Connor is 2

Had a long last few week so not had time to breath let alone to blog!

Right well so far our garden has been started and the shed is gone now and the path next to it and so that is waiting for the decking being put down (should start that this weekend) and me and my brother have started pulling all the old flowers and plants up because i don't like any of them and want to start a new with all stuff that i pick out and also they were really over grown so we also have to re do the borders so there all the same size and look nice again.

I also have been up north at the weekend to see my nan and grandad as it was Connors 2nd birthday at the weekend and they haven't seen him in around 5 months as they live so far away (around 3 hour)
My aunt came back down with us and is staying at my mum and dads for a week and then my dad is driving her back up next week.

And it was Connors birthday at the weekend! he got so much stuff, mostly all Thomas and toy story stuff and a few bits for the garden like a sand pit and slide and he got a 16ft slip and slide!!! Matt has kinda nicked that one till Connor is older.
We had it up at the weekend and Matt was going down it and Connor even did, it was so funny as he was fully dressed because we didn't think he would go on it.

I feel pretty breathless at the mo and i think its to do with this new bug i have been growing for the last few months, i think its called aspergillus? (is that right ?? Gemma would know lol)
anyway i have not long had i.v's so I'm sure its this bug and not anything else.
I think i may be asking for some meds for it soon as i don't like the feeling, i get it most nights when i lay down in bed when i 1st go to bed and its not a nice feeling at all, like someone is sitting on my chest or something like that.

Got to cut this short as Connor needs changing lol the joys of motherhood!

Im So Fat! (well fat for me)

I hate my shape, now i have put weight on (and still putting it on might i add!) I'm such an odd shape and i hate it i really do, nothing fits any more and i cant seem to find any jeans that will fit my short, skinny legs and my big preg looking belly!!!!!!!!!
I'm not normally a vain person at all, i have my back and have had it for years now so i don't care about that now (but still don't like it) i just hate my belly, i have always been a size 6-8 and now size 10 jeans are getting to small! i mean come on CF!!!!!!! please give me a break, we have all this other stuff to put up with and now you give me this too.

What brings this on i hear you ask, well i don't have any crop jeans or cropped combats and i want some for the summer so have been looking for ages and couldn't find any, well i for 2 pairs great ones today, one of each too and i get them home (there a size 10 by the way) and i just cant do them up. i even nearly cried over it, how silly is that.
I now have to go back to moz and change them for a size 12 but i will try them on in the shop this time!

I also got Connor a green lamp for his bedroom too today and i like its great, it is nearly the same as his green wall in his bedroom so i like it but Matt thinks it looks like a old person lamp as its just a plan lamp.

I have lost my cable to charge my camera so i cant put any photos on my laptop and i cant take any more! its really making me angry coz it was here a few weeks ago but not now.

We also got a new bin today as our old one died.........it was one of them push top ones (2nd one we have had) and Connor bust it (like the 1st) so today we got a pedal one so i hope he will leave this one be, i tell him its not a game but he don't seem to care he just thinks its a new toy for him.

I'm off to bed now as Connor was up at 5am today with a messy nappy and then wouldn't go back to sleep but at least i was up and ready to take my i.v's on time lol

Bit Of A Worry.

Well matt came home from work last night and said that his days at work had been cut from 5 a week to 3 a week.
Its a bit of a worry to say the least, we just about get buy with what were on at the mo so taking a loss of £500 a month is really going to mess us up.
We have bills and credit cards and stuff to pay for and we already don't go out much and never for meals and only get a take a way once a month or so.
They have to wait till September at least before they find out if they go back to 5 days a week.
The council wont help with the rent as when Matt 1st went back to do last year he did 3 days a week and so was the same money and they wouldn't help then so I'm not holding my breath that they will help us out now but we will ring them to find out for sure, i might do that today, give them a bell I'm sure they will send out some paper work or something like that.

Connor has been in his single bed now for a week and he is doing so well, he cried the 1st 2 nights but after that he got right in bed and falls asleep on his own, I'm so proud of him.
He is growing up so fast!

Books, i.v's and everything else!

Connor's bedroom is all done now, only took a month! i have already started to rip the wallpaper off mine and Matt's bedroom but he says he is having a weekend off this week and will sand and paint next weekend so i have a week left to rip the rest of the wallpaper off at least.

I'm on i.v's at the moment, i come off them on Monday so not long at all. this last month has just flown by so fast that i don't know where i am lol

My LF was 37% when i started my i.v's and on Monday it was at 44% so that is great news at only a week in, hope it is up at 46% by Monday coming! my wight was 54.2kg when i started and on Monday it was at 56kg!!! i think that is wrong. they had moved them for a start as they were painting the LF room so i wonder if that has anything to do with it at all and I'm not sure its the normal one that i use so that too could make a diff and because when i got home and weighed myself mine said 55kg. we will see what they say on Monday coming.

Its Connors birthday in 3 weeks and 3 days!!!!! wow i cant get over the fact that my little baby is 2! he will be at school before i know it.

His new thing at the moment is Toy Story so we have got him a Buzz Light-Year for his birthday along with tons of other stuff....i may have gone a bit over the top but he is only 2 once right :D

I have been reading at lot this last month, read all 4 books from the Twilight saga and The Host book (Humans become hosts for these invaders, their minds taken over while their bodies remain intact and continue their lives apparently unchanged) and a book called Mummy Said The F Word! all very good books, i have ordered 2 more books from Amazon and they should be here in the new few days.

The old coal shed in our garden is getting pulled down on Monday so i cant wait for that to get started! i will take photos and put the up, along with some of Connors new room and ours and some of Connor himself! :D

Anyway i must get off as this hot weather is to hot to just sit about in. i need to find my fan....

* I have put some labels on this post...not sure i have done it right but we will see *
