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!

Do you want to go to the seaside?

Do you want to go to the seaside?I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go - especially not in November!Hands up who got The Kooks reference?

Call me mad but there's something nice about going to the seaside - Even in the cold. So we huddled into the car and drove about an hours drive to be beside the sea. When we got there we went to get food and when you have sea and sand a stones throw away, it has to be fish and chips right? 

btw - We were having a debate, is gravy acceptable on chips? because I vote yes. Let me know in the comments your vote!

The one we went to, is one that we have been to before. It's called Trawlers Catch and it is brilliant. Inside it is full of Pirate items and all things under the sea -I need to stop these puns! hanging on walls and ceilings. The first time we went there they actually had Pirates of the Caribbean playing on a large Tv on the wall! - You don't get that at the local, not in our sleepy little town anyway! It even had phone chargers at every table! Very 2017. 

Once we'd munched down on dinner we then took little one to the arcades. We had lots of pennies that we had forgotten about so we took them with us, it was so much fun and we managed to bag lots of prizes!

2p machines are very underrated. Even at 24 and a mum, I think I probably enjoyed it most. The goodies we got were, a blue helicopter -(yes the colour is important when you're three), a red pick up truck, a red racing car, two fridge magnets, an avengers puzzle and a box of celebrations! Now can you see why I was excited? 

We all had ice cream, 2 blues ones and a brown one- Again through a three year old's eyes. I opted for a Mr Whippy with bubblegum sherbet and Ian voted mine the best!! - For those of you that know Ian know He hates admitting my choice is better haha. 

Even though it was cold and those that know me, know I should have been born in a HOT country as I can never warm up!! It was such a lovely family day! 

Wheres your favourite place near the sea?
