Bit of an odd Bloggy Summer...

My summer here has been a bit off kilter, to say the least...I suppose it was my extended holiday in the UK that did it...
But I don't seem to have got over it..blog-wise..I've taken loads of photos but not been able to sit down and put them in any order.
Another reason is I'm still working away from home at night.
So, I'm still trying to catch my tail!
So, hence...some bits and pieces from over the summer months.
Our vines have finally made it up to the first floor, sadly, the grapes were no good!
A lovely ceramic display from some friends of mine, it was a great success.
We also managed to have a bag tutorial by Jenny..
Dominic had a wonderful birthday party!
.....and this quilt managed to get to England
More soon.....

The Arrival....

The day finally arrived and we welcomed Lirys Erin into the world.
We were all very tired and emotional after a long labour and a sudden emergency c section.
But just look at Bethan's face!!
Matt's first cuddle.
And mine!

Then there was some much needed skin to skin contact .
Lirys decided it was all too much and went to sleep in her Daddy's arms.
Isn't she gorgeous???

Uncle Gareth came to visit and you can see he was overjoyed!!
It didn't take too long before he was having lessons on nappy changing....
Lirys was 7lb 3ozs and was born on the 29th June ..
