I’m delighted to report that I’ve lost 2lbs, even with a slight blip on Wednesday lunch time when I had a buffet lunch and cake at work! This weekend I have indulged a little on chocolate. With us going away on Friday, I’ve been letting the kids eat any eggs…

One night last week, Simon and I went to Oscar’s parents’ evening at school. We’d been to one just after he started, but it mainly focused on how well he was settling in, so I was looking forward to hearing how he was getting on. As soon as we sat…

Last week the twins had their two year development review. The twins played with various toys whilst I chatted to the health visitor and answered various questions about each of them. I was a little worried about Henry’s speech. I know I shouldn’t compare them, but when you have twins it’s…

This week my weight has stayed the same, which I’m pretty happy with. I ate loads last weekend, due to it being Mother’s Day, and although I’ve been pretty good this week, we had a chip shop dinner on Thursday night due to a crazy day at work and me…

This week’s update is a little later than normal because I’m still coming to terms with the fact that I’ve put on 2lbs!! I’m not quite sure how that has happened. In fact, I was so shocked that I went out an bought another set of scales! Unfortunately, as confirmed…

The twins have mild eczema and as a result I’m always on the hunt for bath products and creams that can help relieve it. Henry has it worse than Heidi. It tends to appear on his chest and he often has quite bad scratch marks, in the areas where he’s…

I’ve seen quite a few Mother’s Day gift guides, so I thought I’d put my own together. I’ve tried to include something for everyone, but have to admit that I have been slightly selfish, with my plan being to direct hubby to it throughout the year for gift inspiration. It…

I can’t quite believe it, but this week I’ve lost 4lbs! That makes a total loss of 8lbs in three weeks! The amazing part is that I’m eating lots and I’m rarely hungry – it’s fab! I wanted to weigh 9st 7lbs for our holiday to Portugal, which is in…

At the weekend I ran my first 10k race of the year. Actually I think it was also the first time I’ve managed to run 10k this year. One of my New Years resolutions was to run 10k in under an hour at some point during the year. A few…

Tonight I experienced the scariest couple of minutes of my life. Henry choked, not just your usual gaging, before it appears again, but properly choked to the point of almost turning blue. It was absolutely horrendous and something I hopefully never have to experience again. I’d returned home from work…
