Photoshoot.

I Having two kiddies for a whole week was such a difference. It was so amazing to see how good Harry was with enjoying a beautiful little sister. There was literally no jealousy and he was so excited to show her off to everybody that knocked on the door that came to see her. 
My friend came over to give my kiddies a beautiful Photoshoot so we had the pictures to keep forever. They were the majority of the families Christmas presents & was such a good idea. I'm so happy to hAve so beautiful kiddies xx 





















Harry Being A Big Brother


Harry has amazed me so much!! With him only being 2 & a month when Lacey joined the family, he was still quite young. 
He has had our undivided attention for the past 2 years and all of a sudden a baby pops up & he has to share his mummy and daddy. We thought he would be so jealous and begin to behave badly. We'd heard so many bad things about newborns and they're 2 year olds acting up. 

....but he loves her!! So much!! 
Whenever he wakes up, he has to see Lacey. He has to have cuddles daily if not hourly. He has to have baths with her, she has to be there for his bedtime story. 
Whenever he goes to nursery or needs to say goodbye, he's always kissing her to say bubye. 
He is so gentle with her! It's like he knew this is what was going to happen. It's shocking tbh!:). 
Don't get me wrong, there have been some bad times & some hard times. 
There has been a few times he's been a bit too rough, or a bit too hyper...or when he decides he's had enough of being good and tests our patience...but what 2 year old is as good as gold every day ??! 

He is the most perfect big brother Lacey could ever wish for & being his mummy I am so proud to be able to say we've made him like that:) x 
He is (normally) a delight to take out & he acts so well...showing off Lacey to every person and dog !:) 
I just hope it lasts when she's taking all his toys away & running around causing arguments !:) xx

Lacey's welcome into the world :)

Our beautiful Lacey Rose was born at 8.20pm after a long day of constant contractions. 
I woke up at 5am, with contractions, deep down knowing this could finally be it. 6 days overdue & I tried to make it all normal while Harry was just waking up to start his day.
I'd ironed the pile of clothes I had on the side & I did the washing up while I was in pain thinking I had just slept funny. I then had a nice bath which didn't help anything. I kept thinking deep down that It was all false alarms and it's just the beginning of a very long slow labour...my in laws picked Harry
Up for the day as he was due to go to shopping with them...& I rang my mum to come over and keep me company while the hubby went to work!  I ended up going shopping with my mum, matalan, dunelm, pets at home....meanwhile I'm causally having contractions through out the shops. Even going to McDonald's drive thru, not being able to eat properly and jump out of the car because I couldn't eat properly.....after getting home about 4pm, I started to jump up & down on the birthing ball..Mitch came
Home from work and Harry came home from his day out :). Come 5pm I couldn't walk properly & we have the hospital a phone all. So we get told to come up & get checked out..meaning we had to get Harry to the inlaws again & we went up hospital. 
Everything slowed down then...I got checked out & nothing was happening; then the genius husband decided we should randomly do lunges around the birthing room & start bouncing on the birthing ball. I got in the pool as soon as everything started getting that little bit more uncomfortable. .... 8.20pm we welcomed our beautiful 7lb11oz little gorgeous girlie into the world. 
Most perfect day, finished with a most perfect little girl.
