Living Doll!

Having seen her on several blogs and being sent an e mail link by Victoria I had my heart set on buying a Pottery Barn Kids Sophie doll for my little princess when we visited Florida.


That's her in the middle!
Sadly Sophie was not enamoured with her namesake, refusing to have it anywhere near her!

Sophie prefers 'Spot Splatter Splash'



A quirky looking 'Lala Loopsy' doll with button eyes and paint splattered clothes!
Typical for our little girl!!

I like both but would have to agree with Sophie
Which do you prefer?

Florida............

As promised some of our Holiday snaps!
Just a few while I work out why some are missing from my camera! (Or I'm just going to have to go back!!)

Green Beer on St Patricks day


 And Sophie's first park.......Sea World!

 
 

 

 

 


 A great start!

Victory..............


While I gather my thoughts (and photos) from Florida I thought I'd share a picture my 'victory roll' hairstyle for the 40's party I attended!
I watched a tutorial on line and this was my second attempt.  I was really pleased with the result and it was really comfortable and felt really feminine, next time I'd curl the back but I didn't have lots of time to get ready!
I had a great time and was fascinated by the clothes and hairstyles some of the ladies wore, I have been invited to another event in May and can't wait to go!

Brilliant Break!

Surely It's not been a month since I last posted?

Thank you to everyone who has e mailed to ask after us.  I really appreciate it and, of course, it's lovely to be missed!

We have just returned from a fantastic family holiday in sunny Florida! we had a lovely time and I can't wait to share some photos and, more importantly, the results of lots of lovely shopping!
for the time being we are recovering from our action packed fortnight, although some of us are more tired than others!


While she catches up on some sleep I'm going to catch up on your beautiful blogs!

I Want That One!

Sophie never fails to make us laugh at the fact she knows exactly what she wants and how to communicate it to us.  On a visit to Cath Kidston to choose a new pillowcase for her bedroom she didn't hesitate to point at the one she liked, nodding when I asked her if that was the one she wanted.  
Just to make sure I showed her another (less pretty) one at which she pulled a face, shook her head and pointed again!
As usual she got what she wanted!


I think it looks great!


Good choice Sophie!!!
