Craftygranny - hope your son gets sorted out soon and it is nothing serious. So glad to hear about the girls doing fantastically well.

Mad-Frog - your fruit bouquet was stunning - not surprised it was eaten so quickly!

Flourgirl hope you find some fab bargains today. I'm hoping to get to the papermill shop over the weekend but don't know which day yet.

Rainmac Hope the boys are feeling better today and they don't itch too much.

It's so not funny but i woke up this morning and i've completely lost my voice. It was going last night but today nothing lol. Oh well at least it'll be quiet today .

The Wife . Princess Kaitlyn is really well she's having great fun helping find out what carly can and can't hear. She gets to make loads of noise with everything lol. At least she's happy and unaware of all the carp we're still getting from her dad but hopefully that'll all be over soon and We won't need to move .

PepPop doesn't that bug look gorgeous! Not seen that before.

I loved it too especially with the matching cutter. I can't justify the extra cash when the snot green one will do me nicely though.

Thanks Padster for the link cos I've just noticed their shop is in Blantyre.!!:j I'm gonna phone to check that they've got them instore and then I can pop in tomorrow :T I'm excited now!!! (Another craft shop for me to wonder round OH is gonna be soooo pleased ) My weeks holiday is gonna be fun now.

Craftygranny big hugs to you and yours today and I hope you're all doing ok. Loved the stories about Alicia and Carly - don't little ones just make you smile.

I'm still on the cuttlebug mission and for all you blue people have you seen this one.

Ooohhh look at that, it's gorgeous, this one would be what I'd want as I love blue x

My monkeys are no better but no worse, so getting on each others' nerves though. Think the spots are causing them more problems today so going to give them some Piriton soon to help. Going for a drive to DS2's preschool to drop off some paperwork (I'm the secretary and have done an Easter Quiz for them to sell to parents to raise a bit of money) and then going to take the boys to McDonald's (drive-through) for lunch. So they get a trip out and their fave food but won't come into contact with anyone (and I get 5 minhutes peace from the bickering about who's playing with what/watching what on TV etc etc)

I spent all last night making one card using a beautiful girlie image Rusty sent me. I loved making the card and found it very therapeutic after a hellish day with 2 spotty boys! It's on my blog x

Just popped on quickly to send craftygranny big hugs, hope your twin is better soon!! I think I must have passed over all of my bad luck from last year!!!

Rainmac - Hope your boys are behaving themselves!!

I have DS home today, he has been up most of the night screaming and crying but everytime I went into him he was asleep!! he is really pale and not very well at all, OH says it sounds like he has flu as he is aching all over aswell and hasn't much energy!! DD had me up through the night aswell with her coughing so hard she was sick, so I ended up having her in bed with me from 3am this morning!! ... luckily I was in bed for 9pm so managed to get a few hours of unbroken sleep before they both started!!

Hoping everyone else is ok, sending hugs to those who need/want them! xx

I'll have an apple pie and a hot choc, I don't really do McD's and if I do I have a chicken nugget happy meal

Craftygranny - so sorry to hear of your new worries- but I'm thrilled to hear that Alicia is doing so well.

I have to say I'm having a chuckle at all you girls and the coloured bugs - I think my DH is quite pleased that I don't mind a mismatched craft room! Mind you if they brought out a purple one that would be a different matter altogether!

I'm enjoying Folksy at the moment-so far have bought a gorgeous bracelet after I saw the one that NEGirl had - and a lovely heart shaped red notice board -will blog them later. I think I will only ever give people hand made gifts from now on - even if I'm not the one makng them!

Enjoy the sunshine everyone - I've got a lovely bubbly Friday feeling today - can't wait to do the 1st school run so I've got some little boy company (must be mad!)
