nice but it’s so bad timing that Will’s lesson doesn’t start until 9am as he normally has a sleep around then so he was losing the plot by the end of it. Sunday was good as we went to Whiteman Park which had a Thomas the Tank Engine day with all the steam trains dressed up as the trains so Oscar was in heaven and we had 2 trips on them. They also had some really old buses there and they were open so you could get on them. We made the mistake of letting Oscar sit in the drivers seat – BIG clunk and this metal cylinder thing had appeared on the floor and we couldn’t work out where he’d moved it from so we beat a hasty retreat which of course caused a massive tantrum. Wasn’t really a problem as there were so many kids his age there that the was ‘tantrum-a-minute’ happening all around so he fair blended in!

Will is back to normal though still a bit snotty but must feel fine which is great. James is away now until late Thursday so am abit grumpy but the port is helping (only one small glass or I’d never wake up in the morning!).

Hope everyone’s good.
