Canadian Moms & Moms to be!

[babymama]

darn. I better put some pants on then if it's cold there Kat it doesn't sound like shorts are gonna cut it here!

yeah.. shorts are a no go IMO.

OMG.. guys my weigh in day is tomorrow BUT... I'm on a cleanse, lol.. and I took a peek.. I lost 4lbs this week without really altering my eating habits, lol. And I feel better too

good job! I decided I'm not weighing myself anymore. The fact that I went from a size S to L and had to try on a size 9/10 pants (usually 3/4) tells me enough

I've dropped 2 pant sizes ( )

I should add that I'm still a fatty lol

Totally feel your pain. I used to wear either 1/2 or 3/4 and I was a size S... I bought size 7 pants the other day...

And I tried on size L bathing suits. FML!!

I miss my old hips. (well, lack thereof)

 

[Tiff]

I was a small and now wear large stuff as well. It's been very humbling!

 

[babymama]

I miss my old hips. (well, lack thereof)

ME TOO!!!

We may have all gained weight but look at what we got out of it

 

[Stiina]

Well if it makes you feel any better I didn't get much! I had such a hard time finding stuff that I liked or that would look flattering on me-pregnancy did not so nice thing to me LOL
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Eddie Bauer as does BJ-really $$$$$ tho! Got a shirt there today that cost 98$
Did you end up get the cows in the pasture??? What a hot day to do that! On our drive to Regina I saw a guy herding sheep in on a horse with some dogs and thought it was the cutest thing ever (loser I know LOL)
Hope you all had a nice day!!

I know, EB is so out of my league! I wrote down all the things I wanted out of the catalogue and then went online and put them on my "wishlist" and it came out to almost $300! Good thing it's just a wish list!!

Yep, we got all the cows out, but only one horse back! My horse was the only one that Kalevi could catch; the other ones just galloped away. Dinks!

Ok girls...all this talk about sizes and trying to lose weight (btw, congrats Tasha!) has got me scared! :O I hope I don't grow too huge! I like my size! But like Emily said...we get a pretty good prize out of it!

And Vickie and Tasha..get out of the house! Go enjoy the nice weather while we have it! My husband's brother was over yesterday to install a new window in our kitchen, and I was just outside admiring it when I realized he trampled my beautiful blooming bulbs that I worked so hard for! So I had to come in for my work gloves...and got DISTRACTED! lol!

Talk to you girls later!

Oh! P.S. I am working 3 days a week for my neighbour who is the Development Manager for a new organization in the province called the Saskatchewan Cattlemen's Association. I attend meetings and take minutes, and am currently organizing the District Elections that are coming up in the fall. It's interesting to me cause I'm a cattle producer too! It's all administration stuff, but at least it's related to my industry!

I wonder if being over weight has ALOT of bearing on TTC.........I am not morbidly obese but I am over weight, recently changed eating habits, got the Wii fit and walking the dog more but dont want to take anything to help me, too scared while TTC. Anyway, my periods are regular etc...so I know I am not too big, but you all got me thinking, hmmm, thanks alot ladies, LOL

 

[Stiina]

I don't know Sassy...something to keep in mind I guess! Wishing you all the best luck with your TTCing Hope you get your little girl soon!

I'm overweight also! I woudln't say morbidly abese but definiatly have extra junk in the trunk-we weren't TTC at all but it happened! I hate how everyone is always saying how hard it will be to have a baby if you are fat! Yes I am sure if you are 600LBS it might be difficult!

Holy smokes sounds like your a busy girl!!
I get distracted by BnB all the time I am lucky tho as BJ does all the housework and laundry (hes obsessive about having everything perfectly clean and if I do it he goes behind me to redo it all )

We were out enjoying the sun today-I was trying to get the garden going beside our place but it needs all new soil-so I said forget it-don't have time to keep it up this year!

 

[pinkmac85]

So I think my child hates the outdoors!!!
I put her in the snuggly today so we could go out and get some fresh air and she just whined and made all these annoying sounds LOL then I took out a blanket-put it in the shade and brought out her toys and she just got all cranky! She HATES the sun-hates the wind-hates everything about the outdoors! I hope she outgrows it!! I like taking her outside as an excuse for me to lay out and get some colour

 

[Vickie]

Hannah hated being outside too until recently I'm sure she'll outgrow it

 

[BlackBerry25]

Pampers Point site isn't working today I am all excited to enter in some codes!! How many points do you all have? I only have 19 plus the ones I have to put in. I wasn't putting them in the first few months.

Elyse loves it up

I bought Elyse a shirt and a hat from Gymboree today- in 3-6 mos size, when it fits, I'll get her pics done They had a 20% or 30% off thing going on,

We have jean shorts and a pair of white pants from Joe Fresh we're going to put with it. I've looked everywhere and can't find any damn sandals for little feet! I'm so happy though I got a shirt and hat for under $40 there - a rarity lol

 

[tasha41]

And I only have like 6 Pampers points

I got her a pair of skull shoes too from Spencers Gifts... OH bought me a ring. Not "THE" ring, it's just something from Green Earth (if you know that store?)

 

[nataliecn]

My weigh in day is Wednesday! I'm so excited. It's brutal how much I'm looking forward to it.. and if it hasn't gone down, I can guarantee i'll be eating like a cow within 15 minutes of being off! I'm horrible for binge eating if I don't get good results!

 

[nataliecn]

That's an adorable outfit!

My MIL found some really adorable sandals for Grady in the states! They were size 2, and just about don't fit anymore. He's growing way too fast!

 

[tasha41]

Oooh they had Canada day stuff too.. one shirt said "Little Miss Canada".. wanted to buy, but it was like $30 I think - I am NOT spending that on a baby's shirt
