Thank you so much Bron! I surprisingly slept like a log last night (except when I had to get up for bubs). Feeling nice and refreshed today!

See you on the flip side!

Re: My Story.... and progress pics!

Heya Bron! :-1

Nice to see you got your pics up! :) I have no idea how to use Photobucket, so I'm not much help sorry. It took me about 2 hours to figure out how to upload mine! :lol:

Looking forward to following your progress and seeing your 'toothy pegs' fall into place!
