I want to be Jelley.

2boysmacca · 28/02/2007 22:30

It's the short hair obviously

Jelley · 28/02/2007 22:32

Mine isn't a good thin though csws.

I'm off to bed now, will delete pic first though.

I may try and find a pre children one that doesn't have me looking like the living dead in it later in the week, but I'll have to find out ho to use the scanner.

CanSleepWeirdShifts · 28/02/2007 22:34

I still want to be me, but looking more like I did here .

PhoenixGirl · 28/02/2007 22:34

Right found a truly disgusting pic of me 10 days after having ds here

CanSleepWeirdShifts · 28/02/2007 22:35

I'm off to bed in a mo too, once I've finished laughing at MrCSWS's sideburns and the expression on MIL's face in that last photo .

PhoenixGirl · 28/02/2007 22:38

They r lovely sidies

mustrunmore · 28/02/2007 22:42

pgirl, you're really young! Why am I so suprised?

csws, you look really nice in that one (shame about the MIL, ahem...) And that really does show your feline eyes

PhoenixGirl · 28/02/2007 22:46

Young? I think the word you're looking for is rough

mustrunmore · 28/02/2007 22:52

Nah, def young Mind you, at the meet up (the one where csws kept poking me with her pointy breasts just to prove she had them [wink), the one thing I thought about everyone was that they didnt look like mums!! And I'm not that old, so I dont know why I keep thinking like that!

Frizbe · 28/02/2007 23:20

Christ I pop out for the evening and come back to how many posts! your all nattering now I'm not online I see bar Flame, where are you girl?

CSWS your eyes are soooo blue! great coconuts photo

For the record I've just clawed my way back to 11stn and am size 14. I've done this quicker with dd2 than I did with dd1, I held a lot more weight the 1st time round, put on 3stn with 1st preg! only 2 with 2nd, so less to loose, odd eh, as sure I ate same with both? Wld still like to be a bit slimmer tho, but guess thats life!
Macca I can only make the gym as its over the road and doesn't shut until 10....I've given up eating with dh, who gets in 7-7.30, I eat with the kids at 5 instead.....(bar tonight as I've been out with a friend for a meal) Its a bit rubbish really for us all isn't it, we'd all love to exercise lots, but small kids stop you doing it, and if you do go to gym when dh/dp's get home, you don't see them for the evening, as they're asleep by the time you get back!!

Frizbe · 28/02/2007 23:21

Phoenix, I have rougher photos than that with dd1 and she was 6mths!

PhoenixGirl · 28/02/2007 23:26

this is me on christmas day 2005 (so 8ish month pregnant)

I've got some honeymoon pics somewhere on a disc upstairs i'll look for them tomorrow and put a before pic on but there really isn't much difference between before, during and after pregnancy

Frizbe · 28/02/2007 23:31

Hon ya look lovely on that photo I'll have to search our old photo discs tomorrow and see if I can out do you! I really must get another digital camera, its getting beyond a joke the amt of cash I'm spending in developing films lately! just got the xmas ones back today, some great ones of the kids, and I can't post any of them! even the stuffing scanner is in the loft

Flamesparrow · 01/03/2007 00:08

I went out for the evening - Didn't want to ask for a new thread until after the 4th!!

Will find pics tomorrow. Pre-preg weight with DD - 10st 11, with DS 11st 3... now weighing 9st 13. Have gone from 12 - large 14 - 10 Norks have stayed consistent

Very late and still oodle to do, so night night

2boysmacca · 01/03/2007 07:48

A question for your other halfs

When finding a pile of clothes on the bed do you
a) Think, oh good wife has doen the ironing and put said clothes away
b) throw them on the floor before getting into bed and then throwing all the bed clothes on top, walk over them a few times whilst getting in and out of bed

When making the bed in the morning do you
a) find said pile of clothes and think, oh shit as the penny has dropped
b) Look at state of clothes, put wifes clothes away then come downstairs and claim that the workshirts are so badly ironed you didn't realise it was a pile f the ironing and stand by that arguement, refusing to believe the creases are a result of being thrown on floor and trampled on

Right, now one for you ladies

Do you
a) shake head and laughingly call him a silly billy
b) go completely ott and call him a few choice names in front of your 3 year old. Then continue the slander after he's left the house

This in no way represents my morning here

Flamesparrow · 01/03/2007 07:57

Oh clearly a pure hypothetical there

When finding a pile of clothes on the bed do you

b) throw them on the floor before getting into bed and then throwing all the bed clothes on top, walk over them a few times whilst getting in and out of bed

When making the bed in the morning do you
C) Make bed?!?!

Right, now one for you ladies

Do you
c) Give up years ago...

Guessing you went with B, B, and B

This is why ironing is bad!

Forgot to tell you about yesterday... got to about 11.30, realised that I was meant to have the kids to stepmum so I could be at reflexologist at 1pm... so, threw clothes at them, fed em in the car, toddled off to my appointment.

Got back to pick them up and was told that there was a bit of upset in the toilet... when B went to pull her knickers up and realised she wasn't wearing any !! She was wearing a skirt n top which were downstairs, so I put them on her, then poddled off upstairs for the knickers and socks. Couldn't remember why I was up there, so came back down, chucked wellies on her with no socks (because she wanted that), and then rushed her to the car!

All I can think is, at least it wasn't at school!!

mustrunmore · 01/03/2007 07:59

Ah, well we dont do ironing in our house

Jelley · 01/03/2007 08:05

We are
b,
Make bed...you are having a laugh, right?
and I stick squished clothes in his drawers and he wears them regardless. I put mine away first if I remember, to avoid the trampling.

2boysmacca · 01/03/2007 08:09

Ok so I have a rather bad bout of pmt this week.

He doesn't normally make the bed but he did this morning. Of course I usually make it, remember how anal I am about matching bedsheets

Better go get ds2 up, need him clothed before getiing ds1 to school. He's been in bed since 6.30!

PhoenixGirl · 01/03/2007 08:14

I'm a non ironer too.

We all sound really bad don't we? We hardly ever dress our children and don't iron

PhoenixGirl · 01/03/2007 08:15

Oh and don't make the bed either

ds is dressed

You can't see the floors for stuff though.
My parents will be here this afternoon, and I'm at toddler group this morning

So I deal with it by sitting on mn til it is time to go

dd2 used to go commando all the time if I let her dress herself.
