7/8th 40 fabulous, big love

When I came down stairs in the mnorning - Pug had decorated the kitchen for me.

My yummy bday cake, brownie meringue rasperry cream yumminess.....not the most flattering fotie of me, but look at Archie's beautiful smile - he'd been asking for b-day cake all day!

My gorgeous flowers from Chris and Hilary, LOVE them. x Today we had a lovely morning with Antony, Kirsty and wee Peggy at 'Potter about', ate great brunch and kids played happily (thank goodness). Sadie is sitting on her grandma and grandad's mantlepiece in a beautiful wee blouse I bought months ago and have been waiting for her to grow into. She is v excited about it as you can see.....hmmm think sitting up high is more exciting than what she is wearing. I had a lovely meal tonight with my lovely man, and watched movie - great finish to a great weekend.

6th may, busy busy busy

Archie and I started the day by making cakes - he licked the bowl/spoon......I ate the cake.

Miss P had on a beautiful dress she was given by her Auntie Geraldine, its the 1st time shes worn it - I think it goes really well with the wee green cardi Grandma knitted.

Look at those eyelashes!

My wee love having a bath in the sink, she loves it and it means I'm forced into cleaning up the floor!!!

day 5 - mummy at work, yuck.

I had to go into work today.....mornings are hectic trying to get out the house. I miss the kids during the day, but it passes so quickly. Last week I did 3 days and felt quite sad that by the 3rd morning Archie was shouting for Daddy when he woke. So I thought It'd be nice to have a picture of mummy and Sadie, however daddy took the photos and they are no that braw.

Miss P is wearing a cute little green gingham dress, what you can't see is the adorable denim shorts underneath. She also had on her brothers converse with flames up the side! Daddy insists they fit, mmmmm I think she'll look like a clown, I'll reserve judgment till I see them. 40th bday celebrations started early with a half tub of our old pals Ben and Jerry xxxx

day 4 - mummy needs to make some braw bibs!

My wee darling is wearing a braw dress I made for her, in fact - the hardest things i've made, not saying much as I aint the best sewer. However, it can't be seen due to manky bib.....hanging off her and her sun hat that she kept on for all of 2 mins. I must make her some bibs - BLW means they need to be sleeved, long and basically a hazmat suit. I will post pictures of her in the frock minus the bib at a later date button holes ( my new talent mmmmm) bit of dugs dinner, but buttons are courtesy of Auntie Anna from knitting groups Old Auntie's stash - Thanks Anna's Auntie.

Retro day 3

As i put Miss Sadie's shoes away last night I asked myself......Can a girl ever have too many shoes?

This gorgeous wee dress was a pressie from GG, she got it from our local (charity) shop.

It is so adorable, I love the print and the retro vibe - I'm sure it is similar to ones I had as a wee one.

If you look closely you might see the filth she got all over the front of it when she did her commando crawl across the floor at tuesday club. We had a lovely time, quiet this week, but great to welcome a new mummy and Baby Macy. X

2nd may another sunny one

We had a lovely day in the sun again today, the morning was spent at the park with Kirsty and a few of her brood and then aft at Uncle Paul's house.

Today's photos aint great, I took them in the garden and the sun was in madams eye's - I was also trying to stop brother from pushing her over. She is wearing her new Pinny - which matches her cousins, our fave wee jeans and cool boots from Auntie Mo mo.

Auntie Mo mo arrived at teatime to bring us these amazing new shoes for Miss P - they are now the new fave, Thanks Auntie Mo mo for keeping up the best shoe tradition - LOVE them.

Miss Sadie P's fashion month of may......

back due to popular demand, Miss P. I struggled to find an outfit to start of the fashion month of may due to weather. It was our 1st day in the garden of the year, so nice. I tidied up and planted out all the seedlings, fingers crossed we get a bumper crop. The kids loved the sun and both were nakey most of the day - Archie all day. I did dress Sadie for a wee while though. She is wearing a 0-3 outfit bought for her last summer! So a big thanks to Cousin Sammy, 10 months on and it fits.

I've been making a few wee things, as has grandmum - so keep checking in. x
