A LONG WEEK

Its been a long week. Taylor started waking lots in the night, but didn't appear unwell. Then we had a night of full sleep so thought everything was okay. Then we went back to waking me up fifty million times in the night. Then came the full blown snotty nose. On Thursday we went to WW and I lost 2lbs - YAY. I managed to get my little knitted hats off to Tibet for the poor babies that are dying of hyperthermia. Thursday lunch was get together at Collettee and jakes. We had Fajitas and the kids had a ball playing and generally making a mess. Thursday night was night out for me at the theatre. It was great. Went to see the Full Monty - it was a fab show and the acting (even tho amateur) was absolutely brilliant.

On Friday we went for a ride on the bike and then chilled out - after all Taylor's nose was running like Niagra Falls. Bless her. Still struggling with her sleep tho... she went thru to 4.ooam last night, however, refused to go back to sleep for about an hour - just kept waking every two or three minutes - drove me barmy.

Today Daddy has turned Taylor's cot into her real big bed - so tonight will be the test... she seems excited about getting into bed - so we will just have to wait and see - the novelty will be whether she keeps getting in and out. Fingers crossed.

That's me, off to Gym tomorrow in hope that I can shed a few more pounds this week - after all I've just been eating Tortilla Wraps with cheese - not so good!.

WELL KNOCK ME DOWN WITH A FEATHER

I was dreading Weight Watchers today - thought it would be step on (break!!).. but the scales survived - and so did I - I had stayed the same. I couldn't beleive it - all that chocolate eating and feasting on general all round crap is really good for you!! LOL.

More to the fact that I think going to the gym and biking everywhere has kind of made up for it. It got me down to thinking that if I had been watching my food intake, I would of probably lost about 4lbs - so I'm knuckling down, and I'm counting again - its given me real good incentive.

Jack's new double album arrived today with his new acoustic songs on, Roy will be happy when he comes home tonight - I've had a quick listen and it sounds pretty good.

Taylor woke up this morning complaining of tummy ache and she had been off her food today - she has had a bit of dodgy nappy so I guess she is either teething or has a little tummy bug.. We shall see.. I can't wait until she has all her teeth and then she may be a much happier child. Perhaps the terrible twos is just another saying for "getting those bloody back molars - aagghh" syndrome.

CATCH UP

Okay, so we haven't been here for a while... so its catch up...

Taylor had a rough few days with her "still" growing teeth... we had a few moments where she was the child from hell and now things are settling back down again. We had to introduce the naughty step last week which was a first... she hated it.. However, she now thinks its a cool place to be and keeps asking me if she can sit on it? Mmmmm... what do I do? I try... my daughter has me over a barrell - and I ask myself, how can she be this clever and devious for a 2 yrs and 5 months old!! Because she is my daughter.

I figured she is definitely like my dad today, after she did bottom burp after bottom burp and then stood there, laughed, and said "that was a good one" - this is so my dad through and through. She is always trying to do them... Bless.

Now about me, well I've grown. I;m fattening out... but not for much longer - I really have to get back to weight watchers - so I'm off back in the morning... I have to face the music and realise that I have probably put on half a stone over Easter and get back to losing it - FAST!!!

Here is my inspiration...
