Well so much for writing lots...

I haven't been on here forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lot's has happened since the last time, I'm now married, we went on our honeymoon and Jackson is now 2!
The wedding was awesome, time definitely does fly like everyone told me it would and now there definitely are bits and pieces that I don't so much remember! Hehehe still hard to believe that I'm now a married woman! How crazy!!!!!!!!
We went on our honeymoon at Easter, down round the Catlins (awesome place) and over to Te Anau where we based ourselves while spending a day at Milford Sound and a day at Doubtful sound! Not sure which we liked better - Milford Sound: we drove in ourselves so it was all done in our own time apart from meeting the boat of course and was great cos we could stop wherever and whenever we wanted, Doubtful Sound: we were on a tour with strangers for 8 hours and anyone that knows us knows we can both be quite shy so yeah was still awesome though and so glad we did it cos I got to see Manapouri where Dunc was working when we first met!
Just had a really small lunch type party for Jacksons birthday with both sets of grandparents and Kathleen, Andrew and Aden! I made his cake - go me - not bad for a first attempt and very very yummy it even had mock cream in the middle! Was so pissed off at him when everyone started arriving cos he had found the cake on top of the freezer in the laundry and had opened the container and was picking off all the pebbles and trying to eat the whole thing in one go I think but thankfully he didn't do too much damage!
I'm a bit antsy today, decided today is the day that I stop smoking so I'm now officially a non-smoker, feel a wee bit panicky when I say that but I'm sure I'll get there, positive thinking and all that! I've done it before I can do it again and forever this time!
Trying trying trying for another baby - it's a very frustrating process that's for sure, we thought it would happen really quickly but noooooooo its taking a wee while! And Dunc has major issues with the whole 'having to do it at a certain time of the month' so I not much of a happy camper at the moment! Just gotta keep thinking it'll happen when it happens, so giving up smoking will hopefully help (was gonna give up as soon as I got a positive test), gonna get out there exercising and eat healthy!
What is up with the friggen metservice, useless buggers they are, Dunc stayed up half the night waiting for it to snow but definitely no snow here grrrrrr, was so looking forward to letting Jackson out in it to play, he'd love it!

AAAAaaaargh why so early!

OMG, it's 5.52am, what a strange time to start a blog I hear you say! Jackson (my wee man 22 months old) fell out of his bed at 5.09am and after calming him down then trying to get him to go to sleep with Dunc and I we gave up and now Dunc is fast asleep and I'm here talking to a computer screen while Jackson sits in his highchair by the fire eating toast! Ah the life of a toddler aye!
I've been talking about doing this forever and for some reason have had no guts - I guess it's a little bit the fear of the unknown??? I like to waffle so I guess really this is the best place for me!
I was going to do a weightloss one but the weightloss happened and I still never started this, only lost about 6.8kg all up but hey thats something and I'm really kicking myself for not measuring myself when I started cos I've lost a fair few inches that's for sure...and the reason I'm not continuing actively to try is we're getting married in less than a month, I go to pick up my dress on Friday so yeah they're probably already going to have to do alterations to it and I don't want it falling down on me on the day cos it's strapless haha!
Hmmmm how many people can I bore with mindless dribble at once:)
Oh and the fire thing, its supposed to be real hot at the moment, well usually February is but man, it's like winter, it's currently 6.1 degrees outside - that is NOT a summer temperature!!!!!!!Where did summer go and is it coming back is one big question in my head! I'm the first to admit that I hate with a passion really hot weather but winter in Feb is kinda ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!
Must disappear now, Jackson has thrown his toast on the ground so time for fruit then whatever the day brings I guess:)
