It’s been a while since I last posted. To think that one of my New Year’s Resolutions for the year was to blog at least once a week!
NY resolution FAIL!
I took an unplanned hiatus from actively managing Bean Sprout Bubba over the last few months since January. The last event I actively prepared for was the City of Bunbury Australia Day Fireworks Extravaganza Markets at the Bunbury foreshore.
Since then the store has been on maintenance mode with no active sewing (I packed and sent orders and met a few local clients), even through the March 2011 Nappy Hunt, due to a couple of ongoing ‘projects’ and a bout of sinusitis in early March.

Abi started Kindy this year, we’re homeschooling so it took nearly a whole term to get the hang of things.
I spent numerous nights researching homeschool subject options and now I’m more certain of the direction we’re heading with school, all set for the next 2-3 years up to Year 1 for Abi and even for Bri! I sure hope the time spent pre-planning for the girls’ education will be paid off in the next few months and years so that I can concentrate on Bean Sprout Bubba.

Little Calvin has grown a LOT as well in the past 3 months. From an extremely sleepy beginning when he was born, he is now a happy, alert, shrieking, active 9kg baby boy at 6 months old.
He loves staring at his left hand all the time
Suffice to say his sudden progress to alertness has taken some adjustment not just for me, but for the girls as well.
They have been very patient with me as we take turns to entertain the happy little guy as the girls and I run around the house doing minimal errands to reasonably keep house.

I have so much to tell you about this year, and would like to introduce a couple of awesome people I have met and clicked with during the last 3 months.
I have plans on hold for new Bubba J and ecoBumba products. I hope I can attain at least 50% of my grand plans this year, and carry out the rest in the year to come.

With that I’ll leave you to it. And I promise to blog a bit more than the past three months!
