Hello world

Well hello everyone, its been way too long since I blogged. To say I have had my hands full is an understatement.

Baby bucko arrived a day early thank goodness I was ready to pop.  We had a beautiful baby girl, we are very lucky she is generally very happy and is sleeping well.  She has been a little fractious with the current heat but is such a happy little thing. She has had one completely nightmare day and that was on my birthday (yeah thanks for that little one).

We have had our first family holiday. We went to Bluestone in Pembrokeshire. I had been before with my friend but it has improved greatly since then with its facilities. The cottages are getting a little tired but apart from that fantastic. It is quite family orientated with lots of things for the children to do of all ages. We took Baby Bucko to baby sensory while we were there as she is used to going when we are home and she loved it here too and enjoyed having her dad there as well.

Parenting is the hardest job in the world but definitely the most rewarding. You also learn fast that each parent is trying their best and never judge what they are doing to make things work. Nothing can prepare you for how hard it is being parents, as long as you work together, have a strong relationship and communicate well, you can get through it and enjoy yourselves.

Digger Cake

For the fantastic Mr Bus’ birthday I decided to make him a digger cake and I have to say I was very pleased with the results, it also took less time to make than I had anticipated.

This I then cut in half and placed one half on top of the other to work out the length of the cab, roughly half again.   I used butter icing to hold them together and then placed butter icing all over for the ready to roll icing to go on top.  With the extra square of cake left from making the main body and cab of the digger, I scooped out the middle section to create the digger bucket, then covered this in butter icing and ready roll icing on top. I iced the main body of the digger and the bucket and then attached the bucket using two rolls of icing for the arms.   I used a food colouring pen for the initial detail on the digger and filled the bucket with rainbow drops and popping candy.   I placed melted...

The Afternoon Teas Have Returned....Cheltenham

Hurrah, at long last the delightful afternoon teas have returned and it was kick started with a meet up with the Biffa's (self given name for my little group of lovely ladies).  We decided to meet up in Cheltenham as it's roughly half way between Bridgend and Stafford along with being a nice place. We decided to rendezvous at the Cheltenham park and ride.  I have to say one of my main priorities when visiting any where is that they have a decent easy to get to park and ride.  I mean, why battle with the inner town systems of somewhere you haven't a clue when you can just park up and jump on a bus which does the stressful bit for you. On arrival into the town we got our bearings by heading to the nearest decent looking pub and as we were driving the strongest thing we opted for was caffeine.  Still it gave us chance to have a natter, exchange some gifts and decide where we wanted to go and if anyone had anything in particular they wanted to get.     ...
