**** November 2012 Mummies **** (everyone welcome)

Gorgeous Sally! I started on a bunny before Lyla was born and never got round to finishing it! Will have to post a piccie!

Lyla is in size 3 nappies and they still have a good bit of room left. She takes 6-7oz every 3 hours during the day and 4 hours at night xx
 
I love crochet I find it so relaxing lol. Looking forward to your pic. I'm in the middle of doing a giraffe for a friend (not sure how the neck is going to work though!) so will post a pic when I'm done. I have too many hobbies! Xx


 
Gosh you are a talented lot LOL!

I don't have any hobbies. I like to bake but haven't done it in ages as I like to eat what I bake. I also love to read but never have time.

James is in size 3 and has aprox 36oz's per day (he has 5 bottles - 7am: 8oz, 11am: 7oz, 3pm: 7oz, 6pm: 6oz and 8pm: 8oz.) he is on Aptamil. He sleeps through and has done since he was about 10 weeks.

Try a straw in the giraffes neck Sally to keep it straight! xx
 
Sally they are brill, have u thought about making some extra pennies and selling your things. Or making things from baby grows like stuffed animals etc that you can keep instead of clothes.

Arthur is in a size 4, his poo kept shooting up his back and covering him :( hes got a long back. Been in them now about a month.

Thanks for the lovely comments on the cakes and drawings, i forgot to say my big passion is photography, ive just bought a professional camera and done some amazing work with it :)
This is some of my work before i bought it, will upload my new stuff tomorrow, xx
 
Omg Chloe I love the bunny you have to finish it! You are a very talented lady with that scrapbook too! I wish I had kept stuff from pregnancy but I didn't even take many pics :(

I will have a play around but as its for a baby I'm nervous of making it too hard which may poke him in the eye or something lol? Xx


 
Amanda I do make them for cost for friends (cost of the wool and stuffing) but wouldn't be able to sell them as they aren't my patterns. Quilts/keepsakes on the other hand I would definitely be able to do, it's hard to find time though as the sewing machine isn't exactly quiet so I can't do it while C naps like crochet lol! Xx


 
Ella is in size 4's and has been for a few weeks lol! size 3s were tight she also looks uncomfortable in her 3-6 month clothes :( I darnt get her weighed as im so scared they will judge me! im being stupid.. She feeds every 3 hours and at night she usually goes about 7 hours and then another 4! she goes to bed between 6-7 every night and is up between 12-2 and then 7 then back to bed til 9 :) sleeping wise shes amazing :) Lucky mummy!
 
Its something i want to learn sally the sawing machine, id love it, make buntings and quilts etc :) chloe that rabbit is to cute i wish i had that skill xx
 
Wow chloe. The bunny is looking great. I didnt keep much from pregnancy. The scrap books are a brilliant idea.

Toby is in size 3's at night. Hes in reusables in the day. Hes now fully on aptimal.

Just had poor soul wake up screaming. Both oh and me uo there like a shot trying to calm him down. Just gave him his feed early but have s feeling its gonna be a busy night with him. X

Ruth hun if you're happy with Ella and feel confident she is a healthy happy baby (she certainly looks it from her photos) then I don't see any particular need to get her weighed if you don't want :) I was small at birth, gained a lot of weight (I was a chubby 6m old!) and it dropped straight off me when I started walking.

It's good fun Amanda but there is very little sewing involved lol, mostly measuring, cutting of fabric and tacking/pinning fabric together, 30 seconds on the machine, ironing what you've just done, rinse and repeat lol. I'm lucky my grandma gave me her old machine as I'd never be able to afford one, she is too old to use it now :( xx


 
thanks girls, I taught myself to crochet while I was pregnant to keep busy. Very easy to learn xx
 
poor Toby! Was it a nightmare? Lyla gets them sometimes, so upsetting! She needs a big cuddle after them! We were on reusables for a while but with starting at creche Lyla went back into disposables for their sake :lol: She will be back in reusables when she finishes creche in 6 weeks time! Then I have her to myself for a full 4 months! :cheer:
 
It's going to be amazing Amanda! I miss her so much during the day that I actually left early today just so I could pick her up at 1 and have her all to myself until Daddy got home at 5 :love: We just cuddled for 4 hours :lol:

Love your photos by the way! I'm so bad at photography! :lol:
