We’ve got visitors coming again this weekend and as ever, seats and beds are the biggest problem. The trouble with having 6 bottoms that already need seating and sleeping in a not very big house is that there isn’t an awful lot of room for overspill… and these days the girls aren’t quite so keen […]

I have achieved nothing for a week.
All this boy does is eat…. Eat… Eat! So humour me and be impressed by these photos in lieu of the many things I would like to say… Then vote for me in the MADs (button on the right!) and say hello on the DKL blog so they think I’m doing my job 🙂 How […]
Finished it Friday: Crocheted Bag.
I wanted to have another go at something felted in Adriatic felting yarn. So far I’ve been disappointed with this wool felted though and happy with it when crocheted. Having had a book for my birthday with some east projects in it, I decided to give a simple clutch bag a go. The bag itself […]
Baby got blue eyes.
Dear Ben, Today you are 4 months old. You love to stand, you talk to us in your baby ‘ah goooooo’ language. You watch, you copy, you dribble. You feed, all day, every day With. Out. Stopping. You are huge, considering the baby you are. You are twisting and turning and trying to turn over, […]
Things I learned this week.
In no particular order other than for dramatic and needy, pimping effect. Adults don’t always get nits from their children. Sometimes they get them from somewhere else and that’s actually worse. I can’t tell you how much I hate not being able to roll my eyes and blame it on a small girl. If your […]
Right Where I Am: 2 years, 2 months.
When I joined in with this project last year, I was tottering on the brink of utter despair. I wrote my entry on the cusp month between the end of Freddie’s time and the beginning of Ben’s time. That single month that was left before I found out I was pregnant again. It was feeling […]
Yellow Bird; that mummy and baby thing. And home ed.
I’ve got a 4 month post coming because I think it is time to stop counting in weeks. But one last time. He’s 17 weeks and he is so big and so changed and so different and utterly adorable. In the rare moments when he does stop feeding, what he likes more than anything is […]
And now she is 14.
My big girl, my biggest girl, is 14. Max and I have spent quite a lot of the evening saying this in awe. 14. Wow. And she looks so beautiful in that picture too, growing into the young woman she is becoming. She feels like a young woman, another adult in the house really. A […]
Klimt's The Kiss.
Let’s move on to something a little nicer. Remember we were looking at this? Over Friday and the weekend we thought we would have a go at a representation of this picture in…. Hama beads! And here is the finished article. Rather a good piece of collaborative art we thought 🙂 What I loved about […]
So that was nice.
This week has been an interesting one and rather unpleasant too. Firstly I managed to put my back out standing up out of a chair, then I discover I have nits… And worse ONLY I have nits. So I must have got them at cybher. Ha. That’s taking free gifts too far. Then today I […]
