bits and bobbins

half-arsed maternity “leave”

no bebe royal…yet! her due date is friday.

umbilical cord hat
(a little hat i made for le bebe royal)

feeling no rumblings at all…well, maybe a few, but nothing big that makes it seem like her entrance into the world is imminent. what’s going on in there, girl?? *points at belly questioningly*

anyway…

i’ve decided i’m going to take a wee maternity “leave”, as i am trying to finish up some last minute personal things before she decides to arrive, and thus, i think blogging best take a back-seat, for now.

and perhaps for a bit after she’s here, of course. will be in the baby zone for a time!

which means a hiatus from some of the things i regularly post here, like (not so) random links and the wardrobe_remix(ers) o’ the week, for just a bit. hope you understand!

will keep you informed of her arrival…whenever that is!

love to all.

    The New York Style Magazine out today (August 17) mentions “Flickr’s wardrobe remix” in an article on fashion blogging but doesn’t include your name. Grrr.
