Spicy tales of almost woe, with a giveaway to boot

Edie and I have been hanging out. Her Daddy is deep in assignment mode. He sometimes comes to bed at night ... but I am unsure when. He has become all nocturnal; a creature of the night crouching over light boxes with a constant background soundtrack of a clicking mouse. Yesterday morning was ugly - he left Edie alone for but a minute ... so she decided his design assignment needed some spicing up ... why not smatter it with an entire upended bottle of cajun spices ...and add some annotations with pencil. Thank god pencil ... easily salvagable. Dunc was more worried that his tutors would mark him down on aroma. He has a supersonic nose... this is an important consideration for him. He made mental note that storing prized assignments on floor when a toddler is around is not greatest filing cabinet option.

This morning Edie and I dropped him at the front door of the learning establishment, propped up by strong coffee and porridge...packed off with good luck wishes for presentations, but no lunch. We embarked on a more laid back morning of wet bums from dew soaked slides and rumbles in autumn's last leaves.

May I direct you to this fab giveaway. I really need some help with my html I tell you. Even knowing what it means would be a start. Go see the fabulous Laura - one week of her graphic design services sounds like heaven to me!!

Now I must fly - Edie slumbers and I should be at my sewing machine xx

And she looks ONLY sublimely gorgeous in that shot without a hint of mischief at all, at all! OK, maybe a smidge.

Hope the presentation went spiffingly well...

Oh, noooooo. I bet there were some naughty words at your house. Hope the sewing and the presentations went well.

And it only takes a second. Yesterday morning we had the incident of the toppled china cabinet - turned our backs and bambino was inside the cabinet and cabinet was on top of him. Can't blog about it as said cabinet is pride and joy of someone else, we just happen to be storing it, and I suspect that said ownder probably reads blog. Thanks for your offer of wee dress - yes please!!

Yikes! It's hard to stay angry with them when they look so cute though.

Oh and I now know what you mean about grabbing sewing time while baby sleeps!

I love this shot of Miss Edie! Am a bit jealous of how much fun it looks like she is having though!
