Wow, two new babies, and dramatic birth for one

I don't want the knee replaced. Recovery is so long and hard, and there is too much going on all around me for me to need any care! If needs be I will ask for a steroid injection, but mostly it only niggles me, and I hope this flare up will settle down.

Good Saturday morning, everyone.

Lizzie, I hope you feel better as the day wears on. I'm sure GD2 will love all the things organised for her stay in Yorkshire. It's good timing, arriving for the joint 18th birthday parties.

Nanto, yes it's noticeably darker in the mornings and evenings already. I hope your DS2 was able to join you in town for a cuppa. Is the rain forecast for you? It's good to know your GD is making good progress. It's very hard when you're a new Mum remembering that you've also had a major operation and need to look after yourself as well.

Gem, I hope the weather stays dry for Little E's birthday party. I'm sure your DD3 must be frustrated having to rest instead of getting ready for the party, but it's important for her to follow doctor's orders. I hope she will be able to join in a bit this afternoon though. I bet the teddies will enjoy their picnic party.

Don't do anything to make your poor knee more painful. I can fully understand you not wanting to have surgery on it with so much else happening in the family, but please take care of yourself.

Oma, how amazing that both babies were born on the same day, but in such different circumstances. Will they be able to play together when they're older, or do they live too far from each other?

The saga of our caravan fridge continues! We may end up getting a new one after all. We just want to get it sorted out but would be happy to have one that only works on mains or battery. We never use it on gas. OH is shampooing the sofa and fabric armchair in the living room. One of those jobs we've been putting off. I'm catching up on all sorts of washing in case the weather does break tomorrow. The washing line is full at the moment!

The babies are from different sides of the family so won't know each other sadly.

I have had all my bedding on the line and although it threatened to rain it hasn't and it's been quite blowy so they dried lovely .

Congratulations Oma, for the new babies.

DS2 couldn't meet up for a cuppa,he had other plans.

It was quite windy in town, i called it a rain wind,if you know what i mean.
Rain is forecast for our area,but not had any yet.

Gem, hope you all enjoy the teddy bears picnic.

Daisy, hope you get a caravan fridge sorted soon.
