Well to all the UK mummies anyway. Am having a lovely day - I got two cards this morning - one from Rob, one from Oscar. Both made me cry. And a big box of Milk Tray which made me smile!
I'm having a really good weekend - even though Oz is sick - AGAIN - very high temp last night. He's not eating much but he seems happier today.
Our night off was lovely - great food - really good conversation for the first time in I don't know when. I feel really connected to Rob again which is important and wonderful. Lie in was fab - then left Rob with Oscar and Mum and I went to the NCT sale - my mother has that instrinsic talent of being able to ferret out the bargains. So I got some wonderful clothes, toys and books for Oz. And in the afternoon Mum went and collected a brilliant Bob The Builder Bike she'd won for him on Ebay - it's perfect - he's too tall for most of the ride ons you can get but this one fits him perfectly. I've lost the bloody camera - I'm looking for it - will try and post pics when I can.
Last night I babysat for my friend Liz which is always a treat - she lives round the corner from one of the best fish and chip shops I've ever found so I get a fish supper - and she runs me a deep hot bath (our bath is tiny - I can't do more than sit in it and it's really shallow so a hot bath is a treat). It's a bit wierd getting naked in your friend's house.....but soooo worth it. Her son Sam slept like an angel - didn't hear a peep from him. And I watched Wallace and Gromit Were Rabbit so that was fun.
This afternoon we'll probably go to the park on the way to Asda - simple day but I'm very happy and smiley!
Hope you're having a lovely weekend, whether you're a mother or not!

Oooh, can't wait to see the bike! We're getting Jack a Thomas the Tank Engine one for this birthday. Know what you mean about the ride ons, they can't push themselves a long once they get too big for them and Jack just ends up tipping forward because he tries too hard, or makes do with waddling around with it between his legs!
Hope you have a great Mothers Day and Oscar doesn't pinch too many of your chockies!

Ooooh I'm so pleased - especially about you and Rob!!!
Fantastic about having a deep bath too - nothing like a good old soak if you ask me!
Oh and Mother's Day for me? No card, no flowers, nothing. I did get an apology and a promise to make it up to me. I'll let you know!
Happy Mother's Day, Sal!
"It's a bit wierd getting naked in your friend's house.....but soooo worth it." is the most hilarious thing I've read in weeks!!
Aww, I hope Oscar is feeling better soon. Joe has one of the BTB Bikes (used to be Jades, donated by a friend!), with a cool tool box on the back! Babysitting sounded fab, real pampering sesh!
Happy Mothers Day to you too!

Nooooooooooooo!!!!!! Not fair! I am craving decent fish and chips soooo much (regardless of whether I am pregnant or not!)and with Wallace too???? Heaven! Oh for a decent chippie! Not really a Singaporean thing though........ funny that! God I'd babysit for your friend daily!
Can't wait to see pics of Oz on his Bob bike.

Youre such a good mate babysitting for your friend.
I LOVE long warm baths with a good book, I dont know how Id cope with an uncomfortable bath. Id prob be more antsy than ever.
Glad you had a lovely day, hope you scoff all your chocs to yourself, you deserve it!
I love this post, happiness is radiating from it. Isn't it great to feel like a woman as well as a mum when you are getting on well with DH?
Look forward to pics
