Done too much !!!

I am the type person that when I have something I want to do I usually get stuck in and just like to get the job done.
Since being PG I have had to try and take a step back and its becoming very frustrating having to wait for others to have the time to help me get jobs done in and around the house. So today I had had about enough and I could no longer sit here and wait for Harry to help me with the garden... in all fairness he had planned to help me today but our stupid car went wrong and so that came first (obviously) ...... so I have spent an hour or so in the garden this afternoon moving pots and sweeping up the debris..... I feel really good at how much I actually managed to do but now I am suffering ... my back and legs are really aching.... I am gonna be stiff tomorrow !!!


As well as doing some housework including hoovering right through and washing, I also completed the week 2 challenge on UKS .... I am quite pleased with the results !!



It a LO of my Great Aunt Lil .. someone very close to my heart.

Well must go and sort out my supper..... jacket potato and bread and butter pudding for desert ... yummy !!!

Really loving this !!


It might not seem much to some but I done this LO this morning and I am really loving it ... even if I do say so myself.



The journaling around the edge reads ' I have waited for this moment all my life and finally my dream of becoming a mummy has come true. I am looking forward to meeting you and getting to know you.' And at the bottom (you can't quite see it as it didn't scan it reads ' To feel you moving about inside me is a true miracle'

I Finally Finish it !!

I have been beavering away these last few weeks on a knitted pram blanket ... I am not great knitter .. in fact I'm no expert at all but I thought I would give it a go. Well here is the result ... and I am dead chuffed about it ... it would never win any knitting prizes but for a first attempt I think its not bad ... especially as there was no pattern!!


I also finished my front cover of my Shimelle Scrap the Day challenge !! It took almost three days for the glue on the number to dry out ... the idea was to cover the glitter in the hope that the glitter doesn't rub off over time ... well there is no chance of that but using clear glue has dulled the glittery effect. Definitely must invest in some more clear accent ... probably wouldn't have taken so long to dry and the glittery shimmer would have remained ... never mind all a learning curve.


Pregnancy is going well ... had my 28 weeks bloods today and will be seeing the madwife on Monday. Littl' Blob is very active which is great.

My friend Stevie came over on Monday and took some pictures of me, bump , Harry, Bump and I and the dogs ... I am so looking forward to seeing the results of the shoot.
