Rainbow Diapers

I was rummaging under the bed wear I store diapers and such...and found a bunch of Mollis diapers, which seem to be same as Masterpiece daytime.  They barely hold 1.5 wettings.  Hopefully, they get me to 9 a.m.  Almost put in a booster, but it would definitely get me to 10, but I need to get going by 9.

Honestly this is amazing!!! Also another great chapter! I’m mow curious how ambers Christmas is going and if she might be having dreams about Paul 

In warmer weather > 60F, boxer shorts and no shirt.  Ceiling fan on!! In cooler weather, long sleeve sheet, most likely a mock turtleneck and box shorts.  Ceiling fan off!!  I have getting into a cold bed, so I have an electric blanket on for a few minutes either before (ideal) or after.  I don't wear socks, instead I pull a blanket over my feet.

Leaving car park 16.50 getting to the Beach Esplanade (bus end) at 17.00;  parking up in many of the parking spots near The bus end for The Highlander Café Bus for the last dinner of our night in question; was MORE than memorable!  As the bus is a red double deck bus; both  girls had the same (a Double Decker Smash Burger) each; 1 with Cheesy Fries 1 with plain fries (sharing between the two);  both had 2 Flavours Ice cream Sundae (Lisa was Biscoff Bliss and Strawberry Sweetheart; Suzy had Dubai Pistachio and Black Forest Express) ; over a lot of soft drinks!

A few more telling – offs from usual from the kids BUT more than likely half No Mummies, half over-excited being off School for first of many weeks!  Rose asked Daddy / Jeff about making a Welcome Home card; with this sounding good ; Daddy Jeff mentioned that they would want to make same for Lisa; and they did indeed over Crafting Table at Suzy’s home for both!

The School  Holiday Project went well; with Lisa and Suzy taking kids for a couple of occasions each; and had worked i.e. no serious injuries (Ambulance Paramedics on standby) , or lawsuits or bad PR ; so October is on (with Lisa and Suzy’s away the fortnight) ; then more as long as all them continue!   Building Works The work started on time on Monday 13th July ; no real major delays or  weather, and last of everything finished (with a few additional days) finished a couple days over on Wednesday 12th August, now giving  19 bedrooms; effectively spare 8; Dundee City fostering visited Friday 14th August and increased their license numbers accordingly The Wilson brothers continue to enjoy bunking with Avery and Byron, so that has  not changed! As well as more potentially more  playmates coming this year or next ; Kids who live in  the Annexe are LOVING enjoying the same freedom as main home kids (no waiting for  a big walk them across the road; often in a Hi-Viz with Lamp in low light or darkness also)  thanks to the third-floor the new overbridge between the two; Suzy did wonder why there was  no even a close call since December the whole thing was purchased AND good luck plus praying to whoever upstairs each kid makes it safe? BUT how long will Suzy wait for a foster call this time…given a matter of under two weeks first call first getting Annexe; given all Suzy’s experience as any sort of mother it has been an interesting 4 and a half years; she looks back in pride ; and taking every jump,  has indeed enjoyed her now family time with kids of her own (and others); she would  NOT change a thing; her Daddy Jeff indeed agreed  with her!   IVF / Pregnancies Suzy was a very different person for the three weeks her medication to shut off her ovaries for three weeks;  more mood swings; more snappy and SO easily irritable; her Mum compared  a little to before she started using the pill BUT to a greater extent; Suzy even explained to all NOT something she would ever want to try again; everything happened well and on time with Collection date and Sperm collection Tuesday 12th August. . Suzy was MORE than happy here a couple days later ; getting a telephone call from Glasgow Fertility Centre to hear the news she has more than  ten usable embryos (14 in total FOR NOW before freezing etc) that it worked VERY WELL (ED: think preparation for a colonoscopy!!!) so is now back on The Pill again now. Implantation date fluid for obvious reasons BUT the intended date is three months after  Lisa’ s due date / 27th December 2026; circa 12 weeks  after Lisa will start medications to start implantation make easier ; THIS might OR MIGHT NOT work; and may need to be retried if first time implantation does not take work correctly. Lisas’s 16 week scan did show she is expecting a Baby girl, while Caroline and Byron are looking forward to another kid ‘as she is pregnant with a second pregnancy! On Friday 14th August Suzy’s bedtime, the Money in fund  in total now continue to rise to  £253, 015!   Other School Holiday Stuff not mentioned here or in previous chapters Suzy’s’ lot were indeed witness on the morning of Saturday 25th July witnessing the father four former Smithson four Jared Smithson marrying his current parter Kim Foyle; while later the same day, both families enjoyed Byron’s birthday turning 12.

A few bits and pieces before she sat  down finishing off her own breakfast. After a Smooch with Daddy jeff;  Suzy refilled her Coffee Mug before walking through to the Study; going though papers and the like.    Last year Byron’s taxi pick up was 08.15 ; this year 08.18 ; Byron was advised BUT we will keep getting you ready for the earlier time (outside with a big from 08.10 !
