Ok

I was pregnant too so actually glowing I have to say

I might dig some out. It was a really warm day and only the 31st March too.

I will suggest one day that we renew our vows and have a party. Though DH hardly knows anyone at all!!

I wasn't trying to win honestly!

I had to wear knickers - help keep my tummy in
I can remember having my dress fitted and not being able to imagine having a big pregnant tummy. Each time i went for a fitting, she had to alter it though!

Girls remember the story yes another story about my wedding photos and the photographer told me that hmmmmmmmmm my underwear was showing when the sun shown. So i removed them till the reception. Then dh was crying so much that i told him i had not knickers on at the alter and the priests microphone picked it up just incase anyone wondering why i said no knickers.

I would have loved to be married in las vegas our two selves. I think sometimes a wedding you get all carried away.

I think I will have the smallest wedding maybe. Me, DP and kids, my parents, his parents, my brother and his brother and sister. Thats only 7 guests. Can't afford anything big as need deposit for house. Think we'd just marry in local registry office and then go for a meal afterwards.

basl · 15/07/2010 23:11

No Bexie i think you got that wrong, how many would it add up to if we all came along. We are invited right? lol or i don't mind i will come to the meal.

We'll have a few unhappy people down south if we keep it small.

Morning all had a good giggle reading back

I wanted to share a conversation that I had with Isobel yesterday.Let me set the scene

Isobel caught me sitting on the back step with the tweezers and a mirror plucking random hairs on my chin (for those of you who are young and beautiful still BE WARNED it will happen to you one day!!)

Any way she was very interested and then stood behind me on the step and told me about all the lovely silver hair I have!

Later on the way to work
Isobel:I love Erica's (Americas) Next Top Model

Me:Do you,are you going to be a model when you go up?

Isobel:Oh no! I am going to grow up just like you ands have lovely silver hair and LOTS of whiskers

lilypie - oh that made me cry and laugh at the same time - so so sweet. I am already at the whisker stage

I am going to dig some pics out later Basl

Bexie - that's exactly what we did. there was my parents, my brother my sister and husband and 2 kids Matthews parents and his old land lady we went for a chinese buffet afterwards - it is our fave buffet and just down the road from register office, perfect!

Morning lilypie, I agree completely with Maxy that made me laugh and gave me a lump in my throat. I am terrible just now i seem to want to bubble at all acts of kindness or anything nice really. Have i told you i love the name Isobel?? How old is she again she sounds like she would get along great with Olivia. She also like Erica's Top Model and sorry brace yourself ladies Cock wan. Soooorrrry but that's what she says.
Lillypie how you doing anyway and how is work?

Thankyou Maxy and for what it's worth your wedding sounded perfect. I love chinese Buffet and the more i thought about it and only speaking for myself here. You do tend to invite everyone and their dog at weddings because they have to and yours sounds so personal. Awww i wish i knew you then iwould def be inviting my self along to the buffet.

Raining real heavy today so we have the Hannah Montana Film on and Olivia sitting with a silly grin on her face.

My dh returns home tonight from a week working in Aberdeen. I think he has missed us but i better get scrubbing the weetabix of the seats.

Nicola have a super time and look forward to your reports on that

Happy times lillypie have a good day too. xx

Well we are off out now to let Olivia spend her credit cards. Wh smith and marks and spencer's.

Bus journey i am dreading as Daniel will not sit without shouting the odds to the whole bus.

Maxy all my pics on Facebook are fraudulent. I do not look anything like i did then. There is one pic of me in Blackpool where i have come clean and shown me as i am now. I am 5f2 and nearly 13st not that would interest anyone just making a point really. We are all different i would imagine from our younger years but yes i am with you. It's time for me to loose weight and the benefits on self esteem work wonders. I just can't manage to shift it tho but yes the walking is fab and i am starting Zumba next week. Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeba!!!!!!

Oh Maxy please send me a link of those undearwear you want for James. I may be going to the next sale tomorrow

Nicola you just read my mind literally. I was just getting the bjcm ready for going out and i thought. I wish i had a little stroller for the bus. He does not sleep in it up town. MMmmmm but i don't know. I love the pea grean volo carrie has but don't know if giant boy would fit it.

Oh he had his feet measured in the clarks discount shop and tell me he is an F He is normaly a G and when really young an H.

Maybe my wee chubber is growning lean and tall like his sister. xx

That has happened to James too Basl - he was a H then a G and now an e/f

He would be ok in volo - it was mine that one

Though I see the BJCM as a little stroller really
