Stuff we do.

June 21, 2012 by

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 […]

Night out. All of us. Nearly.

June 9, 2012 by

We went to a wedding tonight, the first time we’ve all been at a social event in longer than I can remember. It was nice. I like weddings and this was a lovely one. I’m hopeless at small talk and I hate dressing up but a baby solves both those problems and at least now […]

Test post.

Move along. Nothing to see here. Well okay. Apart from a very cute baby being a flickr tester for me.

Think happy thoughts.

March 26, 2012 by

Very important to remember that even with very bad days indeed, things are still better than they were. No Freddie but Ben is much better than no Freddie and no Ben. ‘Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind. Or forgotten. We’re broken, but still good.’ Oh, the wisdom of Disney 😉

Daffodils at WedEd

March 16, 2012 by

Wednesday this week marked a a big improvement in things generally. Not only was I able to drive myself to WedEd or the first time since having Ben but he was also manageable enough for me to be able to get on with being part of the educational offerings again.So this week I brought “Daffodils” […]

366 photo challenge

February 24, 2012 by

I’ve been trying to log a photo a day (not hard with 5 gorgeous bits of subject matter in the house!) this year. My attempts, such as they are since I only use my phone, are over at merrilyme and I’m liking having a snap shot of the days of the year so far. This […]

Christmas to now.

January 6, 2012 by

I seem to have bloggers block, that and a frantic nesting and knitting and ipad-ing habit 🙂 We’ve been busy though, and mostly happy, though I am finding it harder and harder to maintain any sort of sanity in the face of impending birth of baby. Still, with a maximum of 5 weeks to go […]

Hello baby

November 24, 2011 by

Trying not to think too hard about the fact that stress can harm an unborn child. Its been a stressful few days. Somehow I’m booked on a section list. That wasn’t quite what I meant to happen and now that I am, I am deeply sure that is not how I want this baby to […]

Halloween Pom Pom & Window Art

October 31, 2011 by

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 […]
