Babyramen

Catching up on blogs I read late last night and I had to post about Hanne from Babyramen- also I am a succour for a giveaway! Below are some pics from her blog and some things from her shop that I LOVE. Its got to be green for me!

I have read Hanne's blog for a while now- she has a super smart home and great china! - She is from Oslo and you can read her blog here.

Back Home Again

We are just back today from two fab weeks of holidays. We stayed at both these lovely barns. The first one is Lukes Barn near Hawes in North Yorkshire and the second Nether Barr Steading in Dumfriesshire. I have so much to post about, the kids birthdays, D's birthday, great day trips, amazing charity shop finds (wouldn't be a holiday without at least some charity shops!). Some really really lovely pressies that the kids received. In time I will get on with it- but for now laundry!

Katvig

Isn't this top just gorgeous! Well its actually a wee bodysuit. I am seriously considering it for Nevie. I have always been frustrated by the selection of boys clothes you get in this country and Finn had a lot of Katvig as a consequence. Funnily enough when I was looking through the boxes of his clothes for things that Nevie could wear I found lots of Katvig and Mini Rodini which are 'properly' unisex- Hurrah! You can always rely on the Scandi's to do kids clothes well. I get mine from Nordic Kids- you should check it out they have a great range of stuff.

Rainy Tuesday

I don't work Tuesdays, so its always a busy fun day with the bubbas. Today was so, so wet- so we were in most of the afternoon. We played, we cooked Estofado via Bluebird Vintage blog for tea, we made a collage for Finn's nursery of his favourite things, and we found homes for the kids new glass animals (found in a charity shop at the weekend). Its definitely changing seasons this week- I can see the leaves blowing around the garden as I write!

Dusk over Glasgow

This is the view over the city from our bedroom window. It was dusk at the end of last week and an amazing sky- I just got round to uploading it now. I was just a wee bit late for the most amazing colours while I got the kids down. This was what was left when I ran upstairs- and its not too shabby a sight.

Frances Bean

Isn't she beautiful? I came across these images last night. Being a child of grunge, her parents music is really important to me. I was and will always be the biggest Courtney apologist.

I had always felt the weight of expectation, probably negative, on this girl. Thats why I was so happy to see these pictures. She looks in control, self contained- I love the look, the ink and the attitude.

New Cup!

The top cup is a recent Ebay purchase that arrived today- I thought it was a mug but it is actually a wee tea cup. Oh well, its a nice design and was pennies, so its added to the collection!
