I'm being all pro-active again!!! Went to the nursery this morning and spent 30 mins having a neb round, harry spent the whole time playing and he loved it so he is starting there on the 1st september for 4 mornings a week, i am filling in the registration form as we speak ( i'm a smart arse me i can do 2 fings at once, not really just doing things as i remember otherwise i will forget), dropping the form off on Wednesday morning with his deposit, and we are all good to go, have rung St Joe's and cancelled his nursery place, and feel much happier and less stressed already, watch this the little bugger will potty train in the next few days and be completely dry both ways!!! even so I think the nursery will be better for him as i dont think he will sit through masses or assemblies, so this will just be somewhere for him to go play and have fun.
ooo ooo oooo beds are coming tomorrow!!! 4 weeks till the big move round!!! and 9 weeks till he starts nursery eeep!!!! 11-12 weeks till missus arrives, i need more time!!!!!!!!! *faints*

Wheels are in motion
Bathroom painted - check
Beds ordered - check
Birth plan written - check
Blackout blinds up - check
Cupboard under the stairs tidied - check
the really big tidy up? ah well yes, thats still in its planning stages, Abbies room is tidy (ish), Harry's doesnt really need a lot doing to it, so once the big move happens then i can really crack on, with it. I try to keep on top of the kitchen but I swear the crap in there breeds!
Its my birthday soon, and hopefully going out for a meal, to the Fortune Star, not sure what i'm going to have for starters, but i'm having the sizzling beef cantonese style and boiled rice for the main course and I dont think i will have room for a pudding, I'm back at the GD clinic before then so will have a word with Paul about how much insulin to have, i'm reckoning about 25 units.
12-13 weeks before bubbie arrives, and i'm getting quite excited about it now, can wait to meet her and see what and who she looks like, and more importantly, does she look like a Phoebe, as i have totally fallen in love with that name and i cant think of what else we could call her. I try really hard to stop myself thinking of her as a Phoebe, but I cant help it, watch this she will end up as something totally different come delivery day!

updates and rude people on buses
25+3 - Bubbie is VERY active, does this girl ever sleep?? nope I think she is taking lessons from Harry, she is growing well, not to sure how well to be honest, wasnt measured or anything at my last appointment, so roll on 9-jul-08 for a growth scan and appointment, I am also going to request the 19th Sept as an induction date ( will be 38+6 then) and its a friday so it gives me the weekend to sprog and get my head round things before the school run on the monday.
Potty training - no further forward really, put him in pull ups he will wee in them, put him in undies, if the potty is in sight he takes them off and wees in the potty, no potty in sight he wees in the undies, not really confident enough to try a trail run anywhere with undies on as he is not telling us he wants to go, and like I just typed, if there is no visual prompt of a potty he just wees where he stands. On the whole i think its starting to click into place, but I have finally got my head round that its his schedule we are on not, mine or starting school or his daddies either. We are seeing his nursery teacher soon, so will broach the subject with her then, and i know it would be better for him to be dry sooner rater than later but if he is not ready its not going to happen.
And finally rude people on Buses! yes you, you foul mouthed woman on the bus home this morning, talking really loudly on her mobile phone and the language, the air was f*cking blue ( did you see what i did there?) F this and F that, bear in mind that the bus was full of old biddies and people with under 4 year olds, no bloody decorum or consideration, now dont get me wrong, i enjoy a good swear as much as the next person ( this depends of course if the next person is Ozzy, then maybe not that much!!!) but there is a time and a place for the more fruity aspects of the queens english and on a packed bus is not one of them!

Blah, Blah, Blah
okay stop the world, I want to get off - I just need a minute or 20 to catch my breath, Im shattered and i cant think straight.
everything is milling round in my head and i cant get any peace, Potty training is a major source of angst and pressure at the moment, so far this morning Harry has pissed on the couch at around 7ish this morning, he was then dry till we come back off the school run, asked him if he needed a wee NO! put him on the potty anyway huge wee follows. two further wees on the potty Then he had a wee while i was crying down the phone to my mum, he toddled off into the kitchen, stopped ran back to his potty stopped and had a wee!!! YAY!!!!! he was trying to hi-5 my mum down the phone which was sweet.
Since then he has parked his arse on the potty, wandered off, stood over the potty and peed on the floor, then started screaming when i asked him to sit down or if he wants to try standing up then go to the toilet, peed in the potty and then put his cars in it ( never even said that he had done anything he usually does) and then just sat there next to the potty and weed on the floor, its getting to the point where im getting ratty with him, and shouting which is no good for me or him, ithink i am gonna give up for the day and put him in pull ups till tomorrow, i have cried enough today ( including in the school yard this morning) and im worn out with it
Mum thinks i'm getting depressed again and wants me to go to the drs, they wont do anything so there is no point, Im tired, still not fully over the sinus infection, and just feeling very pressured to get harry potty trained as I know i havent got the luxury of time and other people arent helping with that and are making me feel more pressured as they keep on pointing out that we havent got time and its not going to happen like we need it too, Harry isnt gonna twig over night, its not fecking humanly possible to force a child to be toilet trained if they are not ready for it.
He is on the potty now watching Mickey Mouse clubhouse, and after that he is back in pull ups and will stay that way for the rest of the day, as im just getting more and more wound up and thats not good for baby boo on board, if i'm in the house he can run round in the nudey, if i need to crack on with jobs upstairs then he goes in a pull up, if we are out and about he is in a pull up, and if anyone has any objections to that - they can go forth and fornicate!
