So, the washing piles have built up again in our bedroom, I have Amazon packages I still haven't opened, there are a gazillion toys lying around my house... And, yet, I'm sat reading more kids' books 😂 (Not on my own, I hasten to add!) 📓
These are some of our favourites from the library - Mog had to be renewed again, and she's worked her way through the others in equal measure. ❤️
I don't care if everywhere is a mess, you definitely don't get these moments back! (And, especially since it's the only way I can get the wriggly worm to sit on my knee anymore 😂)
So it's Monday! 💚 Which means after takeaways, chocolate and all the treats, it's back to this stuff 😋
Getting extra veg in my smoothies lately to try to get up to 5 veg & 2 fruit a day! It ain't easy sometimes but good for the #endo monster. 🥑
Also, my Invisalign #adultbraces came off today, yay! I know loads of people say they lose weight having them because you have to keep them in 22 hours a day and remove them only for eating so you tend to eat less - I don't think I did, though! 😂
I always look weeeell sick when I lose weight though, so I'm hoping now these bad boys are off I can fill out my face again!!! 😝
Anyone else on the health train again for Monday (then slipping off it by Weds afternoon...?! Okay, just me, then?) 🤣✋🏻
Sorry I have been unwittingly rubbish on here again!! Life has just taken over the last week or so! There's always something to do, isn't there?
⏱️ As I write this, I have just put my laptop down after finishing some work off for a client at 12.45am on a Saturday night - I'm a fun type of gal!! 😂 💻
But, I'm not saying that for a moan, as this is actually my favourite time to work - when I can think most clearly. I've always been like this, I'm definitely a bit of a night owl! 🦉
But anyway, I digress... The point of this post is to say that one of the reasons I haven't jumped on to post something just to keep my followers up or my content fresh, is that I realised the importance for my own well-being of just using those in-between moments to recharge my mind. 💙
So, as cheesy as the saying goes, I hope you're all 'unplugging' your minds this weekend 😁 🚶
Go for a walk, watch your fave trashy show, have a cuppa WITH the cake... just let yourself BE 🙌🏻😌 Happy Sunday all!!!
So, I never got chance to update you but this time, last week, we went to @campandfurnace to watch @teachrex - and it was amazing!!! 😄🙌🏻
💚
Definitely one of our best family days out this year! It was educational, unique, fun and inventive all at the same time! 💚
Sorry that the pics are low quality but I took them on my phone and it was dark - plus I wanted to blur out any kids faces in the background. But, the first pic is my little mate getting stuck in 'stroking' Jam the dinosaur 😂 she was so brave! Then, there's her Teach Rex t-shirt which she was mega proud to wear to the @worldmuseum_ the next day to see the dinosaurs! 💚
I can't sing the praises of this event highly enough - if you get the chance to go, grab your tickets fast as they sell out quickly!! 💚
I've never heard my girl talk about anything as much for as long as she did after this - she told everyone we saw 'jam and hairy jam' (the dinosaurs names 🤣). It's a great idea and so well organised, the dinos are so life like!! 🙌🏻
Soooo excited to get my @invisalign braces (hopefully) removed next week!!! I'm so glad I did it though - I'll be blogging all about the adjustment to wearing braces 22 hours a day, cleaning them, removing them for eating, hygiene, discomfort and pain, IPR (teeth "shaving"), the reality of braces being a busy mum to a toddler and more! Feel free to add in the comments if you have anything in particular you'd like me to tell you more about 😁 My teeth aren't perfect and still have parts my dentist would like to correct - and I've seen some Instagram accounts on here with people getting teeth that are like mine AFTER I've had Invisalign but where they're starting their treatment! 🤣) But I'm so much happier with them now than before, I definitely don't need them to perfect (the rest of me isn't so it'd look a bit weird!! 🤣) AND plus it'd cost me more to get more braces!! So, I'm happy with them being just a better version of me! Plus I think imperfections add a little pizzazz to a person 😄✨🌟💫
