More Kittens!!
Hi. No stitching to show, I have done some just not enough
to warrant taking a photo, maybe soon J
So why has there been so little stitching. I pretty much
explained in my last post baby madness has hit the house and we are trying to
get everything sorted. We now have a cot so the last big thing to get sorted is
a changing table which will make things easier for me. Other than that its
small things and then just waiting (which is the bit I hate)
Kiki has had another litter of kittens. Four of them again
and they are so cute. It looks like Simba (our male Bengal) finally worked out which
way round she goes ...if you understand what I mean.... as two of the kittens
have Bengal markings as his the only male Bengal who goes out in our area it’s pretty
certain his now a daddy. Kiki is doing great so much better than she did last
time. All kittens seem happy and healthy all are a pretty good size too which
is good.
Connors pre-op went well his op is on the 26th April
so not long now. I’m mega nervous. He has also been registered at a local
school and will be starting in September. The only problem to sort out now is
school uniform. As his so tiny I don’t think we are going to be able to find
uniform easily. Hopefully after his op he will have a growth spurt, everywhere I
have looked don’t do 12-18month school trousers, not bad for a almost 4 year old.
Connor and I have finished our first adult puzzle together. It’s
a 1000 pieces and only took us roughly 3 days. He really surprised me how well
he worked out what piece went where. The puzzle is by Gibson I believe. It’s called
“I love London” and is so funny when you look up close. Connor even found bits
of it funny. Next we will be doing “I love boot fairs” it’s been so great to be
able to sit down with him and do these, as I used to do them with my parents
when I was growing up.

no stitching :(
Hi i thought i would post a decent update. There’s not been
any stitching going on since my last post. We have been running around like
crazy trying to get all the baby bits sorted as i now have 12 weeks till they
induce me, and I’m getting more tired and painful by the day. There’s not all
that much to get sorted. Some of the bigger bits will be picked up this week. We
have been trying to declutter the house and get tidy and organised. After busy
days of tidying up I’ve been spending most of my stitching time in the bath
soaking in bubble bath and reading a book. (The house of sand and fog) which is
brilliant i watched the film ages ago and it was the only book in the house i haven’t
read.
I’m hoping to have some stitching done at some piont next
week but it depends on how Connors pre-op and then his operation goes.

Progress on Yule fairy
Here’s a quick pic of “Yule fairy” this has stitched up pretty quick and has been nice to stitch. This is the first 2 rows of the first page. I’m now debating on whether to carry on with the first 2 rows all the way across then I’ll have the full size of it, or should I work page by page? Hmmmm so choices!
I have completed the finishing of my mystery project which was a lot more easier then I thought it would be. Connor helped with the sowing on the front panel and the whole thing was finished in about 2 hours of hand sowing. I can’t wait to get it wrapped up and given to the birthday girl. I hope she will love it.
I have recently started teaching Connor to cook easy meals, supervised of course. He is really enjoying it and his eating has got a little bit better. So far we have made tuna and pasta, which is just tuna, pasta and salad cream and beans on toast.
I had a great mother’s day got spoilt rotten even if I did have to make my own breakfast! Me and Connor made a present for my mum which she loved it was a little heart shaped box which we put a few sweets in. It was great fun making it with Connor.
