Ingredients: PP by Anna Griffin and TLC, Rhonna Farrer stamps, TLC chipboard, pearly beads, chiffon ribbon, Porcelain font.

Presenting... the Magness family

We've had some lovely visitors bearing lovely gifts! We're so thankful to God for the way he has looked after us these last few days! Though I'd share this pic...

Made a birthday card for a friend last night, so I'm itching to do some more! Making a tiara for a family friend who gets married in two weeks! So need to get that finished!

Nehemiah 3:7

Well, after much searching and deliberation... we've found a name!

We have to admit being a bit stuck for boys names as we've already had two! Ben was our top favourite, but somehow didn't seem quite right. Then, this morning, whilst tralling internet baby name sites we found Jadon, and it fits! He looks like a Jadon, it sounds good with Magness and the meaning is wonderful... God's beloved/friend or grateful, and is found in Nehemiah 3v7 as one of the rebuilders of the Temple. So the official name is Jadon Graham Ben Magness, Graham after my father and Ben as it was still a favourite, not least with Luke! Phew!

And now some pics!

It's a baby boy!

Yay... Praise the Lord!

Gory details to follow!

No sign of baby yet...

... and I'm still waiting...

Braxton's are getting tighter and a little bit more painful. Trying to think of all the little jobs that would be nice to get done...

I know the kitchen cupboards need a clean, and the bathroom too... also have a tiara and hairclips to make. Maybe once they're done baby will decide to arrive...

Trying to take Arnica regularly to keep me calm. And so enjoying eating lots of chocolate biscuits!

Will let you know if anything happens...
