Being ill with a little one.

Not only am I unwell but MM is too... its so hard having to juggle being ill and having a little one. You have to just get on with it, no time for moaning and self pity (and trust me I want to)

Does anyone else desperately want their mummy when they're ill? 26 and I still do.

Waaaah. Everyone feel sorry for me as I won't have time to today 😷

Sick bugs and pops.

Float like a butterfly sting like a bee.

On our week of London pops and I went for a walk around London to see some sites. She was asleep at all of them so it's something we're going to have to do again. We did manage to have a nice little 'picnic' in St James' park. All fun and games until a bee landed on pops leg. I noticed it and was just about to sweep it away and it stung her. I actually saw it sting her... Bloody bee. She made a small little cry when the stinger went in and then was fine. I took the stinger out and made a mad dash for a chemist... She was just sitting in the pram like nothing happened which made me panic more.

Long story short we got to a chemist got her some Piriton and she's completely fine.



Have you or little one been stung by a bee? How did you react? I've not been stung but assume I would be a proper drama queen...

Even more reason to sort my changing bag first aid kit (wish I had done it sooner)

Week away and saying goodbye. (Pretend it's Friday 14th)

MM and I spent today saying goodbye to his uncle john. We didn't take pops as we decided she's too young to understand what's going on just yet.

What's your view on things like that?

It was an amazing service and utterly heartbreaking to see everyone so sad. The priest was great and like he said 'morn that you will miss the person and you're parting but not that they are gone' I'm paraphrasing but it's a lovely message all the same.


Pops and I will be spending the week with dede in london without daddy (wah)
When we visit London usually were spread so thin I never get the time to see everyone I want to so this time will be different. We're going to have a very busy week seeing people and places.

Mum envy

Do you ever look at other mums and think...
'Seriously, how do you get the time to look that amazing?'
I'm lucky if I get time for a shower in the morning, granted I would sleep Instead of putting makeup on etc but some mums look like they get both... BOTH!

Can you even remember what that feels like? I can't.

I remember seeing on TV a while back if you put blushe on you look more fresh faced? I've got the blusher, I'll see how it goes.

Any tips or tricks you've learnt that you want to share??

Until the next post,
Are.
