    Thanks for starting the thread flyinggiraffe

    Sorry for being awol, but I am so excited to say that our beautiful little boy arrived on Saturday morning. All is good. He is adorable. And so tiny. :D

    On money news last week I had £5 left in my purse when I looked so need to work out where the difference in my signature is to actual money.

    But either way it means I was green last week. :j I'll say £60/£65

    This week I am pledging £55. Not really sure what I am breaking that down into as yet. And not really sure if I'll stick with posting this week, guess ill see how things go.

    So far

    Well i've managed to grab a quick 5 minutes to pop on. We went to the supermarket this morning, first trip out without daddy. It was fine, I needed some bits as my friend was coming for a visit and we had nothing in. Picked up some more baby bits and bobs too.

  • Congrats ETO! Hope the three of you are doing well :)

    Another NSD for me today. But only because I have lots of £2 coins and I save them for my car insurance to be paid out of.
