My Week In Pictures 14/52

What a week that was!! I started to feel very run down

Monday/Tuesday thought no more of it that it was just fatigue

and the joys of being a busy working Mum

Started off a fitness plan on Wednesday 

woke 5am on Thursday morning unable to hear

and with a golf ball sized lump on my left jaw!

I have an ear infection in both ears

and a jaw infection :(

Saturday:

Oisin playing on his new swings with his Dad!

Sunday:

I love these two so much
my Son and Goddaughter

Monday:

Sick of feeling so tired all the time
I am run down and need a tonic
also decided that I am going to get my fitness back on track
and give my the boost I need
I also now have a horrible ear infection :(

Tuesday:

Bought new trainers time to get fit
and get rid of this baby weight!

Wednesday:

Our little boy is getting so big he is almost
out of 12 month clothes already!
He is teething so badly its nice to see him sleeping

Thursday:

Been to the doctors after waking up
not being able to hear and a
golf ball sized lump on my left jaw
turns out I have an ear infection in both ears
and a jaw infection!
I am on strong penicillin antibiotic, ear drops and
pain killers
My Mam and Dad are great they looked after Oisin while Paul
was in work and now if this doesn't cure me nothing will
a huge bowl of my Mammy's Irish Stew nothing beats it!

Friday:

My view right now
told by the doctor to rest, rest rest after
I blacked out today.
Thank God my parents-inlaw where looking after Oisin
Paul was called home from work and I
feel like and idiot!
The medication I am on for my infections is very strong
and I didn't realise that and wasn't resting up as
I should have been lesson learned!

Things That Made Me Say Yeah 9/52

A really late post this week but here is what made me say yeah this past weekend:

We bought Oisin an early birthday present of a set of swings

looking at his face on them was priceless

he loves his swings and cries when he has to finish on it!

Our back yard still looks like a bit of a forest but we are doing our best to try 

get it finished and cleaned up before the end of the summer

Falling asleep with this little man after a day of playing on swings

I love moments like this

My Uncle and Goddaughter where staying over this weekend
and we had some more lovely family time
I love how Oisin and Laura May are together
This is what makes my heart smile

Five Things 38/52

Happy Monday everyone hope your weekend was a good one. We had a nice one getting in the Christmas mood in November and now I want to put up our Christmas tree! Of course Hubby is saying no way...and maybe that's a good thing for now!! Here are my five things from the weekend:

Having my first festive Starbucks of Christmas this is our little Christmas tradition I love coffee anyway but there is something about getting a festive Starbucks coffee that starts Christmas off for me! I had a decaf gingerbread latte with a piece of lemon cake it was lovely! It was sneaky as cake is totally not on my gestational diet but it was a once off!

Lighting my Cherries on Snow candle and the whole living room being filled with a Christmas smell!

Remembering my wonder beautiful Nanny it was her 16th Anniversary this weekend.

Having family time with my Uncle and Goddaughter. Myself, Paul, Mam and Dad went over to my Uncle's to surprise my Goddaughter for her 13th birthday, her birthday is not till the 30th of November but the lucky duck will be in Paris on a student exchange so we had a little family night for it over the weekend. She is getting so grown up!!

My main craving of the weekend! Roast chicken with all the trimmings! It was so yummy and I really really enjoyed it!

That's my five things from the weekend what's yours?

Five Things 26/52

Happy Monday!! Hope you all had a lovely weekend! It's not a bank holiday here in Ireland as we had ours at the start of the month! The weeks are flying by and I can't believe we are almost at the end of August and Summer!! We had a busy weekend of visiting my brother's grave, meeting with friends, then visiting family, shopping and then I got a cold!

My Uncle, Paul and my Goddaughter. Myself, Paul and my parents visited my Uncle and Goddaughter this weekend. It was great to see them, I have spoke on the phone etc but haven't actually seen them since I got pregnant. They where so happy to see me and bump! My Uncle is a chef so we had a huge yummy dinner which was great too! We had a lovely family day together and I love days like that.

New favourite Yankee candle its called Garden Hideaway its a lovely fresh smell of cut grass mixed with fresh flowers.

This has been a life saver this weekend when I came down with a slight cold. I can't use much cold medicine with being pregnant so when I was told I could use this it was great. I put some in some warm water and inhaled it and then at night I put in on my pillow to help me breathe.

I know I used this picture last week for five things but I met up with my friend Susan this weekend. She treated me to a lovely Chinese meal this weekend it was lovely but of course I forgot to take a picture! So I had to reuse this pic! We had a lovely evening of scoffing Chinese food, talking about little blip and of course some wedding planning for her wedding in 2015!!

I got another maternity buy! This top perfect for when the weather starts to change when its too cold for t-shirts but too warm for jumpers! This is not actual a maternity top it's just a large size it's from Dunnes stores and it's €12

Well that's my five things hope you had a nice weekend.
