A pocket of my life

Hello March, where did February go?  I feel like February an odd month, I always forget how short this month feels and its only 2-3 days shorter.  We started the month with Lils ending her girl guiding story, sadly her group closed and with her only have a few months till she would be to old for guides she decided not to move groups, this was an emotional night and Lils was sad that she didnt make it to gold during her time there.  The weather for most of February has been wet and miserable but me and Liam ended up building a shed in ankle deep mud which was tiring.  Valentines and half term came around, Liam treated me to a cute mug and teddy and we just enjoyed the evening. The beginning of half term we took a trip to the cinema and the park then I managed to badly sprain my toe and was pretty much off of it for a week.  We did actually end the month with to family trips out, the first was to Arlington raceway to watch banger racing, again the weat...

February actually went by in a flash for me, we had so much going on I don't feel like I stopped. There has been parties, half term and work being crazy busy too, I feel like I need another half term to refresh. Our month started quite slow with just school, the girls clubs and meeting family, but once Valenitnes hit the month went full speed. We had a lovely chilled Valentimes, I got the girls some small gifts and me and Liam shared gifts and a meal together at home, we watched a film and went to bed. The week after was half term which was lovely, I really enjoyed the time of and the time with the girls, we took some trips and had some time at home too. the week started woith a trip to the cinema to watch paddington in Peru, we took a trip to Sissinghurt Castle   and Olivia made her Rainbow promise on world thinking day. Then it was straight back into school and work and what a week it has been at work, its been a busy one for many reasons so I was glad that the w...

Well February went by in the blink of an eye. It started off great then went down hill pretty quickly but were are coming out the other side. We started off February with an inset day for lils so we took the opportunity to take the girls swimming, it was such a good morning. That afternoon I had my first dentist appointment in a couple of year which went OK and have since had treatment there too. We took adventures to the park for rollerblading and scattering and tried to spend some quality time. But as half term hit so did the illness, the first couple of days were OK, we managed pancake day and Valentines and I did manage to take the girls to see Bingo and Bluey but they night I felt awful, this then hit us all and the rest of the week we were all in bed with the worst cold. This then went on for me and Liam and we are only really getting better now, luckily the girls were better a lot sooner. On top of the cold ai ended up with an ear infection which has been awful and h...

  Valentines day is right around the corner and every year I get a little something for the girls, I feel that this is an important thing to do to show that they are loved and an integral part of our family. I just try to get some little bits and bobs that I know will make them smile and I always pick up a card too. This year I managed to find a card in Morrisons that is specifically designed for daughters, I had to change it a little to suit both the girls but I absolutely love the design. They also had for sons, Mum's and Dad's and it was less than £1 too. Next I managed to find some valentines chocolate coins, these are also from Morrisons and cost £1 each, they have cute heart designs or little notes on such as 'True love' and 'Love is all you need'. Lastly is just a little treat it, I picked up a rainbow plushie from Morrisons which was £2, this is something that she has pointed out a couple of times and I knew that she would appreciate this. I then picked ...
