This little lambkin, fast asleep, snuggled in her much loved wrap. She brings it to me and shouts "up up angoo [translation: thankyou] up angoo up!" The other thing I love to hear right now is "huggle!" *melt*
This huge great baby bear turned one last week, and I was too busy packing to post a special birthday greeting to him. Sweet Connor, keep right on just as you are, you precious crazy toddler! And dear mama-friend, may you see the purpose and the blessing in the struggle - and may this next year with your beautiful son see the sunlight breaking through those clouds. xxx
Yes, I put gold sprinkles on his cake. ;) And here we have a photograph of my weekly shop (minus the veg box - and the monthly supplies already in my storecupboard). Yes, I photographed my shopping. Yes, I have been guilty of this before. Accept the crazy, it has purpose - a little welcome mat to you who are sharing the very ordinaryness of my life. :)
That pink folder again, my Bible, a new book, and a Moomin. He belongs to my husband. These are sitting besides my chair, in daily use at the moment. Except the Moomin. He just happened to be sitting there for a rest on his way somewhere exciting in the sticky hands of a small child.
There are Moomins everywhere in my house at the moment! I was so excited to find this cookbook while we were in London. Cultural studies plus geography plus cooking plus fun and randomness (plus Moomins). What's not to love?
Wow, moomins - haven't seen them for years!
ReplyDeleteLoving the sharing of your ordinaryness, lovely wholesome foods and all.
I don't think I could ever tire of being asked for a hug, whatever the word has been to ask for it, time to stop and be together. Lovely x
Oh wow, I loved the moomins as a kid. I found a site a while back when I was looking for something for some pagan friends who are heathen flavoured, that was had moomin books etc.. Haha, found it:

Oh my goodness Moomins!!! Jealous!!
ReplyDeletePlease let me know where you got your wooden Moomin?!?
ReplyDeleteThe fabulous fabulous Lorilee! :) She is amazing, her toys are gorgeous and the shipping is relatively inexpensive (and best of all, her parcels have always magically avoided customs for us lol)! :)

Oh thank you! We absolutely love Moomins and I've never seen wooden ones - perfect! I'm really trying to control my purse strings at the moment but I'm not sure I can resist Moominmamma and Moominpappa!!!! Love your blog by the way but it always make me feel guilty that I can't seem to keep mine up to date, ah well ;o)
ReplyDeleteAmanda, thankyou so much for the sweet compliment, I'm glad you are enjoying sharing our days. :)
