Mommy Monday - Sunday Funday!

Hey Hey Ladies and Gents.

 

I'm back with a short but in my opinion (because it contains pictures of my sons) sweet Mommy Monday post.

After the last few weeks, i could have crawled under my duvet and not come back out, but i decided the best way to get things back on track was to pick myself up and stop feeling sorry for myself!

It actually turned into a really lovely day, we took a drive a little further down the coast to a place called West Bay. I have great memories of walks along the harbour followed by fish, chips and ice cream with my grandparents when I was much younger.

To say it was cold was an understatement, it was ruddy freezing! That didn't stop the boys enjoying an ice cream though! I really enjoyed being out and seeing them laughing and being silly.

We ended our day with very impromptu drinks and laughs with our friends, our sons met at school and love spending time together and luckily we live just around the corner from each other. It was definitely a night Steve and I needed, I felt able to talk about what had happened and how I felt without feeling like I shouldn't be, I feel very grateful to have such great friends who allow me to vent :0) It felt great to laugh and 'forget' for a few hours, it really was a lovely night, although Steve is suffering today after one to many falling down waters!

 

What did you get up to this weekend? Time spent with family and friends? Duvet days? Whatever it was I hope you had a blast and have a wonderful week!

Posts will likely be fewer than usual at the moment whilst I'm still not quite 'me', definitely look out for a special post next week though as I share how we will celebrate my mums 1 year post stroke survival anniversary! I believe we have a day in Brighton planned with the family, all 10 of us!

 

For now though take care,

 

Much Love,

xoxo

 

 



Mummy Monday! A Little Look At My Family!

Hey Hey!

 

Welcome back to my blog.

I hope you have all had a wonderful weekend and a great start to the new week.
 

It's half term here for us, so I thought i would do a little post about my boys! I thought it might be fun to share a little bit about my family with you lovely people.

 

Steve and I have been together for very nearly 13 years, and married for almost 10. By the time we celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary we were almost 6 months pregnant with our first little munchkin! Evan came into the world in 2006 and changed us forever!

 

 

 

He's a handsome chap isn't he! 

He is so incredibly kind and thoughtful, and totally laid back, just like his daddy! He's unbelievably intelligent too, the boy can do maths that baffles me! His love's in life are his scooter, video games, his best friends...AKA 'The Crazy Bulldog Gang' and anything non vegetable!

When Evan was one we got a little surprise, we discovered we were expecting again! Totally not planned so soon but we were in love instantly.

In 2008 our little firecracker came screaming into the world. Meet Harry!

 

As you can see from the little selection of pictures, Harry is completely individual! He has a fiery personality and keeps us on our toes, he also keeps us laughing too, he's a tiny little comic!

His loves in life are video games, dressing up and pizza......oh, and chocolate cake! 

 

My boys, are quite frankly, my world, so will no doubt feature highly as this blog grows, I hope you'll enjoy the little snippets of them as they grow.

I've never really known what I wanted from life, but as soon as I became a mummy I knew, it's probably the most rewarding job in the world, although they drive me batcrap crazy at times I wouldn't be without them!

 

 

So that's it for today, I hope you enjoyed this little snippet!

I'll be back later in the week so watch out for more ramblings, don't forget you can also follow me on my other social network outlets!

 

Have a great evening!

Much Love,

Couples Cuteness! Valentines Day!

Hey Hey!

 

 

My husband and I have been together for well over a decade now, we aren't huge on Valentines Day, I like to think if you love someone, it should be demonstrated all year round, not just once a year......That said, Sainsburys had some super cute Valentines couple items that I couldn't resist, i'd probably have picked them up if it wasn't the season of LOVE to be honest!

 

 

First up, this gorgeous couples movie night set!

How cute is this?!

Steve and I have two sons, aged 6 and 8, so as you can imagine our 'Date Nights', often consist of a takeaway, a movie and some popcorn! This set in my opinion is perfect!

All items are really solid and well made, and will no doubt last for years, you can get a lot of popcorn in the box too, so its perfect for  sharing!

 

 

A few days later I grabbed these, I love them!

Steve and I have been a couple for 13 years and will celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary this summer, yet we don't have, or have never had any 'his n hers' items. We love our coffee, its how we function, so we can be a sickeningly cute couple whilst getting our caffeine fix! Although Steve complains they aren't big enough, they are small mugs and he likes a bucket of the good stuff!

 

Lastly, if you thought the above was sickeningly sweet, look away now!

Our sons are still very young, but they do have their crushes!

And whilst we don't force it, I will support them and provide funds for them to buy little token gifts, and here they are! They gave them to their sweethearts yesterday on the last day school and were gifted sweet items back, so so sweet! 

 

 

So that's it!

Just a little peek at the love shared in our home this Valentines!

Whatever your opinions, weather you embrace the day or not, have a wonderful weekend!

 

 

Ill be back on Monday with my first 'Mummy Monday' Post! I'm excited to share more of my little munchkins with you.
