Fort Molly #2

I'm blogging from my sick bed. Ok I'm not sick.. just feeling pains only a hot water bottle, crumpets and tea can cure! I'm sorry this is a little late, but better late than never, Monday's hand-in was horrid.

Now that Jamie has a regular working schedule (as opposed to sometimes not coming home 'til 2am and working weekends!) I have come to really appreciate our evenings in to cook and relax, and our beautiful weekends full of family and baby fun. Here are some snippets from our weekend :) I hope you had a lovely one and this week is even better!! (I just realised I didn't get a picture of the whole Fort! Next time, I will and next time it will be even better, Jamie had a plan hehe)



(Mollys bed tuft is my favourite)










And a few from my iPhone. 

 Out to dinner with Mummy and daddy, the biggest jumper you have ever seen, Molly got back! And the first January frost but a nappy trip to Sainsburys, it was almost and emergency!!

I'm already excited for next weekend..

Fort Molly.


A little snippet of our weekend :)
(You can see in the middle picture Molly's love for destruction doesn't cease for my hand built forts!)
I shall do a proper post tomorrow of our mini adventures. I hope you've all had a lovely time.

Christmas Crafting.

I haven't talked about it on here yet but my tumblr followers will know I'm pretty into crafting! This year I've decided to make some decorations, I got the idea for this simple wreath on Bleubird (my tumblr followers will also know she is my favourite). To begin I cut a rough circular shape bent it in half and cut out the inner circle to make a hoop. Considering it will hang in my living room and I used strips of my favourite Christmas paper, I probably should of used a template. But hey, it's homemade it's not supposed to be prefect! So I cellotaped strips of festive paper to four sections of the 'hoop' and made a central focus with my favourite deer at the top.


After adding wrapping paper to my roughly cut circle, I added festive fabric scraps and stuck some PVA over the top to secure it all.


I then added a 'Merry Christmas' sign from The Range (only £1! Bargain!) to the wreath with PVA and used old glass GÜ pots to secure it while it dried.


I'll hang up the wreath tomorrow on our living room door when we decorate. I'm very excited!! I plan to document the whole day as it's the first of many festive themed days for Molly's first Christmas!! Gosh, this time last year I was fat and eating mince pies and making dens in the middle of the lounge. Gosh I really didn't like that flat in the end. Feels like forever ago..


Just hanging out with my millions of magazines, cake and dvds in my pregnancy fort..
