Luke is now 1!

Can’t believe my little boy is now 1 and has gone from this :-

to this :-

Luke turned 1 on May 19th and we had a lovely day taking him to Africa Alive in Kessingland.  I still think he is a little young to appreciate it, but he liked being outdoors and spending time with Mummy and Daddy and that is the most important!

I love his cake and here it is :-

Here are some random shots of Luke over the last few weeks, hope you enjoy!

 Trying to encourage Luke to play in the garden!

Lukes first trip to Nandos!

New Shoes !

First walk on Felixstowe beach

First braai

Finally a lovely picture of Mummy and Luke!

Looking back I just can’t believe how much Luke has developed over the last 6 weeks and is still developing!  Since taking these pictures he can now stand up on his own and start walking and is almost running! 

Motherhood is wonderful and I love it, even more so as my little boy is an angel!

Craft update.

I have been doing quite a bit of knitting over the last few weeks, on various different projects! 

I managed to get some 9″ circulars in 2.5mm size for socks, which I just love from Hiya Hiya, so am currently trying socks on them!  I am currently knitting the Pea Sock on them, but not doing the pea pattern!

 I have done alot more since this picture was taken!

Next on my needles is Fetchings from Knitty.com   I am really enjoying knitting these and not finding the cable as hard as I thought!  These are knitted using Debbie Bliss Rialto Aran and is just lovely to knit with!

Fuzzy Feet are going well, I have done one and have started the second one!   These are oversized as when they are both done, I will then throw them in the washing machine with a pair of jeans and felt them, so they shrink, to the right size!  That is the theory anyway!  The yarn used for these is Cascade 220 Quatro and is a joy to knit with!

Glace is going well, once my mother, bless her, sorted out my mistake for me!  What would we do without our mothers!  I really need to update my photos as I am now on the second side, about the add all the stitches together to start the back!  Yarn used :- Jaegar Extra Fine Merino Aran.

I knitted a Pidgy Podge as well, that was really quick and easy, but used up some I otherwise would never use!  Sirdar Bigga

I have bought some yarn recently, but all have been for projects in mind, so watch this blog.

I also have Bainbridge Scarf on my needles but not got round to photographing it yet!

Quick update, before indepth one!

My last post was April 18th, which I am totally amazed at.  I do think I need to start updating on a  weekly basis to keep to update!  So a quick summary of the last 6weeks :-

Luke started walking – properly!

I knitted a few more things!

We went to Peterborough for the weekend

Luke turned 1! I turned 35!

Now to do some indepth updates!
