I am still trying to shift my baby weight and get back into shape, its hard to find the time to do it. I have a little time in the morning before Pops finishes school but Taylor is soo not great a sleeping its hard to find any time. He is very clingy at the moment and cries if I put him down. I am desperately trying to squeeze in some time. For those of you Gym bunnies or girls that love to work out, Stella Mccartney and Addidas has just launched their new spring 2014 collection. Its very cool. Its designed with different sports in mind including Yoga, swimming, running , cycling and tennis amongst others. I want it all. Here is a taster and you can pick your favorites here









Balloons




I love this idea, its really gives balloons an extra something. Makes them seem really special.
I am going to use this idea for Pops birthday party, get some clear balloons and fill them with confetti
add streamers and tissue paper with some string. i think the girls will love them.



Molly Meg

Book


As you have probably guest by now i love a bit of denim. So when i discovered the great book i couldn't help but buy it and  i totally love it.




Its by Emily Current and Merrit Elliot the original creators of Current/Elliot Jeans. I suppose you can say is there next step in denim. A book titled A Denim Story : inspirations from bellbottoms to boyfriends. Its an ode to denim,  a visual narrative of the history of blue jeans. There's plenty of fashion icons from Cher, Patti Smith, Serg Gainsbourg and more. You can get a copy from Amazon.

Easter Treat

I love these little chocolate treats from Charbonnel et Walker. So cute. I know the chocolate will be scrummy too.
Happy eating!!







Where did the time go..

... this week has been crazy, non stop and hectic. Then i suddenly realised that it was Sunday. I have taken no pictures of the kids and have no written no posts. Sometimes life just runs away with you and you blink and the time has slipped away. Spending time with family and being a Mum and partner is more important than anything else and we forget this all too often.
I hope you are all having a good week and are looking forward to Easter weekend. I know I am. Lets hope this weather keeps up and its stays warm and sunny.

Cuddles are important don't forget to give lots of them.



Picture from pinterest. Happy Sunday xx

Ten 52


Pops wanted to take her babies everywhere this week. On her way back from swimming she decided to give this one a piggy back.



He really does hate tummy time. We try more and more each day. Some days he's happy mostly he's not.

Party Bag Fillers

Pops 4th birthday is slowly looming. Its the first time i said she could have a party. I am starting to think about what to do. She wants a mixture of boys and girls. I am not sure what to give as in the party bags.  There is so much to choose from and amounts to spend. You really have to do the maths otherwise you really can spend a fortune. Ebay and amazon of course are your best bets for cheapness. But its important to me that they are not full of too much tat. When Pops has been to a party the bags are usually full of the same thing. sweets, sticky wall men, tattoos, cake finger lights. I would like to be a little different without spending the earth. I am also thinking of cress seeds, homemade friendship bracelets, homemade fairy wands.








If you can add anything to help me along please do!!
