Life, aside from being extremely busy, is very peaceful here, back into the rhythm we all find comfortable and comforting. The girls get their stuff done first thing (currently we’re doing lots of maths, verbal and non verbal reasoning, spelling, grammar games and reading practise) and then, with that done by 11am or so, we’re […]
"Look Mummy, look mummy… mummy… mummy…"
If you’ve been at home with children on a completely full time basis for as long as I have (13 years and rising), then you’ve probably developed a number of coping mechanisms by now. One of mine is tuna, mayo and sweetcorn pasta. Lunch, very quickly, with all the most important food groups in it, […]
Maxi Hama Bead Giveaway
It’s been a while since I’ve had a child in the house who wants to play with Maxi Hama Beads (3+), more is the pity, but we keep a box of them here anyway, for visiting small people or because just occasionally they hit the spot for one of the big kids in some indefinable […]
Circles
The hospital I would prefer to give birth in (actually the only one I’m prepared to give birth in) is about to be taken over by a company called Circle; in fact, it will be taken over in the same month (quite possibly the same day) that Marmite is due to be born). This is […]
Cuddle Proofed Crochet Classes
I love this little you tube crochet class on how to make a baby hat, something I’m hoping to have a go at in the next few weeks. I’ve learned lots about knitting and crochet by using video clips and the girls have used them too. I’m left handed and for some reason, I just […]
Edit: Erase: Airbrush
People don’t mean to be cruel. They don’t mean to hurt me, or us. What they want is to save us pain. It’s easy to be accidentally tactless of course, because what was like a barrel of boiled oil poured on ready flayed skin to me, is to every one else just ordinary every day […]
Finished it Friday: Knitted Scarf
I’ve gone from not quite knowing what to faff about at with knitting (and being deeply engrossed in a book series) to suddenly having lots of things that need knitting and not much time to do it in! Having concluded that my inability to make up cardigans rather inhibits clothes making, I went back to […]
25 Weeks Pregnant
*warning – baby photo at the bottom* One of the biggest changes in this pregnancy from really any other, is the difference in all the relationships surrounding it inside this house. When I was pregnant with Freddie it felt very much that the girls were aware, in a different way to they ever were when […]
Halloween Pom Pom & Window Art
Here follows a post which proves I will always be a family blogger before a nice organised mummy blogger or crafting blogger – or even a business blogger. I always end up doing crafty blogs in real time so people can come and look at them a year later 😆 Last week, a collection of […]
The Tommy's Five Point Pregnancy Campaign Round Up.
A while ago I did a blog post about the Tommy’s Campaign promoting Healthy Pregnancy. I’ve been woefully slow getting to my round up and handing out of prizes. I’m sorry about that. I’ve been needing a little more head space and a little more down time – and I made a decision to try […]
