Who Knew Bubbles Could Be So Much Fun?



This morning, while feeling utterly exhausted and a little bit sick I was overcome with a very strange urge to clean out my daughter's little container of kitchen stuff.
It has held her panadol, bottles, bowls & cutlery and needed a clean. Out went the bottles and all their bits and pieces. She has totally weaned herself off the bottle so no use now!
While cleaning I found a tiny bright yellow plastic bottle full of bubbly liquid.
I blew a few bubbles in the kitchen to see how Eve would react....
Well!
She loves them!
She ran around, chasing them, trying to catch them and being amazed when they popped in her hands.
I looked down at the floor and realized it was covered in slippery liquid. Ooops!
I quickly wiped it all down before any accidents could happen and took Eve off into the loungeroom onto our big shaggy rug.
Then the fun began......









What a cutie! She ran through them, tried to catch them then just sat and stared as they floated down around her.

Monday Madness

I am always overcome with this urge to make things.
I want to make some of these cupcakes:



And these beautiful coffee filter roses!



This gorgeous child's travel pillow:



This super pretty whirl it lampshade:



Crochet some of these slippers:



Make some of these delicate paper cherry blossoms (I even have the branches ready to go!):



I'll eventually get to them.... Someday!

Things Look A Little Different Around Here!

You may have noticed I did a major overhaul of my blog yesterday. I used the new Blogger Template Designer and I really like it!
There were so many great options to choose from and with a live demo it made tweaking so much easier.

But that won't be the only change around here. I am aiming to do more frequent posting and be a little more organised. Though I can't make any promises yet!
I have lots of photos of crafty goods to take and share, and even a special giveaway coming up soon. It is so gorgeous I know it will be hard to part with, but I would love to give it to a new home!

I have also added and "About Me" page, just click on our little family photo on the right hand side and it will take you there. It's not an essay of my life, just a few short and sweet notes on me and my family. I like to read about the people I follow so I thought it was about time I shared a little too.

I hear my girl calling.....
