Oh aren't hubby's the limit! :roll: :lol:

I honestly do think it's a lovely picture and I'm really looking forward to watching it grow :wip: , don't take any notice of him.
Infact here's some :choc: :choc: :choc: :choc: :choc: :choc: to make you feel better and tell him he's not allowed so much as a sniff of it, for his badness. :lol:
:choc: There's nothing better than a good friend, except a good friend with CHOCOLATE! :dance:
:choc: Forget love! I'd rather fall in CHOCOLATE! :wub:
