Some parts of this week have been quite difficult for me, so I NEED to write my gratitude list. This week I love;
- that Baby has learned to say Daisy (one of her BFF’s) and Archie (SIL’s dog). She sounds soooo cute!
- how amazingly brave Baby was in her swimming lesson this week and how her Daddy was there to see it.
- how kind my BIL is. He is currently helping Mr Hubby make over our living room.
- that I now (since BritMumsLive) have two new friends, who I feel as if I have known forever – Em and Hannah
- the beautiful weather we are having, long may it last.
- the feeling of Baby asleep on my chest before she goes down for the night.
- my amazing husband, who came home from work and rescued me on Monday when I was having a bad day.
- that I ‘found’ some stones on the beach, which will soon become ladybirds for Baby’s garden.
- that we are getting to spend some time with Baby’s Aunty Jen this week. We LOVE Aunty Jen!
So what are you grateful for this week?
I am linking up with This Enchanted Pixie’s 52 weeks of gratitude and Honest Mums Brilliant Blog posts linky.

Sorry you’ve not had a good week. Hope next week is better for you 🙂
We made ladybird stones when Aiden was three. When we moved house in February this year, we had to totally empty the garden at our old house and we found 2 of the ladybird stones we had made. They’d lasted 10 years!

That’s great! I can’t wait to get them home and transform them x
Some lovely things. It is even more Important to remember the good things when we are having a bad week!
Author
Thank you. It helps you think the glass is half full x
Lovely list. And I too love that feeling of your baby being asleep on your chest. It doesn’t last long though – they grow up so quickly.
Author
Thank you. It is the best feeling x
So sweet, I love it when f falls asleep on my chest and he’s not so small anymore but it’s amazing all the same.x
Author
Thanks. Baby has trouble fitting on my chest like she used to x
Beautiful, the baby sleeping on your chest or in your arms is one I relate to, I feel so grateful to have two healthy, happy children. I now try to breathe in every moment (losing a friend to cancer recently and friends with very poorly kids have put life into perspective even more for me lately)-I try and relish every moment of a beautiful view or eating great food or just us lot being us-we are terribly lucky. Thanks for this wonderful post and linking up to #brilliantblogposts

Thanks hun. It is so easy to get in the negatives of day to day life and writing this keeps me on track to positivity x
