Emilie and Laura in the Zoo Mobile... little hugh had his pusher for a ride!!
How is that heat??? We arrived home, a day later then first expected. It was just too hot to continue pulling the kids through the heat, so we spent another day in Paringa with Jack's parents. So home late Wednesday and just catched up jobs yesterday and finally had a chance to pop in and update now!!
First of all.. WW update.. another loss of 300 grams - so now weigh 67kg. Very happy with this as I would have also been holding a little fuild when I weighted last night - it was still 38 at 6.30 last night. So.. it goes with out saying that I pretty much behaved while away! I chose very wisely and the only time that I would have gone over my points would have been the last couple of days home with in-laws. No excuses... just ate more!!!
We had a FANTASTIC time in Adelaide... Emilie hasn't stopped talking about it since! Loved sleeping in the tall building.. first bus rides... first time to the Zoo... they where so funny. Spent a little time in Mildura on the way home and I am so impressed with the new shopping centre... has everything!
Talking about shopping centres, at the WW meeting last night the weigher was telling us how in the hot weather she has seen mothers walking there babies in prams through the shopping centres when it has been so hot... so just a little tip for some... too hot to walk outside.. cut laps of your shopping centre!
A bit annoyed wiht WW at the moment - we haven't received of Eat More, Think More books - they just haven't sent them to our leader!! So I think I am going to ring to complain!! Maybe that will get them in the mail!
Mother in law is talking about joining... I really hope that she does. I think I have said before that she did WW in the 80's when it was really hard.. so I ithink she will find it a hell of a lot easier!
I went frock shopping while away and fell in love with a coffee coloured dress.. little hard to describe.. so I will post a photo shortly... but Mother in law brought me some new shoes for my birthday to go with it!! Very spolit!
Didn't really buy much else... Jack a pair of Rodd & Gunn jeans.. kids a few bits, but it really just was a holiday. Once (3 sizes ago) I would buy anything just becasue it was on sale.... even if it didn't really fit that well... but I think I have a different approach to clothes now.. they NEED to fit!! And maybe I don't need as many clothes!!
As you would all know (if you turn on the TV) we have very bad bush fires in the Grampians. Jack was called up to go today (CFA member) but they called him late last night to say to hold off and will be needed over the weekend... so will just sit and wait and pray for rain. Ester.. hope that your family property is safe!!
Hope everyone else is great! I will get through all of blogs today to back read... so much can happen in a week!!!

Your sweet to think of me! Yes, we are fine here, you can smell smoke in the wind and the sky has that eerie glow to it though. We are a fair distance from anything really scary. Its strange hearing about all these places that have been devastated, and they are only an hour or so away! There was a header that caught on fire not far from here on wednesday night, that was a bit of a worry - luckily it was under control quickly. I hope that all is well down your way, and that this horrible weather finishes soon.
Love est xox
Sounds like you had a lovely time - yay! And well done on your loss - how clever you are to lose after a holiday - great stuff!
I'm an espresso too apparently :)
Glad you had a good holiday and well done on being so good! I was very naughty on my holiday but luckily only gained a half kilo and it seems to be going now.
As for this heat, yech. I'm over it!
Sounds like you had a great time away:)
We can smell smoke from here - and he CFA sirens go off all the time, hopefully the rain has helped!
Good to hear you had a great holiday. I am glad you liked our Shopping Centre in Mildura, best thing to happen in this town for a while. :)
Welcome home... glad to have you back. Great to hear that you had a wonderful holiday and well done on a loss after a holiday - that is awesome!
sounds like u had a fabulous holiday :)
& how good were you to loose weight after holiday, good stuff girl :)
Can't wait to see this coffee coloured dress, Ms Espresso!
And well done on reaching 67 - that's awesome!
Glad you are back - how cool are those kiddy cars. We needed to get three when we were there and boy were they hard to push by the end. But great fun all the same.
Well done for not going mad on the shopping. This journey definitely changes some things.
Congrats on your loss. That is excellent considering you were on holidays. Hope you have another brilliant week this week :D
Hi, I found you through KateyPie and a few other blogs that I have seen you comment on.
I think you look absolutely terrific!
Looking forward to reading much more.
