Tie it up now.

Little Me wears: A River Island skirt, a New Look jacket, H&M faux fur stole, Primark boots and Matalan bag.
Little B wears: An Ark top*, Topman jeans, a River Island beanie and Matalan boots.

Today I felt cool. Like really cool. And if you've read this blog for a while, you'll know that this is all I try to achieve in life.. Well, yes, today felt like just that. All because I tied my skirt! Thanks to Look magazine!
Little B felt like he was going places today with his £10 blazer from Primark thrown on top of his Zac Efron look. I think sometimes he thinks he's some sort of teacher when he swans around in the blazer, or probably even a doctor knowing him! So with us feeling a bit cool and on top of the world, we headed out for a cheeky stroll (partly to burn off the huge lunch that we'd just eaten!).


This ford that we stopped at, reminded me so much of my childhood where Papa G would always drive the car through on a weekend, giving us much delight in the smallest of things. I think Little B fell in love with it a bit too, even admitting that he could imagine bringing his children over here in the Summer... He can hold back on those broody thoughts for a while yet! I got new clothes to buy for me, never mind little little's.
Plus Little R and Little S are enough for us at the moment, we've got seeds and dreamies to clean up!

This and that.

This week Little R has been in a right hungry mood. He's constantly been eyeing up dinners, and treating himself to a few cheeky crepes! Today we visited the farm shop. The potting shed always looks inviting.

Yesterday, Kimbolina came to visit. Today was spent taking some silly photos in an abandoned house, and going for a delicious lunch of panini's and curly fries. And possibly the best milkshakes in town.

Last night, we tucked into a fondue feast and spent the evening watching films and catching up. This morning had to be started with a chocolate filled breakfast too. All we've done this weekend is eat! Strawberries mainly.

This week Little S has been racing around in his wheel and going a little crazy. He's enjoyed lots of late night cuddles too. Little R has become the hair bobble thief, and taken a liking to the chest of drawers.

This week, we've been drinking a LOT of chocolate milk. We're not big milk drinkers, but a chocolate milk before bed is a winner. This week I featured in Look magazine, and my friend got a little excited in Tesco..

Noah's Ark.

Little Me wears: A lace crop top and polka dot skirt from Ark* and Primark pumps.
Little B wears: A print polo from Ark*, Topman jeans and Matalan shoes*.

It could have possibly been another one of those 'couple dressing similar' days, but it's not. For starters Little B isn't wearing a skirt, and I'm not wearing jeans. So, yeah, we're really not nearly dressing similar.
As most normal people do in the world (or is this so abnormal, it's normal?) when a package arrives through your front door that morning, you feel that you have to wear whatever is inside. Well, that's what we did. Although now we're itching for our holiday where we can parade around in our short shorts. That's just me, Little B's shorts aren't too short. He's more of an knee swinger short kinda guy. Ooh groovy.


We'll let you into another secret (or not so secret), that this is Little B's first ever printed polo shirt. After debating it for what seemed like a decade, he realised that, actually sometimes, women do make good choices! And hey, maybe I am getting closer to owning that floral sofa that I would so very much like...
Aside from flower printed sofa shopping, I'm on the hunt for some new shoes, and we've been getting sidetrapped by boots. Airstep shoes have a nice variety that we've got our eyes on. We're both suckers for a good pair of boots. Maybe it's time to start leaving post it notes around the house of pretty shoes. And sofas!

A typical Monday.

9.30am: Wild breakfasts. Monday's never start without breakfast. It's our only day to eat breakfast together, so it normally consists of pancakes, crumpets or sausage and scrambled eggs... And today was a crumpet one. With all the toppings too (worlds most indecisive eater!).

10am: Postman dash. A rare moment where we were actually in for the post man, which resulted in a frantic dash downstairs in a towel (the closest thing we could find to cover our pants!) but ending up with a delightful package.

11.30am: The vets. With Little R still only a baby (and apparently not going to grow much more - officially a Little!) he needed some more jabs. The car home was fun, with him being allowed out of his basket and sitting so eagerly at the window. Screw you funny looks!

1.30pm: The walk. A walk that normally always turns into a blog post! If it's not raining, it's always nice to get outside for some fresh air, and feel like we've actually done something on our day off.

3.45pm: Organising hot chocolate. OK, so this doesn't happen daily, but today I decided that something needed to go in these pots after almost 2 months! With our varied flavours of hot chocolate it seemed the best thing to re-arrange into.. Even if it only fills up two cups!

7pm: Feast for four. We always try to make sure we have a proper sit down dinner together too, with it being our only evening (we are really a couple!) and tonight we decided on one of our secret favourites, burritos! Complete with some cider too.

9.30pm: Cosy corner. We never need to find an excuse to get into bed for a snuggle and a film. Normally Little R is always the first one to the bedroom too, and there's always extra room for some chocolate or strawberries and a delicious wispa hot chocolate!
