!! All done at last! My next project has no backstitch at all, Thank goodness! WIll be showing an update soon!
Hope ya'll have a lovely Sunday :-)
Managed to get this little fairy stitched over the last 2 days, have also sorted threads for my next project which I'm looking forward to as it has NO backstitch!!
Will do some backstitch on my Lighthouse tomorrow, so it hasn't been totally abandoned!
Yippee!
OK I'm pretty shy about this being a Plus size lady, and my Bump is not going to be pretty!
But....
For those who asked, heres what Jelly bean is like today, at 13+3 weeks.
Am feeling great at the moment and am walking a lot! Have bags of energy all of a sudden and really enjoying it all!
Off to hang washing out in the sunshine!
Yay! I'm 13 weeks, that means I'm in my 2nd Trimester! This is suddenly feeling very real!
I'm "feeling" more pregnant now, have ordered a steriliser (That was on sale) and have pretty much picked the travel system I want ( Mum and Dad are buying us that)
I only have a small bumpage at the moment, but its very hard to the touch when I cough, so its defo "bump" and not blubber!
On the subject of blubber I put a little weight on just after the wedding, only 4lbs, but have lost it again :-) So am happy to report that my total weight loss this year is still 30lbs, haven't gained a pregnancy ounce, YET!
I haven't been sticking to my Weightwatchers plan either, I just simply haven't felt like being greedy, haven't binged and haven't felt like big portions, long may it last!
Back to work tomorrow, I'm expecting that will hit me like a brick!
Oh and here is my Lighthouse project so far, I've finished all the actual cross stitch now, just have to add all the backstitch.YUK! 
I was hoping to make a start on it yesterday, but ended up going to the Golf driving range with the boys instead!
Off for a lovely bubbly bath!
Have a nice Sunday!
Spot the Difference!
Hello Folks!! Long time no hear eh!
Well I haven't been too well to be honest. As always it was great visiting Weymouth, its' like my 2nd home with my Nan, Auntie and cousins all living there for years, so we always visited them, usually at Easter and during the Summer holidays when we were kids. It has such fond memories for me.
Unfortunately, my problems began on our first night, when we arrived, after Midnight.
We stayed in my Aunties house, while she went to stay with my cousin, this was so kind of her, especially as it involved putting her 2 beloved cats into a cattery for 4 days.
But, as I found out, the cats lingered, even whilst gone! And I ended up having Chronic asthma for 4 days and ended up in hospital being put on a Nebuliser!
Sadly meant that I had to miss out on a trip to the beach as my Asthma was that bad, I would have never made the steep steps :-(
Was such a pity as I love the place so much, it was also terribly frightening as I have never suffered badly with Asthma and literally gasping for breath all the time was just awful.
It was no-ones fault, and heck, I have a cat myself, so who could know! But hers are long haired cats which obviously makes a difference ( I already know I'm allergic to hamster fur)
Luckily, apart from a lingering cough, I've been much much better since we arrived home, and have been catching up on my sleep!
Have also re-started my SAL Lighthouse project, The picture is just a reminder of how much like Portland Bill lighthouse it looks!
I've nearly finished all the sky stitching now, hoping I will have finished by the weekend, then just have the backstitch to tackle, will post an update on Sunday.
Apart from that I have no news!
Hope everyone in Blogland is doing well!
Love Wendy ( And 12 week Jellybean!)
..x..
Thats exactly how I feel just now!!! Everything is going so fast and I'm so busy!!
After the Wedding I practically slept for the whole day on Sunday.Think it was just the relief and relaxation finally flooding over me, I felt like I had been drugged! Poor New Hubby spent the day doing the 5 loads of washing I should have done, while I was flat out, drooling on the couch! ( Bet he was having second thoughts!!)
Monday we took Ryan out to his beloved Golf driving range and I caught up with Carmel, Then Yesteray was my Birthday, 36, Arrrraaaggghhhh!!!! Where does the time go! I was so excited ( Bit like a 5 year old on Christmas Morning!)because the first card I opened was " To my wonderful wife!" It felt a bit weird but so so good!! Am totally head over heels in Love just now and REALLY enjoying the fact that Frank has a week off so we can go to bed at the same time! Woo hoo! ( FYI Frank works permanent Night shifts so its' usually me sleeping with Bess,the cat!)
Got Lovely Cards and presents ( Thanks Shellie!)unfortunatly had to be at the hospital for 10am to see the endocrinologist Consultant.Boo hiss! As I have an underactive Thyroid I have to be monitered throughout pregnancy, like every 4 weeks :-( So I guess the hospital will be my 2nd home!
After 1 1/2 hours in hospital I then had to go and sort out one of my 2 banks,This is just the start of the fun, getting my name changed on everything! Had to wait for AGES to be seen and get sorted out :-( Yes I DID pick the day the ATM's were not working!
Then Dad picked up Ryan and I on his way home from work and we joined Mum for a LOVELY meal at our new fave restaurant, Damons! As I was the Birthday girl, my meal was free, AND I got a complimentary Birthday cake with sparklers in it! Ryans meal was a also free ( Kids all eat free before 7pm!) and it was 1/2 price cocktails too, so Mum, Ryan and I enjoyed 2 non-alcoholic "Bora Bora's" !! FAB!
Today I have ANOTHER busy day yyaaawwwnnnn, I have to go and change another bank account into our Joint account, and also iron tonz of clothes for our little break away, and get any last minute toiletries etc
Tomorrow Evening I'm leaving my Dearest Husband behind and flitting off for 5 days!
In True Wedded bliss style I'm going with Mum , Dad and Ryan to my Childhood 2nd home, Weymouth, to stay at my Aunties house for 5 days, We are SOooooo excited!
Before you all shout at me! Frank is due back in work Monday night, so wouldn't have been able to come for the 5 days anyhow AND he's decorating our bathroom, which is far easier when he hasn't got 7 year olds and preggo wives wanting to do a wee evey 5 minutes!
Soooo, I get a holiday and he gets to do DIY, I'm LOVING married life! lol!
( BTW, Thats why he didn't come to Damons last night, he's busy stripping the bathroom, Bless him!)
SO thats it, Up to date! Am so looking forward to this break, after all the stress and havoc of these past few weeks I deserve it huh!
And my little jellybean will be 12 weeks on Easter Sunday, another milestone out of the way :-) Phew!!
Well guys, Best Love and Leave you, I have a bank to tackle!!
Hope you all have a Fantastic Easter Break!
Wend....xxx....
Its pretty awkward at the moment with the whole pcture business. As I didn't take any (Obviously, I was in them!) I'm having to wait for Carmel and Mark to send me theirs! Hence the delay! Please bear with me!
When Mum came round today she'd brought a surprise! We were not having a wedding cake, But hey presto! This was our surprise!!
And these are the flowers, I didn't want a big huge bouquet, just a weeny thing, we made this ourselves, Mums buttonhole is to the right of the pic. The roses are actually very deep red, the camera flash makes them look bright red! 
Ok so this is likely to be my last Wendy Haysom post!! EEK!
I'm now just excited o "Do it" rather than being stressed or nervous.
Yesterday I had a fantastic time with my friend, and Maid of honour, Carmel. We shopped, BOY did we shop!!!
I bought new sunglasses, so now I look like a bug!! I'm not that much of a fan of Large glasses, but thats seems all thats "in" this year!Of course they have diamante squares on the sides! 
Carmel also bought me a bag for my birthday, This is a tradition that happens every year! She always buys me a new bag and we goto pick it :-)
Its totally covered in sequins! This is so OTT!!!!! And So VERY VERY me!!! ha ha! my Mum will have a fit when she see's it!
I am such a magpie! 
We ate at a Restaurant called Damons! Wow the food was amazing!! I had Clam Chowder for the first time, which I loved, And for Main course, Ribs and Chicken with Homemade Coleslaw and a Jacket spud. YUMM!! 
After our meal we were totally stuffed, and after much groaning, decided to shop a little more, I got a total bargain in M&S, a lovely minimiser bra that was reduced to £3.81!
Also got some Yankee Candle tarts, in "Freshly cut roses" fragrance. For those not familiar I ADORE the Yankee Candle tarts and tart burners, they smell amazing and make the house smell yummy! I have just ordered a new Tart burner and 12 tarts off the UK supplier online so eagerly awaiting their arrival, can't wait to smell my new rose tarts around the house!
When the shops closed at 8pm, we headed to a waterfront pub for a drink. It was lovely sitting outside on the riverside as the evening was pretty warm ( We have had lovely weather here the last few days!)
So I had a FANTASTIC hen evening, not a male stripper or drop of alcohol in sight! Just PERFECT for oldies like us!!
I'm so Thankful for having such a great friend who knows me inside out!
Today my Mum is coming and we are doing my Wedding flowers. OMG. I have NEVER done ANYTHING like this before so wish us luck!
Also today making sure my nail varnish, shaving, body lotions are all applied and attended to!!!
Well Thats all for Wendy Haysom !
Will be back soon as Wendy Tinsley (I hope!!)
Have a great weekend you guys, I bloody will!!
And good luck to any betters on the Grand National !
