well Its been a while

Things have been very busy here since my last post ,tonight has been my first opportunity to do a bit of blogging .Ive got a few random type photos going back as far as mothers day . The photo above is my beautiful mothers day card which Ben picked out for me :)


Bens got a scissor fascination at the moment i bought him some left handed scissors but i cant remember where i have put them so here he is chopping up a picture with mummy's craft scissors .


these are the mothers day cards Ben and Daisy made for Grandma .



This little guy is Winston the Zebra

Hes made from a pair of stripey socks and was made for Sarah ,Colin ,Alice and tummy pixie of the Taylor-Dunn tribe :)















I decided way back in February that i was going to knit Ben and Daisy a Rabbit each for Easter and it has taken me this long to finally finish knitting them both, fitting in a bit here and a bit there while Molly slept next to me in bed .



















while rummaging through boxes i came across a 'Magic Painting' book which we were given last Christmas so we had a go and Ben and Daisy were amazed by it ! and i must admit so was i it was really fun painting it and seeing what colour the pictures went ,its not the most creative thing ever but was lots fun.
















This little piggy is now 3months old and has started 'talking' and attempting to roll over










Ben took this photo of me and the Molly pop.












These are our scrunchy crunchy chicks which we made for Easter cards .


















It was a good job we started all our Easter crafts well in advance as we all came down with the vomiting bug Daisy got it then Molly got it a bit then Daisy got better then Ben got it and got Better then i had it then Daisy got it again but this time she had it really bad she couldn't keep even the smallest drop of water down and spent about 3 days being sick we visited the out of hours doctor who gave her some medicine to stop her being sick but it didn't work, on the fourth day when she got up after a night of being sick she looked really awful and was screaming for juicey and when i comforted her i could feel all her bones and she had visibly lost weight so me and my mum took her straight to the urgent care centre at the hospital. She was admitted to the children's ward with dehydration and put on a drip she was so unhappy and screaming in pain it was truly awful all i could do to help was cuddle her .
She had to stay the night i was all ready to stay with her but Mollyother ideas she hated the hospital and cryed and cryed and wouldn't settle so very tearfully i decided i couldn't stay so my dad stayed over night with her . the next day she stayed on her drip all day but looked so much better and was able to keep some toast and juice down so by the evening they decided she was well enough to come home .
She has slowly recovered and has got her appetite and her energy back but is still much thinner than she was . Ben missed her like mad and was really happy to have her home .







































Now things are getting back to normal i have had the time to start making Ben's birthday badge and crown . so far Ive finished the badge , his birthday is Tuesday so i think ive got enough time to make his crown , fingers crossed.

    I hope you are all better now, my little one has the sickness bug for 7 days and lost so much weight - it is scary isn't it :-( Hope she is back up to full weight soon.

    Loving the birthday badge, I just blogged about my middle ones birthday party the other day - fun times.
