I *heart* schuh

I love going into Schuh and I've just spent a very happy 30 minutes or so drooling over their website at lovely things like this ...

Which are not a tad unsimilar to a pair of very gorgeous boots I used to own.

I was supposed to be looking for 'sensible' boots having slipped on slimy, muddy paths twice in the last 3 days but got sidetracked by pretty boots instead. There are lots of pretty, pretty boots *sigh*

Gnashers

We have teeth!!! Not A tooth, no not just one single tooth, we have 2 teeth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



The first one came through nearly 2 weeks ago on 6 Nov and we only had one night where the wee man woke up crying for about 45 mins and then the second one appeared on yesterday morning, at exactly 25 weeks old! No crying during the night but he was really unsettled and grumpy on Monday afternoon - no wonder! Can't complain though, my wee star is still sleeping through :)

Iwantthatone!!!


It's a new contraption thingy-ma-jig that when you put on the headset, concentrate you can raise the ball in the tube!!!! A definite must for all would be Jedi masters.

Where has the time gone recently? It's now the middle of november, I'm a whole year older than the last time I blogged anything and the wee man is almost 6 months old! And it's only been 2 weeks since I blogged!!?!?

Must get myself more organised and blog more frequently. So much is going on and changing that if I don't then I'm going to forget way too much.

And I'm back!

Finally normal(ish) service is resumed :) I only had a cold for a week but I feel like I've lost at least a month, it's taken me so long to get caught up with things .... and there a still a few things to be taken care of this week, like 2 circle journals still sitting upstairs undone. I did intend to start them on Sunday but got slightly distracted by a small quilt which needed some attention! Oops, that is nearly finished though, just got the binding to do and then back to playing with paper and not material. Honest, guv!

Talking about lovely material I bought these two lots of Amy Butler fabric at the end of September and only just got round to giving them a press yesterday



I'm not 100% about the brown/pink material in the first pic, love the brown/orange ones just not sure if the other 2 really fit. But I am totally LOVING the christmas ones - just need to have a good think about what to make with it now. Even saw some really nice christmas decorations in B&Q yesterday that would go with these fabrics, loving green and white baubles and things. Very pretty, not too girly, not too sparkly, just lovely. Got an excuse to decorate the house a bit more this year too!!

Cough, splutter, cough

I'm feeling yucky :(

Normal service will hopefully be resumed shortly.
