Pregnant with baby number 2

So this may not be news to some of you who either read my old blog or watch my YouTube channel, but I am indeed pregnant with baby number 2. My little girl is going to be a big sister and I cannot be more excited for her.

As I write this post I am exactly 17 weeks pregnant, which seems impossible as it is flying by right now.

Me and Liam found out we were expecting on the 3rd of August 2019 when I was exactly 4 weeks gone. The tests were cheap ones and the lines were very faint so I ended up buying another brand of test which was a lot clearer.

I am so excited to become a Mum of two but I am so nervous to, both me and Liam are only children in a sense of it. Liam has no siblings at all but I have a half sister and half brother, they are both quite a lot older than me and I didn't grow up with them, they lived in Lincolnshire.

I was going to do weekly updates but feel as if I am repeating from my vlog so am going to keep the pregnancy updates to a minimum on here. But I would love it if you could join our journey of becoming a family of four.

Autumn Tag

Hello, I thought that today I would take part in the Autumn tag so you can all get to know me a little better, I took part in this on my old blog many years back and a lot has changed since. Autumn has to be my favourite season with so much change and the excitement for Christmas not far ahead. 1. What signifies the start of Autumn for you? I know Autumn starts at the end of September but for me its the first of November when it starts to officially feel like Autumn, it all of the sudden feels different and colder after Halloween and especially when the clocks go back too. 2. What is your favourite Autumn scent? My favourite autumn scents are either Orange or berries, they always make the house smell so warm and toasty in wax melt form and I love them in a hand cream or even a bubble bath scent too around this time of year.. 3. What is your favourite Autumn colour? My favourite Autumn colour has to be the burnt orange for the leaves but burgundy colour for clothing, the are just very w...

Macaroni Cheese | Recipe and Method

I do love a pasta dish and macaroni cheese is such a comfort food for me, its so easy and simple to make, perfect for a busy evening taking only 15-20 minutes to make.

Cottage pie recipe

I have recently started making my own Cottage pie with a recipe that I have tweeted to work four our fussy family. I find that a cottage pie is such an Autumn/Winter staple as it feeling like such a warm, hearty meal, one that is a proper comfort meal. I recently started making the meal and found that I didn't have a packet mix in so decided to find a recipe to try out, the first one I found sounded good but I changed it slightly to fit our family, Lils isn't keen on fresh onion ad none of us like celery. I thought I would share our recipe with you which can easily be adapted if need be. Recipe 500g Beef Mince 1 carton of tomato passata 1 tbs tomato paste 1 beef stock cube 1 beef stock pot 1 tsp onion salt 1 tsp garlic granules 1 tsp mixed herbs 2 medium carrots sliced and part cooked Salt and pepper 3 large potatoes for mash 75g cheese Method 1. Preheat you oven to gas mark 4/180oC 2. Brown off the mince and drain off excess oil from the pan. 3. Pour in the pass...
