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;
- Listening to Baby shush (with a finger to the lips) random barking dogs in the street.
- That I am one of five finalists in the Non-Dad category of the Love All Dads 2014 Awards!. So honoured.
- That Diet Chef are supporting me with my weight loss.
- The way that Baby steals everything I try to eat with a tilt of her head and an open mouth!
- That I have risen in the EBuzzing rankings to 18 in Parenting and 45 in blogs overall.
- Cuddling Baby in the dark, when she put both arms around my head and gave me a massive cuddle.
- The look on Baby’s face when I let her try tea (a drop on the end of my finger), a massive smile and she said ‘tea’
- That Baby put her wellies on all by herself! #ProudMama
- Watching Baby try to cuddle the computer screen (while saying ahhhh) when she saw kittens on someone’s post.
- Watching Baby playing in puddles.
So what are you grateful for this week?

Well done on being a finalist for the Non-Dad award! Thats awesome and good luck!
I took my little one pudding splashing the other day and she had so much fun! It’s so lovely how the simple things are amazing for them
Such a great idea to make a gratitude list. Now you have made me think about what I should be happy about and I realise that there is a lot to be happy about. The best one was my son getting 3 job interviews.
Well done on being a finalist and love this x
That’s a great list and a lovely way to record memories? This week I’d probably include a family night snuggled on the sofa watching the Great British Bake Off final. #sharewithme
thanks for linking up! Clever Baby putting on her own wellies 😀
Aww your baby sounds cute and you have lots of cool memories from each day.
Huge congratulations on being a finalist over at the LADS… I nominated you so Im glad to see you make the list. Thats excellent news about Diet Chef too. I wish they’d ask me to take a journey with them too.
I had to laugh at baby stealing everything you eat. She too is helping you, along with diet chef!!
Puddle fun is fabulous! My daughter went through a phase of being completely terrified of rain after getting quite wet in it once. We managed to get her through with a lot of puddle jumping!
I am grateful for the friends I have round me
Good luck with your weight loss journey – I have heard that Diet Chef are really good.
