** Suckmylolly.com: Free Blogger Templates and Designs **

Pink Calm - free XML blogger design
Tuesday, 2 September 2008

SOME NEWS: Apologies for not being around lately. I am moving home at the end of next week and this means that I will be without internet for about a week or two (arrr!).

And....

2 buns + 1 oven = ?

Yes, ok, I have another admission to make! I am having twins! I'm halfway through (and it's extremely scary to think I will have two babies by January 2009) but it's also thrilling! I found out yesterday that they are twin boys (not identical). So this basically means that I'll be making blogger templates for a while to come as I juggle two babies.

Anyway, enough about me. Here's another template:

Looking forward to your new templates - I'm about due for a new one! Especially since I'm about to pop out a little boy of my own (just one though)!

Best wishes!

I'll stop looking for one now that I know you're going to be a parent.

I don't do custom work on suckmylolly.com and I'm not about to plaster kids over all of my new blogger templates. Infact.... you could say that all my previous blogger templates are child free as they are all sans children!

Thanks to everyone else for your kind comments!!

I totally didn't mean any disrespect. Sorry you took it that way.

I was trying to tell you that I'll stop looking for Childfree (which I'll explain to you in a moment) specific layouts. Because I think your layouts are groovy and certainly not ordinary, I thought you might be willing to move a bit more out of the comfort box and do something a bit more edgy, i.e. Childfree layouts.

If memory serves, I did contact you via Acorn about such a template as well, but never received a reply.

No worries, it's all good.

As for what Childfree means, we obviously have different definitions. I'm referring to the growing movement of people who are Childfree By Choice and not simply layouts that don't feature kids. Here's a Wiki that may help explain my definition of Childfree:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childfree

Again, didn't mean for my comment to come off as rude. I just meant I'll stop hoping for something like a CF layout from you, especially since you'll undoubtedly be SUPER busy in the months ahead.

It's all good.

Best of luck!
At 04 September 2008 19:56, sharnee said...: Ahhh -- sincere apologies, Ms Anon! I guess I have always turned a blind eye to extreme baby bloggers and in turn didn't realise that there was even such a thing as "child free"! All this stuff has been going on without me!

I really am sorry I took it the wrong way. All is forgiven. If I ever have time to do you a childfree theme I'll let you know!

At 06 September 2008 00:26, Girl Clumsy said...: Hey Sharnee!

Many congratulations to you and your partner, and best wishes for the rest of your pregnancy.

And well done for avoiding extreme baby bloggers - some of those people really freak me out! ;)

Cheers, Natalie.

At 14 September 2008 10:07, Jennifer said...: Congrats on the twins! I'm a twin mommy myself. My (identical) boys are 13 months. You are in for the time of your life. A word of advice~ buy the book "Mothering Multiples" by Karen Gromada. Start reading it now. Best book there is in my opinion. The knowledge you will gain from this book will give you a great head start on what's to come. Congrats again!

At 30 September 2008 15:34, Chunks of Reality said...: Congratulations on your twins! You are so lucky! Do you know what the genders are? I'm so excited for you and hope that you keep us in the loop! :)

Also, I created a new blog at http://chunksofreality.blogspot.com. I don't know if you'll remember me when you see it. Let me know if you do. I'm the one that went nuts about your designs and told everyone.

I just uploaded a new design to my blog and it looked great the other day. For some reason today it is not displaying things I have on the sidebar, but is displaying the sidebar at the bottom of the page.

Do you know what that could be?

Thank you in advance!
