Happy New Year !!
Can you believe its a new year? 2007 has gone and with it a year filled with both good and bad times. I am really looking forward to this year, so many milestone birthdays and events both for my family and friends.
I hope you had a great Christmas and a fantastic new year.
Christmas from what I can remember was wonderful (unfortunately I had a inner ear problem which saw me dizzy and spaced out for a couple of days!!). Emma and Madison were ridiculously spoiled and loved every minute of it. Emma especially enjoyed Christmas, leaving a special key out for Father Christmas because of our lack of a chimney for him to get in !!! Madison gooed and gaahed all day, totally adorable, and her first Christmas was full of adoration, kissed and hugs.
My good friend Roxanne, came over for 5 days directly after Christmas and we had a great time just relaxing, watching Cricket (sad but a fact), and talking the days away.
Just thought I would post some photos of my little ones, I love the one of Madison, she's getting so chubby and the hair has a mind of its own !!
This one of Emma, is the result of her latest craze - to obtain curls. Unfortunately her hair is dead straight, and plating it wet is the only way we can get some kind of movement in it !! Anyhow, she is going through a phase of experimentation, hair, makeup and clothes, and she is such a little girly girl.
Another photo of Madi, she is getting so strong now so can almost sit !!! They eyes are definately going to be brown just like her daddy's and believe me Daddy thinks its wonderful. She is really enjoying her own voice now, and can often be heard down the end of the house having a wonderful conversation with herself.
Just thought I would post these two layouts, they are in the Jan Issue of FK. My fav is the bottom one of Madi, her first layout in a magazine. I love her to bits.
Hope you all had a wonderful new year.
Steph xo

Oh that picture of Madi in the pink dress is just beautiful! Her eyes are really going to be a feature. I adore the butterfly LO, it was the highlight of that issue of the mag for me!
