Happenings and moments from the last couple of weeks...

Getting the highest scores "so far" for presentation, taste and difficulty with this yummy carrot cake at Tani's work's first ever office "bake off."

Finding, Identifying and drawing lots of Spring animals. birds, bugs and flowers on our afternoon walkabouts.

I printed off some identifier sheets for the girls from the woodland trust nature detectives. There is a prize for the first one who ticks off all their boxes :)

Looking through old photo albums and watching old home movies on rainy afternoons.

Play dolls house. Matilda loves to rearrange the furniture in her dolls house. Her dolls are particularly house proud :)

Little Handmade <span class=

I love the endless stories the girls come up with for their little animals and dollies.

Sometimes they will follow the story line of a favourite film or book, other times the stories will be far more mundane and include everyday details an family anecdotes, often their stories will escape completely into the realms of fantasy and fairytale.

And this sweet babe. Of course I couldn't not include at least one picture of her...

    Your home looks so peaceful, so inviting! Mine, with all its boys, is usually noisy and chaotic!

    Suzy it's great to have you back and to see what you and your family have been up to. Very lovely in all ways. Your life seems so beautiful and peaceful (I'm sure it isn't always, but fundamentally --).
