Feeling like a sloth, on a rainy day in July?

So the fuzzies went on a walking with bio-father, and mummy was left with all the baby sitting. Mary left instructions for specific toys, Matty texted to ask if hers were ok, and when I looked at Daisy's collection of favourites I saw that her newest toy had a note for me and Mike ...

I love him so much I desided to ask daisy if we could collaborate on a little project. She thought that was a fabulous idea so on a wet Saturday I had my paints out. Some of the paints pre date all my children. 

Eventually, layering paint and chalk, tracing and collating and embellishing just a little, a new sloth was born.

I'm going to varnish him tomorrow when the PVA is really dry and then I'll hang him up. I can't wait for daisy to see him! But then, I shouldn't try to hurry things. After all, a sloth knows how to chill...

flowers in all the snow ....

a bit of inspiration came in the post, usually the junk mail we get is 'read' by matty and daisy, but i stole this pretty picture, with thoughts of spring around the corner ....

the fourth of the fourth .... (picture in the folder)

the fourth folder is called '000scanner' and looked like baby scans, but also contains 3 awful polaroids of when daisy and matty got measured for first shoes. they had been walking for 4 moths and winter was coming ...
was tempted to post 5th pic as well - but left it propper - the 5th is matty looking equaly non plussed !

so now, having been tagged by bunny (when life hands you scraps) im going to tag only 2 people, because i come and go from the pc all the time and sometimes cane fiddle with lists and html ...

both of these peoples blogs need a kick up the bum, so come on silver seams and molly chicken - show us your 4th of the 4th ! but only if its not rude
these are also two bloggers i admire, just in case they think i am too rude...
