Happy New Year! What an action-packed year you've had! It sounds amazing! I don't think I'd realised you'd only started your blog this year; and you've made it such a success.
ReplyDeleteAww thanks Jen! I still feel like a small fish (or maybe duck) in a very big pond but I've really enjoyed blogging and finding other blogs to read :-) x
DeleteWhat a busy year! Here's to an even better 2014- will be keeping my fingers crossed for you re: IVF :) xxx
ReplyDeleteThanks Katie! I will keep everyone updated one way or another, depending on how it all goes - but I will definitely let you all know somehow :-) xxx
DeleteYou've had a lush year, m'dear! I've loved following your adventures, and I'm looking forward to more in 2014! xx
