I've Finished!!!

What a gorgeous Saturday morning.....the sun is out, although still a bit cold, and I don't have to do any crafting today cause I finished the book at 11.10 pm last night!!! What a relief! It's my Brother's 50th birthday next year so I was thinking, perhaps I'd better start a book for him now lol!! Anyway, here are the rest of the pages I did yesterday........you WILL look at them!!!! Despite having to rush, I enjoyed these pages the most 'cause there was alot of babies in them....see if you can spot my two. I love the photo of Lewis and use it alot in my scrapbooks which he is not impressed with at all, bearing in mind he is naked in the bath and he is now ten years old.....must be embarrassing for him!!


Now we're off into town to my Sister's to deliver the present....she'd better like it or she won't make 51!!! Planning a nice relaxing day today so hope to get back to normal and catch up with my blogging. Enjoy your weekend.

My Surprise For Tony!!

As promised, I'm back to let you in on my surprise for Tony tomorrow! Don't know where to start with this but maybe a little personal history first. When I married Tony in 1996 I was a UK size 14. I've always had to watch my weight and never been naturally thin but was never vastly overweight either. In March 1997 I fell pregnant with Lewis and that's when the trouble started.....the weight piled on and after he was born as well because I wasn't eating properly and just grabbing food out of the fridge when I had a spare five minutes.....oh, the joys of being a new Mum! Then I got pregnant again with Sam and even though I didn't gain much more weight during pregnancy, I made up for it afterwards! Am I boring you yet! It took me ten years and many failed diets to finally get serious about losing weight so I started my diet in January this year and this is the evidence....... please do not show the first photo to small children or animals as it may scare them !!!!!...
