Look what was waiting for me when I returned from the Isle of Wight yesterday – my lovely new Cath Kidston iphone cover. It’s almost perfect, the only part I don’t like is that it’s branded with the Cath Kidston logo on the inside – thankfully it can’t be seen when it’s on!
The Gallery: Self Portrait
I hate being photographed. I’m not sure when it started, but when I was looking through all the photos I’ve taken of Edward since he was born I realised there were only a couple of us together. Over the next few weeks I will rectify this. In honour of the theme of this week’s gallery:…
Home and away
We’ve returned home to London for a couple of days and are now back on the Isle of Wight as my husband has an appointment with his consultant tomorrow. Since we’ve been at home it has finally been just the two us as my husband has gone back to work and we’ve had a couple…
Dummy or not?
A couple of weeks ago I went to Mothercare to purchase a dummy clip. I know that people are divided on the issue of whether to give a child a dummy but we find it useful to help settle Edward at night. We are only planning on using it until Edward is 3 months old….
The Gallery: Week 11
The theme for The Gallery this week is: Men. Pictures of the men in your life. There are two men in my life, my lovely husband and brand new baby boy. In the short time since he was born (7 weeks!) I have managed to take more photographs of the baby than my husband during…
The Gallery: Week 10
It’s taken me a while to come up with a picture for this weeks’ The Gallery. I have spent ages looking through my albums. The theme was to paint a picture of the world we live in: The hidden bits, the bits you feel are special and people should know about. The bits people wouldn’t…
Cath Kidston iphone case
Easy Living magazine had a choice of two Cath Kidston bags with this months issue. I never buy the magazine but did today-just for the bag. I chose the pop flowers print and have already used it to carry nappies and bottles for a trip out today! The magazine also has a 15% voucher for…
The Gallery: a portrait
My contribution for this weeks The Gallery over at Sticky Fingers is this portrait I took of my husband and son yesterday. My poor husband has recently been discharged from 2 weeks in hospital where he underwent an emergency operation for an abcess in his bowel. He’s recovering well but it’s been hard for him…
Clean washing
Who would have thought a 6-week old could make so much mess? In a typical day Edward seems to go through at least one clothes change, 8 muslins, 3 bibs and a mattress fitted sheet. We also learnt today that certain brands of bib melt in the tumble drier. Oops. Life has calmed down enough…
