Finnished!!!!


whey hey, I started this jumper for a boy who is now about 9 years old!  not knitting all that time, mainly it has sat at the bottom of a bag forgotten awaiting the last arm being sewn up.  But now it is all finished.  And in time for Florence to wear it.

We took the girls to see the English National Ballet today.  They were performing Angelina Ballerina who is a very much loved character in our house full of girls.   It was wonderful, they loved it so much  and were completely captivated for the whole thing.  watch a clip of it here.  Just a pity that florence managed to provide an explosion that not only soaked through her clothes but mine as well in a big soggy yellow mess that i didn't discover until the lights went up at the  end.

Looking forward to easter tomorrow the girls made amazing hot cross buns today  which made a lovely post ballet treat.  hopefully the snow sill stay and we can do a spot of seasonalEaster sledging.

Just because they are beautiful



Some important updates



Florence Renee Ann Noble (FRAN)


Life in the fun bus has completely changed since last post.  Things are now even more crazy!  we are please to announce there is now another traveler on this crazy ride she comes in the for of our lovely Florence.  Born 6th January and now 2 months old she is learning to deal with the rest of the family in her own special way.  Its not a great photo of her as most of them are stuck on our old computer but there will be more.  And she is beautiful.  The sisters did not take to her immediately however i feel hopeful that they are getting more used to her and things do seem slightly improved.  Ruby at least now thinks she is the mummy to her even if Coralie still thinks of her as arch enemy.

Knitting, is taking over my like a bit (in a good way).  Our little knit club has moved to an exclusive location in a chocolate shop on Eccelsall road can you imagine once a week i get to go out without any children (thank you brian) to sip chocolate and knit with lovely people.  amazing, you can expect further updated on various projects as i develop my skills.

The moon, our new favorite place to play.  Will post photos of that soon.
BOO

Blogging absence has been due to a lengthy gloomy period.  Anyway will now attempt to say pah to all that and continue.
