Molly's Diary.


As Mummy promised, the lakeside snaps of me and mummy :)
How cute do I look with my scrunchy face on the first picture?
I think I'm adorable. For example, last night, I fell asleep cuddling Thumper!
I think he's my favourite, I like kissing him more than Mummy hehe.
 I swear I get cuter everyday!

Hope you liked my post,
Love Molly xx

Baby Hairclip DIY

A DIY for a simple felt hair clip :)
You will need: plain clips, felt or any scraps of fabric, scissors, pins and a glue gun.
Cut your flower shape and pin together, this I think is the most fun bit! Heres a few I had 
a go with. Not all girls like flowers, hearts and bows, you could do animals or camera's or 
anything! I'm making Molly an easter bunny to go in her basket next!
Here's a paper example of how to make the coral flower, it's not very clear but I wanted to
do a quick one on photobooth while Molly has a short nap. Blogging and babies ha!
(ignore the dots I was trying to make it more complicated than it needed to be)
Basically make loads of petals attaching to each other spiraling inward, when you
get to the middle stop cutting and wind it into a flower, glue in place. Pretty easy huh :)
I added a small peach heart to go in the middle because I'm obsessed with peaches and 
corals at the moment! To fix it onto the hair clip just glue gun a little onto the end and 
hold the base of the flower in place. Just need Molly to grow a little more hair now I've
made her lots of pretty clips! 

The sweetest little model (L)

Market Bosworth.

The weather recently has been wonderful, it's been such a joy not to have to
layer Molly with vests and to banish the tights! Since Chaz is visiting for the 
week, on monday we decided to go out into the countryside for some lunch.
Happily, we ended up in Market Bosworth. Here are a few snaps from our day :)
(Worlds biggest bird nest or a strange type of tree that clusters like this? Either way it seemed
to be a bird hotel!)
All the quaint little houses inspired me so much to sort our front garden (as well 
as buy a new house in the sticks!) I want to paint our front door olive, get a white
picket fence, plant some climbing rose bushes and a beautiful hanging basket like the 
one above. So many plans I need to draw up some designs!

Chaz took some lovely pictures of Molly and I in front of the lake and I'm very
excited to do a separate post on those later. She really is the most perfect little creature.

Miss Mox Got The Pox.

Poor Molly has Chicken Pox :( I discovered a spot this morning on her 
forehead and when I took her to her childminders at 8am it turned out her playmate 
got them last night! So far they haven't been to bad for her and like the amazing
 trooper she is she hasn't let them dampen her spirits! I think she is super happy 
she's been able to spend some time with her daddy as he has been kind enough 
to take some time off work to look after her while I finish my last week at uni, 
exams and hand-ins are looming! I have 9000 words to write ASAP! Eeek.
Impeccable timing though to get the dreaded pocks while I get some time off.
I'm so glad I can really focus on taking care for her. Well done Molly!


She had a lovely long bath this afternoon to soothe her, you can just about see the big 
nasty pock I spotted on her forehead. A few more have appeared and I've been putting
 on some chamomile ointment as we go. We've been dressing her in nice soft clothes that
rub as little as possible and as soon as I found out before I drove home I grabbed her some
of her favourite snacks, a new toy to cheer her up and some special soft sun hats so that she
can spend some time outside with her daddy during their day together.

If you have any suggestions to help make this time as easy for her as possible I'd really appreciate
hearing them :) Thankyou.

Over and out from the Pox-Roberts household!
