Precious Moments

Welcome to my Precious Moments of January.

 Now we are obviously into February but at the end of each month i will be sharing with you some precious moments and memories that i have created with Martha, my loved ones and friends throughout that month.

My time with Martha is shared with her Dad, he has her every other weekend and during the week, so we actually co parent her. He is a good Dad and she loves being with him, when he has her it does enable me to work some longer hours and as a single Mummy this helps me out alot.

Do not get me wrong, my heart literally is breaking whenever she is not with me, but i know it is good for Martha to be with her Dad sometimes.

 Anyway......i've gone off on a tangent.... i tend to do that alot.

Okay so that's painted a little picture of why my time with Martha is so precious. Our time with any of our children whether we have 1, 2, 3 or however many more, time is precious. It goes way to quick and before we know it, they have grown and we look back over another year and think, "how the hell did that happen !"

So these posts each month will just be filled with lovely things we have got up to and lots of lovely photos. I am abit addicted to taking photos.

Some of them were taken on my phone so sorry if the quality isn't great.

Christmas- I had the best Christmas this year, i spent it with all the people who mean so much to me, especially this little one. I love this photo, its actually my screen saver on my phone at the moment, i love it mainly because she looks so grown up, a proper little girl. She was so happy with her pressies, one of her main ones being this DS. We were about to go over to my Brothers for Boxing day. I literally enjoyed every second of the holidays.

The photo below just makes me smile. Family, i love mine so much. Dad and Chris are missing from this, Chris hates having his photo taken and my dad was on my laptop!!

Grandad turns 96!- Wow, yep 96! Thats amazing isn't it. And he is doing so well for it. What do you get a 96 year old on their birthday??? A bin. He wanted a new bin, one with a fancy pop up lid, so that's what i got him, oh and a balloon and baked him a cake. So he was happy.

Fun in the Snow- We had so much fun in the snow, it literally lasted a morning but we got out in it and even managed to build a snowman!

Eating out- We have eaten out quite abit this month.....ooooops! There goes healthy eating in January. But we have had quite a few birthdays to celebrate. And we did a shopping trip with my Brother and Hayley, and you cant go on a shopping trip without going to TGI's!! Also at the weekend we went out for a yummy pub lunch for Grandads birthday and Hayleys which is this coming week. 

I love eating out. It is one of my most favourite things to do.

Star Wars- Now i know this photo is way to dark and fuzzy, but it makes me giggle so much. Just look at her. I don't particularly like Star Wars at all. But Martha started watching the films a couple of weeks ago and was engrossed. So we decided to take her to see the film at the weekend. I was so proud of her she sat so still the whole time it was on, on my lap for most of it, but still she was absolutely taken with it.

 Weekend Walks- As a family we love walking, we love being at one with the country side. And Martha loves walking to, she has always been a fan of going on walks and exploring ever since she was a toddler. Last weekend when it was so sunny but so windy we went on a little walk, just me and her. I love this photo, i love the way she is looking at me. You cant beat a good walk to blow the cobwebs away. 

Thanks for reading guys
