Blogtember fail!

*walks in sheepishly* ...

Hi, as you may of noticed I haven't been keeping up with blogging everyday, oops! Well, my excuses are that we had a very busy week last week and today I started a full time job! Yeay! So I think that is a good enough reason to have a week off, isn't it?! 

Anyway, I hope you all have a lovely weekend and I will be posting tomorrow - Saturday. 

My new schedule from now on will be on Wednesdays and Saturdays and if I manage to post any extra, then think of it as a special treat!

Day 3: Shampooheads!

Hiya lovelies!

This is a post for you mummies out there!

I recently won a competition to win some children's bubble baths, the company sent me the three bottles above. I thought I would tell you about this relatively new brand which does hair and body care products for children, as my son loves these. Their website can be found here: www.shampooheads.com  They can also be found in some Boots, Waitrose and Chemists (you can check on their website where they stock). 

First of all the packaging is bright and engaging for children but simple at the same time so I know exactly what it is and what scent it is which make it easy to spot in the supermarket. These bubble baths are priced at £2.99 each on their website and are made in the U.K. 

We were given 'Raging Rosie-Strawberry', 'Awesome Annie-Tropical Fruit' and 'Busy Bob-Blueberry'! They are all 500ml bottles. The scent of these are amazing, they are so fruity! I think my favourite is the Blueberry one, it smells like real fruit. As they are children's bubble baths they bubble up great - I only put a tiny bit in and got lots of bubbles which is fab. They are also 'Tear free' - which is must for children and they are Hypoallergenic.  

They are really worth the money and I would buy they when we run out - these are going to last us awhile! 

Hope you enjoyed this little post today as part of #blogtemberchallenge ! Go take a look at others which are taking part in the challenge too. 

Thanks for reading,

Day 2 :What makes me happy

Hi, so day 2 of the #blogtemberchallenge and the question is what makes me happy?

Everyone has there ups and downs throughout their days or weeks but generally I am quite a happy person, I try to look to the positives when moments are hard and not let things get to me. I love the simple things in life which make me smile and content in my life. I'm quite a over thinking person and this can be both great at times but can make me quite a worrier! So remembering happy things helps me get over the negatives. 

Here's a list of things that make me happy:

- Tea in the morning 

- eating scones

- sitting down all together for a Sunday lunch

- going for a walk and taking our son to the park

- looking back at photos and videos of our son, me and my partner. Especially the ones of us on holiday in Cyprus. 

- swimming in the sea and snorkelling to watch the fish (this doesn't happen everyday!!)

- sunny, relaxed weekends in the garden

- going for a fast bike ride around the lanes 

- family parties, dancing, music and lots of laughter

- Christmas - everything about it is magical and I love how close the family is at this time of year. 

- cosy fires, hot chocolates and snuggles

- singing 

- blogging

- watching my nemo fish do their crazy swimming

- bunnies and piggies

- spending the day on the beach and getting sea hair

- being engaged to my first love 

- having a lovely home 

- going for family trips out

- completing my degree in Education 

- taking pictures

Hopefully that gives you a little bit of an insight to what makes me happy! Ofcourse there are many many other things. What makes you happy? 

Thanks for reading!

Blogtember challenge!

Evening, this is rather late and not a good start is it?! I have been meaning to do this post all day but just haven't got around to do it. I've been sorting uniform out and bags and packing lunch, ready and all organised for tomorrow! I'm trying out the Blogger app on my iPad so if it turns out rubbish I do apologise and I'll do it on the PC next time!

So the #blogtemberchallenge can be found: http://www.braveloveblog.com/2014/08/the-blog-tember-challenge.html?m=1 

It basically means I will be (fingers crossed!) be blogging everyday for the month of September. I will try my best to bring you good quality posts- they will be a mixture of the ideas on the list from the challenge and my own posts. I think this will bring more of my own ideas to the challenge. Plus I have got some very exciting new products to show you, one of which is all the way from America! - more on that in a couple of weeks. 

Hopefully the challenge will get me into blogging more regularly at the end and I'll get into more of a routine of when I'll be posting. I'm planning on doing a mixture of posts so they will be different and interesting- some will be chatty/ life related and others will be a specific topic or product (beauty/fashion) related. Also I thought it would be the perfect time to put more into blogging as my son is starting school tomorrow it will give me something to focus on over the next month. 

If you would like to join in will the challenge please follow the link above on my home page there is a button to the post. It's really relaxed so don't worry if you can't do every day, it's just about having fun and chatting to more bloggers- use the the hash tag #blogtemberchallenge to keep up with how others are doing with the challenge too! 

So please join me on this little adventure whether you're reading or writing, I hope you enjoy my posts, I've got lots planned! 

Thank you for reading,
