Baby Dawe!

I'm delighted to say that Megan Elizabeth Dawe was born at 3.09pm on the 28th August, weighing 8lb 6oz. She's absolutely beautiful, we're completely besotted. Megan is doing very well, she's very healthy and demanding! Us first-time parents are in a state of shock, any tips from experienced parents are greatly appreciated! And apologies for being VERY behind with emails and messages, I think I'll be playing catch-up for the next 18 years! xxxx Tags:
Baby!

I'm delighted to say I'm 30 weeks pregnant with our first baby! My husband and I are so excited! It's due in August. We don't know if it's a boy or a girl, their legs were firmly crossed on the last scan, and that was our last opportunity to find out until the big day. It has made baby shopping tricky! I'll try and limit the number of cute baby photos I post once the baby arrives! xxxxx

Hey Funny Girl :P skippin' by to pay homage for your delicious column in our EF Faezine, I am totally loving the new sketch that I just added to the Spring issue *giggles* with a brilliant title! I greatly appreciate your wonderful uplifting humour that sustained me through the long hours it took to launch our new venture, a delight indeed. I have had such fun working on this special project, especially as it contained unexpected joys too and continues to do so... Thank you dear Alex friend for your much appreciated friendship and inspiration ~ my love to you all. (Drew's looking forward to his cake ;o) Be |

Hello Alexandra, thank you for being part of the EF community and sharing your beautiful work. I really love your amazing Sea Siren, I can almost hear those waves crashing about her and know she'll be invigorated by them - you can tell I feel rather land-locked here too! I hope we can meet up again soon, kettle's always on here if you're ever in the Cotswolds... |

Your artwork is very sensitive (in a good way, of course) and your style is well suited to the ethereal. I especially love the SpiderWoman piece, and I really appreciate the ambiguity of it - I cannot tell if the maiden is kindred to the spiders or if she has fallen victim to a poison-induced slumber. I hope you do not mind if I "friend" you. Desiree Isphording |
Oh my gosh, she's just so gorgeous! Very big bewitching eyes she has as well :)
Enchanted OaksMany magical blessings to you!
