Miscellany Monday- What has been on my mind

Dominique Thoughts

I came across this meme while on a blog hop and will be joining in with my piece this Monday.

1. Little girls really have the cutest clothes.

   They have matching bibs with their rompers and ultra fashionable mini skirts with beautiful floral prints.  Riona is very fortunate to have been  given many beautiful pieces of clothings from doting grandparents, friends and relatives. I do not need to buy her any new clothes till after her 1st birthday.

   

2. You need a million dollars to raise a kid.

   Multiply that by 3 and add 2 for both you and hubby. That will equal 5 million dollars for our existing family size. It is mind boggling  looking at the number of zeros involved and how far we are from that ideal number. However difficult this uphill task is we will still try to provide for our kids to the best of our ability.

3. Weight loss is the ” in thing” .

   
   Many of my girlfriends have started on their weight lost routine. Many of them are hoping that they will be able to fit into their pre-marriage clothes and go back to the weight and shape they were at when they were an eighteen year old. Some of them have lost 10kg and are working their way to a 20kg lost.My personal aim is to be able to fit back into my wedding dress for our 10 year anniversary ( was able to wear the dress 2 years back after baby #2 so there is no excuse that I will not able do so after baby #3 now).I have lost most of the  baby weight ( left with 3 kg) and have 19kg to go back down to my ideal.I target to achieve about a 2-4kg weight lost per month if possible with a range of diet and exercise routines. Now at 6 weeks post baby I am down by 6kg and am hoping to  fit back into my jeans by Christmas if possible.
