Gemini, how exciting, I hope the birth continues naturally for her and not too long. Come on baby, we are all waiting!

[Nanto2girls]

oh Gem, i hope things progress quickly.

Hello everyone. I'm too late to say 'good morning'! It's a lot cooler here (no rain) and we took Eva to the paddock first thing. She really needed a good run.

Gem - soooooo exciting, at long last! Hopefully there will be the least intervention possible and everything will progress naturally. I remember being told once your water break they like to see things get going, so I hope by now DD3 is having regular contractions. All us grannies are waiting and wishing her and baby well. xxx

Can't hear ourselves think here - OpenReach are drilling for oil! Well that's what it sounds like, it's just a shallow trench to put the fibre optic cable in, but it's a toss up whether we are deafened with the windows open or roasted with them closed!

Back later.

My hair has gone from Red to Black 😁

[Nanto2girls]

Just checking in to see if there is any news from Gem.

Oma,hair looks nice,are you happy with it?

[Daisy]

Nanto - same here!

Oma - that looks really nice. I hope you like it too. x

Oma, your hair suits you!xx

[Gemini]

Nice hair Oma

Nothing much to report on the baby ladies. Thanks for asking and thank you for the announcement Daisy!
I heard from DD not long ago. They are in a side room on the antenatal ward. She is still having contractions but she feels it's still early stages. They had given her the prostaglandin gel an hour or so before.
She was bouncing on ball and was going to go for a walk round with SIL.

Gem all going in right direction and she's doing it herself that's a good thing , hope it's not a long labour xxx

Yes like the colour a bit darker than I thought but I like it .
GS just been he wanted to borrow a spring release cake tin , his girlfriend has been away and comes back today he's making her a special cheese cake , isn't young love sweet

[Nanto2girls]

Oma, young love is beautifu.

Was hoping there might be some baby news.

Our nephews new baby and his wife have got covid,

[Oma]

Nanto
poor things ,
Finley has had it too , they came out of Hospital with it after he recovered from Meningitis
If it’s any consolation babies seem to recover quickly so M&C were told , it’s them that had it worse xx

[Daisy]

Gem, it sounds as though things are progressing, as Oma said. It must seem like a very long day for you. xxx

Nanto - poor little baby and mummy getting Covid so soon. I do hope they're ok.

Oma - I was amazed how quickly Finley bounced back from both Meningitis and Covid.

We're forecast rain for tomorrow according to my weather app, so I've just cut the lawn and swept the patio. OH is out at his wood turning club tonight. I did a mushroom and tomato omelette and salad for a quick dinner - we're not used to eating so early this warm weather and neither of us was very hungry.

[Gemini]

No baby news here.

I'm sorry about the family having Covid Nan2. I hope none of them are too poorly.

[Daisy]

Gem - There will be. Although you may have a sleepless night listening out for the phone. xxx

[Nanto2girls]

Cool and dark this morning.

No baby news yet from Gem.

We had visitors yesterday.Hubby's brother and wife. She's friends with me now.
Says she's glad they didn't go,after hearing the baby and mum have covid.
I must ring sister in law later and ask how the new baby is.

Yesterday we pulled some more rhubarb from the garden,so going to make some pies and crumbles for the freezer.

I'll check in later to see if there is any update from Gem.
