Hello people!
Well I had started writing a different blog for today but its gotten out of hand and needs more time now so will be tomorrow or Thursdays entry instead! I'm sorry.
So instead I thought it would be better to just update you on what I've been up to and maybe it'll give you some incite on why I haven't been tweeting as much or actually getting my blogs done in time.
Lately (since getting into my blogging again) I've been starting to feel more and more like me again. I mean I'm a mum first and foremost and nothing will ever be as important as that, ever. He's my world and my day begins and ends with his smile and smack in the face (love you too Jack).
But I have been feeling more me. Before I had Jack I'd play games, read books, do my hair, make up, meet with friends. When having a baby of course your priority changes. I'd rather play with him and make sure he's happy then do anything for myself! But he's coming up to a year now and he's starting to want to play with things and explore more. Hes also better at just chilling and I don't have to distract him just so I can run to the toilet!
On one hand its nice he's feeling more confident and becoming his own person, then on the other hand its like, my baaaby doesn't want me any more! *wallows in self pity*. Which is silly of course he does. He can't make lunch or change his nappy! Its good he feel comfortable now to play with his toys without mummy interfering.
Anyway so now since Mr Independent doesn't want me as much, I've had a bit more time to sort myself out. I can now do my hair and make up. I can read my books, play games and lots more. Especially with daddy around, I can have a bath and shave my legs! Wooo!
So I've been experimenting with make up a bit. Its been years since I have. My hair doesn't look or feel dead anymore.
Also I've been out and about a bit more. We had a family photo shoot last Saturday which was interesting. Went to see my lovely family in Totland which was nice. They live in a quieter town so it was nice to chill without hearing some one shouting at some one else. I took their dog for a walk as well which was great. She a lovely beast, kind of a challenge but she loves me (weirdo).
I've also been sorting out the flat, sorting through clothing and cupboards, generally having a pre spring clean and its felt good. I love being able to look through my wardrobe and find the t-shirt I was looking for instead of the t-shirts I haven't worn in years! Its such a refreshing feel to watch you discarded crap be taking to charity or carted off by the bin men! Nice clean flat!
Cooking from scratch as well! Making quiche, Sheppard's pie and soups. Its so rewarding to do and tastes amazing. Puff up all proud like a big mama bird! Yeah I made that Sheppard's pie... Tastes awesome!
So yeah, I've been a busy bunny and its all thanks to this blog and my husband and baby boy. They've truly brought me back to life and it feels awesome. I feel like a damn lady! I feel like myself and hopefully in the weeks to come it will carry on and only get better! Will be doing some make up blogs soon as well once I've perfected and found some looks I like and want to share, as well as recipes and much more.
Keep an eye out loves :)
Take it easy.
