Some More Bloggity Blog Players

OK we have some more players in the game.

Jodie (jodie) on her blog listed these blogs......

Lanne's blog - There is some pretty good photography on here and at the moment some cool birthday ideas that could easily be adapted for girls as well.

Musings Of A Scrappin' mom - This lady has seven kids and homeschools them. There has got to be some inspiration there! And it is well written.

Sharons blog Artistic Musings - Ah well what can I say! She is a designer has my name or really I have hers and her gallery is FANTASTIC! There is usually a freebie on there as well. But then shes the next person that played the game so there is a list of her fav blogs on there as well.

Fresh and Vintage - You HAVE to check this one out if you love and appreciate designs. This one is probably more for sewers but wow! There is some really nice stuff on here for sure.

Shabby Miss Jenn - You have to know who this is right?? Well for those that done and love shabby designs for digi LO's this is one for you. She is right up there with Shabby Princess AND Jodie is on her CT. Lucky duck!!!

Anna's blog { just me thinking } - Jodie says it best "the queen of white space" She really has a great gallery to look at. Go and check this one out for some inspiration.

Peta's blog Crazy Little Me - Another PBP designer who has great designs and a bubbly personality which really comes through on her blog.

Oh and btw Jodie has a great blog as well and shows off what can be done with SMJ's designs too. She ALSO has a great sense of white space!

What Blogs Do Other People Like

Ok as per the last post I am doing the Bliggity Bloggity Boo Round #2 at PBP. So I thought it might be interesting to type up a bit of a list of what blog some other PBP chickie like. I will just come back and update this post as more people add to the list.

Kate (katef) on her blog listed these blogs that she liked.....

* Kylie Clark's blog A*muze*ing - I went and had a look and I just love the photos there. She is a designer at FPD and she has some freebies on her blog as well. Although FPD fans would know that already. I had never come across it and I'm glad I did. I signed up for her newsletter :)
* Azure's blog azure of subrbia - Is a common sense account of her everyday life. Also you have to check out the "bom chicka wah wah" add. Worth the laugh for sure.
* Simply Recipes Food and Cooking blog - I didnt get to far looking around here as I just know I would be stuck there for a VERY long time but there are some pretty tasty looking recipes on there. I have it book marked to look at for sure.

Another Blog I like

Its been a while since I had added a blog in here for others to have a look at as well so here is one. This is a real ripper for sure. It really makes me wish I could write.

Anyway some of you may have seen this auction on Ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayIAAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130144061675&ru=http%25 and if you hadn't I suggest you go and check it out asap before its no longer available. I'm not sure if she has added it to her blog or not (have only started reading it lately) but its a fantastic read and a warning...dont laugh so hard you wet yourself :) You have to love a good blog with good writing and someone who hasn't completely lost it with kids. And here is a link to her blog: Because I Said So


That is it for me tonight. I still have 2 LO's to do for CT's requirements and everything went flying out the window with my time schedule when I jumped (<--read staggered) into bed on Sunday night and DH was burning up with a fever. Two days later and I had three sickies on my hand. So far so good and MacKenzie and I are well.....*phew* So now its rush, rush and no kinder tomorrow for Amey. Although thats not a bad thing as it was a Fathers Day thing and DH wasn't able to make it due to work. I had to get a sub in the form of my FIL. Ok I really am going now!

SLACK!

Yep I have been shockingly slack! It does though take me a while to recover from Jack's birthday. THEN life got in the way....lol. I thought it was about time that I posted and there was a thread on PBP that made me decide its time enough.

So here is my fairy name. Since there is a Pickleberry Fairy I thought this was a cool idea....thanks Kate :) This would also make a good LO challenge...to one be able to find fairy elements for a LO but to do one with the below in it.

Your fairy is called Feather Hailfilter
She is a protector of the lonely.
She lives in high places where the clouds meet the earth.
She is only seen on midsummer's eve.
She wears pale blue like the sky. She has cheery turquoise wings like a butterfly.


We had our kinder fundraiser which was a Trivia Night and it seems to have gone REALLY well. We have a committee meeting this week so we should get how much we actually brought in. It was a pretty good night EXCEPT when we got home DH's mate (who was pissed) decided to sit on Amey's car seat. Only someone who had to much to drink and no idea about kids would think that a 100kg+ person could sit on a car seat with a weight limit of 25kgs. I take that back only someone who was drunk could think that.
Anyway the next day I HAD to go out and get another car seat (he paid for) for a very upset little girl.

The worst day of my life.......

Was today 3yrs ago. Our son Jack Riley was stillborn today after 3 days of labour at 20.3wks gestation. There isnt much to say but that it was a long and heartbreaking process that went over 10wks before we had him. There were some pretty severe complications and by the time I had him it was starting to get complicated for me physically as well.

It almost feels like it was yesterday and then other times it seems so long ago. I still miss him dearly even though we knew him for such a short time. There is still that child that is missing from our lives that will forever be apart of our family.

I like being able to talk about Jack in general conversation and being able to refer to him easily. And I do regularly although others seem to have a problem with it more than I do. But today its harder to talk about it all. This explains some of my emotions in a way....

Goodbye

I have just lost another CT. I knew it was going to happen. Im a little sad as Betty Jo was the first person that "asked" me to join because she liked my style not because I had applied to her team. I wish you all the best in your new adventures Betty Jo!

I sort of saw the background at one point and I think it had "Britian's Got Talent" Im just not 100% sure as they look shocked that his singing opera. The blog I saw this on said its the UK version of American Idol so if anyone knows let me know :)
