Happy Belated Easter.....

I hope that everyone had a good Easter. We spent it with family - on Saturday we had champagne and drinks to celebrate Evie's birth, and Sunday and Monday evenings we had dinner with my parents and then the in laws.

Tomorrow we are having a day out as it is the little monkey's 3rd birthday. I hope she'll have a fun day!

I planned to make bunny egg cosies for all Leah's friends who are coming to her party on Saturday, but what with having Evie wanting most of my time I haven't had a chance to knit all the pieces let alone sew them up which I found to be pretty time consuming.

I did manage one complete cosie so Leah's nabbed that one!

I have managed to knit a little cardigan for Evie, but with the rate she is growing an the lack of warm weather, I'm not sure if she'll get around to wearing it. I do hope so as I think its a really pretty one.

Here she is today, being a very good girl whilst I prepared dinner. What a cutie, even if I do say so myself!

A birthday day out at the farm

The (soon to be) birthday girl....

Just a quick picture of leah and her cake - more to come once Mum e-mails me her photos.....

A busy baking day

Tomorrow we are having a party for Leah's second birthday (which is on Tuesday), so today I - well we- have been busy baking cakes!

We made a raspberry Victoria sponge cake which I iced and decorated, 24 plain fairy cakes and 18 chocolate fairy cakes. I iced and decorated them all this evening and I am trying to stop myself from raiding the cake tins!!

Tomorrow morning I've got to make half a ton of sandwiches and get the rest of the party food ready, so tonight I'm going to have a rest before the rush tomorrow.....
