labor bag list

What’s in little mans?

Pregnancy Journey

What have I packed?…

I have been thinking about what to pack in my hospital bags for quite a while and I managed to find time to write yet another list! I decided I would pack my bag and baby’s bags separately.

The world may not be the same tomorrow, as it was yesterday. So I'm making the most of today. Everyday. These days, weeks, months, I pray not years, will not be wasted. Their yours little man, and I will give my all to them 🖤 Photo from our family holiday last month. Unbeknown to us what was to come 🖤

🖤 I S O L A T I N G W I T H K I D S 🖤 . . I've seen so many status claiming a period of isolation is just what the world needs. A time to read that book you've been meaning to read, to do the list of jobs around the home, to rest and recuperate, while protecting yourself from the world outside 🖤 . . But funnily enough, if you've got little ones... its not a relaxing time of rediscovering... its carnage 🤣 to put it lightly... all day every day. Anyone else ⁉️🤣 But, I'm so very aware of how lucky I am to be safe right now, with my family, and my goodness I hope this continues. I know it wont for many and this fills me with great sadness 🖤 . . We've been self isolating, advised by the nhs 111, for 9 days now. Mr Mitchell has been working incredibly hard from home and I've been trying my best to keep hold of what normality I can for little man. To ensure he is safe, loved and happy every day and that I am strong for him. When he goes to bed, I have my wobbles, especially at the beginning of this week. But the strength I have seen from so many in our country, in our world, has helped so much. We adapt, we carry on 🖤 . . I return to work on Wednesday, as long as I remain symptom free and this worries me a lot. But right now I am so thankful for these two. I'm feeling incredibly lucky to have them in my life. I'm holding them that little bit tighter at the moment, for that little bit longer 🖤 . . How have you found staying at home with your little ones ❓ . . Photo from our holiday in February. So much has changed, in such a short time. Let's hope it changes again soon 🖤 . . #isolation #selfisolation #selfisolate #covid19 #coronavirus #toddleractivities #toddleractivitiesathome #eyfsactivities #familtyisolation #stayathome #stayhomesavelives #stayhomestaysafe #thismorning #mumlifebelike #mummyblogger #toddlerdays #rawmotherhood #wildandbravelittles #littlepiecesofchildhood #snaphappybritmums #makingmemories #thingsiwanttoremember #togetherapart #honestmotherhood #mumssupportingmums #toddlermomlife #documentingmotherhood #dailymamamoment #ig_motherhood #rememberingthesedays

🖤 I S O L A T I O N 🖤 . . For those of you who dont know, myself, little man and Mr Mitchell have had to self isolate for 2 weeks 😔 . . Unfortunately Thomas had a temperature and a cough that was quite persistent. It was bad enough to wake him several times in the night and cause him to throw up because of it. Now we're fully aware it’s probably just a cold or a virus that is typical for this time of year. However, based on advice from the nhs 111 website, due to his age, we ended up calling 111. They have said we need to isolate ourselves for 14 days 😔 . . Yesterday, day one, was full of worry. Does my little boy have corona virus? Will he get worse? Will we catch this? Has he passed it onto his Nanny? and then other worries such as if this isnt Corona, when we come out of isolation we may then still get it and have to start this all over again! 😔 what will I do about work? How will we pay our bills? How will I entertain a 15 month old for 14 days at home while Mr Mitchell works upstairs! 🖤 . . However, today I'm trying to take action on those worries and move forward. I built the slide I've been meaning to put together and made sure I took a break during little mans nap. There is so much going on right now, for everyone around the world. Its absolutely crazy! 🖤 . . This photo was taken at the end of last month when I was lucky enough to be on holiday in Lanzarote 🖤 I'm feeling very blessed that we had that time away together, creating memories. Before this all happened 🖤 . . Anyone else out there isolated ❓ How are you feeling ❓ . . Any activities for a 15 month old will be greatly appreciated ⁉️ . . Stay Safe 🖤 . . #isolation #selfisolation #selfisolate #covid19 #coronavirus #toddleractivities #toddleractivitiesathome #eyfsactivities #familtyisolation #stayathome #thismorning #mumlifebelike #mummyblogger #toddlerdays #rawmotherhood #wildandbravelittles #littlepiecesofchildhood #snaphappybritmums #makingmemories #thingsiwanttoremember #togetherapart #honestmotherhood #mumssupportingmums #toddlermomlife #documentingmotherhood #dailymamamoment #ig_motherhood

⛱ Throwback to one of little man's first proper ice creams on holiday. Safe to say he enjoyed his holiday treat! ⛱ . . #firsticecream #familyholiday #holidayblues #childhoodmemories #familyadventures #momentstoremember #travellingwithkids #travelfam #holidaytime #holidaywithbaby #holidaywithkids #travellingwithbaby #makingthemostofeveryday #spendingtimetogether #thismorning #hotmessmama #thismumlikesig #mumlifebelike #mummyblogger #toddlerdays #rawmotherhood #wildandbravelittles #littlepiecesofchildhood #snaphappybritmums #makingmemories #thingsiwanttoremember #holidayinspiration #thismumlikesig #familyvacay #familyselfie

⛱ If we could all see the world through the eyes of a child, we would see the magic in everything ⛱ . . Little man smiled so much during our week away to Lanzarote. Its amazing to almost see the world again, but through the eyes of a child (if that makes any sense❓). There is just so many new things to see and try⛱ . . Initially, he wasn't a fan of the beach! 🙈 he wouldn't put his feet down on the sand and he wasn't confident without myself or his Daddy close by. It was amazing to see how quickly he grew in confidence and by the end he was loving scooping the sand into his bucket and chucking it over himself... and us. He even had a mouthful at one point! 🙈 of course ⛱ . . He's changed so much over the last week in many ways. His walking has come along immensely (I think the warmer weather provided more opportunities) he's saying more and he just seems more confident in himself ⛱ . . He wont remember this holiday, what he's done, what he's seen. But it's defintly not wasted, far from it. He will remember the feeling that it gave him and the precious time spent with his mummy, daddy and grandparents will stay with him as he ck continues to grow. I know it will stay with me ♥️⛱ . . What are your favourite holiday memories ❓ . . #familyholiday #holidayblues #childhoodmemories #familyadventures #momentstoremember #travellingwithkids #travelfam #holidaytime #holidaywithbaby #holidaywithkids #travellingwithbaby #makingthemostofeveryday #spendingtimetogether #thismorning #hotmessmama #xtagmum #thismumlikesig #mumlifebelike #mummyblogger #toddlerdays #rawmotherhood #wildandbravelittles #littlepiecesofchildhood #snaphappybritmums #makingmemories #thingsiwanttoremember #holidayinspiration #thismumlikesig #familyvacay #familyselfie

⛱ H O L I D A Y S & H E A L T H ⛱ We're back from a much needed holiday! We've been sunning ourselves over in Lanzarote with Mr Mitchell's parents, and it was just the break we all needed. The week started with a rocky start (overnight delay due to the sandstorm, so we lost a day) but the rest of the week made up for it! ☀️ . . I was throughly exhausted with little mans sleeping and feeling rough myself before we left. So having some quality family time and the extra pairs of hands has made all the difference. I also had a phone call while away with my blood results, very low iron, anemia. So I'm off to the doctors again next week to put a plan in place to get on top of things! ☀️ . . Back to reality now! But I am honestly feeling so much better for it. I hope your ready for some holiday spam this week ❓ Excited to get back into Instagram again ♥️ . . #familyholiday #holidayblues #feelingrefreshed #familyadventures #wellneededrest #travellingwithkids #travelfam #holidaytime #holidaywithbaby #holidaywithkids #travellingwithbaby #makingthemostofeveryday #spendingtimetogether #thismorning #hotmessmama #thismumlikesig #mumlifebelike #mummyblogger #toddlerdays #rawmotherhood #wildandbravelittles #littlepiecesofchildhood #snaphappybritmums #makingmemories #thingsiwanttoremember #holidayinspiration #lanzarote #familyvacay #familyselfie
