Movember....



Yep Darryl is going to grow it, much to my disgust! i HATE facial hair! haha i wonder what would happen if i said im not going to shave my armpits for a month!! (ew! no i wouldnt do that!) anyway, come the end of the month he WILL shave it off (he has no choice, he knows i would come after him in his sleep!) but it will be very interesting to see how icky it looks by then! if you havent guessed he is going for the OCC handlebars look!!!!!

I did what i was scared to do today, i stepped on the scales, and im DAMN pleased i did! 98kg baby! the first time in about 5 years that i have been under 100kg! so lets keep it this way huh? im not going to "diet" but i am going to limit the chips, chocolates, hot chocolates, muffins etc that i have got into the habit of having quite often lately, way too often actually. we still eat healthy breakfasts, lunchs and dinners, i just have to watch my snacking and of course eventually start walking again. Had a yummy dinner tonight, just a beef stirfry on Basmati Rice, but i just lightly flavoured the beef with a bit of sweet chilli and a teaspoon of red curry paste, it was really nice without being saucy and too laden with flavours, yummmm

im venturing out on my own for the first time tomorrow! im a bit scared, but have all Kaylees things ready to go, and just need to sort Olivias nappy bag out, im biting the bullet and taking Kaylee to a playgroup, im pretty shit with big groups of new people that i dont know, so when Darryls sister rang me to see if i wanted her to take Kaylee to playgroup, i thought, oh what the hell, and said im coming too, be good for me to get out of the house (also means i can detour on the way home and get SUSHI for lunch!! yum!!) i have to be back home by 1pm for my midwives appt, but im sure i will enjoy being out and about, i just have to take the plunge and do it, and it shouldnt be that hard (im hoping!)

Kaylee went to work with Darryl for the afternoon today, poor thing has been getting so bored, i really dont know how to juggle her and Olivia, i will work it out im sure, but plonking Kaylee infront of the TV all the time really isnt doing her any favours (or me!) i have managed to take her to the playground a couple of times, but hopefully i will be in some kind of routine again in the next couple of weeks and Kaylee wont be so bored!!

All these new things that i have to learn! we will get there!!

Haha! I think it suits him - you won't believe it, but Joseph has shaved his face for the second time since I've known him... and is growing the exact same moustache for movember! Too funny.

Playgroup will be fun - Kaylee will love it!

Oh - by the way, you can cross of number 1 off your list, and maybe number 2 too!! :-)

I'm going to gross you out now by saying I shave under my arms very haphazardly. Especially now it's winter in the UK, I probably won't bother that often. I haven't shaved my legs in years although I did have them waxed this summer before our hols and I might do that again.
I am quite lucky because I'm a redhead and my body hairs are quite light. But also I decided to get a bit feministic about hair removal a few years ago - so unless it bothers ME I don't shave it.

Way to go with the scales! That must have been a very healthy pregnancy!

Thankfuly Andrew isn't doing the Movember thing - basically to save embarrassment as it would only look like a couple of days growth rather than a month......hahahaha.

Good luck with the playgroup thing, Kaylee will have a ball and you might enjoy it too???

Don't stress too much about getting into a routine with both girls, I have been trying to do that with my boys and Adam is 2 now and I still can't get it right....hahaha

Enjoy your sushi.

OK, I think I have told you this before, but I went on protest earlier this year about Jonny's facial hair and stopped shaving my pits for several weeks...

Well, I ended up in hospital didn't I, wearing a friggin baggy robe for 2 days with massive gaping armpit holes and me with disgusting hairy pits, LOL!!!

Top that off with a visit in hospital from a couple of friends/workmates, and you have yourself one little girl who will shave her armpits every day for the rest of her life :-)

Well done on the 98kg though, well done!
