Subject : Stupidly fretting Frown

Tonight is our 'date' and the kids are going to MILs house for the night.

I got my hair done yesterday and it looks lovely, and i found a dress in tescos after the palaver with the next dress (its strapless, purple and black with a girly a line shape and a bit of netting at the bottom and a belt around the waist - it looks good)
I still dont know where were going but I have stressed the importance of this not being just another night where he ends up going paying pool and getting pissed... it has to be a proper date.... LOL!

Anyway, MIL (we are getting on better at the moment Happy ) is due to come and pick the kids up in two hours... and I'm terrified she wont be able to cope.
Ollie has turned into a jealous little monster who bites, kicks, slaps, screams and tries to strangle me if i try to feed/change Marissa so I hope he wont be like that with them (FIL isnt much use as he's 75 and falls asleep all the time... )
Marissa is having a bad day with reflux, she's brought up a lot of her feeds... and I'm right on the limit of how many I've got to send away with her... Sad for MIL to have them from 11am today till 1pm tomorrow afternoon I've got enough feeds, but any more than that and theres nothing for it but formula which completely throws her routine out of the window. I really want her to keep her feeds down as there is only one spare feed in the pack!

I dont think she'll cope, because of Ollies jealousy she wont be able to sort missy out properly, and because I'm currently having to 'starve' Ollie (if he wont eat what hes given he gets nothing else type of strave before anyone reports me!) but she will ignore it and make the problem worse for when he gets back...

I know i'm prob not making much sense, and worrying unnecessarily, but its the first time I've let anyone have Marissa for more than a couple of hours..... Surprised and it wipes out my stock of milk! (I thought i had more than i do) I can replace some of it but I wont be able to put all of it into the freezer (some will have alcohol in it... Wink ) so i'm going to have to express like a loony again for a couple of weeks to replenish the stock....

and then theres the fact that she (MJ) isnt keen on bottles and she fusses with them before finally taking the feed, then there's the gaviscon MIL will have to sort out and she might get it wrong....


think I'm just gonna go write a short list of instructions.. two sides of A4 should do... LOL!

Someone shake me and tell me to stop worrying please! Happy LOL!

Dress sounds lovely, really hope you have a lovely time, think it is a great idea for you to go out together.

Regards the kids, i always find that mil's manage and than they behave better when im not there (i meant the kids but mil as well lol). also regards Ollie i think that he will realise that granny is a pushover and mummy is not so hopefully wont affect your starvation attempt. (sorry that sounds awful but you know what i mean, i have to go through phases of doing the same with my boys)

any way sorry its all a bit random, im blaming the heat and pg brain.

Have a really really good time

pending on how much I drink I think some of it will have to be thrown away - i havent really got any left to mix it with at the moment (although will have by the end of the day... hmmm, thats an idea! Thanks DB)

well, here is the dress..... with and without straps - you'll have to forgive the face and hair - OH was trying to make me laugh and I havent straightened my hair yet so its not exactly as it will be, plus I'll have 2 inch heels on as well to make me look taller.... Happy (and please ignore the strap marks! LOL! )

hopefully they work...
