This has been one heck of a week, lol, with the shop opening on Tuesday, and then the Great Down Under Nappy Hunt starting on Wednesday. But I’ve finally had a chance to sit down this morning, and download the photos from my camera, so here it is!

Firstly, the view from the front of the shop - thanks to everyone who sent me photos of their gorgeous babies to put in my front window!



This is the current fabric stash - there’s more to come soon, including bamboo!!
(model doesn’t come included with fabric purchases, lol, sorry!)



And of course, everyone’s favourite part of the shop - the nappies!!







the cupcakes photo is especially for Carmen! :P

Now I have lots of people I want to thank, so please bear with me!!

Firstly my darling long suffering husband Mark, who has put many hours of painting etc into the setup of the shop! (and has also put up with the deteriorating state of our house while I’ve been focused on other things, lol!) And my children Rhiannon, Michael, Lukas and Ben, who probably still think mum is insane and never talks about anything except the shop and nappies! ;) My parents - Dad who built all my shelves and cutting table, and Mum who looked after the kids many times so that Mark and I could work without distractions, and who also came round to the shop on Monday night and helped get everything out onto the shelves! (it was a *very* late night!)

Donna, Lesley and Shane (plus family) who have helped the whole way along with ideas and practical help (especially Shane who rescued me from the flat-pack furniture nightmare, lol!) I’ve got photos from one of the working bees to upload when I get a chance!

My friend Margaret, who listens to me whinge via IM late at night, and even *likes* putting together the dreaded flat-pack furniture :P

All the other WAHMs both irl and online who have listened to me talk and let me bounce ideas off them over the last few months - thankyou - you know who you are! And those who have supported me by sending me stock to sell!

I’ll be updating the shop pages soon, with more details of what’s in stock, and what’s still to come.

Hope to meet many more of you in the coming weeks!

Yes, well, this week has been challenging to say the least!

I made the mistake of trying to make a couple of modifications to the shopping cart on my site…
aarrgghh!!
However, with a bit of help from MrCherub’sKiss (thanks Shane!) I think I’ve got it mostly sorted again. (phewww!)
(note to self - never try to modify your site in the first week of the Nappy Hunt!!)

So now I just need to get some serious sewing done to complete an order before Tuesday (don’t you love deadlines!) and then can concentrate on stocking my own store for the last half of the month!

Anyway, to end on a happy note, I thought I’d put up a picture of Ben that I took after his shower tonight.
