This week. House work

Image
I am currently doing lots of tracked walks with kids. Partially because Egg needs daily exercise, and because we will aren’t actually home at the moment. So all our regular thing and toys and distractions are available. We are incredibly lucky that our friend let us stay in her house for time being!  All out stuff been piled up in 2 rooms, or covered… and then builder came in and well this happened…  That is also why I am missing my new found love for sewing as the room where do my sewing is stuffed with all out things.  See the joys of over 100 year old properly not only occasional original feature, like 2 ladies by the light by the entrance, they are called Thelma and Louise by the way, and fire place… it is also rising dump…. And maybe roofing issue here and there.  House will be improved and no longer have flacks paint … however knowing it’s being done and actually seeing it is very different. I almost cried, it’s not just a house it’s our home!  It was also...

Pottery

Image
A while ago my friend and former work colleague said that she has been to a pottery class in my local coffee shop.  I though I never did ceramics I would love to have a go... I made a little house-tea light holder. It is wonky. And I really found it challenging. I had to only concentrate on task at hand, it required lost of procedures and well I didn’t enjoy it. So naturally I though I must do this again!  And sure enough this year the new course was announced and I’m stranding some of the classes.  Couple of weeks ago the theme was animals. And you know free building was more enjoyable. Or maybe it is because I leaned to be more in the moment and concentrate on just one thing, making this animal.  Yesterday we were making candles holders... it was a bit different story....  These three guys were made using different techniques and well it was super interring to learn how to and what are the differences. I found the building several from several pieces is harder...

I probably should stop lie

About my age. I have been saying that I am 23 or 25 for about 5 years now.  Truth is today I have turned 30.  (these beauties are from my boys) And it scares me! It's one of these scary milestones that you are not in your care free twenties and really should have achieved stuff in life... I think I just thought I will have more things to prove that I am adult.  I am married. Very serious thing to do. But we never are too serious.  We have this amazing toddler running a riot! Now that's a great thing to prove that you are an adult! But then again if I will be too serious I wouldn't be me at mumming!  We just bought a house. Now that an insanely grown-up thing to do but then again I wasn't really involved in the buying more in picking. Maybe I am over-thinking this... I won't be a stereotype they all expect form a 30 year olds...   It's my birthday today! Yay!! From becoming older I just hope to become better perso...

Babies babies babies

Oh yay royal baby is a little girl. Little princess! How cute! You know how I said I still struggle a bit with my new identity in the previous post? Well I cannot call Egg "my son" he is "my baby" or "my boys" (when two of them obviously), but never my son... Strange right. Oh if you are a mum or about to become one, I highly recommend One Bad Mother podcast. It's so much fun! Little man is doing great, eat sleeps and poops. He gets super excited when he sees the pool and splashes with both arms and legs now. Swimming lessons are more fun every time. However he is way too interested in the edges of the pool and how they feel.  And now also he is on the move. Crawls and pulls him self up to walk or stand around.... I think most of babies crawling then they starting to walk right? But now at the same time! Mama needs eyes everywhere. But now he learns to fall down properly & not hurting himself. I would say we get ...

One Month

On the 15th August my waters broke... Then on the 17th I heard my Milky Boy scream...  We had a really bad bad labour and a very long one, ended up with failed attempt with forceps and then a c section. So much for never being in hospital...  Milky Boy is a big boy, he was 9 pounds 4 ounces, 4kg 200gr for my metric friend... And he eats loads!  Considering how awful the labour has been, having my baby here is amazing! I still feel funny about being a mother, I'd rather not think about this as a life changing thing or as a new role. I take it every day as it comes and one problem at the time... that includes being peed on! So far I had a bit of baby blues... amazing it did not turn into full on depression!  Just holding him makes me so happy. We also discovered the joys of formula milk, that baby of ours eats soo much, so we have to top him up. And joys of dummy. Last one is very recent and saved me from being used as a dummy and now I ca...

Beautiful Bath

It is super exciting to be moving to Bath... its a super pretty place... But then again it's super scary... leaving the life of 7 years behind...  friends... I don't know where anything is... I know that there is no Cineworld or PureGym... So any advice about where to shop where to go and what to do will be highly appreciated!! We found the flat, big move is on the 7th of January!  Super stressful...Oh and new job! Will need to remember everyone's names... again!   but I'm actually looking froward to work with Sarah and Jon again...
