Hi Girls,

Ginger - Ferals here in our house too! And I'm also outnumbered by males Chances are if you've gained 10-15kg after having kids, then so have they, so I wouldn't worry too much. Get yourself a great outfit for the event/s and make the most of your assets. I'd rather be a bit overweight and happy, than thin and miserable After saying that I sound like a total hypocrite because I'm doing the 12 week challenge (my excuse is I want to be fit and healthy before TTC #3).

LP - Oh dear, that is demanding! Sounds like you see the funny side though.

MD - Mother's Day Classic? Is that a fun run or bike race? Wow, you're amazing! Quilting sounds like a great idea, something grown up that doesn't involve kids.

MP - Hope N loves swimming when you start him. Great idea about the sleepover at your Mum's, I should do that with C. DH organised a photo shoot for the boys, but forgot all about Mother's Day until the photographer asked if the 'photos' were a Mother's Day gift. So now it is, but I don't mind because I was going to suggest it.

Trill - Good to see you posting! Hope your Mum's doing OK and that your Uni workload isn't too much.

Arte - I love the daggy dancing tip! Hope your trip goes well. DH would have a fit if I let C help in the kitchen. He's terrified that C will get burnt.

Noni - That's great W is doing better with solids. We're also racking our brains trying to come up with inside activities.

Cally - Mmmm milkshakes! I love the little voice from the backseat Mine waits until I floor it at the lights and then says 'Go Mum! You can do it!'

Cass - Glad you manged to get to Ballarat! My DH just sorts himself out and leaves me to do everything else (including packing his bag!) I'm amazed we ever manage to get anywhere.

We had a photoshoot with a photographer today. R is 5 months old today and was the perfect angel. C had a temp last night but perked up today, so I risked doing the shoot anyway. He was good, but was a little 'flat' compared to his usual self. Whatever he had I think I'm getting. Feels like the 'flu.
12 week challenge is going OK. I've lost 900g and 2cm.

Hope everyone had a good long weekend!
