Babies Babies everywhere!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO......

Fiona and Mark and James and Harrison
on the arrival of their sweet sweet baby girl/sister
Kate Margaret on Tuesday night

Super Fiona had a natural delivery and Kate is now out of Intensive Care and closer to home. We all hope she'll be home for Christmas, but that is unlikely. Can't wait for her to come home so we can all visit!!!

AND
Cara and Lucien and Kai
on the arrival of their handsome baby son/brother
(insert name here) - we think "Michael" or "Giovanni" would be perfect LOL
on Friday night(2 weeks early!!)

Super Mum Cara, drug-free labour for only 5.5 hours!!!!!!

I know this is a major achievement for both these families who have dealt with so much the last 3 years or so. Both of you deserve a whopping great big diamond tiara for this journey!!

When there is so much going on around you, sometimes you need to stop and delight in the most purest of things, like the birth of a new child - or two!! And I'm pausing and trying to remember what it was like when my babies came into this world and I get happy - and a little sad too.

Okay, now I'm crying.
So onto something else.

Here's what I made for Alex today (my unofficial god-daughter)

and as I thought, not sure if she liked it or not. It's a bit of a departure from the cutesy stuff I usually give her. But thought it was time for her to move into new territory. Charlotte LOVED it as I expected.

and some exciting news....
Susan Longman (the White with One genius) has taken over the helm of Scrap the Boys which I am SUPER SUPER excited about.
She's looking for a Creative Team.
Wondering if I should apply??????????????????????????????
(any "Oh yes Gi!! You'd be great!!" type encouragement would be appreciated LOL)

brighter and buoyant........
(p.s. still thinking about what I was thinking about yesterday)
