As I am soon to be a Nan I thought it was about time I designed a baby blanket. I started it last September when we went away in Minnie, then it went on the back burner for a while but the baby due date was getting closer so I am pleased to say I finished it well in time which for me was a major achievement!
I also made a Rabbit because Megan
is crazy about Peter Rabbit. after searching for a pattern for a Peter
Rabbit I couldn't find one I really liked and some were quite expensive, I
didn't want to pay so much for a pattern I didn't really like so in the end I
found a lovely Rabbit pattern and I modified the pattern to give him a white
tummy and a blue jacket.
As I am writing this Blog we literally have days to wait until Charlie arrives. Actually it isn't going to be Charlie, Megan and Justin don't even know what sex their baby is going to be, they chose to wait for the surprise. But I call it Charlie, when she comes round I speak to her belly and Say Nanny's here Charlie 🤣 I'm pretty sure to me this baby will always be nicknamed Charlie.
In February we went to Meg's Baby shower. I wasn't feeling too good so Steve went to pick my Mom up and just as he pulled up on the drive it started to snow, within half an hour it was white over. He drove us to the shower as I'm not a fan of driving in the snow. ⛄
I've never been to a baby shower before it was lovely, all very Peter Rabbit themed I might add.
Doesn't everywhere look pretty in the snow.

Meet Woody,
As this post is more about baby Charlie and my new design I won't talk about Woody, but needless to say he is a huge part of our life now. I will do a blog about him. I really need to get my bum in gear and blog more.
I am sure if you follow me on Instagram you are up to date with Woody and his antics.
So thats all for now folks
