Don't know why??

how times flies......

our 'harram' pumpkin!

ahhhggg he's soo damn edible
jeez, i know it's such a cliche thing to say, but time has sped by me, bub's is almost 10 months(cant believe it) summer come n gone , now in the midst of winter...forgive me for sounding old(well i am ) i have totally neglected myself, health, appearance, esp my hair, which now resembles a dried out weed, gross, NEED to sort something out and pronto....i would like to go for something completely different, at the same time, i love the length, and as i wear a scarf( hijab) i would like to be able to still put it up, look at kacey's hair, i stopped watching e-enders since ramadhan, can't believe it still myself, asi've been watching it since the very very beginning with me maman, but during ramadhan it was soo hard to catch up that i just gave up, to be fair i don't really miss it...strange...but true i assure you!

GROSS...??

Hey.....well just a short update, this is my 8 year old son, who has come out of his ben 10 fixation and moved onto Moshi Monsters  instead, so naturally when he came shopping with me(which i hate!) he saw the 'lolli-plops'and HAD to make me buy , they tasted 'ok' if your';e hungry, they are quite a revolting green colour  , but despite that he was quite pleased, but bubba didn't take to them much!!! lol

Mmmm...

THIS N THAT

brrrrrrr, now i'm all warm and cosy in my messy living room, i wanted to share with you my little list of items i bought for....guess who???...yep that's right baba!!

not that impressed.

left a home cooked meal, from scratch, for this!

defo not impressed.

i get sent a tonne of vouchers/coupons for baby products, i MUST use them, even if i don't need it, i must use them coz it's the law.my baby really isn't into food soo much, and finger food, he just can't be 'bovvered' the teething granules i love, it's something i never tried before with the other kid's and it's a homeopathic  remedy so its gotta be good, i CANNOT stay with one product on anything, and like trying new stuff, so i bought the 'naked baby ' bubble foam, it wasn't the most expensive nor was it cheap, but it was sooooo CRAP it was like water, you had to put in soo much, it took about a week to finish a big  bottle whereas a bottle would usually last at least a month, so won't be buying this again.As my baby doesn't eat soo much, i decided another way to give him what his missing is vitamin's, so down to boots i trott,and settled upon the 'wellkid baby and infant, he really hates it and its brown and thick and gloopy,but i still give him it, i've missed a few day's due to him putting me off by spitting half of it out, but i know i must continue....so guy's there you have it,my small haul that took a whole afternoon of deciding and gave me great pleasure!, ciow for now....xx

SLEEP....WHAT'S THAT AGAIN?

salam and 'hi' gosh im surprised i even have time to update this blog!, i love my baby and all, but i cant deal with the lack of sleep, i know, i know its only normal, of course, he has a mouth full of little teeth , lots poking through, becoming VERY frustrated at attempting crawling(wow what a milestone already!) its super cute actually, he'll push himself up onto all 4's, might i add with the most edible bum in all of u.k(lol) then......wait for it.........dive into the floor like a frog hopping, but its not really him that's exhausting me, its my seven and a half year old, deciding on waking me up at least 5 -1000 x during the night, telling me 'i can't sleep, what shall i do" or"im swaeting' all kind of excuses its really peeing me off, not too sure how to deal with it, he has a lamp in his room plus his next door to me,plus the hallway light stays on all night, im just lost........ and TIRED if anyone else has gone through this please let me know how you came out the other side!

super clingy baby

baba with cousin and big sister,doing what he does best...ripping hair out!

stuff.............

heeeyyy, yep ,see i said i'll be back ...i even surprised myself! we're officially in autumn, bit chilly out, getting slightly darker earlier and the general groggyness that accompanies this blasted month, one of the mum's at school, who btw is ALWAYS cheery and seeing the lovely side of things(bah!)explained to me, in length why she and her kids 'just adore' september....i still failed to see the 'lovely' side, for me autumn/winter just means me being a  slave to my laminate floor's, (i cannot think of anything worse than unclean floors, big time) i wish i could use a remote control and 'fast foward' these months to come...
looks are deceiving !

this year i have really made an effort with my garden, when i say 'i', i mean i got someone else to do the planting and digging and all the hard work!, BUT my garden is looking wonderfully lush, i have many things growing,blueberries, a cherry tree, a pear tree, red currents, a herd garden, its soo 'wicked', or actually as my son would say,'bear sick"...which is a good thing, oh did i mention a fig tree, yep that's right, you read correctly!, and ...wait for it....a lemon tree, with growing lemon's, i feel soo happy mash'allah, my baby has tasted most of these things...nice n organic!
this was just early march!


my daughters nails
my front
my figs!!!!
so i was talking to a dear friend who showed me her'toamtoes' at the back of her garden...lol, no really she did, and they did look a lil different, no offence to her, but even she said so herself, and i found this pic of perfectly edible 'freaky' tomatoes, so im sure they will taste just a good, if not better.....till very soon, mwah x 100
different but nice:)

too long.....

howdy, salaam, hello...OMG its been waaay too long since my last update, way way too much has happened , i'm gonna have to remember in dribs n drab's to tell you guy's, the main thing is....KIDS ARE BACK AT SCHOOL , school, school, how i appreciate you (and the founder!) i honestly felt like i was on a prison sentence for the past 7 weeks.my bub's has about 5 teeth, i swear there not even 'normal theeth' there blimmin razor blade's!, he can sit unaided for a wee while, and just practising being super cute, saw family ALOT ,  a bit too much for my liking, things were really getting on top of me, anyhoo can't grumble(well i can and have been, things are still very tough for me, i hope my situation  eases?) at times i've even wondered if i have bi-polar disease?, no joke...i hope not, i just think im under intense stress, and i'm only human therefore can only deal with soo much before i start to frizzle


i feel like this, only much less cute!

well i shall leave you now, and PROMISE to be back real soon, take care dear people...xx
