Calendar, DDA and Josh update

Here are the first of my advent calendar drawers. It's been a bit of a challenge as when I got into double numbers I didn't have much scope for decorating. Oh well, we learn by our mistakes!

I got my DDA put together, but no doubt I will have to move pages around a bit. I haven't added any embellishments yet, as until I journal and get some photo's it's difficult to know where to put them.

All of the pages are different sizes, shapes and colours.


Some have extending flaps, some have pockets.


Some are acrylic.



But all of them are just begging to be embellished, and I can't wait. I have enjoyed this so much. I only hope I can manage to keep up with it each day, we'll see...........



And here's the other man in my life!!!!!!! Four months on and growing almost by the minute!!!
He's having more 'nasty injections ' tomorrow, but it has to be done. Faye was happy saying that these were his last ones until he gets to a year old, but after a visit to the Doc's tonight, (I splashed Loo cleaner in my eyes, don't ask)! I was told they will be giving babies flu jabs at six months now. Oh well........


Isn't he just 'yummy'? I love him in this hat. It goes lovely with his teddy coat. He's certainly getting his wear out of this, thanks Deb Deb XXX

This ones for you Kate!!!!!!!!! Hope you like em!
I'll hopefully be back tomorrow, and pigs might fly!
