October🎃

Ah I love the 1st October because the next three months are the best of the year! The autumn colours, colder weather, chunky jumpers, big soft blankets, fluffy socks and cute film days! As well as Halloween, Bonfire Night and Christmas🥰

I haven’t got much planned for October and November but December is jam packed – or it will be when I book everything🙄

I’m so excited to do different activities with R and as a family because J doesn’t have much time left in the army so we can do proper family things together too which I seriously can’t wait for.

Also December brings Blogmas! I’m going to use this month for planning because December seems to be the only month I can manage to properly blog without failing to keep up with it🙈

Happy October everyone💙

Hello September🍂

September means it’s nearly Autumn, my favourite season😍

Quick update on the summer goals:

I managed to smash most of them except try a new recipe and the time capsule wardrobe! J’s Birthday was kinda ruined because he got put on guard so we had a surprise big family (my side) meal instead then a few drinks which was a good night. R’s birthday went amazing, I still can’t believe I have a 1 year old, the time flies by so much! We’ve had an amazing summer and it’s just sad that it’s over so quickly and J is on guard yet again.. I’ve even managed to go past my first milestone and only half a stone off my actual goal weight🙌🏻 I don’t know how because J is a feeder and we’ve eaten out so many times😩 the new recipe just got lost, I completely forgot about it and the capsule wardrobe just went down the drain but I do need some new clothes seriously – but that’ll probably have to wait until next month.

CHRISTMAS!

I am so excited for Christmas, I’ve made a huge start, written lists, budgeted for monthly spends at certain shops and already halfway through buying😂 Christmas when it’s not just yourself and on limited money is hard but I got this💁🏻‍♀️ the struggle is finding gifts that are special to each person that they don’t already have especially when your family is so awkward! We also have the issue with J’s family at the other side of the country and our families not getting on so we have to split ourselves fairly which is stressful in itself..

But before Christmas, there is Halloween and Bonfire Night. R was way too young to understand last year and I LOVE Halloween, I can’t pick which is my favourite between Christmas and Halloween.. I feel like R is still a little bit young for trick or treating but I’m sure we’ll figure something out. For bonfire night, there’s always a huge display a 15 minute walk from where I live so I’m hoping to take the little monster to that!

I know, I’m awful at keeping up with blogging but I will try🙄

It’s October! With an update on my life

October is my favourite month of the year!

• It’s officially autumn which is my favourite season, I love the colours and the fashion.
• You get to put the heating on and finally have an excuse to lay with loads of blankets and snacks watching endless amounts of films.
• There’s a huge fair that comes to near where I live every single year which I love the environment and smells.
• It’s Halloween! My favourite holiday other than Christmas. I always find a way to dress up even though I’m 22 now. I can’t wait until I can dress R (my son) up and take him trick or treating! He’s a bit too young this year so I’ll just be making some Halloween crafts with him if he’s going to be nice enough😂
• Christmas shopping! Ok so I do mine throughout the year just to save money but October is the month where the Christmas things start to come into supermarkets and it’s not long until Christmas now.

I’m going to be so busy this month, hopefully I’ll have chance to post because last month blogging just completely went out of the window trying to get to grips with a newborn baby and getting him into a routine. But this month I have R’s christening, we’re going to try and get into sensory room and baby groups more, I’m planning on going to Belgium on the ferries for R’s first ever holiday and then Halloween!

Watch this space..

I’m also planning for Blogmas, so if anyone has any ideas, please throw them my way!
