Life Update:

So here we are, now in August and I'm finally back with a new post  ** hangs head in shame**
I know I say it often but I want to make a good effort with my blog as I have had it for around 6 years.

So where were we? I left you back in February.. So the month of March was full of birthdays!! -Too many to be spread over 4 weeks along with mothers day!

April- We went on our first holiday of the year to a Haven site which although the weather wasn't amazing the memories were. This was also the month my little one got accepted into Primary school! - Yes I am that over emotional mother. - I will definitely be following the process of this. - For my benefits too. And lastly I passed my course to be a complete nail technician.

May- This was more of a chilled month not a lot happened.

June- More birthdays including myself turning 25 (How am I halfway to 50?!) and our second get away -again another Haven holiday but this time we ventured to Devon - Amazing memories made again and this time perfect weather too!

July- was full of dentist and hospital appointments for me so not great lol but it was the month we announced to our friends extended family and the rest of the world on facebook that we are expecting baby no 2!

August- So here we are at the start of August. Lots of exciting things planned - We have our Gender scan so I'll be posting the outcome, our nursery plans, and getting our first baby ready for school!

Let me know if you have any homeware decor ideas for the upcoming nursery!

10 Happy things!

As I look out the window which is hammering down with rain, It got me thinking what simple things make me happy:

   1. My dressing gown - Sounds redic to some of you (Not one of my closest friends, she is the exact same - Yes Adele that's you!) but it's the best thing - besides Ian hating it and replacing it whenever he can it's always there for you. Cold whilst you wait for the heating to come on? -Dressing gown. Feeling emotional?-Dressing gown. Need a cuddle and no ones home?- Dressing gown. Ya see where I'm going with this?

2. Candles- They smells amazing, they make the room cosy, they chill you out. I just bloody love 

em'. 

   3. Fresh sheets - Pretty self explanatory, the best feeling when you're tired!

4. The heating being on AT LEAST  24 degrees - Grates my Sh*t when Ian touches the thermostat!!! A downside to being polar opposites!

5. Eggs - In the form of Mini and creme. Petition to start selling them all year round please?

6. Driving alone in my car with my 90's tunes playing on full volume! -Apologies for anyone who hears/sees this in full swing!

7.  An empty washing basket - With children this can be unheard of but keep ploughing the end of the basket really does exist!

8. Fluffy socks - Like no.1 they've got your back. I swear my feet have no blood in them! They are like blocks of ice 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 363 a year! - minus the 2 days it is actually 'hot' in England.

9. IKEA - Yes it's like joining the M25 and once your in, you've got to be brave to go back against traffic if you forget something from the lounge section. But there's just something about that place that I LOVE - And as much as its a controversial subject it's not the for meatballs.

10. Hanging my washing on the line outside - Back to another adulting one but who else is sick of either shoving it in the dryer or having it all over the house on a clothes horse trying to get it dry for the next school week?!  - I love the fresh smell when it's been blowing in the wind in spring drying naturally.

So there you have it, My 10 basic things that make me happy most if not all are very boring adulting ones but hey I'm 24 going on 80 so that's acceptable right?
