This evening

Well we may not be travelling the world
We may not be seeing beautiful new places and exploring.
But we do live here
And that is pretty special
(And yes my hair still a disaster. No idea why I am refusing to make the appointment. And yes, those are my pajama bottoms. And coffee. I'm tired today and so got in to comfies and caffeinated up)

A little bit

of our Sunday.
How English - we went to Homebase! Meadow loved trying out all the sheds and opening the cupboard doors on all the kitchens.
Loving my ancient McQueen scarf (I have 3 but favour this one)
What happens to your car when you have a child...not just raybans and lipstick. Now sippy cups and Mr Men books....
Also work outfit with my favoured shirt with studs and lace skirt which everyone asks me where it is from. Zara!
What have you all been up to? Something more exciting than us I hope :)

Happy Saturday

This time last year, our Saturday looked like this...
How tiny is my baby?
Some of my favourite pictures. How gorgeous is my husband? I think every day how yummy he is :) Even my Dad commented on his good looks! Along the lines of "he's a handsome bugger"

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend!

5 minutes with a 22 month old

Looks a bit like this :)
She is such a character it is ridiculous.
Being a mama is exhausting, and testing and at times I resent my loss of freedom to do what i want when I want, especially at night! I miss the CINEMA!
But I love this girl with all my heart and she makes us laugh every day with her antics. New words every day. Today 'peanut butter' said in the sweetest little voice. Kills me.

Summer days

Summer is here! And it is so welcome. I'm getting to wear cream at last :) Not killing it in this photo but to be fair, getting Rich to take a photo means you have a one second opportunity before he says he is too busy(which he is) so zero time to do more than one take!Also reminds me that I want to change up The OBH sign. That one is too twee!
Meadow in her pretty print dress
My new jacket as predicted Topshop
Navy on navy
Starbucks and my favourite Designers Guild yellow leather purse
New mini dustpan and brush set from MUJI handy for Meadow incidents like crushing oatcakes in to my cowhide rug....
New ELLE decoration to read
My current obsession with Naked I love them and luckily Rich and Meadow don't :)
Our lovely stable door is great for letting in the sunshine but not letting Meadow out!

Atlantic Pacific

Damn Blair and her fabulousness. I forced myself to put down the Topshop version of this jacket, then saw this! Back to Topshop. Must have. Not many exciting photos today...sooooo hot and just trying to keep Meadow cool! We were discussing our lack of Meadow and Daddy pics, as Rich always doing the taking. Meadow decided to be uncooperative...as you can see :)
NB Yes my hair is a disaster. That's what having children does to a person. Where to fit in 3 hours for a haircut?

Work outfit and what I bought...

My favourite lunch
The best collar necklace (Topshop) and the best Thank You card ever
Bargain white skirt with black stripe from Mango (£20!).
Black wedges (that give me blisters)
Zara studded collar blouse.
Orchids and stripes
Evening light in The Old Bake House
Pink striped bowl from Toast (I LOVE that store)
Tiny milk jug from Muji.

Happy
