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 […]
Are we lucky or damn near perfect? Teenager rearing.
I reckon this post will come back to bite me on the posterior. I can nearly guarantee when in fact; I reckon I have just under 2 years before I’m holding my head in my hands and wailing ‘WHAT was I thinking?’ If it happens sooner than that, it is conclusive proof of that unwritten […]
Stuff we do.
I’ve got a post coming up sometime soon on why it’s been such a very long stream of at home days for so long and what we are doing about it, but while life has been mostly home, we’ve got on and done nice things. It’s been the mostly lovely, healing 4 months forums. We’ve […]
This Baby Likes
I’ve not had a new idea for a while but now that the fogs of the last couple of years are lifting, I’m finally starting to get that old brain back. I like new projects. I REALLY like new websites. And I wanted to make something out of all this blogging that I would be […]
Review: Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Video Sensor Monitor
You might remember that I posted a while ago about needing to move Ben into his own bed, for the sake of my sanity as much as anything. He slept in my bed on one side of a king sized mattress for the first 12 weeks or so. He’s been a really good sleeper from […]
WedEd: sewing, electromagnets (possibly) and The Listeners.
Yesterday was a good day. After a slow start my spirits soared as we came within a tiny distance of sponsoring six children in Niger, I was feeling disappointed in what I had achieved but actually, it suddenly struck me that in 3 days bloggers and readers of blogs have pledged £1700. We are going […]
Ramble ramble.
I’ve got a gazillion this to catch up on blogging wise. Oh how I miss the olden days when I could blog at 5pm each day about what we had done. I’m caught between feeling we do nothing and seeing what a huge amount actually goes on around here. There is masses of conversation ed […]
