Giraffe's by Post

Just had to share the exciting mail that was awaiting me today - the beautiful Gertrude and Gilbert pattern by Audrey & Maude.

Big thanks to RicRac for pointing me in the direction of these very talented ladies and their beautiful patterns!

I think I might make one of these for Matilda for her birthday (since she seems to like giraffes).

Happy Boy

Just needed to share this pic of my beautiful happy boy. Kelvin has started rolling over and is moving around like a caterpillar (slowly, thank goodness) - I'm not sure I'm ready for a boy on the move but he has to keep up with his sister!

Violet Rainbow

And thanks to a link from Jo in Tas, I took this quiz and think it's a pretty accurate reflection of me!

Your rainbow is shaded violet.

What is says about you: You are a creative person. You appreciate beauty and craftsmanship. You are patient and will keep trying to understand something until you've mastered it.

Peas in a Pod

Well here's a picture of my two (taken today) - it takes pictures like this to make me see how similar they are!

And just in case you can't see it - here's a comparison Matilda at 5 months (in the pink singlet) and then Kelvin at 5 months (in the beanie)!!

Kelvin @ 5 months

Well the boy is another month older. Again, I have taken photos with Ranga the Rhino. I really wanted to have some photo of Kelvin's tummy since he is proving to be a bit of a "baby buddha" and looks especially big when he's naked!

Horizontal stripes seem to emphasise the chub!

And this is what he's doing right now (sleeping on the changemat on the floor in the middle of the loungeroom).

Life is good!

My Own Font

Wow - I've just discovered that I can turn my own handwriting into a font on my computer! Just go to http://www.yourfonts.com/print.html and give it a go yourself - so much fun and slightly cooky.



As for the family - we have all recovered from head colds and some mild gastro. Latest photo of the two kids was in front of the TV, I think they may be slightly addicted (or just take after their father, at least they're not watching StarTrek!).
