Friday Feels

Processed with VSCO

Hello lovelies! Hope you’ve all had a good week! It’s been a bit wet and grey here, but we’ve been busy as ever. We’re off on holiday on Monday so I’ve been trying to get caught up/ahead of myself so I can take a week off! Plus it’s Lola’s birthday on Sunday so I’m trying to get organised for that too {hello teenage years!}. I’m going to be spending this weekend packing and wrapping birthday gifts! Lola has a friend sleeping over tomorrow night, so I think the little girlies and I will have a movie night of our own too. I can’t believe I’m about to be the Mama of a teenager… way to make me feel O.L.D.!!

Here are a few favourite things from this week…

* Loved this post on Mother about ‘Reframing’ – another idea from the Danish way of parenting {I’m seriously considering emigrating…!}

* How AMAZING are these childbirth photos??! I wish I had some photos to capture those moments.

* I’ve got my eye on this gorgeous loose fit dress from La Redoute – perfect for late spring days {and not so hot summer ones!}

* I always used to make my own bread, and I’ve fallen out of the habit {well, I did a couple of years ago!} and it’s about time I started again – love this easy bread recipe from More Than Toast

* I’m trying to eat less refined sugar {doing pretty good so far}, I’ve been missing that little sweet treat mid-afternoon. I just whipped up a batch of these Gingerbread Raw Bars {I’d forgotten how good they are} and also have been enjoying a slice of toast, topped with nut butter and sliced banana – tastes really indulgent whilst being a pretty good for you snack!

* Love these gladiator sandals!

* Beastie and I have been loving using our Mountain Buggy Juno carrier- it’s what I took when we went to London. I’ll write a proper review soon!

* I need {want} some new PJ’s. I’ve been living in the same one’s since Beastie was born and I fancy something prety for the spring. There are actually some cute ones in the Fat Face sale so I may have to treat myself!

Now…I need to go do some packing! Tell me one good thing from your week….

    Have a lovely holiday! I’m jealous, our house move was so stressful we could do with a holiday but there is still so much to sort out!! But the sun is making it more bearable :) xx

    I also can’t believe you almost have a teen!! you’re away too young I’m sure! I also wish I had some nice birth pics but think I would have felt a bit awkward having someone else there x

    Thank you so much for including me, lovely! That’s a great dress – I recently discovered La Redoute and love it! The Bensimon pumps they sell are ace x

    I hope you have a lovely break away and can’t wait to read about your holiday – also Happy Birthday to your “now” teenager, what an exciting time. We have also been loving the Juno Moutain carrier and think it’s amazing – so supportive on the back
