I love the process of writing a weekly gratitude list, as it ensures I consciously take in the small, but lovely things that happen every day. Then, they are immortalised here on the page, so I will always remember.
This week I have loved;
- Watching Baby and Mr Hubby crawling around on the floor after each other (Yes, both of them CAN walk!).
- That I found a new band to listen to, Royal Blood (Love them!).
- My amazeballs hubby, who stayed home to look after Baby and I, when I was laid up with a bad back.
- My Sister in Law for coming to stay with me and Baby, while Mr Hubby is at the Dorset Steam Fair this week.
- Watching Baby eat with her fork #CleverBaby
- Creating artwork with Baby and Mr Hubby #FamilyTime
- That Mr Hubby notices when I get cold and brings me a blanket.
- The way Baby helps me in the morning by dragging the dog beds to the door, so we can shut them out for the day (out of the living room, don’t call the RSPCA!).
- Being snuggled up inside while the rain is hammering down.
- That I got to play with Mr Hubby’s camera on an outing. I love it!
So what are you grateful for this week?

Awww, so lovely, it’s nice to have so many things to be grateful for, reading this really made me stop and think about what I am grateful for as it’s so easy just to get caught up in the negatives and life in general and rushing to get stuff done. So, Thank You!
This week I am grateful for so much but mainly…
Every second I have spent with my daughter (thank you extended maternity leave), and the fact she slept through the night for the first time ever! She is 8.5 months old. And
my husband, just for being himself and making every day special.

You have LOTS of lovely things to be grateful for x
I totally sympathise with you and your bad back. Mine has been bad for a week now and it isn’t showing any sign of getting better. I’m having to use a walking stick to help me up out of the chair and steady me while I, very slowly, make me way around.
It’s a nightmare. Hope yours is all better now xx

Lots of things to be thankful for there! Your daughter really is growing up fast isn’t she!
It sounds like the hubby has been very good this week! xx
Aw lots of lovely happy things. I love being inside when the rain is pouring down, there’s nothing better than being wrapped up in the warm!
It’s nice that your Husband is so caring. You did well to squeeze rain into a gratitude list by the way! But I have to say Im with you on that one. I love listening to the rain in bed.
What a lovely list – I think this week I am grateful for having friends and family around me who care. x

A great list! Seeing happiness in the small things and appreciating them is so much more important than chasing the big dreams
Sounds like you are getting her well trained – we shut the cats out too as they sneak upstairs given half a chance :0)
