Light and fluffy. Light and fluffy. Must try harder. If this 8 seconds of video doesn’t make you smile, I don’t know what will 🙂 This is Bene in his new Stokke Sleepi. There is no way we could have afforded this – he would have had a travel cot – but we were gifted […]

A head filled with heavy nothing.
Oh dear. No blogging. We’ve actually been having a good time, if you count charging around like loons a good time. I could write lots of posts filled with interesting stuff. I will do. But not here. If you read my other blog (and thank you to the people who do and commented, I really […]
Where'd the Bene go? Here he is :)
Gratuitous boy pics. You know you want them. He looks a bit bigger in that blanket these days. Did I mention we all completely love him? He rolled today, proper rolled with arm out from under and head up. Rolling and sitting in a week.
Further Tudor Doll Costume Merriment.
I’ve been enjoying watching a real change in my girls over the last few days. Amelie and Josie have both really persisted at sewing Tudor clothes for their Groovy Girl dolls and have got better and better as they went along. Both sewed gather petticoats in jersey fabric (idea for a doll, falls really nicely) […]
Blogging like the old days.
The girls want o make Tudor costumes. Normal practise is to make rough versions first and get the hang of it. I thought we needed to start very small; groovy girl small. Rather to my surprise, Josie has managed amazingly well. She’s completed, all on her own and with increasing neatness, a petticoat with waistband […]
A day in the past.
Try to remain calm… We left the house, all of us, in one go. We went somewhere. We had a nice time. Miracles! Lots of our friends have started doing Tudor reenactment at Kentwell Hall. You might think we would be dead certs for this, I certainly have always wanted to do something of the […]
More Sport Hama Bead Designs & Home Ed Life.
So the Olympics are coming and my sporty girls have entered into the spirit it and helped me get some Hama Bead patterns together. They’ve been very creative and we’ve put a free set of ideas (I’ve lost my design disk… again 🙁 ) on BeadMerrily for Hama Bead enthusiasts. There are a few Maddy […]
When I was just a little boy…
Dear Ben, You are 5 months old. You are part of us. You have been here long enough that your sisters don’t always want to marvel over you and sometimes want to hand you back. This is amazing; I hope you will never know how amazing. This month they have forgiven the world enough not […]
Coming up for air. Breastfeeding amendments.
A few days ago I admitted defeat over exclusive breast feeding. It hasn’t really worked for Bene and I all that well; he has gained weight brilliantly (he’s over 16lbs at just short of five months, which given he was 5 1/2 lbs at one point is quite impressive) and he sleeps all night which […]
Finished it Friday: Ben's Cardigan
I fear I left it too long with this one. I started it when he was a few weeks old and got distracted, thought it wouldn’t matter because he was so small and then he got huge through doing all the feeding that stopped me knitting and now this is clearly only going to fit […]
