    Sorry that I have not had time to email my updated figure but I had my beautiful daughter Ava on Saturday. Also I need to re-add up as we had no change for hospital so had to use jam jar money. I think i'll replace this though at some point over the next few days.
    Hope your all well.
    Laura :)

    Congratulations on the birth of your daughter!!:T

    Congratulations on the birth of Ava!! Will go looking for more details now! :D

    On the change side, I've been adding a little here and there, but not had much change. Will add up this weekend and see if it's gone up much. I do hope so!
