An eventful few weeks....

..which is why I am only logging in today and seeing that Millie nominated me ( me...me ?????) for a Kreative Blogger award - I mean really...how lovely...and I feel so undeserving because I have been awol such a lot...but with good reason over the last couple of weeks.  Darn it, how do I publish the button for this too?  HELP ............
Crikey, also, seven other blogs which I find creative and seven things you don't know about me....mmm..first things first - seven blogs that inspire me :
City of Blackbirds
Tree Fall
Twelve 22
Pink Penguin
Hazelnuts
Flossie Teacakes
onegirl

Seven things you might not know about me...
1 - I cannot figure out how to link back to the Kreative Blogger button (please tell me how.....)
2 - I am suffering badly from baby brain and cannot remember anything !
3 - I love banana and marmite sandwiches
4 - I LOVE fabric.....mmmm.....and sewing, but actually moreso fabric
5 - I dream of working part time as a crafter and writer
6 - I am a qualified trainer but hate public speaking - I can do it, but I hate it!
7 - Our beautiful baby boy Luke was born (3+ weeks early) 2 weeks ago so I am now head over heels in love with him and so have been again neglecting my blog despite my resolution to get back to regular blogging.  Due to a dose of pre-eclampsia (mine!) he made his early appearance totally by surprise, one minute I'm at the Ob for a routine check, the next I'm being driven at high speed to the hospital by the midwife, chart in hand, being told that I need to be observed, and then a short time later, that I will be having this baby today by section!!!  I think I'm still in shock....but he's perfect, and I'm recovering and all is well with the world.
blast... my laptop won't let me upload any pics for some reason, it didn't, then it worked, now it's gone crazy again - arrgghhhhh
item 8 - I am hopeless at technical matters

  2. congratulations on you new little boy!! i'm sorry it was such a shock delivery, but it's good to know that you're both home and safe now :)

    banana a marmite?? that's an odd combination lol.

    and thanks so much for including me on your list, i'm chuffed! i'll have to make my own list with the next post i do!

    oh and dont worry about getting any prints, you've just had a baby, buying photography prints from etsy is probably one of the last things on your mind right now lol.

  3. Congratulations! I had a similar experience when Hazel came along, although she was full-term when the BP shot up alarmingly!
