Holiday Plans


My mum and I have been talking about trying to get a little holiday organised for a while now. Our previous 2 attempts fell through unfortunately. We had booked Disneyland Paris but my dad suffered a seizure and some heart problems and we ended up having to cancel. We then booked to go to the Lake District but my dad suffered with some health problems again. So, we changed the date. My dad got better then a few weeks before we were due to go we were in a car crash. We then had no way of getting to our holiday without it costing a fortune.

So, today we booked our hotels in Blackpool! We're going for a Monday to Friday holiday on 13th October! We're staying in the Premier Inn hotel that's right at the back of the Pleasure Beach theme park. I'm so excited for the kids! I'm sure they'll love it! There's so much to do. At the moment we're collecting the tickets from Kellogg's cereal packets. It offers an adult ticket free with any full paying child or another adult for the Sea Life Center, Madame Tussaud's and the Blackpool Tower!

For our room, for 4 nights, it cost £116. I think that's pretty good considering it's for 2 adults and 3 kids! This time we're travelling by train so there will be no problems with getting there should anything go wrong! We've still to book our train tickets but I'm waiting to try and get a better deal.


There's so much for the kids to do. We're going to the Pleasure Beach to Nickelodeon Land. There's also a big swimming pool called the Sandcastle. We're going to watch sticky rock being made, to the millions of arcades and maybe to the Blackpool Tower circus! There's also the beach and donkey rides. That's on top of what was listed for the Kellogg's deal.

Now, it's time to make holiday lists! Haha!

LUSH Haul



I've been desperate for some new Lush things for a while. I haven't had any since Christmas. So, I put in a little order online. Then the following day, my mum went out shopping and asked if I wanted anything picked up. So, I got her to see if any of the eggs were left. She also got a little treat each for the kids. Excluding Macey of course!


I got Tea Tree Water spray, 'Think Pink' bath bomb, 'Sakura' bath bomb, 'Pop In The Bath' bubblebar and my all time favourite, 'Creamy Candy' bubblebar! My mum picked up the egg for me. I can't remember what this one was called.  And the kids got an 'Ickle Baby Bot' each. Of course I had to share my egg with Keira. She also stole my 'Think Pink' and my 'Sakura' bombs. So far all I've had is half an egg and a third of 'Creamy Candy'. With my next order I'm making sure I order double everything! Haha!


Inside the egg! A little chick bomb!

School Bullies

I knew it would come at some point but I was really hoping it wouldn't at all. Keira is being bullied at school by a boy in her class. She doesn't seem all that fazed by it but I'm really upset and angry by it. She's mentioned him a couple of times at home and yesterday I spoke to a teacher about it. She said that as far as she was aware they egged each other on. Then in the afternoon when Paul picked her up from school the deputy head teacher pulled him to the side to tell him about what had happened during the day. Apparently this little boy punched Keira in the nose whilst putting his jacket on. He claimed it was an accident, yet when she cried he laughed and called her a 'weirdo'. This upsets me the most because Keira has Autism. And obviously, her behaviour and her general manner can seem a bit odd to someone who doesn't have Autism. The school is going to be dealing with and speaking to the boy's parents (I think) but what I wouldn't give to have a minute with him for a quiet word. If only. I don't understand it because I would never let my child talk to anyone like that. And if they did they would be in serious trouble for it. They are being taught to respect everyone and everything.
Now I'm terrified for her future in school. Especially high school. People can be so cruel. I wish I had the money to send her to school for kids with difficulties or home school her!

Nutmeg Kids Haul

I've been really curious about Nutmeg by Morrison's clothing range for a while now but no store near me was big enough to have clothes in it. Recently a new shop opened not too far from me and it's huge! After seeing some pictures of lovely outfits from there I decided to take a trip in to see it all for myself! The clothing range in this shop wasn't huge but they did have a nice variety and it's all very reasonably priced.
I got a few things for Macey, a shower proof jacket and pants for Logan, and pants for Keira. They didn't have any actual clothing that I liked for Keira. I only wish they had an online shop! I didn't manage to get a picture of Logan's jacket but it's covered in dinosaurs! Which is perfect for my dino obsessed 2 year old!

American Psycho by Brett Easton Ellis


This book took me so long to finish! I started reading it towards the end of my pregnancy but struggled due to tiredness!
I think a lot of people are mixed about this book. It has very detailed descriptions of sex and violence which I think put a lot of people of. It's not for the faint of heart! I'm pretty strong minded and not overly easy upset. I pretty much loved this book! Read if you're into murders and executions ;)


This And That..

I'm going to try my hardest to blog more often! It's so hard to find spare time with 3 kids and house to look after!

Macey is now 7 weeks old (8 weeks on Friday!) She had her check up with the health visitors today. She is now 10lb 5oz (almost the same as Logan at birth!) and 56cm long. She's still doing really well. Looks so different already!

Logan and Keira are doing great! Logan got his nursery placement for August! It's exciting!

Off to make a 'posts to write' list!

If it's some variation of crash crash. It's my favourite Murderdolls song.
"I'm at the end of my noose I've got nothing to lose. I'm digging my own grave and that's thr truth. My self esteem is low and I'm so high. And I don't give a f**k if I live or die. Just bury me in my self pity. Can't even get myself to talk to me. I'd kill myself but it wouldn't help. Can't someone put me out of my misery. I'm going down, I was born to die, I'm going down, I'll never say goodbye. Crash crash. It's a hit, it's a bang, it's a smash"
