Happy Birthday Doggies!

Amazingly and randomly, Girdler and Harley share a birthday, 2 years apart! This year I decided to make them a doggie birthday cake, just for a bit of fun. The cake was made with peanut butter, flour, egg and milk, and iced with mashed potato with food colouring. They loved it =D

Crafternoon Tea Party – Scrappy Framed Photos

4 Months Old

My baby boy is getting so interesting now! He is grabbing and holding objects, doing crunches (wanting to sit up), squawking a lot, taking swimming lessons and going to gymbaroo. During tummy time he brings his knees in but can’t yet coordinate the arms at the same time. He has tried some “solids” (watery soup [...]

{Point & Shoot} Making Headbands

Yesterday I felt bored and unsettled, unproductive and lazy. Yuk. I knew the only way the remedy the situation was to make a list of things to do, get off my butt and do them. So I re-potted a plant, I baked some brownies, sewed some nappy boosters, and started making headbands for next weekends [...]
