    I have babies on the brain, I try not to go on too much with friends who aren't interested so sometimes it spills out in other places :P

    I'm a little scared for when my turn comes around as my dad is a twin and it skips a generation so there is a big chance I could have twins :/

    Afternoon ladies, hope we're all well. Absolutely snowed under at work at the moment. We've just entered our busier period and this is the first time we've been so severely under staffed at this time of year. We have a new lady starting with us on 7th Nov which will ease some of the pressure administratively - at the moment I'm trying to do my own job and about 50 million other things at the same time, so hopefully I'll be able to pass those things over to her!

    Time for a spot of lunch so thought I'd pop on and have a catch up... got left over chicken and chorizo from dinner last night, yummy. :-)

    I'm a twin and there are twins in my husband's family as well, so I did wonder. However my mum had clomid (a fertility drug), which is how I ended up being a twin, and in hubby's family it also skips a generation. If we have a daughter at any point she might get twins. At first I liked the idea, then having dealt with Joseph's constant feeding I don't know how I would have done it. Combining breast and formula right from the start I expect, and being strict at getting them to latch and feed well.

    There are twins on both sides for us too, because I was so sick, up until the 12 week scan several people wondered if it could be twins making it so horrendous. But nope, just the one naughty baby in there :)

    Afternoon ladies.

    Went to body pump this morning, home, quick shower and then took my daughter to a careers event at th college. Was a bit pointless really and not worth it but hey ho.

    Home now, laundry in the drier, going to chill before heading back to the gym to go for spin.

    I'm off to Manchester with my MOH today, going for a facial and rasul treatment then having afternoon tea at The M1dl@nd hotel, really looking forward to it as it will finish my week off nicely plus my MOH has been extremely stressed out with work recently, so needs a bit of relaxation time xx

    Morning All,

    Have a fab time Mrs MW!!

    Only have a half day to survive today (survive being the key word today only been in a hour and I'm already being hounded by people) on the plus side get to go and see wedding cars, the venue and my best friend who I haven't seen since April and ask him to be my witness at my wedding too.

    TheNewMrsBarrett that sounds so lovely I'm sure your MOH will appreciate it. I want to try and organise a surprise spa day next year for me, mum, nan, mil, moh and the two bridesmaids but not sure how to do it??

    Enjoy*** your time away mrs w! Don't worry about LO he'll probably enjoy it and see it as a holiday too!

    I love dp for normal clothes! Their jeans are the best fit I've found to accommodate my out of proportion bottom! I've tried pr1m4rk and n3xt, n3wl00k r1v 1$l4nd m4t4lan even had some l3v1s which were ok ish but then with the weight loss they all hang off me now, even my fav dp black stretchy ones hung offf me so a trip to town on Saturday saw two new pairs of dps that were in the sale too .. yippee. Best part was I needed size 8!! My booty has never fit in size 8 jeans even when I was a teen and I used to have to get a bigger bottom half than top half so used to have to get 12s to accommodate it ... seems I'm finally in proportion!

    Been out, done some shopping, treated myself to a new sports bra, sports top and a book. Only probs with the book, right now I am too tired to even focus on reading it. Desperately need to hoover up as well but cannot find the energy.

    Joseph has decided that morning starts at 5:30am. He doesn't sleep after his feed, and stays awake until late morning. Yesterday I managed to sleep through some of his chatter, not this morning. Hubby was nice as he slept through Joseph feeding, so took him into another room eventually so I got another half hour. In fairness to Joseph though he slept from 8:50pm until 5:45am.

    I slept in until 940 this morning, I did though have a very restless night where I kept on waking up loads. Got up and watched a couple of greys anatomy and put some laundry on, just been out to get food.

    Toe is throbbing a little today but I think it's starting to knit together and heal.

    Had a really active day yesterday. Took my car the dealer for the recall, waslked around the res whilst waiting for it, took LO for some lunch, cleaned the bottom of my wardrobe out, played badminton for an hour with LO on the back garden, made dinner, my sister came for half an hour then watched SCD.

    I was shattered come bedtime! Stupidly I forgot to unset my alarm so it went off at 5.15 this morning and I just couldn't get back to sleep!

    Today, LO is at his dad's so I'm going Christmas shopping, food shopping then back to clean through the house and do the laundry.....

    I start my new job a week on Monday so need to sort my clothes section of the wardrobe out to see what I have and haven't got......

    Slept awful last night, did not get the extra hour in bed that's for sure.

    Hubby has lost his v5 for his van, and it's most likely because I or someone else have moved it, not him.

    Joseph didn't do too badly with the extra hour. We had a late night as we went to a celebration of a wedding that was back in August. We were going to the earlier part so took Joseph as there were people who wanted to meet him. Plus it started at 5:00 so a babysitter would have had to put him to bed. We expected to leave at 7:00, and gave him his evening bottle at 6:00 as normal, then hoped he might nap in his pram. Some chance, there was far too much happening. Things ran late as well so we left at 8:15. He had at least had a long nap in the afternoon, and slept on the walk home. We got him to bed at about 9:45, he went to sleep gone 11:00. Apart from waking at 1:45 (after the clocks changed) which just involved a quick breast feed to settle him, he went through to 5:45. Then he went back over until 8:00. Otherwise it's been a normal day, he slept on the way to church and on the way back after lunch. He's gone to bed at 7:00 as normal and was asleep by 7:40.
