Piper xxx

Good morning lovely bloggers, hope you don't mind but had to share a few wee pictures of my new wee cousin Piper!
She was born nearly a month ago very poorly and had to have an operation as her wee insides were all born outside! Shes doing better but due to have another operation on the 10th of this month, so fingers and toes all crossed!
If all goes well the earliest she can leave the hospital is May!Seems like ages and feel bad for my Auntie not getting to enjoy the first months with the baby!
Its harder too as my aunt and her partner Steve live in New Zealand with his family and we're all the way in Scotland!! Even harder as my granny wishes she was there but is terrified of flying!!


My Auntie Diane and Piper





Thanks for looking and letting me share our new wee addition, isn't she sweet hee! Its weird cause usually I think all babies are.............ugly dare I say it!!! But she is just so cute with those dark eyes!!

PS Member check out my candy! It ends Thursday at 4pm and winner will be announced after 6pm, good luck everyone!!
