We won!!

An Onbag!!!! I'm sooooooo excited :D We did a raffle on my BWing board in exchange for a donation to a children's charity as these are early samples/seconds that can't be sold. It's a specially made babywearing bag and they're amazing. Sarah, the woman that makes them, has the pattern online for other people to make and is super sweet. I'm so excited, I never win anything!! And, everyone that participated donated to their favourite charity, so tons of kids will now be better off. YAY!

Eeek!

Here's the backstory before I start on the "Eeek!". Since April this year, my next-door neighbours have been complete a-holes. Playing music until 5 or 6 in the morning, extremely loudly, so my and Raf were woken up and kept up all night. Not great. I put up with it until July (I know, wth was I thinking?) when I called out environmental health and filed a complaint. It's taken four months to catch their antics on the recording equipment they put in my house as they always managed to conveniently go out on the weekends the mic was there. Coincidence? I think not. Anyway, on bonfire night they started up again, and I caught them!! Now, the environmental health guy has finished analysing the recording and is coming to talk to me about it this afternoon! Which must mean that there's something on the tape as all the other times he's just called to say there was nothing there (which I knew anyway). I'm nervous! I hope they catch the guy because I seriously can't deal with getting woken up like that again. It always happens right after I've been working 9 or 10 hour days too. ARGH! Wish me luck and hope they caught something!!!!

Raf needs your help!


We went to a baby show this weekend and a photographer took a pic of Raf and had it entered into the beautiful baby competition!! If you have a spare minute, could you vote for him? Obviously he's the cutest baby there ;)

Here he is: http://stourvalleyphotography.co.uk/svp_comp/v/BBC439.jpg.html

Future UN peacekeeper?

Raf's new favouritest word in the world ever is...






"Peace". He says it alllll the time. I love it!!

He LOVES that Ringo Starr video where he keeps saying "I am warning you, with PEACE and LOVE, PEACE and LOOOOOVE!". It was on the news for days, he'd keep kissing the screen and trying to mimic him, it was hilarious :)

I'm MAD! (And not in a good way!)

Tonight is bonfire night. Joy. Several hours of loud bangs as craploads of fireworks go off, waking up my baby every five minutes. So not funny!!!
