Time for a giveaway !



About time... I hear you cry.
Yes I am having my first giveaway,  this was planned for reaching 100 followers but has taken me a while to get it sorted.

First prize will be this beautiful sewing box...



...a rose corsage, 2 note books, 2 bath melts and a heart decoration.

There will also be a runners up prize of 2 pretty note books and a rose corsage.

All I ask of you is that you leave me a lovely comment... how easy is that !!  An extra chance to win if you mention my giveaway on your blog, just let me know you have done it.

Well it's been over a week since my last post and most of that time has been spent cleaning up wee !!  Yes that is right, puppy and toddler wee, I decided to toilet train Isla-Rose and Dudley at the same time.  Today I saw light at the end of the tunnel, after a trip out to the garden centre I returned to find a clean puppy and Isla-Rose has been wearing big girl pants for 3 days, Hoorah !!
Thank goodness for wooden floors and kitchen roll.

Forgot to mention the giveaway ends on 16th March, This will also be my little mans birthday.

Speak soon xx

Wow you are brave training Dudley and Isla-Rose (gorgeous name by the way, little Esme is Esme Rose :-)) at the same time! I bet you are shattered. Hope little man has a fab birthday, his birthday is the same day as mine, I am wishing for sunshine as a present :-)
