So here is what Ralph got me for my birthday - two sets of cutting templates (ovals and mixed shapes), a cutting mat and the blades - all from Creative Memories. My friend who sells the Creative Memories stuff threw in the tape dispenser with some tape as a little birthday gift from her.
Here is the cool bag Mum sent down with her big box of stuff, it is just the right size to hold Heidi's PECS folder (seen on the right). I love the pink trim on this bag.
I'm finally happy with our daily routine board and have most of the pictures printed, laminated and velcro'd ready for use. Unfortunatly the girls attacked the board with permanent marker before I got it up out of their reach, hence the black scribbles.
My indoor stitching space. It is in the middle of our lounge room right under the ceiling light so I can see what I'm doing. Notice the cup of coffee and block of chocolate - my stitching essentials. I even got on the treadmill in the background last night.
They joys of playschool. All four children (L-R nephew N, Heidi, Nephew M and Annie) were running around like crazy until the Playschool opening music started, they promptly collapsed on the couch and stayed there for oh a good 5 minutes :grin:
Heidi in her blanket covered cubby house. Finally calm and silent after screaming from 5.30am to 11am - an no she hadn't lost her voice.
Birthday presents. Mundial knife block and knives from Mum and Dad. Coffee Machine from SIL L.

Reasons not to watch too much DYI type television whilst your children are around - Annie decided to redecorate our bathroom floor using towels for tiles.
