Hi everyone,

Well its been a year since I have put up a post and I was in trouble on Saturday at a stamping afternoon at my upline’s house, the lovely Tanya Fraser (Hi Tanya – you are the reason I am pulling my finger out today to do this), for not updating my blog.  Well I have been a bit busy in that year (or is lazy more like it), we have added an addition to our little family, Brock William (you may of seen Madonna’s beautiful card she made for him on her blog).  He was born on 4th February, weighing 6 pound 15 oz.  Here he is at one day old with his big brother (just before bath time), aren’t they beautiful?

Mummy's boys

Unfortunately our poor little man had reflux so there was a lot of screaming (from him, even though sometimes I wish I could too) in our house and not much time to do anything else.  You just feel so helpless when there is nothing you can do for them.  I am just so thankful for drugs, he is now just the happiest baby and wouldn’t even imagine he had anything wrong with him.  We were just so lucky that even when he had reflux bad we still got good sleep of a night and his weight gain was unbelievable. 

Here is a photo that was taken of Brock yesterday at his Christening reception.  (I think I got a look in on this one – our oldest looks just like daddy).  I would post one of him at the actual Christening but his father doesn’t like the fact that his son wore a Christening gown (same one his Uncle, Mum and BROTHER {same deal there} wore) so I better not plaster them on the net.

And here is dad’s clone (can’t be showing favourtism putting one son in and not the other).  Thank you Tanya for taking these beautiful pics, I think you missed your calling – you should of been a photographer.

I also became an Aunty on Friday to a beautiful little girl, Rhiannon Gladys.  Now I can dress someone up in pink frilly dresses with ribbons and all the rest of the things you can put on girls. My sister in law isn’t a girly girl and hates the fact that we all want to dress Rhiannon up like one (Mum is in on it too been the first Granddaughter), Al is relieved though coz now I have someone to put dresses on (He didn’t like the fact I was going to dress Brock up since we only have two boys, lucky I did get a chance with the Christening gown hey).  I don’t have any pics yet but when I get some I will upload them to show you all.  Now I can do pretty pink scrapbooking pages too – Yay!!!  So you might see some of them too – if you’re lucky.

Now I am not saying this is going to be a weekly thing but I will try to make it more regular than a yearly blog.  No promises .

Thanks for stopping by and I will load up some of my creations I have done in the last year (yes I have done some stamping since you last heard from me) when I get around to it.  Just wanted to share some pics and news with you this time.  Now the girls can’t pick on me anymore for not posting anything, hehe.

C U soon,
Mel

I have been tagged but I put my tag under pages and not a post (Still trying to get the hang of this blog thing).  To look please hit “I’ve been TAGGED” under the subheading PAGES.  Please feel free to tag yourself too.  Thanks

Okay, so I know my first real post should be of something stamping.  Well, I got a tad bit side tracked when looking for a picture of something I have made and found this photo which I just had to share with you. 

Aren’t the two men in my life just beautiful snuggled up in bed together.  The woolly one is my charming husband, Alan (in need of a shave) and the little guy is my adorable 13 month old son Jake.

I promise my next post will contain something stampy, until then, be good (or be good at it).

Hi Everyone!!!

Yes, you had better believe it.  I have a blog.  Not sure how it works or how to upload anything (not even sure if this will make it there) so please be patient with me.  I will have a play and in a couple of days should have it running sweet.  Thanks for looking!!

Luv Mel
