No Change!

Even though the sun is out today (still cold with a heavy frost last night!), things are not so sunny inside! The boys are still not well and just to top it all, I woke up with a splitting headache...just hoping I haven't caught it as well because that's how Sam's bug started!

Two things to share with you today and one of them is this photo I took last night - I left the boys downstairs watching TV while I went to get their rooms ready for bed and feed the guinea pigs and at one point I thought "they're extremely quiet", so downstairs I go, only to find this......




Oh, bless them! See, I knew they loved each other really!! Sam was fast asleep and dribbling everywhere but Lewis didn't seem to mind!


The second thing I have to show is a card I made recently for my Dad to give to one of his friend's little girls. I had this image already coloured so just picked out the papers and put it together - it was only when I was photographing it that I thought I'd seen it before! After looking through my files on the computer, realised that I had done one almost the same only a few weeks back! Anyway, here is the more up-to-date one.



The image is called Kaitlin and is from Whipper Snapper and was coloured with Promarkers. DP was from Dawn, cardstock is Bazzill, sentiment is Penny Black and crochet flower and brad are from my stash.

Off to make breakfast for the boys now....treating them to hot chocolate as their throats are so sore, they don't want anything to eat. I know it's not healthy but what the heck!! Have a good day!

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 !!!!!...
