This blog has been suffering....

And so have I! I have a cold - a nasty one - but that's not the reason that my poor blog has been so neglected. You probably know about all of the issues I've had with the latest batch of nappies, and that is taking up ALOT of my time and energy. Oh, and the fact that Nicholas has decided that sleeps are no longer necessary during the day (and often the night - but that's another story!).

Anyway, I will be updating the blog soon as there is news. For now, here are a few pics

And the winners are...

The wetbag competition has been drawn! Let me start by thanking everyone who entered - we literally had hundreds of emails and I decided that 5 wetbags weren't enough, so I'm giving away 10!!

In case you are interested in how I chose the winners, I separated emails into which pattern was chosen, and then used a true random number generator. I counted up in emais (from time received), and there you have it.

So here goes (I'm just using last initials rather than names - winners should have recieved an email from me)...

Francesca P - Bircage Autumn

Kirsten I - Birdcage Forest

Becky S - Daydream

Rebekah R - Kooky Kaleidoscope

Christine - Divine

Liv D - Divine

Lucie S - Fleur de lis

Kalita - Petal

Gabrielle P - Floriade

Stephanie D - Floriade

Congratulations ladies - you'll be the first to have a MiniLaLa wetbag! Thanks again to everyone who entered (I almost want to give you all one!)

Who wants a MiniLaLa wetbag?

Yes, you could be the first to have one! All you have to do is email me with your favourite pattern in the subject line (find the email address and available patterns on the site www.minilala.com.au )

My little baby...

Turned two yesterday... I didn't cope very well! I cannot believe how fast time goes! Fortunately for me, Ivie is more than happy to continue being my baby ('I big baby, Mummy' - Thank you little Ivie!)

Although I have spent the past few weeks in denial, it was a lovely day. I had way too much fun making Ivie's 'tea party' cake - she loves dolls (babies), and sharing tea and cake with them, so she adored her cake too.

So happy and sad all at the same time...

I *heart* MAEVE magazine!

Gorgeous, beautiful, quirky, lovely! I just can't say enough!

MAEVE's first issue went live a few days ago (it's an online mag - so let's add eco-friendly to the list above), and it really is stunning! I can honestly say that it's up there with Frankie as my favourite of all time. You simply must take a look MAEVE Magazine

So much thought has obviously gone into MAEVE. I love every photo, every interview, article...

Oh, and check out the spunk in the 'Thrift is not a dirty word' shoot... (Of course I mean my Nicholas, though how cute is the tanty here!?)

I love that MAEVE has dedicated a whole shoot to recycled kids fashion!

And like I said, the little details - what a lovely end page!
