Ooo Baby, Baby

Well, a big THANK YOU to all those people who’ve contacted us with their ‘congrats’ on Sweetkid#3. We really do appreciate it. And to answer all who’ve asked, we’re due mid December (I’m about 17 weeks). Our initial due date was Christmas Day, which was extra weird as I found out I was pregnant on [...]

Anyone for cake…?

Ever since M&M brought us a copy of the ridiculously ‘lol’ funny book, ‘Cake Wrecks’, I have become a devotee of www.cakewrecks.blogspot.com… If you ever needed a chuckle, this is the place to go (although, I’m more of a loud ‘guffaw-er’ myself). I shall give you a little taster with my personal favourite. First, imagine the conversation: Baker: [...]

Quote Unquote

I spend a fair amount of time hanging around our church waiting for M&M – he’s a man much in demand! A few months ago as I loitered outside his office, I decided to ditch my usual pass-the-time routine (tutting, drumming fingers, sighing loudly etc) and wandered into our Sweetchurch library. As I leafed through [...]

For Life’s Little Dramas

Friday is fast becoming the day that I post a little something that will waste MINUTES of your life. So sorry. I do intend to post about something more meaningful at some point. My original plan was to use Friday for ‘Family Fun’ ideas and to share some fab online resources I’ve come across for [...]

More Friday ‘Frivolity’ (with a Swedish Flavour!)

Fridays do something odd to me. Concentration wanes. Rules relax. Sweetmumma kicks back and awaits the weekend! Maybe it’s the lingering ‘Thank Crunchie It’s Friday’ feeling left over from my days as a working woman. Who knows? Who cares? I like it! So, another Friday post is devoted to something entirely frivolous. Apologies. But this [...]

September Round Up # 2: The Birthday

Where did the time go? It seems like yesterday he was just a babe-in-arms… and all those other kids-birthday related cliches! Yep, PeanutM&M turned FOUR! Cue much celebration, even more cake, far too many gifts that play tunes/make noises and a shiny new big-boy-bike. This little man is my joy… ….but I should probably take [...]

The Week(end) That Is…#5

The final installment of my lazy-no-writing birthday week… Thankyouverymuch, Sweetfriends.  Elvis has left the building… X ps. you may notice there are no ‘Sunday shots’ – didn’t think you’d want to see pics of church, hoovering, too-much-TV-watching & sleeping!

The Week That Is…#4

After a day squirreling away in the Sweetchurch office yesterday, followed by an evening watching weird, retro kids TV with my Sweetlife Group; I’m back with my record of the birthday week to end all birthday weeks… X

The Week That Is…#3 – Pirate Day, aaarrrr!

Ahoy there, me Hearties! T’was Pirate Day today…  XXX  PS. The little pirate prayer at bedtime went down well – although Peanut did seem a tad more excited about the toy than the Bible truths!! It was a special moment, though. The whole day led to this – the Greatest Treasure. I really felt Peanut [...]

Stumped

Before you get too worried, this post is not cricket-themed (although I did spend a rather enjoyable evening watching 20-20 last night; complete with a spectacular Essex come-back, a Mascot time-trial and go-go-dancing-girls!). No, this post is about the effect that PeanutM&M has on poor, old Sweetmumma… This afternoon, after a fabulous couple of hours [...]
