Where the weathers been shitty!!!
The kids have been on their summer hols for a week now with their dad, and they've managed to see most of Dublin. Today after an early morning doctors app for my eldest (he's having minor surgery in 38 days but I'm still petrified), I stayed with them and we toured some more of the city.
We went to city hall, dublin castle and the chester beatty library.
Two photos :)
My youngest is learning how to ride a two wheeler with stabilisers, it's not going too well but we're persevering!
....... and has been for a few weeks now!! The bad mother that I am forgot to post a pic..
So please find a pic of my 4 year old wonkey donkey (head of a donkey, tail of a giraffe!!) whom I find absolutely delicious and could squish all day everyday!
I LOVE you big guy :)
My eldest squashing my youngest and poking his finger in his ear...................and my youngest finding it hilarious!!
I was asked by a friend of mine who's grandson had undergone heart surgery as a newborn if I would make a blanket for Crumlin hospital.
When an infant, child or teenager has to have heart surgery they are given a handmade blanket to comfort them (like in snoopy) and they get to keep it forever. That a person has cared enough to handmake it for someone adds to the story.
So here's a 'Handmade by Kathryn' blanket for a special baby in Crumlin hospital, I hope you get better soon whom ever you are.
If you have the time perhaps you could make one too, or even donate material or indeed money to this great cause.
