January

January in a nut shell:

Finished Objects:

2 Skirts using this pattern, soon to be blogged.


1 pair of earrings

2 necklaces, again, still to be blogged.

1 Star Wars themed birthday cake

Books Read:

2nd Chance by James Patterson - this was great, looking forward to getting stuck in to the 3rd book in the series!

Half Way though Cupcakes at Carringtons by Alexandra Brown - a little light relief from murder books :)

Weight Lost:

5lb - yipee! Only another 22lb to go...

Worst Bits (before best bits to get them over with):

Watching my Mum go through the first round of Chemo.

The emotional roller coaster that we continue to be on as a family.

Head lice - yuk!

Best Bits:

Big E's 9th Birthday celebrations

Sewing day at the Stitchery in Glasgow with fellow sewing bloggers (which I forgot to take photos of...)

Snow!

Watching as E, e and their wee cousin become more and more crazy about each other :)

Doing the 30 days of yoga series, I am a few behind but this has kept me sane in what has been a crazy month!

A lot of snow and a teeny tiny hat!

What a week, it started like this

Blizzard like conditions...

followed by glorious sunshine!
which was tricky, especially since my husband took my snow tyres off last week... A 7min drive to school took 1hr 30mins and lots of digging when the car got stuck.

The kids had fun though!

Day 3 when the snow was melting so perfect for snowman making!

 The week has ended with a trip up north to collect a piano and hen house from my uncle's house.

  
3 hours in the car called for some crochet so I made a teeny tiny hat for my Nephew who is due to arrive in July!


I used this pattern and it was very easy and quick. I also made a tablet (ipad like thingy not vitamins!) cosy but more on that when I get  a photo of it!

3/52 - A Snowy Day


 I am joining in 52 Portraits again this week.


Ready to slide! It is my big boy's last day of being 6 today, 7 seems so old....
That was fun!
 Saturday Sledging! We have the perfect slope at the side of the house for sledging and this is the first proper snow since we moved in a year and a bit ago so we have all been enjoying it!!

Snow Angels!
