It's all came about because of the MIL decision not to look after Baby G. It's a big life changing decision for us all but I am pleased that it will mean that it will be me bringing up our babies and also that we can look for a house with a lawn where they can play although it will mean down sizing quite a bit. If I could pick up this house and put it in the middle of a field then that would be perfect but I don't think that that will happen-pity.
We are looking at an area close to where Hub works as that will give us a big saving on bus and taxi fares as he will be able to walk to there and back and will also mean that he will have a little bit more time to spend with us. Also our energy bills should also drop.
So there you go...
On the WIP front not a lot has happened as I have been working on the house, getting it ready but here are a few pics
The sun and the tree have been sewn
The letters have been sewn
Dinosaur - not sewn
Also , playing with Milo
All his own work and christened Mr Happy

We are considering the move closer to work option as well, it's not easy is it.
loving all your WIP's, that dino is so cute!
Oh! How exciting (adn stressful!). I am so happy to hear that things are going how you wish. I love being at home with my boys and am so thankful that I can do so. Best wishes to you all. You're boys are just too cute. Oh - and the WIP is coming along nicely too.
Lisa, you have a lovely little family there and whatever choice you make will be the right one for all of you. I am sure your future holds lots more sunshine and happy faces! I hope you get a break from work too.x
Sounds like you are going to be busy, it is nice to have time with the children if you can. Will you be moving far away? Your WIP looks good, hope you enjoyed Newcastle.

Best of luck with the move and change of lifestyle. I hope everything works out for you the way you want it to.

I am very pleased for you Lisa. It was obvious that this is what you were hoping for. We decided that it was more important to be with the kids than to save for a while. As it turns out it has also made for a happier marriage because I am also happier! Good luck!
I hope you thoroughly enjoy the time with your little ones. I always fought to stay home with mine, and we have never regretted it. And more time to sew!

best of luck with all the changes in your life!
the quilt is too cute...
Big changes on the horizon for you it seems - time with your children when they are small is precious, so it's great you'll be getting more of it. Looks like you know exactly how to make good use of it too.
Good luck with your move - sometimes making the decision is the hardest part!Time home with the kids bofore they start school is precious - enjoy.
Hey Lisa it's me again ... I have finally gotten to your tag & your question :)
Good luck with all the changes - pretty big decisions. I've never regretted being at home with my little ones, I'm sure you won't either.
Good luck with all that is new - big decisions can be so exciting!
