SO much to share...

And yet SO little time...

Just wanted to pop in and say I am still alive and kicking; unfortunately with a new-born and a toddler, there is very little time to do anything except survive ;-)!

I have so many posts buzzing around in my sleep-deprived brain, and so many photos and little things I want to share... but just not enough hours in the day to do even the basic things, let alone the extra's such as blogging! However, I am still trying to keep up with your blogs - but I just don't have the time to comment as I'd like too :-(!

So I will be taking a little hiatus for the next while, until things calm down and start gaining some kind of vague routine around here. If I have the time to pop in and post a few photos - I will, promise... but ;-)!!!!!

With that in mind - here are a few photos to make you go awwwww:


Chatting with Mum


Snuggles with Nana

Lots of role-playing going on - this is Button bathing her baby doll Ruby...


All wrapped up after first bath - clean and sweet smelling again!

He's so adorable - you must all be besotted! Have been thinking of you and hoping all is going well (and secretly hoping for tips on parenting a 2yo and a newborn!!). Enjoy every moment and we'll see you when we see you xx

VERY Belated Ninja-Bake Post...

It's funny how things work out...
I wasn't planning on doing the Ninja Bake, but it had been niggling me a little bit; I had the confidence and the time this year to actually do this, and it seemed such a cool thing. SO, eventually I made an effort to read up on it, only to discover that the registrations to be a 'Baker' had closed the day before - so I figured 'it wasn't meant to be'!
Next thing I know - there was an e-mail from Sophie thanking me for registering; with enough other details for me to realise that she had the wrong Elizabeth, in the wrong city! But it was a 'God-Incidence', and I just knew it! So I e-mailed her straight back, explained the alter-ego issue, but also let her know I actually was keen... and that is how it got started!
I registered, but it was decided I would pick two families myself - which I had been thinking of doing anyway! So I duly went up to Button's Preschool and asked the lovely Head Teacher to pass on the name…

Commenting...

Image
Loads of people are commenting on the most recent changes in Blogger; most annoyingly, now you have to verify two words, not one... and they are VERY difficult to read. To the point it is almost ridiculous; and some people have stopped commenting altogether.
I have finally worked out (after much frustration) how to turn off 'Word Verification', and am only using the 'Comment Moderation' tool now! Yay for me... 

Linking in hereand here!
So please come back and comment on my blog again, it's all easy-peasy once more; nothing too difficult or annoying  ;-)!

Burnt Potatoes and other things that make me GRUMPY!!!!!

Image
Tuesday 16th November 2010

 I had a bit of a burning problem today... not sure if I should be admitting it or not, but here it is!


I, ahhh - burnt the potatoes I was cooking for dinner! Burnt the potatoes I hear you say - how on earth...???!!!! It's really quite simple; I had expected Button to not want to go to bed for another 20-30 minutes, but she cracked up earlier than I had anticipated, and when she cracks - she CRACKS! So I just popped upstairs to put her down, normally this 'little' job only takes about 10-15 minutes, as she quietly 'chats' herself to sleep in my arms. But NO - today she screamed for the first 10 minutes, and then she took another 15 or so minutes to actually settle down and go to sleep... it wasn't until I was in the middle of this saga that I remembered the potatoes AND pumpkin were both cooking on the stove on HIGH!!!!! 
As time went on, I could smell the burning; but I also knew that if I popped Button down I'd have to start again, …
