Update on my wee guy

Good evening all,
Sorry i don't have a card to post but i should be back tomorrow with a card but i'd thought i'd let you all know my wee guy John is doing alot better he was put on steroids on Wednesday and then on Thursday another trip to the doctor and he has been put on a steriod inhaler which has made is breathing so much better....you might even see my story in the newspapers soon if the council don't get there backside up here and sorts out the damp and rotten floorboards i have in this house i think this is causing some of my son's breathing difficulties i'm not a happy momma at the minute.

I would also like to say a BIG thank you to a dear blogging friend Shirley (nannieflash) for the blog candy i won i can't wait to get playing with it !!! 

Fingers crossed i will be back tomorrow with a card as John should be back at nursery and i will get some chilling time to get some cards done.

I hope everyone has had a lovely weekend...thank you for popping by.

Love and hugs Nikki xxxxxxx

Sorry i have not been around but as i mentioned in my last post my 4 year old son was taken into hospital lastweek with breathing difficulty's but thank goodness he is fully fit again had him at the doctors on Thursday and his chest is completely clear....so now i am going to get some serious crafting done my wonderful mum bought me a new printer on Friday and sent LOADS of my craft studio disc's through from Edinburgh so i have been sitting installing them into my laptop, so tonight i have managed to print out some lovely backing papers for my card tonight.

This card is for the Cute Card Thursday Challenge -  Reds for Remeberance

 My mum sent me the stamp for this card whom will hopefully be back blogging after Christmas fingers crossed anyway.

Today i actually attended the remeberace parade in Dundee City Centre as my daughter was in it she is now in the army cadets must say i am a very proud mum and sister as my 19 year old brother is currently doing a 6 month tour of afghan but he is back next Saturday for some well deserved  R+R so it will be good to see him.

Sorry i'm not about !!

Good Evening Ladies,

Sorry i am not posting a card and i probably won't be for a few days as my son got taken in to hospital on Wednesday night he is home now but it was a scary few days he actually ended up  in the HDU, he has a viral infection but he wasn't getting enough oxygen into his system he was on a heart monitor and oxygen mask but thankfully he is on the mend, so the next few days we are going to be relaxing and doing his physio to clear his chest i will hopefully get a couple of cards done and posted for the end of the weekif not i will be back at the start of next week

love and hugs Nikki xxxx
