yes im having a good day lol you read right hehe it all feels real now come june ill be a mummy to 2 boys and i cant wait lill bailey been kickin mummy all day i think he just as excited in there hearing us planning his arrival...hahaha

had a little shop last night online but ended up on phone most of the night luckily for his dad he was asleep when we rang his step mum answered last time we told his dad he was having a grand son drinks went on the house which is good unless you own the pub lol, had alot of shocked reactions everyone thought id be having a girl, but were not and its great matching outfits lol and as they say daddys girl mummys boy rings very true in our family.

his mum was the only one to have a huff about the name stupid woman at first it made me laugh because she thinks she has some major part in the desision? but when she went as far as to say i dont like it i think you sould call him jack it was just dam rude and for once it annoyed bobby more than me, i thought it was a joke JACK DUCKWORTH?

Any way its not her buisness she doesnt get a say so .

Now i need to go and sort through all macs clothes decide what to keep whats going and how much we need to buy, ok having anouther boy yea i might be able to re-use alot but there 3 mnth between birthdays which means seasons  change...arghhh never just sorted is it...lol

What a day bobby went to work this morning but came home to take me the hossy boy was it busy and the lady that did the scan was training a newbie too so it really took forever I wouldnt have minded but I couldnt se a dam thing lol

Anyway im 20wks+6 today so fortget that ticker thing its way off although it knows my due date arghhh

And yes we found out the sex.....it's a BOY!!!!!!!

So obviously its all his fault lol, nooo hehe im happy babys doing really well they have no concerns at all but straight away we both said bugger name? and have completely changed our minds were thinking Bailey Nicholas now......

With the hossy been so busy we were there hours and I didn't get to go shopping but I THINK SOME ONLINE RETAIL THEROPY ....hehe although i havent a clue what we need, all that sitting around sure is exhausting too so im off to shop and an early night I think ....

Have a great day everyone mwah Jo xxx

Ok so as I said in question and answer this isnt a topic about my relationship but obviously having a son and being pregnant we have problems like most from time to time, I love watching "Loose women" the topics are very much real life and you get honest opinions from a panel of women!

They discussed "sould a couple stay together for the sake of there children?"

And my gut reaction is NO

But they seemed to favour YES but that opinion did come along with you must still be able to get along communicate enjoy spending time as a family unit even if you were not in love with your partner.

That bit I understand as time goes by we all lose the butterflys although mine pop bk from time to time after 6 yrs hehe I still could'nt imagine playing house and not loving my boyfreind, it's not so much a case of being in love but there has to be affection there doesnt there?

I could'nt just sleep in the same bed have meal's together take family outing's when it's not in your heart....

Anyway as I was saying my gut said no which I stick by but its all made me have a good think my 1st noo reaction was based on the theory that all unhappy couple's argue 24/7, dont have a family life, more like living under same roof taking turn's who's having the kid's this weekend?

So whats your gut feeling? did you change your mind after getting the full story?

HUGS JO XX

With scan on thursday im trying desperatly to keep busy anything to mk time pass faster plzzzz, so obviously i attacked the house work first then relised i could have gone playgroup today but my memorys crap lately i thought tuesdays playgroup was 9-11 but nooooo thats fridays todays was 1-3pm by the time i relised it was 230 and i was just putting mac down for his nap and now im bored!!!!!!!!

Were is everyone? tryed ringing dawn she's out hum prob at playgroup, this memory loss is buggin me grrr yesturday i forgot all my words and im only half way there =[

Tonight were off to see aunt nicky again she needs bobby to tk her driving getting ready for her test again only thing is by time he dont that ill be ready to nod off, did anyone else find fresh air made them really tired during pregnancy i feel like ive gained 20 yrs, im ready for an afternoon nap lol

Fat chance tho i spent macs nap time mopping as potty training didnt get of to the best start this morning he got bored and i knew he was almost ready to wee wee lol when he decided lets stand at side of it, poor lill man wasnt too keen this morning as i insisted on getting him up an hr early he just been so lazy since xmas and then he was ill so sleep was the best thing for him but what child can sleep till dinner?......oh what am i saying, a few mnth time and ill be climbing the walls for a lie in hehe

Oh and guess what I have to share hehe chatting to teshia on msn last night (toosh) and shes hoping to come see me and stay with me in september yayayyyyyyyyyy!!!! if she can manage it it sld work out really well as bobby tks his holidays with his birthday on 8th and macs on 2nd plus bub will  be here who knows i might be out of my sleep deprived coma too...haha sure!!!!

Of course there has to be one condition lol she will have to start drinking lol have you seen burnley? were not exactly packed full of sites to see, well not the kind you wanna see lol just meeeee hehe

Right better go but took a pic of my bump again thought you might get a feeling is Lexi Nicole on the way or Jayden Maison?

finnally gt half a day of bobby its a miracle!!!!

so i dragged him in t town time to spoil his lill man, mummy went a little banana's lol i think im gonna hve the most fun.

i cant believe we did all the xmas shopping thinking ahh mac's not ready for that yet were only in january and he's changed so much plus mummy growing day by day play times getting uncomfy now so we thought it might be an idea to get him a table and chairs as with the question of anouther c section lingering getting down cld be hard.

so tbl n chairs to be ordered nxt week when i know what couler cot bedding ive to order and his easel got all hs pots paints chalks n that, bobby drew the line at all the lill craft bits ok maybe they were for mummy hehe im just so excited i loved doing arts and craft when i worked in nursery its amazing how much fun you have and kids really start to open up usuing there imagination.

havent had time to see my sis this wek so thats a fun phone call on the way still bobbys gt to tk her out driving as much as he can nxt wk ready for test no3, how ever the mil visit was unavoidable grrrrr although when we got the usual he all like his daddy bobby gt peed and gt out my kiddy photos to prove actually he alot like me too emmmm how odd being his mother and all.

had mum n dad here this morning trying to hint us emigrating went quiet well but recently 3 of bobby mates have moved abroad so he can tell were getting twitchy hehe although he said something that gt me curious...he seems to think aussies dont like the british not the impression ive gt at all, and he thinks newzealand might be a better option....and i only ment it to be a holiay suggestion but he gt a bit pushy about it but then i am daddy girl and the youngest, i just cant see any justification for his views, what ever we did to you in the past is hardly my fault right?

oh well bettter go you know wjhat im like once i start wittering lol have a great week everyone ill try to keep my scan excitement under control....but nah bugger that lol

hugs jo xxx

yesturday had me all in tizz, strange becase it doesnt scare me i just had never thought this ghost spirit or what ever was lisening all the time, bobby checked the oven when he got home and it had been set to go off again, he insisted id done it, knocked it or something ...oh yea does it look like i made your tea? aswell as the fact he knows i cant use that stupid timmer i always get it wrong.

anyway after the oven went off....(I CANT BELIEVE IM GOING TO ADMITT THIS) I talked to the ghost basically told it to pack it in and if it had any idea's after lisening to our converstaion i would'nt appretiate being hit rd the head either lol nothing's happend since which if it was my imagination you'd think it would right? that's what they say your making something out of nothing etc

still cant find a blog to indicate when the txt thing happened last but teshia seems to think it was the same day as my scan and this scan will be later than it sould be so maybe julies right it is trying to tell me everythings ok before the scan and as i txt teshia soon as i know its trying to txt her too....

been trying to research when the house was first lived in i know the land was bought in 1864 but we dont think it was built on for 20 years why.....started but nt finnished?.....never started and land re sold? there seems to be nothing before 2002 odd huh then i find our st had a name change so unless something serious happend its nt been liseted plus there a st with same name in northhampton grrr getting in my way lol

oh well sld be intresting ? although if im right and i find something on a little girl were moving fast i think that might be too much information..............arghhhhhhh

ok stay with me here thi will be confussing!!!!

ive just been searching my blogs to see when my mobile played tricks on me trying to txt teshia aka toosh "nothing to declare" it happend some time ago but freeked me out my mobile was telling me this message had failed to send yet id been out and had forgotten my phone either way why would i be sending that it mks no sence what so ever...

anyway nothing has really happend since but he came home and tells me he might be going into work early as they have a show to prepare for and his mates girlfreind doesnt want her bf to go as they have a ghost...emm

i do actually believ in  ghosts as i think we have one too it used to play with mac as a baby and it doesnt really nbother me but we got talking about it and i said why doesnt she talk to it? bobby looking freeked says why? but if you were a ghost you have no physical form no way of comunicating yet its believed they are aware of us like we are of them i just think some times they arent there to upset yu maybe they just returned to a place they were happy?

you still with me????

i promise im not mad well not that much lol but i do believe although i dont believe they can harm you and i find it quiet nice what ever it is a ghost a spirit? mac seems to like it and i think its a lill girl from victorian times.

anyhow when that happend with my phone it was on top of the computer desk beween rooms and last night before bed i get my phone from same place.... and a service message 2 txts have failed to be sent to teshia.....

it saves failed txts to drafts auto both txts yep 2 this time saying nothing to declare......?

so i spent an hr looking at past messages weather it was a saved mess on my phone nope just the 2 saved due to failing...

so why ? whats going on and why is it always trying to send this message to teshia? why 2 this time?

im going through my past blogs to see when this happend last time im thinking it was before my last scan when we thought it cld be twins but the scans said no then anouther scan when i fell said no aswell...ahhhh weird huh?

EDITED

Ok getting weirder odd things dont really happen just seems like macs looking at some thing and is amused but now this has been on my mind all day the ovens bleeped twice something his mates ghost does apparently i think its lisening in and getting ideas...? lol but still true and yes i cheacked oven is nt pre set and mac cant get in kitchen....

Whats going on????

finally got chance to get on for 10min been hectic here recently as you'll probably have heard property prices are plumitting here and thats only half the problem no ones buying any way so for the time being were stuck in a rutt we need the profit of the house to move to aus eventually its just when things will pick up again last time this happend in the uk it took almost 10 years which throws our 3 yr plan throught the window ....great huh.....

other than that me n bub are doing fine scan nxt week so im keeping busy sorting the house out just to try and mk time pass a little faster...lol bobbys still convinced its twins even tho 2 scans say nope! now the diys calmed down here he seems to be spending most of his time winding me up he reackons ill be waddling soon grrrrrr.

and inbetween all that we managed a few rows lol mainly because im fed up we all work going on its hard enough with me being the only one in the house with a concept of what cleaning means he thinks im super woman ha guess he would be a super hero lol, still we come to an agreement who ever cooks other washes up quick tidy up at night so im not running rd moving cups n things before mac gets there simple stuff really but you kinda loose all that when you've been living in a building site for most of the past 2 years and now were planning the next major job then finally our bedroom needs re doing damp! arghhh does it ever end and some were along with all that he wants a new car a holiday oh yeah and ive to give birth again...things must be so simple in a mans world...lol

right i think thats about it hard work trying to remember whats happend but i just dont have time to get on like before, still ill try to get on and catch up with you all soon, hopefully with news or what sex bubba is...........?

hugs to all xox

oh hello just wondering if some one was there...?

 whys it soooo quiet...?

r u hiding....?

COME OUT I DONT BITE YA KNOW....much lol

yes this is getting serious now reaaallllllyyyyyyyyyy bored!!!!!!!!

doubla dee doublah da..............................................life goes on..............................................................

Finally after months of thinking about we have decided our dog would be better off re-homed but I feel so crule she's a great dog I could'nt ask for a better temprement, house trained but she'd huge and malts alot, she requires little exercize in form of walks her breed demands shes mainly walked on soft ground huh not easy in a built up area and bobby just doesnt have the time before and after work driving her across town.

So she shall go (I think) she's been a brilliant dog and Mac loves her to bits, she's driven me mad at times as she never quiet lost that playfull pup bouncing around thing, but she's too big too much work for us and would be better suited with someone who could give her a better life.

My only fear is the calls from the idiots wanting her because of her breed shes not a fashion ass for some yob to look clever.

We have decided that we are dog ppl tho and Mac's definatly a dog baby so were on the look out for something smaller that he can play with without being hurt although her tempraments great her weight and her bouncing around doesnt play well on my nerves.

Its so hard were re-homing her for all the right reasons after 5 years its going to be strange without her about the place, tonight she been advertsed on-line and she giving me those puppy dog eyes that make you melt, macs been playing with her tonight well sitting on her head actually lol, makes me think we sould try harder but weve been putting this off for months we just cant fit her needs in and its only going to get worst with anouther baby on the way.

see arnt they adorable??????

Today I went to see my midwife we hoped we would here the heart beat too but not today it wasnt my usual midwife clair they been faffing with the system again grr, but she was nice took my bloods but i dont think she really tried hard enough to get the heart beat she tryed 2 spots it cld have been up down inbetween but anyway we think we got it we home dopler and im getting kicks and movement so were not worried.

I always thought I was changin weeks on a wednesday looks like i was wrong my exact dates get me to 17weeks and 2 days i must have been going with the tickers dates...?

Other than that we tryed to do some shopping for mac and I was so close to getting my way with his new boots and trainers then guess what they didnt have his size in either...oh well he getting some diff trainers my nephew will pick up we his staff discount and im working on some more timberlands hehe there just so cute!!!

Dad came up this morning to let us know that he was at hossy we mum at 3am, we knew this would happen she just had no reguard for her diabetis all xmas, I know she wants to enjoy herself but come on forgetting your meds and stuffing chocolate etc in is asking for trouble. Looking back I cant rem a xmas my mum wasnt admitted seriously she my mum yes I love her ad respect her but she worked her way through the medical dictionary what else can she have? I  think were just getting to the point were we take it all with a pinch of salt, she has been ill but not 24/7 for the past 15years, we thought she was lonely but she doesnt wanna go out she cant shes very heavy suffers from ashma diabetis and arthritous plus she works 3 jobs inbetween she eats and sleeps litrally I just dont know what we can do she 55now since she hit 40 its been downhill all the way...................................

We stayed home thinking all the naighboures will be out so it sld be nice and peaceful, ha was I wrong the fireworks went on all night Mac wldnt settle, the naighboures decided to bring there new year on to the front st at 11pm till 3am nice huh we had teens fights the other naighboures complaining every 2 min, all they asked was it was kept down or taken inside so we cld have some piece but nope!

Mac's been knocked out of his routine, I've had a pj day to recover as I gotta go baby clinic tomorrow thats going to be fun we a grumpy child.

I hoped to start the new year as a happy one but after discovering the beam had been left unrepaired all this time putting my family in serious danger seeing them at the naighboures house without a care in the world made me so mad. It just went to show they really are inconciderate ppl in this world and the sooner were outta here the better, but it aint gonna happen moaning is it ? we been working on the house 2 years 1 final push ......

But either way 2008 is here and tomorrow I  sld be lisening to my babys heart beat for the first time so I guess my happy new years starting on the 2nd jan, cld be worst!!!!

Wishing you all a great 2008 how ever your new years eve went, it doesnt really matter its what you do we 2008 that matter....

Hugs all xox
