Evie is sleeping on the floor, she found it preferable to sleeping on me!
despite being a chocoholic I have managed to lose 4 and a half stone in 12 months. This is my diary of the highs and lows of trying to keep the weight off (or at least under reasonable control).

spooky ordering
For the past week I have been on the lookout for Halloween clothes for Evie ;o)
So I have looked in the supermarkets but could only find trick or treat outfits, so I decided to look at the Marks & Spencer site online and found this and this, so I went into our local store on Friday to buy them but because they have such a small range in there they didnt have them in stock.
So I decided to order them online the hello kitty top was out of stock (and still is) but I did manage to get her the skeleton one ;o)
I picked it up this afternoon so come Halloween Evie is going to look well spooky ;o)

back to the library
Yesterday me & Evie went back to the library after the Summer break...
...I was worried that now she is walking that she would go running off, but no...
...she did have a little walk about and came back to me, and there was one point where she was struggling to get away from me, by this time there were loads of people coming in so I kept hold of her.
In the main I was sitting on the floor and Evie was sitting between my legs ;o).

postcard photos
This weeks Project Flickr project is postcards (more specifically pictures that would look good on them)
I really wanted to find a dog poop so I could call it TOWIE but thanks to considerate dog owners they are a rarity ;o)
Anyway so I found some suitable rubbish and took a photo of that instead ;o)
I also did this one of a leaf falling from a tree

Feeding dolly
Sometimes (well most of the time now) when Evie is eating her meal she will stop halfway through and wont want to eat anymore - she ether knocks my hand away or will try and tip over her bowl/plate (I keep telling her that it is naughty doing that but still).
Anyway so I get out one of her toys (dolly in this case) and offer dolly a spoon of food and then offer some to Evie and then she starts eating again and then wants to feed dolly too ;o)
Poor dolly is now in need of a wash and I checked her label yesterday and it says to handwash her - James just used the washing up sponge to remove some of the muck ;o)

I thought that I had a stomach bug
Yesterday me & Evie were supposed to meet up with my 2 friends and my friend Emmas Mum for lunch, but after I had my breakfast I had stomach pains and felt like I was going to be sick...
...I thought that I had a stomach bug.
So I let my freinds know that we wouldnt make it.
Luckily by later in the afternoon my stomach pains had gone but the sick feeling remained and luckily they didnt materialise into anything.
I didnt eat any lunch but did have some dinner as I was feeling hungry and was ok ;o)
I have no idea what it was and hope that Evie doesnt "catch" it...

week two
The second week started off with our last session at Gymbabes on the Monday and on the Wednesday we did our first session at Tumble Tots...
...as they both tire Evie out we didnt do anything for the rest of the day...
On Monday morning we also took Evie back to the shoe shop to get her feet measured and yes they have grown and she is now a size 4 ;o) So we bought her some new shoes.
Tuesday (because it wasnt raining) we took Evie to Hylands Parks Adventure Castle...
I must have been banging on about it too much because James first words were "is this it?"
Evie enjoyed going there but couldnt go down the slides because they were too wet from all of the rain on the Monday.
We only probably stayed for 45 minutes before Evie just wanted to be carried so we left.
Thursday we went to Lakeside we needed to get Evie some new pajamas (I have bagged up all of her summer stuff and she didnt have many pairs of long sleeved ones).
We ended up getting her these and these (I even bought them in the next size up which is a very "Mummy" thing to do ;o)
As James had told his Mum that we needed pajamas for Evie he said to let her buy her some too (I certainly wasnt going to refuse ;o)).
We looked in BHS and they didnt have anything in Evies size so it was back to M&S ;o) where they got Evie some more ;o)
