It's My Blogiversary and A Giveaway

I just looked in my archives to see what I was up to in February last year and discovered that on this day one year ago I started my blog!

I wish I had a new layout to post on my blogiversary but the only things I have been making are a valentines card (that's a bit rubbish unfortunately) and playing with inks on scrap card which I have now cut into ATC sized pieces but have no clue what to do with them!

I had planned on scrapping tonightbut Izzy is poorly. Half way through Eastenders she started crying, I went up to see her and she had been really sick. Poor little thing was so miserable looking and was all shakey. Darren was of course super helpful (or not) and declared himself unable to deal with sick so muggins here had to clear it all up and get the washing on.

Anyway, let's hope it was just a one off thing. As an indicator of how poorly she was feeling I had to put Mr Monkey in the washing machine and we put the spare monkey in the freshly changed cot... she didn't even notice.

Anyway, enough about sick.

I can't believe I have been blogging for a whole year. It is pretty cool to be able to look back and see what I was doing when, I am also amazed how many people stop by and read my blog and some even take time to post a comment. I don't know quite why I find this surprising, I love reading other peoples blogs and try and leave a comment every so often, but I guess it surprises me that my blog is in the least bit interesting to anyone!!!!

So, as I seem to be getting quite a few hits at the moment post CHA I guess some people must be reading so I thought I would give some goodies away to celebrate my "blogiversary!" Just post a comment on this post and I will pick a name out of a hat to get a little box of goodies - not sure what but I like sending presents!


Anyway, thanks for coming by and reading \ posting comments, I'm looking forward to the next years worth of blogging!

Hi Mel
Happy Blogibirthday! Sorry to hear you've had to deal with a pukey infant. My worst ever sick incident was with my oldest daughter. She was about two years old. I was carrying her upstairs after supper and she threw up all down my back and in my hair, which was long at the time. I'll never forget having to shower it out with half-digested food washing into the bath. Sorry for being gross, but even 13 years later, the memory's vivid!
Best wishes,
Antonia S-H
