Hand Knitted Baby Clothes
I just love this cute photo of Imogen when she was a baby. The expression of delight on her face as she’s sitting and dancing with her arms, it makes me giggle each time.
She’s wearing a hand knitted cardigan from her talented Great Grandmother. There’s something so unique about hand knitted baby clothes and babies look adorable in them.
If you don’t know someone who can knit your baby a handmade item of clothing there’s plenty of knitwear that looks just as good as Grandma’s hand knitted baby clothes.
You can buy these online at Liberty London Baby & Childrenswear, Joules Baby Clothing and John Lewis Baby & Toddlerwear. Some of my favourites are here:
John Lewis – Baby Cable Knit Cardigan
John Lewis – Baby Cable Knit Cardigan
John Lewis – Absorba Hooded Poncho
Stella McCartney Kids – Baby Blue Striped Knitted Jacket
Joules – Baby Gretal Fair Isle Cardigan
These cardigans and jumpers can be bought online at Liberty London Baby & Childrenswear, Joules Baby Clothing and John Lewis Baby & Toddlerwear.

Holiday Memories from France
Winter’s approaching so I’ve found some photos to share with plenty of sunshine. Just looking back over these photographs evokes happy memories of sunny days.
In May this year we spent a week’s holiday in Brittany, France. It’s one of our favourite holiday destinations.
What do I love about Brittany? The slower pace of life, the friendly people, the stunning scenery, the local markets, French wine and the focus that’s placed on the importance of family.
Here are some of the amazing memories we have of Brittany’s beautiful environment and the fun we had together as a family.
