<25 BFPs!! 12 births!! Welcome to the world turtle babies!>

Your dress is super Jaynie. A good winter dress too because I think the black tights set it off well

April I rather like the 60's number 5 rug but the no 1 is more homely and your turquoise elements in the summer would work with it since they'd harmonise with the grey. But for all my decorating projects I'm not very good at interior design things, I just do my decorating in a whirlwind of randomness and think about it afterwards!!

Sarachka you forgot to add knitting, cycling and eating bananas to the hollymonkey world peace movement!

Yes I am wrapped toasty warm and just had my vanilla latte! I think it's -7 here B... What a croc.

We get breakfast in work on a Friday, I am going to have bacon and sausage and mushrooms and egg on a barm

Holly is in her cosy pyjamas with an extra jumper coz it's freezing but she didn't want to wear her slippers but her glittery party shoes She looks so funny and sweet!

I have to brave the cold for glucose test strips and groceries this morning!

Sarachka I hope a good thing happens at work for you today, a good placement for someone on a course or job or something to make up for the poofuck of this week

I'm going in a minute to get fodder and will buy bacon and eggs to have for brunch. I had breakfast at 6 so am starving now but there's no food in the house!

I have a really warm chapka to wear Holly will have to wear her moon boots and I'll put a massive blanket over her in the pushchair- she's crappy at keeping mittens on and then cries because her hands are ice blocks

Crunch, how goes it with Lauren? I would love to lay her and esme next to each other and see what real difference there is apart from baking time!

Kit, has your area had anymore break ins? We had a warning note from neighbourhood watch saying local areas have been targeted! How is cara?

 

[poas]

Esme looks like a ''war baby'' today, lots of layers, some tweed and a hand knitted carry for good measure maybe I'll post a pic later

 

[poas]

Jaynie I LOVE that colour, had a swing coat in that style and colour, which I adored, but I left it at the pub one night and never saw it again how is your job going?

 

[HollyMonkey]

I'm happy because last night in bed DH said I wasn't looking so skinny this time, just slim, and that with Holly I lost much more weight. I showed him my gd book from with Holly to point out that at 27 weeks with Holly I weighed 50.3kgs and at the moment am a kilo lighter for the same term, because I'd only just done my routine glucose screening and hadn't begun the diet yet with Holly (my doc and I thinking I was low risk, we left it late, derrrr! ) But then he reminded me that my weight loss has probably stabilised now in a way it didn't have time to when preggo with Holly, since on a lowcarb/high protein diet you lose weight rapidly in the first few weeks (like I did with Holly) and then your body becomes more efficient and the weight loss slows up. He has a point, I've read this alot, so maybe I won't get so skinny this time since my body has had 6 months so far to adapt this time, not just 3rd tri of pregnancy. And it seems to be yo-yo-ing rather than be shooting down and down like with Holly. Plus I'm a pro now at the diet/sport equilibrium. Just had sausages, bacon and egg to help things along a bit though We can but live in hope!

Ginge how are you today? Any symptoms? I saw you were emotional the other day....and how is jobhunt going?
