Getting ready for Hunny...

Angel and Ben's little girl will be here in a few weeks so we are all getting very excited.

Angel has been in "nesting" mode so Mr Deekie Belle and I have been helping them get the nursery ready.

This time around, with only one income they have decided to re-purpose and not to purchase new things.

Doug painted the room with Angel while I sewed up a storm (between Jingle Sox orders!!)

Khye-bug is still in his cot so we put together and bought them a cot for Hunny, nice and new but everything else was from goodwill stores or secondhand from friends....

a little paint and a bit of Angel's flair and here we have it!

I had this old shabby chic footstool, took off the cover and was left with this...

Made a nice new, pretty cover - I hope Hunny loves it!

Khye loves it LoL!! ;)

They were given this old change table, it was all chipped and stuff so Angel and Ben sanded it back and painted it, added some flourishes, and I made a lovely ruffled skirt to it - I think it looks beautiful!
It still needs a new change mat, that might help a bit ;)!

Some lace curtaining to cover the ugly blue vertical blinds. A few little nic nacs, and of course I bought a Mirror for her room. (you know me, I love mirrors!)

I think it is coming along nicely....

Back soon!

... some (very belated) Christmas photos...

It was my birthday the other day and I got thoroughly spoilt - one of my favorite things from Hubby and the kids was a huge array of embroidery cottons - (yes!, more embroidery cottons!)

I got quite a few more pretty things so will post them soon!

A while ago I bought this amazing thread rack from Lynne at Cockburn Sewing Centre, isn't it fantastic!!!!! It was a shop fitting that they no longer needed, it is huge so hubby cut it down and fit one piece in here, above my embroidery machine.. Need more threads as you can see :)!!

but I wonder where I will put the rest of the rack........

I made these for my adorable nieces, I hope they like them!

And here are some pics of Christmas eve, we had our family get together on Christmas eve becasue darling hubby had to workd on Christmas day - noice! (not!)

Oh well, I guess someone has to do it....

..........................

Our Little Bug.....

Isn't he beautiful!! Look at that face!! Honestly I could watch him all day.... he is so funny, and his personality is really starting to come through, he's a bit of a nutter though, a comedian, like his Uncle the rock star!! Here he's waiting for Presents, (Rock star can't get enough of him either, they are such good mates, Bug adores him! )

The songstress and the sports fan were so very tired from their trip up to Perth, and the glamour cirl is chillaxing (her word!) waiting to be lavished with presents :)!!

Pressies that were too big to fit under the tree!

Everyone getting impatient waiting for Dad to get home!

(no room in the lounge, too many pressies, they were stuffed everywhere!)

The last few photos are of the Bug getting his Elmo Live from Angel and Ben - he was completely enthralled with it!!

Look at these guys, aren't they adorable!!

The sweetest little family, ...

and another one on the way - Yayy!

The model is three months pregnant!

It talks and dances and sings, he loves it!

That's all for now, hope you are all well and healthy. Don't forget the Jingle Sox give-away, please comment if you would like to win!!

Hugs
