    NSD #2 :j:j

    Have been out on two occasions today and managed to stay away from the shops.

    Had the little man weighed and blimey he's putting weight on like you wouldn't believe. :D

    Sitting here now really fancying either minstrels or choccie raisins. But don't want to spoil my NSD. And need to think about my weight. And can't be a***d to go to the shops. :rotfl:

    Thanks for the updates Sazzie, Spoony, Freeby.

    Hope everyone is well and enjoying the weather.
