Evening
Hows your gp placement going? Is jack sleeping?
Going for my 2nd dress fitting tomorrow so hopfully should fit ok and i'l bring it home i think so i can see my bridesmaid dress next to it
Theres no cakes left in tesco so hopfully when they come in they will be in date for wedding so i wont have to order them especially
Im pretty board tonight, going to my work firends tomorrow for an advanced hen night shes foing for me as shes not coming round town neither is a couple of others from work so were getting together at hers tomorrow instead so they dont miss out totally, they tell me they have a game to play - i actually dred to think what as im not really into games and things LOL
Have you got any plans for this weekend? xx

I bet that would look lovely Heather. I wanted something really simple, the flowers were a bit more fancy that I had anticipated but they look quite good anyway.
It poured it down so didn't end up going to Clumber. It's just a big park really but there are some really nice walks, a lake, bike riding etc. I'm a national trust member so it's free to get in otherwise it's £4.50 which i think is a big rip off!.
Poor Tyler about the ride. Shame he didn't have thick soles on his shoes lol.
I'm on GP placement tomorrow 8.00 start in Sheffield. Bugger!

Bless jack LOL
Just been looking at your pics again to see your cake, i was thinking of some rose petals sprinkled over cakes and on edge of baords
Did you go to clumber park? is there anything there?
We took kids to gulivers kingdom sat .. not sure if i told you or not, memorys rubbish lol, tyler was 1/2 cm too small to go on the big rollercoaster so hes eating loads so he can grow bless him
i booked a hol today to hastings to one of the haven sites, thought its a good base as its pretty central so we can go on days out to brighton, london and legoland!
Hows things your end? xxx

bump before i go and dunk Jack in the bath.He's covered in chocolate cake lol
14/6/08 20:19
I'm hopefully going for a barbeque tomorrow for fathers day in Clumber park. That's if it doesn't throw it down.
Rowan doesn't know but we've got him guitar hero for the wii for fathers day, he's been wanting it for ages so got it while it was on offer in tescos. He's been working so hard lately.
Sounds like things are nearly sorted for your wedding then, the dress shop really are leaving it late aren't they. I had a peek at the pictures of the dress you've chosen. It's beautiful, I love simple wedding dresses. I really couldn't picture you in a meringue lol.
14/6/08 20:04
Im sure she will be very happy with her present .. you got a bargin there didnt you!!
Glad Jackslept better last night , i didnt get much sleep again, brayden was up a cople of times but when he wasnt actually out of bed he was tóssing and turning so banging the side of his bed whcih kept me awake then i just couldnt get back to sleep for ages, needless to say im shatterd again
Took boys to gulivers kingdom today, we was going to go up heights of abreham but we went up the gulivers road and stayed there instead, kids enjoyed it although they wouldnt let tyler on the big rollercoaster as he was 1/2 cm too small!!! weathers been ok too then when we got back i got rid of one of my wardrobes so had to have a total rethink for the bedroom, of course once i started it and my bed was full of most of the contents of my bedroom i wished hadnt lol but its getting there now, really just need to sort out contents of rest of wardrobes
Hope Jack sleeps aswel for you tonight again
Wedding things are just about sorted, paul needs to order his suit still and im waiting for my 2nd dress fitting, think i;l ring them monday as they think my wedding is the 4th july making it a week befroe mine really is so they really are leaving it a bit late dont you think?! need to srty my cake too, find some flowers or something to put on it, infact think i'l have another look at yours as cant remember now what you had on yours, boys suits need altering a little so should get MIL onto that but i keep forgetting ..... think thats about it other than saving to pay for what we need on the day
What you up to tomorrow? xxx
14/6/08 19:28
Had a good night last night, Jack woke up once and then slept through till 7.
How was Brayden last night?
Went to Mansfield today to pick something for Sarah's birthday. I got her a silver earrings, bracelet and necklace set from H. Samuels. It was reduced from £60 down to £30 and we got her some hoops that were half price as well. We are skint at the mo so hopefully she'll be pleased with them.
How are the wedding plans going?

He has a two hour nap from 12-2 every day because he's a ratty little sod if he doesn't lol.
I think part of the problem is that he's not eating enough in the day, meal times are a total battle. He just won't eat and obviously his childminder won't force him so I actually think some of the time he's waking up hungry.
I think i'll be on the red bull next week, GP hours are long as evening clinic doesn't finish till 7.30 and morning surgery starts at 8.
Honestly Heather, Rowan doesn't even hear him! and as you say it's just easier to tend to him myself as Rowan bangs around the house walking in to things. I tried once to wake him up to see to Jack because I had a kidney infection and felt crap. He woke up and said "well what are you waking me for" and went back to sleep.
I really thought we had cracked it as he was sleeping through till 7 most mornings up to this week.
I'm sorry Brayden is still not sleeping, you must be walking round permanantly tired.
13/6/08 21:43
Awww Helena, i def know how you feel with the lack of sleep, brayden hasnt been quite as bad as that but hes been up a couple of times in night then every morning at 5.40 - 5.50 am although today it was 5.30am, best thing to do is stock up on red bull, paul has relentles and swears by it, you'l be no good trying to learn while your dropping to sleep, cant rowen help a bit in the night? if hes anythin gliek paul though its easy and quicker to do it yourself!
Is he having a daytime nap?
Brayden has day nap for about 2 hours, if he doesnt have it he seems to wake up a lot more in night, you'd think it would work the other way round but maybe it would with jack?
Dont appologise for moaning .. thats what were .. well im here for lol
Well your getting a,ot of use out of all your clothes then arn't you LOL xx
13/6/08 09:22
Jack is waking up all the time and I'm really starting to struggle with it. He woke last night at 11ish 12.30, 2ish, 2.50, 4 and then got up at 5.10. I really don't know what to do next week when I'm back at uni.
I'm starting GP placement next week which I really enjoy but it's in Sheffield so will have to be up at about 5.30 to get in on time so I really need him to sleep.
Sorry to moan but it really got to me last night.

Yep I've got to pick up the stuff that Hayden has grown out of and pass some of it onto my sis in law who is due in 6 weeks.
I meant to text her again as i've been off all week but haven't had any credit so couldn't. Had a nasty shock yesterday as our DD for gas and leccy is going up to £75 a month. That's an extra £50 I've got to find from somewhere.
Rowan is going up to Leeds tomorrow for work and won't be back till late so I'll probably spend the day at my mums.
We went down to Audley End today in East Anglia, it was really interesting took 2.5 hours to get there though so i'm shattered now.
12/6/08 19:30
Bumping us!
Saw Tara today, she said your going in a couple of weeks to see her, i said i will go too but it prob wont be the same day, i just dont find time at the mo to do anything although had a pretty quiet week this week apart from today where i have been rushed off my feet trying to do everything!
What you been up to?
11/6/08 14:04
Aww how awful getting up at that time, Brayden has a thing of getting up at 5.50amevery morning, he didnt wake me last night but has eben doing loads lately, im constantly shatterd again
Glad your coming to reception, taras coming oo of course, yes we should still see you out, you wont miss us as there will be enough of us LOL
My internet keeps playing up, im getting really peed off with it, think i need a new router but they dont come cheap! actually i mgiht r taking mine back but they prob wont have them anymore as it was from tesco
Hows Jack been the last few days?
8/6/08 06:40
Why is it that Jack just doesn't seem to need sleep. I've been up with him since 4.00. At least he's gone through now to wake Rowan up, he doesn't look amused lol.
What are you up to today?
Did you have a good night last night with Brayden?
6/6/08 20:13
I'll be coming to the reception but it's my sisters 21st on the 18th, we were supposed to be going out this weekend but her boyfriend can't get time off from his job. So it's got to be the night of your hen night unfortunely as it's the only night they can both get off. Family meal and then out down Chesterfield so I may still get to see you.
Rowan's been ill all week so I'm bored out of my brains. I've not been sleeping very well either as Jack has a cold and Rowan has a cold so they both snore. I'm a light sleeper so it hasn't been easy for me.
Trying to think of something to get Sarah for her 21st, we bought her a gold locket for her 18th and mum is giving her a gold bracelet that was her 21st present so kind of stumped.
I've been off for 5 weeks learning sign language at home, I go back the week after next for 8 weeks of GP in Sheffield.
Just usual car boots this weekend and then dinner at Rowan's parents on Sunday. It's a free meal at least lol.
6/6/08 19:04
It was great, weather was lovely, it rained one day but only in morning so had stopped when we went out, we spent a bit more money than we should have but dont you normally on hol!
Are you up to much this weekend? pauls going to a rally at chatsworth tomorrow so its just me and the boys all day
Hows work been?
Are you giving my hen a miss? will you be coming to reception stil? xx





















Not done much this weekend. My aunt and uncle came up from Shropshire so we all went out for a meal to celebrate Sarah's 21st.
I can't remember whether I told you or not but the head gasket has gone on my car, it's not worth fixing. So I've got to come up with the money for a new car, it all seems to come at once.
Next weekend I've got my father in laws birthday party and Sarah's 21st p*ss up on friday. With no money!
Rowan's sister has recently got engaged and they are having a party on 5th July which they want us to go to but it's in London. It's going to be so expensive to drive down, and find somewhere to stay. I really don't think we can afford it but Rowan feels guilty if we don't go.
GP is going well so far. I've only been in practice two days and lectures for two days but the commute is a bit of a nightmare. I have to be in for 8 so set off a 6.45 and with my car overheating and stalling it's not a very nice drive.
How did your dress fitting go?
Did your work friends make you play games? I never actually had a hen night because there wasn't time to sort one out and I was 18 weeks pregnant. I'm glad in a way because I don't do games either lol.
Jack's sleeping really well at the minute, he didn't wake up till 7 this morning, shame I had to be up at 6.30 for the car boot. How's Brayden doing?
Random post with no structure which is because I'm tired. Sorry.
