Weekly Roundup #08

I have found myself repeating lots between my two series- My Weekly List and Our week Captured so I have decided to combine the two.

1- Baby L wanting cuddles with her poorly sister // 2- Baby walking round the furniture up Gma’s // 3- At the doctors // 4- Sneaky gingerbread bat // 5- feeling better // 6- On the roundabout

Real life:

Sunday we went to Mr F’s Grandmas’s to celebrate his brother’s birthday. August- October is a busy time birthday-wise so we seem to be there every other weekend singing ‘Happy Birthday’! We had a lovely roast dinner and G enjoyed playing with her aunties and uncles.

I was glad for Monday to arrive after the rubbish week I had the week before. I had to go and pick my mum up from the station – we had been expecting her around lunchtime so it was quite a shock when she rang at 10! Both the girls were still in their pyjamas!! I scooped them up and shoved them in the car anyway!

I had to take both the girls to the doctors on Tuesday (no no, not due to the pyjamas shenanigans!!) They have both had coughs for ages and it has gone onto their chests. Got some antibiotics so hopefully they will both be better in a few days. We also bought G some lovely snow boots for the winter and posted yet more parcels after sales on eBay.

I have not had to get up and out of the house early in 3 years! Wednesday was another day at work (last week was just an afternoon) and it came as quite a shock to leave the house at such an ungodly hour! I survived the day though and had lovely cuddles with the girls when I got home.

Thursday we spent the morning snuggled on the sofa watching The Lion King for the 10th time in as many days! After being cooped up with the awful weather we took the opportunity to go the the park in the afternoon. We did have to stand under a tree for a bit though as the sun turned to rain very quickly!

Real life weekly goal: I am not feeling very organised at the moment, I have stopped making a daily plan which has led to many hours sitting on the sofa doing not very much! Must try and stop being lazy!

Blog and Social Life:

• I am feeling so much more positive about being a blogger. I have been overwhelmed by the love for our new Happy Days Linky! Thank you to everyone who linked in and hope to see you all again tomorrow!
• My most popular post this week besides the #HappyDaysLinky has been my poem about being a ‘young’ mum. I have a feeling it was my top post last week too so obviously many of you feel the same- that other mums judge you by your looks and not what you are truly like as a person. Their loss.
• I have let my Facebook page slip a lot, there is so much to do as a blogger! I cannot keep up! After reading Hannah’s post about having a blog Facebook page I am now full of enthusiasm again!! If you want to leave links to your page in the comments I would love to follow you. This is my page if you would be so kind to like it, pretty please!

Blog and social life weekly goal: Make myself a timetable for different blog related duties. What with my actual blog, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram my mind is totally boggled!! I don’t even know where to begin with Google + so if anyone has any clues on that let me know!!
