It really has been too long since my last post, I apologise! We've not been up to an awful lot; mainly getting over a stomach bug, sleepless nights, early mornings, a little sewing, a little knitting and a lot of family fun. I'm really enjoying being a mum, Hattie is such a lovely baby (most of the time!), very smiley, very noisy (shouting at 5am most mornings that it's time to get up and play!) and an all round cutey! Here we are at the zoo at the weekend.

I'm wearing my new glasses! (I went for a nice purpley plastic frame this time) and Hattie is in here sling looking not-at-all-impressed with the whole thing! Poor munchkin. We had a really nice day out with our friends and their kids.

I have been sewing. I'm working my way through the solar system for Jen - only the small planets to finish then I can embroider their names round them all. I've made a few ribbony-tag-blankety-things ready for listing in my etsy shop this week - they are going to be $16 (about £10). I've got a few more (more girly ones) ready to have ribbon picked and pinned once the planets are finished! Hattie loves to play with hers, it's the toy we take everywhere with us and possibly the best thing I've made for her so far! I'm hoping to have finished photos of the planets for you by the weekend so be sure to pop back! Bye for now *waves*
