Third time lucky!
We have an interim name ...Right! Third time lucky!<br /><br />We have an interim name - Kleintje (Little'un in Dutch), it's just difficult to use it in place of gender specific pronouns all the time. I get told of by English relatives for using 'The Kid' as well :)<br /><br />We have a spread sheet (well a book), but that is more for tracking what we spend per week to see where we are wasting money - that we won't have in 6 months time!<br /><br />As for the roof, I know what you mean - we are using savings built up from not having children to do the building work. I don't think it is going to be possible for the coming years! And I'm glad of the big, safe car as well - replacing that won't happen for a while either!<br /><br />And finally thank you! We are going to do our absolute best!<br /><br />StaceStacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07907346657510908857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187164070937704663.post-12390882497263027702013-08-18T08:34:26.452+02:002013-08-18T08:34:26.452+02:00I was going more for the you're embarrassed, I...I was going more for the you're embarrassed, I'm embarrassed.

I am sending positive vibes to help it all go as smoothly as possible.<br /><br />As someone who's boy name consists of four first names (really, it does!), I know how laborious a long name can be to type out! <br /><br />Finally, I think that as long as that stuffed turtle is a prominent feature, any work you do is bound to be a smashing success! :D<br /><br />Hugs,<br />CassCassidyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10765803435751308973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187164070937704663.post-18639863821009150602013-08-17T20:34:26.662+02:002013-08-17T20:34:26.662+02:00Or rather 'Not Snap' .....:)Or rather 'Not Snap' .....:)Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14342124169953960479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4187164070937704663.post-45259377941674019172013-08-17T19:42:47.866+02:002013-08-17T19:42:47.866+02:00Damn...

Are you not taking your role seriously Stace?<br /><br />You are going to have to work on the motherliness, calling the poor mite "it"!<br /><br />Do you have a a spread sheet with forecast expenditure and cost benefit analysis up to the age of about 35 when the child should by recent accounts be free and independent? I love others taking the financial hit and me just having fun and spoiling the children but able to hand them back when they get fractious...<br /><br />We can only replace our rotten attic windows "because" we chose to never have children...<br /><br />Your child is such a lucky child, not because of the building work but because you are going to be such loving parents.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02133031265351841626noreply@blogger.com
