RIP little Franchesca :(

One of our fishies died :(
It's so sad! Poor Fernando is now very lonely.
Pete went to feed our babies and little Franny was lying upside down in the bottom of her tank. Am I very pathetic for crying over a fishy? Let's put it down to pregnancy hormones shall we?
Pete buried her in our garden.
She was such a lovely fishy - she was black when we got her, and when we took her on holidays to Noosa she turned orange! She had big googly eyes and loved playing in the bubbles. We've had her for nearly two years.
We need to get our little Fernando a new friend I think. Poor sad fishy.

New Blog Look...

What do you think?
I'm liking it!

I'm a terrible procrastinator. Why do they insist on making assignments so hard??? Why not just tell us what you want instead of leaving us to decipher your meanings??? Why can't you make it relevant to our future career??? No teacher would ever do something like this in real life, my mentor teacher laughed out loud when she looked at our assignment sheet.

*chants to self* : three more weeks, three more weeks, three more weeks

New Cross stitch

How cute!!!
I'm not sure whether to make it into a cushion for bub's room or to frame it.... what do you think?

Sewing and bump!

So after umming and aahing about what to do with that pretty material, I decided to make a skirt. Irealised that I have many shirts, and 1 pair of pants that fit well, and 2 pairs that don't. So I'm really in more of a need for bottoms than tops!
I made it with a shirred waist - so it will continue to fit my growing bump - and it has a cute frilly bit on the bottom. I'm very happy with it. It needs to be washed, as the material is sitting a little stiffly, but all in all I'm stoked!! Not bad for $10 :) And I have enough material to make another skirt!

So here are some pics...

Ooh and a side-on shot - I think my belly has grown even more!!
