The Ramblers

[Scampie]

Im sooo bloody good at spending £50 when going out for a loaf of bread. Its rediculous. I bought a pair of trainers yesterday which i wasnt really supposed to buy. Mind you, Ive had the same old trainers for about 4 years, lol.

Ive just finished putting up finns swing which he got for his bday. Its HUGE! What happened to the days of chuckin a rope over a branch, lol. Thats about all ive done today. Me n my mate had a little too much wine last night, only just got round to opening the curtains, lol.

My bloody fone line has a fault too! Waiting for an engineer to come out. Fingers crossed its the line and not something wrong at the house. The boiler was fixed but is dead again too, lol. The only thing still working in this house is the bricks and cement, lol. Hoping they arent gonna give in on me any time soon!

 

[jess3012]

bloody hell thats really bad with the house! i'm sure all will come goos in the end!

I know what you mean about the phone line! they charge a bloody fortune if its a problem within the house!

Arrrr i haven't had a good drink in ages! i seriously need a night out! shame im dieting!

 

[Missy86]

Hiya we have internet lol

We have no shower and you should have seen the bathroom floor it was gross. We have put that vinyl flooring down till we put the new bathroom in but I think you beat me Gem haha

Rhys is throwing tantrums all the time now, I shouldnt laugh but he is just so funny when he does

 

[jess3012]

hey eliese hows you doing?

you all settled in now?

 

[Missy86]

Kind of it's gonna take ages, going to ikea to get some bits today
How are you doing

 

[jess3012]

Not bad! im aching like f**k today!

im off to the carboot tomorrow to try and earn some pennies! ive got some right crap cluttering up the house!

Nice to hear its coming along! everything takes time!

 

[Scampie]

Bloody hell, 9lb jess, good shit! I need to get on a diet soo bad. Thought id lose loads moving, but I seem to still weigh the same.

The bathroom sounds lush eliese, lol. Ive got a lovely 1970s peach suite at the min, lol. Its grim! We are getting there now. Just finns and sams room to sort out. Gonna work on those tomorrow. Sam needs a new bed as his is gonna block out all the light so hes on a matress on the floor, lol.

How are you lo;s getting on with their talking? Finns now starting to come out with a few more things. His latest word is bottle. His bye has now turned into die, so he waves at people shouting die, lol. Quite funny! He still doesnt say much though. Its pretty much Mum, Sam(Mam), dog, bye, baby and bottle. Hes almost got the hang of ta.

 

[jess3012]

I know! Only 1st8lb to go! I keep forgeting to fill in myfitness planner!

We've got a old bathroom and kitchen! Needs some proper pennies spending on it!! Why did I book a holiday again!!

Megans not very far with her words she know ta, dada, mamam, nan, dog, who's that!(Wish she would forget that one though!) And what's that!

Lol at him waving and saying die!!

Anyones lo scared of balls?! I've got one of them yoga balls from when I was pregnant and she hates it, as soon as she sees it she runs to the opposite end of the room screaming her hed off!

 

[Scampie]

Bloody hell Jess, Thats alot of weight to lose. Wish i could stick to a diet.

Finn probably says more than I realise but I dont have a clue what hes goin on about 99pct of the time. Never known him to put 2 words together...Other than uh and oh. He puts those together alot. LOL as im sitting here hes doing buh byeee. Hasnt done that b4. Typical man, always showing off

No fear of balls here. Only thing he seems to be scared of is drills and thunder while hes sleeping.

 

[Missy86]

Rhys loves balls you can bet he will find the only ball in a room and flick it

I have gone right off the idea of another Rhys, I am finding it really hard to cope with a toddler how is everyone coping

 

[jess3012]

I know! but its only what ive put on over the years i have been with oh! i want to be able to feel confident in a bikini again! not looking good so far though!

Im not hitting my calorie goals i don't know what i could eat that would be good, ive been eating alot of salad and eating fruit but i like eating them anyway! I carn't stand stirfrys! last one made me sick.

I think megan is just copying what we say to her all the time!

i thought you might have been having second thoughts when i noticed the ttc ticker gone!!
I know how you feel! don't know how these people cope that have got 4 or more! must be mad!

 

[Scampie]

I find finn fine so long as we r at home and hes center of attention, lol. If hes not, hes a nightmare. I cant take him anywhere. He doesnt like being in his pushchair, yet he likes to walk where he wants if he walks, and has a break down if i try and prevent him.

Hes getting pickier and pickier over food. Hes currently throwing his breakfast on the floor and screeching at me. Hes about to go hungry!

Hes into everything he shouldnt be. Literally, anything you put down he is straight on it. I cant put a cup of coffee down in the lounge at all. Cant have the laptop in the lounge. He doesnt listen to no.

SO yeh, im with ya, toddlers r hard work, lol. Hes not all bad, he goes to bed really well still and sleeps through, and is happy playing in the garden all day. Its mainly feeding him and taking him in public I struggle with.

Ive NEVER worn a bikini jess, lol. Never will, lol. No 1 wants to see that By not hitting your goals, do you mean eating too little? I struggled with that when using that fitness pal. Thought I was doing well till i realised i needed to eat more.

 

[jess3012]

Yeah I'm not eating enough calories! I ate just under 900 yesterday and I burnt nearly 700 of exercising

Why have you never worn a bikini?! I'm sure you have got a lovely figure!

Megans not so bad when we take her out but when were at home she touches everything she shouldn't! She's learning what no means but its a slow process!

I've got a weightloss journal going on in the dieting forum! You should come over. Maybe we could help eachother!

 

[Missy86]

Rhys is better when we go out, when he is out its like butter wouldnt melt and in the house he is like a devil child, tell me it gets better Gem

Im back on the diet now we have moved but its so hard they now do mini twirls

 

[jess3012]

Whos doing mini twirls?!

I'm having a day in the house today! Carnt be arsed to go out!
I've got the whole house to clean though, including the windows

 

[Scampie]

OMG! Mini twirls...In multiple packs I presume? Thats more dangerous than a big twirl if you ask me! I twirls.

Yeh, it defo gets easier Eliese. Its hard when they are little, but I think sticking by your guns and perservering with making sure they know whats acceptable is the best way to go. Its hard work, but I find the more work you do now, the easier they are when they are older. Im no expert mind you, lol. I just dont have to tell sam off much as he knows whats expected of him. My friend has 3 awful kids cos she gave up when they were little and let them do what they liked. Now they control her.

I simply lol at your lovely body comment Jess, lol! Ive got pretty good legs and arms, its the middle bit thats awful, lol. I have no waist or hips. I go in at the hips and out at the gut, lol. Not even really a weight thing, thats just my shape. Im a tankini girl!

Today we be skating! Leaving finn with my aunt for a bit as poor sam has been entertaining himself most of the holidays poor sod. Thought we better get something in b4 hes back at school.

 

[Missy86]

Tiny twirls in a sharing bag lol

 

[jess3012]

ohh you mean the chocolate! lol

Im okay when it comes to chocolate! never really a big fan!

Hope you enjoyed your skating gem!

 

[Missy86]

Gem you look great, I'm sure you have men gagging for it

 

[Scampie]

Lol! Oh eliese! Thats just funny, rofl. I have to call in favours just to get laid, lmao!

Omg to twirls in bags. That sounds amazing! I must have some. Did you think there were people out there doing a half twizzle Jess? Lol.
