    Our dogs used to LOVE playing with the tree, which of course, we didn't....

    Great pic, I also like that the Silent Sunday - Countdown to Christmas titles worked together to provide a caption. S/he really does look like s/he is staying put to see the full countdown through. I missed your post on your dog - is s/he with you in Cyprus or a pet from the UK?

    It does look a bit like he's plotting something! Is he waiting for you to go away before mischief is made?!

    @Jenny yes, it's Traka same dog I blogged about for the Gallery.

    @Alexander Residence, No,he passed away several years ago - cheating a little bit with old photo ;)

    @CherishedByMe I'm not that organised, it's an old photo so no presents wrapped for this year

    He was an amazingly well behaved dog,and would not have gone for the presents, he was a police dog so that might have helped - although nothing edible would have been under there!

You may have noticed a bit less in the way of blogging from me over the last couple of weeks, although this was handily disguised by Christmas the real reason can now be revealed.... Yep..... I'm pregnant! Regular readers of my blog will possibly guess this wasn't entirely planned (or even vaguely!) but 'Que Sera sera' and all that! I found out just before Christmas and although I was fairly sure as I took the test (even though one before had been negative) it was still  huge shock to see those two lines staring back at me.  People had asked if we planned to have another and my standard response was always 'No, but never say never'  Truthfully I'd always wanted two children but finances and living space was never conducive to having a bigger family.  The timing could be MUCH better, as Aaron is still looking for work, and we are struggling, and we sold Leo's cot only in November! but as several people have told us, it will all work out in the ...

My best Slimming World recipe EVER! - Cheesy Meatball Pasta Bake

Since going back to Slimming World at the start of January I've been making an effort to try some new recipes and keep varying my food every day. Although there is an endless choice when it comes to what you 'can' eat with Slimming World, like anything it's all too easy to fall into a habit of eating the same things day in and day out.  I have many SW cookbooks as well as a folder with lots of recipes that I've collected from the magazine over the years, I've actually made very few though! Last week I decided to try a new one out, and I wish I'd made it sooner! Cheesy Meatball Pasta Bake was a massive hit with the whole family and possibly one of the best main Slimming World meals I've ever made! You need... For the meatballs - 500g extra lean pork mince 6 finely chopped spring onions Dried herbs ( I used about a teaspoon each of basil and oregano) 1tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1 tbsp tomato puree For the sauce - 1 finely chop...
