Journalling reads: When you were little, my greatest form of amusement came from dressing you up in cute little outfits and accessories. There were the bunny ears for Easter and the Halloween and Christmas outfits. But I think this was one of the craziest things I photographed you wearing - 2 little foil gift bows that I stuck on your head like horns. I guess we managed to find the only advantages to you having no hair until you were 9 months old, the bows stuck great and didn’t hurt you when we took them off. I think you looked so adorable, I only wish that you had not been crawling around so fast, maybe then I could have gotten one decent non blurry photo of you.
This blog contains the ramblings of one crazy mummy. All thoughts and opinions expressed are my own. If it offends you feel free not to read it. You will often find moans, whinges, lists of my digiscrapping purchases and even the occasional freebie. I accept no responsibility at all for any purchases that result from reading my blog lol.

Journalling reads: While we were waiting for Daddy to return all of the bowling shoes and collect the score printout, I let you and Logan play in the arcade area. You decided that once of the driving simulation games would be a great place to sit back and get comfortable!

No Hands

Font is Euphemia.
Journalling reads: You never quite know what to expect in this house, things can change completely from one minute to the next. Take these photos for example, Logan was sitting on the bed with me, and he had Leia on his lap. He was looking at her like she was the most interesting thing in the world, she was just gazing back at him and it was one of the cutest and most precious moments that I had seen between them both, so I reached over and grabbed the camera. When he saw what I was doing, he turned her around to “look for the picture” which seemed innocent and fairly sweet. Then he grinned that special Logan grin, the one that always makes me feel slightly sick, because I know it means he has thought of doing something that will almost certainly be very naughty or just plain cheeky. Then he just looked me straight in the eye as he let her go, laughed and said “look mummy, no hands”.
My 1st Swing

Journalling reads: On Sunday, we had planned a quick shopping trip followed by a visit to the Ashmoleum museum. We ended up running late and decided to leave thr museum until next weekend. Since the weather was nice we went over to the park. I thought that you might enjoy sitting in the swing. You dom’t really fit in the swing yet but your outdoor suit at least stops you falling straight through it. You didn’t seem quite sure what to make of it, and alternated between a half smile, a scowl and a look of utter confusion. It was so funny to see you trying to decide whether you liked it or not.

Westfield Grotto

Journalling reads: For Logan’s first Christmas, we took a trip to London. We were determined to visit as many of the Christmas grottos as we could while we were there. After sitting down and working out the most effective way to visit them all and working out our tube and bus routes, we started with the Westfield Shopping Centre. Sadly when we arrived, there were no available spaces to see Santa, but the 3D experience and grotto looked interesting enough to warrant a return trip later in the day, so we booked the latest time slot they had and set off for the next one on our list. It seemed like a lot of hassle, but it ended up being our favourite one of the day. Lukas loved the 3D Experience and his snowman toy from Santa.19th December 2009.
Snow Much Fun 2

Journalling reads: When we woke up to a garden full of snow, you were super excited to go and play in it. The fun started with hunting through the house for your mittens, hat and scarf. You really enjoyed leaving boot prints in the snow on the doormat and throwing snowballs at Daddy. I think your favourite parts were jumping on the snow covered trampoline and building the snowbaby with Daddy. This was only the beginning of our snow day though, we still had a trip to play in the snow at the park!

Leia In The Sling

Journalling reads: I have had slings in the past, but they didn't really get much use. But when I found the Baba Sling online I decided to buy one on Ebay to try it out. Leia loved being close to me and feeling secure and I loved having both hands free. Out of all the kids, Leia is the only one who has had any real interest in having a dummy. But for some reason when she is in the sling, she refuses to have it in her mouth, she spits it out and sucks on her thumb instead.
Looking Out The Window

Journalling reads: While Nan was in hospital, it was really hard to visit her. The boys got bored easily. But when Nan was moved into a side room because of her MRSA, it got a bit simpler. Since there was no-one else to disturb they were able to watch the television or play with their toys. But Logan's favourite thing to do was to pull over the chair and look out of the window at the cars.

Photos With Nan

Journalling reads: The photographer who took our wedding photos really wasn't very good. He didn't get any group shots or ask us what sort of photos we would like. The one thing I am greatful to him for is these photographs of us with Nan. Since she hates having her photograph taken I have very few of her alone and certainly no more than a few of us both together. I know that I will always treasure these few photographs.

Journalling reads:One of the things I was really excited about, when we found out we were having a baby girl, was buying her first wooden dolls house. I had always wanted one of my own as a kid. Hopefully this will be the first one of many.
