Tomorrow I will take photos of my embarrassingly messy sewing room and show you all. Maybe it will shame me into cleaning it up so I can finally start sewing again!

Yes, I am only 17 weeks! No, I am not having twins!

Does anyone else get questioned about their due date and number of babies you are carrying or get shocked looks? I do! I did for all of mine. I think I carry larger than some women and now with number 3 I officially have no stomach muscles and so it just all hangs out!

 

I am tired, getting sciatic pain, and having dizzy spells…BUT I am carrying my 3rd gorgeous baby so I am great!

 

Here is the bump…17 + 3 weeks

Ishbel…a VERY late birthday present

My mums birthday is in January and about 3 weeks before hand I had a great idea of knitting something for her. I purchased the yarn, chose a pattern and even dyed it up myself, BUT I didn’t even get it cast on! Yes I am very slack daughter!

 

Well my SIL got onto me about it (in the nicest way) and so I finally cast on and completed this in about 10 days. I am quite happy with it. It is my first attempt at a shawl and I really like the smaller size for use as a scarf.

Pink Cupcakes!

The Pod Swaddler Pattern GUEST GIVEAWAY!!!!

My kids were the best at escaping when they were very small! No I wasn't trying to lock them in anywhere! I am talking about swaddling. The first week always went OK but as they got their strength up(I must have super milk!) they soon learnt to break free...and of course woke themselves up!

So on my blog browsing I found this give away. I think I will have to buy it if I don't win. I am sure this bub on the way will be just as good at escaping as my first two!
