Well, the title says it all: this is fast becomming a weight-loss blog! Today was weigh-in day and I shed an other 2lbs. This brings me down to 14stone 9lbs. Which still means I'm a fatty but just not as fatty as I was. Still a long way to go, but now that I've started I should be okay. And 14'9 was my target for the end of July, so, as long as I don't start going mad, I should - should! - stay on target ("Stay on target!" [Star Wars reference]) for the end of the month.
Wish me luck!
Other things. Well, the twins. Things have been pretty good for a while now. We've all been getting along fine - including the toddler, who I've been making a special effort for (I was worrying about spending too much time with the twins and not enough with the toddler). It's no secret (if you've been reading my blog) that there were days when I could have walked (ran?) away and never looked back. Never would have, but the temptation was a common one. But today was a particularly good day. Sometimes all you have to do is see a baby smile. It's even better when the baby is your own. And it's better still when there are two of them. But it truly is the best when they're both smiling... and they're smiling because of you (you being me, obviously). Of course, they've been smiling for ages now, but today has been something of a smiley day all round. And that sort of day can get you through the worst of days.

Life is pretty good. Mind you, the school holidays have really only just begun!
Bye bye.
