  • Hey WooWoo!

    I have DD who is 2 and DS 5 months.

    Not got much on the agenda for today - got ASDA shop coming tonight :T so looking forward to updating my sig (Is this what my life has come to.........yip pretty much!:rotfl:).

    Wasted £2 last night paying into a fireworks display - DD started screaming at the noise and we had to leave! Boooooo! Never mind....

    Made cakes last night - just my usual crispy cakes but I decided to be a bit more adventurous and put some fudge chunks in :p yum yum!!

    I also have a bid on ebay! Yipeeeee!

    Mmm the cakes sound yummy!

    I bet those 2 keep you nice & busy :) Does DS go through the night ok? My boss has an 8 month old DS who still wakes several times a night, you can tell what kind of night he's had, double tea bag cuppa = bad night lol!

    Oh I'm so used to no sleep that I don't even notice anymore - I run on fumes :rotfl:

    DD is worse than DS!
  • ASDA shop weighed in at £41.65 - not too shabby! Quite pleased - will aim for under £40 next week and see how I do! :T

    Made DD some play-doh tonight :money:. Was spending a fortune on the real stuff as she loves playing with it, but it dries out really quickly. MIL is a nursery nurse and gave me a recipe - saving me lots of pennies!

    Off out tomorrow night to the theater , budgeting £30 so hopefully come home with change!

    Going on a diet - starting to feel like a puddin' (too many crispy cakes) and starting to wean DS off the breast so won't have that as an excuse for stuffing my face as much ;).

    Well done on the shop.

    Theater will be a nice evening out, have you already brought your ticket, are you going for food first?
