Christmas shopping in Brixton

22 December 2012


So I dug myself out of the mountain of stinky nappies and sour milk flavoured cloths...and had a nice cuppa tea and slice o'cake down at Brixton Village. Pehr is starting to develop her own language and its very entertaining. She keeps saying Errol which I think could be Hello?
She smiles and laughs all the time. This is how she repays us for cleaning her bum and feeding her non stop. Anyways, we had a lovely afternoon wandering about the shops, very Christmassy indeedo...

I got to visit my favourite vintage shop. I bought Pehr some tiny black dungarees and a 1920s top/dress thingy {but I still have to lose some preggo fat before it will fit me properly, not fair!}.


and a very first enamel camping mug, from this deli...


she loved looking at all the lights, before she conked out for the rest of the day.


tiny espresso cup camping mug for our little one from Cornercopia


1930s baby dungarees from Leftovers


bubs admiring all the candles and lights, yay!

We are going to the Isle of Wight for a few days in our Campervan. My mum's cooking is amazing, and Pehr will get to meet her baby cousin too. I think I maybe indulging in some alcoholic relief...I think I deserve it ; )
Merry Christmas Peoples! X

    Merry Christmas to you all!
    I do love your blog and have been reading it for the past 20 months or so. I got really excited when you let us know that you were pregnant!
    I also remember you saying that you wouldnt write about boring baby stuff, but now you seem to narrate about what Pehr is doing, saying, seeing in all your posts... She is lovely, really, but it get a bit boring.

    1. Apologies Anonymous! I guess she does tend to tag along with us!
      She didnt get a mention in my last 3 posts though...so maybe you can just read the ones where she doesnt feature?

      Many thanks for reading my blog up to now though x

    I love reading your blog and I also love hearing about and seeing photos of Pehr, she is quite gorgeous. Please continue as you are as of course she tags along with you - she is part of the family and reading about her is far from boring. Hope you both have a wonderful first Christmas with your little girl. x

    I love all the posts about Pehr, she doesn't stop getting cuter and cuter... I love how she seems to be fitting in nicely with your lifestyle, how she is comforted by all the sounds of the rumbly car, the noisy flea and the pub-- she clearly had gotten accustomed to them while she was still inside your bump! I love that you already got her a camping cup, I cannot wait to read about her adventures on your camping trips this summer! And the vintage dungarees are adorable. My best wishes for a wonderful Christmas with your entire family and an awesomely fun 2013!

    A lovely post, with gorgeous photos as usual, Artemis. Looks like that part of London has some great shops to mooch round.
    Have a beautiful Christmas with your family and lovely daughter Pehr... and don't shy away from posting about her, she's a huge part of your life now and she is a delightful addition to your junkaholique tales... it's anything but boring! Carolyn x
