soldiers, kittens and polka dots

Rosie: dress worn as top: primark, cardigan: H&M, jeans: George at ASDA

Lily: top: H&M, trousers: H&M

I know you can't really see them in this picture, but I love the jeans I'm wearing here! I really struggle to find good fitting jeans (as most people seem to) and these I found for £14 at ASDA amazingly, and they fit so well and are really comfy! They're high waisted skinny jeans that are quite stretchy and feel really good quality. They have them in lots of colours too, I really want a mint green pair next!

The dress I'm wearing as a top is one that was in primark ages ago, I got it just before I found out I was pregnant last year, and didn't end up wearing it before I got too big for it! So today I wore it for the first time, but as a top. Short dresses aren't that practical when your looking after a 6 week old baby! I love the print on it of the little red soldiers :)

I really love this little outfit Lily is wearing! It's so adorable! It had a cute little red polkadot hat with cat ears on too, but I've lost it, which is such a shame because it is so so cute!I think H&M is my favourite place for baby clothes. They are all cute, practical and really reasonable prices.

Today Lily and I went to see her great Grandma. She lives in a care home and the carers and other residents make such a fuss of little Lily! This evening, after some pizza, I think we will settle down with David and watch Deathly Hallows part 1 & 2. I think my David, Lily and Harry Potter might just be my favourite way to spend an evening!

Hello :) 

Finally, this morning I managed to get Lily to sleep for a little while somewhere other than in my arms! I took this opportunity to do my hair and pick out some jewelry to wear. This is a big difference to my usual getting dressed routine at the moment, which tends to be dash around super fast grabbing the first top and jeans I see and chuck my hair into a ponytail before Lily starts crying because I'm not holding her! So while this outfit may be quite boring, to me it was a big achievement!

The necklace I'm wearing is one of my favourites, I found it in a cute little handmade gift shop last year at the gardens where my graduation was held. The ring I'm wearing is one I made, more like this will be going up in the shop soon!

My little Lily wore her 'I love you mummy' baby grow today, one of my favourites! She is getting so big and changing so much already. She will be a month old on Sunday, which has come so fast! I love my little strawberry :)

How are you all?
