I just saw that Nicola. Lol
My lot have driven me mad the last few days. Today we got out though which makes such a difference. Dug a lot of sand in the park. And that was just me. I love digging in the sand.
I like filling in all the channels that get dug by others. Not while they are making them natch. I think it's the mother/tidier in me.

Hmm DD3 in bed with us most nights although she does start out on her own in her own bed.
Lovely relaxing interlde there helping DP with screaming little ones and hair washing and combing. And breathe.
I have not gotten around to pouring myself wine yet and now have to go off and de-louse DD1.
The joys.

Darn. Went through to the living room, hadn;t been through since the DDs had their crisps and film and the place was a tip. Crisps on the carpet, cushions all over the floor, packets on floor, toys and clothes. Makes me want to cry.

OMG Carrie i just about sh-- myself there. I was just waiting on the page loading and reaching for another crisp when i saw my name and step away and i felt all ashamed . I have been very good on sw but just had a look at the website i am signed up for and looked at some of the foods i have been eating and I so need to start checking before i eat. So i decided to right today off and start with my newly printed off sheets of meal planner etc and start tomorrow. I have been very good but felt the need for a in for a penny type of cheat. Thanks tho i do like you are encouraging me xxxx How are you anyway??

Flyme now i would like you to click your heels together and say outloud " There's no place like basl's There's no place like Basl's" and come have a huge glass of wine and a laugh. Wee shame sounds like you are having a wrotten time of it. I know exactly what you mean about the mess and yeah it does make you want to cry but yeah "keep swimming keep swimming" love that little quote from my slimming advisor. xxx

basl · 30/07/2010 23:43

Sorry ladies just read back and i do blether the biggest lot of useless info. I think i should be on twitter or something. I just seem to be speaking out anything and everything. I will try and keep my jibberish limited and try and keep with the pram talk.

yes weather turned today first day boys got jeans on for weeks! nice get bored of same old clothes. Am secretly looking forward to autumn tbh. Just going to order some dresses from Next for me! going to make an effort now..not all jeans jeans jeans!

basl · 31/07/2010 11:19

Morning, glad i have not been too bugging

Nicola if i had your figure i would be wearing dresses in this weather. I am a Jeans Jeans jeans girl too and it does get boring. I just don't get away with many styles with my cube shaped middle.

The hood for my bjcc is going back. It doesn't fit anyway and it's £45 what was i thinking??? I ordered it when i first got the classic but was out of stock but like the hood now.

nicolamumof3 · 31/07/2010 16:04

lol basl. Well i don't know about my figure. Have a huge fat wobbling tummy thats for sure dresses will prob look better tbh. I ordered three from next and some riding style boots for winter.

Just got back from manic party with the boys was soooo hot mad weather as it was raining this morning and i had washing in dryer. Just had quick shower so feel better now.

basl · 31/07/2010 16:38

You may well have the tummy you describe but you have a slim figure i know because i have seen your pics. No pics on facebook of me these days just some from a few years ago. I think you are getting all ready for the Aut/winter and i have just cleared out Olivia's clothes. OMG i have chucked tonns of stuff out. I am looking forward to her wearing uniform and not the fight over an outfit everyday.

Very hot here today and has been raining.

I wonder how Flyme is getting on with her superlite stroller. Been looking at those again and wonder if i should get shot of the bjcm and the classic and have that? or keep the bjcm and get one of those for hols. I love the sound of the volo but still a bit if i would like it?

nicolamumof3 · 31/07/2010 18:00

yep you may not like the little wheels. Im still not sure on superlite?

well im size 14 so average i guess? would like to drop a size at least but im too lazy and too greedy!

basl · 31/07/2010 18:17

Well i have just been for a walk with kids and Olivia showing tiredness after all her late nights so she really did not want to go, so she sat in the classic She looked so funny playing with her dolls with her legs crossed like she was sitting on a seat. She has masses of room in it and i could hardly tell she was in it. Sounds like the same thing i go over and over again. I love it AGAIN and would be such a shame to get rid. I think i just would like something new!!!!

nicolamumof3 · 31/07/2010 18:23

i know the feeling basl!

basl · 31/07/2010 21:05

Ahhhh i have just been chatting to a girl on FB [dh out on a nightout so bored] and she was asking me about couriers for posting a buggy. She told me she has been buying them from that second hand warehouse near me for pennies and doing them up and making a fortune. We have just been laughing about it as she says her husband is going mental. Well i let her know she will become well and truly addicted lol

She needs a double buggy for her two babies as she is a child minder but it needs to be narrow. Am i safe to say the double nipper is on the narrower side?????

nicolamumof3 · 31/07/2010 21:08

yes it is 77cm i think? i need to sell this fixed wheel as just bought a 360!

basl · 31/07/2010 21:14

Wow you act fast Mrs. Well her gate is only 75 so i think she is struggling a bit. She did mention Phil n ted but no recline? So nicola are you going to put the fixed wheel on ebay? What colour is the nipper 360 and is it new?
