Went round S&G’s to look after all the kids while Alex & G played posties together.
Kids were amazingly wonderful today. Smalls playing dress-up and Big’s were ’sharing’ :shock: the PS2 and taking turns!!!
Gave them all a snack - no arguments!
I got bored with all the kids keeping themselves occupied so I cleaned!!! (well I am pregnant afer all!)
Alex & G got soaked (ha ha!) and wibbled on about ebay some more. Left for Cosham to post some bits and pick up some bits for E (Our Niece) - Happy 18th Birthday! Went round B&D’s to celebrate E’s Birthday (which was on Tuesday) with a BBQ and being British the weather wasn’t going to spoil it so tarpaulin & gazebos a plenty to keep us in the shelter.
The kids had a nice time playing with their cousins (who we don’t see often enough!), we talked, ate, told B&D I’m pregnant (they seemed pleased so it’s just my Mum & Dad to tell when I see them) and came away with 2 baby gates for bubba.
D had the idea of putting Natalie in loft when baby arrives - there’s going to have to be a major shift around, the baby can have Hemionie’s room ‘cos it’s the smallest, Hermionie can have Natalie’s room with an optional re-paint if she wants, I think Alex & I will stay where we are, but it would be nice to have a re-decorate or shifting of furniture, which leaves Natalie to go in the loft (don’t worry, it’s converted - we’re not stashing her up in a dark dingy loft, balancing on beams and breathing in fibreglass). Natalie, being the eldest is going to need a bit more privacy and I don’t have to worry about her on the steeper stairs. I had wanted to sleep in the loft again, but I’d worry about being ‘above’ the kids and about Hermionie on the stairs in the middle of the night if she needed us.
Gave E money for driving lessons as her Birthday Pressie - wish I could have given her more!
B got the Wii out with Wario-Moves and despite discussing with Natalie that we would leave at 6 - she whinged. Got home and watched the last Doctor Who - So sad it’s over till Christmas - loved the bit about Captain Jack being the Face of Boe though! - glad to see that after Martha saved the world - they didn’t just jump in the TARDIS and off to the next adventure - I’m sure we’ll all see enough of her next season though! Alex, Natalie & Hermionie wathed Doctor Who Confidential while I Fell asleep - I’m getting really good at this sleeping malarcky now- except at night !!!!
