Wicked!

Our first Wedding Anniversary, 28th March 2009. Thank you for all our lovely cards!

We left Chloe with Nana and off we went to London for the night in a 5* Hotel and to see a show - 'Wicked' It was really good, a bit of an alternative take on the Wizard of Oz, the actress (Sarah Earnshaw) that played Glinda was amazing and she was a stand in! I would definately recommend it. We even had a bottle of wine with our meal and a double disarrano for a night cap, I haven't had a proper drink in over a year! And yes it did go to my head! lol



It was hard leaving Chloe, I cried all the way to the train station! We missed her loads but it was nice having a bit of us time, and I still woke at 4am for her morning feed! DOH! Chloe was good for Nana, she apparently had a couple of little wobbles and did her mamamama crying. Other than that she had a whale of a time, playing with her Nana, Grandad and Uncle Richard :o)

Look who we found in Paddington Station! We thought we would bring him home for Chloe to look after :o)



We called in on Paul & Bev on the way home who provided us with a lovely tea, it was great meeting Luke for the first time, he is gorgous! Thankyou Becca for Chloe's balloon and the cute little whale, she loves them!

Harrogate

Mum and Dad came to stay in Harrogate for a couple of days so Mum could go to the craft show tomorrow (which I wasn't happy about as I can't go! How rude of her to go without me!) Anyway, Chloe and I drove over this morning to see them at their hotel, we had a lovely lunch, (thanks Dad!) and clearly it was all too much for Chloe who promptly fell asleep in time for me taking some photo's!

Week 9 Of Helen's challenge

I've done another Layout! Yippee! In record time! 40 minutes, including putting my stuff away back in the craft room!





Only 4 layouts to go!

Helen's Challenge! Week 8 Layout

I haven't forgotton!

Helen's challenge was to scrap a layout a week, well as you probably noticed, it's fell by the wayside a bit! But I do want to catch up, so lets see how far behind I am!

Hmmm Week 6 was the Cyber Crop and I did two layouts, which I will class as 2 weeks so really I am 6 weeks behind including this week which is week 13!

I haven't been doing nothing all this time, I've done CJ entry's for the LPD's AMOP CJ and I've started my Bumbs & Babes AMOP CJ but I can't show you those obviously! I've also started re-organising my craft room, so that's all upside down, i've got my new shelves in from Ikea, it just all needs sorted out and tidied up! It's all been getting a bit stressfull!

Here's a layout which I completed on Saturday, at the LPD's crop, I still feel it's missing something, but I love the pretty papers, which were donated by my friend Hazel, they go so well with the photo's, thankyou very much Hazel!



It's all about Chloe, saying 'Buh' all the time, it's so cute!















The photo's don't do the papers justice really, they are sparkly and so pretty!

My First Mothers Day!

Well I didn't get off to a good start, Chloe woke about 4:30am, so I fed her then I couldn't get back to sleep (she did!) I started with a snuffly nose and feeling poorly, so I got up and stuck a photo on a layout, then did some more to my Scrap Your Day book, by this time it was 6:30 and Chloe woke, so I fed her, dressed her and fed myself, all while Daddy was still fast asleep in bed! I'm sure it was me who was supposed to have a lie in!

When Daddy did get up, he helped Chloe give me a beautiful card and a book about Scrapbooking! I was rather emotional and chuffed to bits!

We then went into Leeds, and did some shopping and I got treated to Nando's for lunch, yummy!

Thankyou Chloe and Daddy!

Anyway it was all a bit too much for Chloe too, and we both drifted off!

Weekend in Cumbria & Another Chloe First!

I'm playing catch up again!

We popped upto Cumbria for the weekend, so we could buy a highchair for Chloe with a voucher mum had.

After we got the highchair on Saturday, we met up with Roanne, David and Jason and went for a coffee, then we all had tea at my Mum's house. Chloe had a fab time playing with Jason, and riding round on his back!

Chloe also did another 'first' at Grandma's, she climbed up a wooden trolley and stood up all by herself! (The only help she had was us stopping the trolley from rolling away!)







I'm sure we have a video of this... will post once I've found it!
