This Week In Photos

new1

Hellooo!

Last week I decided to take a little week off from both blogging and making videos for my main youtube channel. Since having Scout, I've noticed how hard I've found to not only find time for these things, but how much I lacked inspiration for them too. I mean, don't get me wrong, I really miss being able to sit and write or film when ever I want to; but when I did get a chance, I just didn't know what to talk about.
This week off has been pretty successful in getting my creative juices flowing again, and I'm excited to finally be back on my game with WhenFlowersFall...or whatever this will be called. (More to come on that tomorrow.)
I figured my first post back should be a little catch up; something nice and light, just to get my brain in the mood  to write again. So this is what's been keeping me busy this week.

1. Little bear is doing really well with his tummy time. Not only is his neck getting really strong, but he also wants to be constantly sat upright or standing up.
2. He's also discovered his hands and they are now always in his mouth. The dummy has become his second best.
3. Last Sunday night I had a really bad pain again. I'm not sure I've mentioned much about it on here, but I've talked about it a lot on twitter. Because of this, I woke up feeling really ill Monday morning and Liam took the day off work to help out with Scout.
4. We've starting making a conscious effort to give more attention to the animals. Something that's been lacking since Scout was born.
5. Scout's sleeping is still very hit or miss. This particular photo was taken after a bad night. He was only sleeping in ten minute bursts. I was one tired Mama.
6. We were without hot water for four long, stinky days. Our boiler decided to pack in and it didn't get fixed until Thursday. Strip washes just don't make you feel clean!
7. I'm still on mission weight loss. Again, there will be more on that in a future post. But this is now my usual breakfast of choice.
8. Not only has Scoutman discovered his hands, but he's also started mastering how to get other objects into his mouth too.
9. On Friday we started the bank holiday weekend off the right way. With a long doggy walk...
10. ...and a big fatty meal out. What's that about a diet??
11. Today we've really seen Scout's personality start to shine. He finds so many things funny now, but we're still waiting to hear that first giggle.
12. Yesterday we had a little road trip to see a couple of friends. The boys had the babies, whilst Steph and I went to have our nails done. I didn't even think to post a photo of them until today. As a usual lover of acrylics, I'm rather liking the gel manicure I had done.

It's weird how much I've enjoyed writing this post. I know it's not much, but it's made me feel like I've accomplished something today. Something I really don't feel all too often any more.
So I'm sorry for disappearing again. It sure is heart breaking watching the daily view count drop dramatically each day there's no new post; but it was much needed and hopefully things will be on a good roll from now on. There will be a few new weekly or bi-weekly features and if I have my own way, there will be some new creative posts coming in the future too.

I hope you've all been really well. I know it's only been a week or so, but it feels like I've been away for ever.
Find me on
