a long awaited hello

Hello blogging world,
I have been very absent recently. Sorry about that. Life can get a bit crazy and wonderful sometimes!!!
I dont know if any of you saw last week but I blogged about a little competition on A ditchin' time Quilts blog. Guess who the lucky winner was...... ME :) woo hoo

I now have this cute little needle book on the way in the mail, thanks steph!

I have had lots of fun this last week making up a baby shower / new baby gift package!! Its not quite finished yet so I will post picture's later. So far it consists of a nappy wallet with built in change matt, bib, dummy leash/clip, burp cloths and a really beautiful blanket made of minky and cotton!!


On the kids front Zoe has started using her potty!!!! Hooray. I have not been pressuring her to do so but everynow and then reminding her that it was there. She would go do her business on it but still with her nappy on :s Funny girl. But she finally over came her stage fright yesterday. Proudly ripped her nappy off and ran for it!!!  I think she was just as proud of the accomplishment as I was <3


Tyler on the other hand has started climbing furniture and standing up :s And now the fun begins hahaha. I was really hoping he would hold off on doing that for a little longer but he had other plans. He also got his first tooth yesterday!!


Sweet Blossoms Handmade has taken off in the last week!!! We are now currently working on seven custom orders!! Consisting of a mixture of tooth fairy pillows, nappy clips, hats, aprons, nappy wallets, bibs, TUTU's and a few other things.


Dont forget that Corinne and I will be participating in WAHM delights market night!!! Corinne has gotten her item already up ( im a bit slow :P )  and its a gorgeous elephant hat!!!!  Please go and have a look.


Well that me for the morning, Im off to clean my house and get back to sewing.


Please if you have any suggestions of anything else I can add to my baby packs please drop me a line or leave a comment bellow ;)

Growing up

I had to share a total proud mum moment with you!!! My baby has started preschool today!!! I'm just soo happy for her and excited and a little sad. It's all going by soo fast and right now im a big bundle of mixed emotions. She will always be my baby <3

She looks a little worried

But then she realised and was SUPER excited

FIRST PERSON TO CORRECTLY GUESS WHAT THE NEW PRODUCT LINE WILL BE WINS THE FIRST ONE I MADE!!! (and it came out pretty good if i do say so myself ;) )

That's right folks, summer is finally here!!! (although you wouldnt be able to tell from where I am all windy and rain :(  )
And with summer comes the holiday season. And being the first of december I did what most of you probably did today, put up my christmas tree!! It's soo exciting, but I'll tell you what I have never had as much fun putting up a tree as i have had tonight! My girl is a bit over 2 and this was her first time doing and she was soo excited and cute. Whenever she would put a star on the tree she started singing twinkle twinkle <3 I can not wait to have christmas this year when she will be fully aware of whats going on, what's christmas without the innocent and happiness of a child?!
    Anyway here is a few photos from tonight endevours, and tomorrow i shall be putting up a few new recipes I'm trying out as its baking day! Hooray for baking day!

My girl. And yes she is wearing our tree skirt as a cape
trying to turn me into a frog with her wand lol

Wanting soo desperately to put the star on
the tree

My black and silver christmas tree :D

Hope you all had a great first day of summer
