Lilly's Easter Basket 2016

-
I cannot believe that I am preparing Lilly's Easter basket already. This year is seriously flying by. 

This year it's slighly different, we have a few craft bits and some other little bits too. I also added a few little decorations with little chicks. 


I always try to layout the basket so Lilly can see exactly what items she has in there. We will give the basket to her on Easter Sunday.


Firstly we have the chocolate bits. Her Easter egg this year is the Kinder Suprise egg with disney princesses in. Also my mum and Dad brought her a bag of mini chocolate eggs a while back for her basket and have kept them back for her basket. I also picked Lilly up a new cup for Spring, Summer, this was from poundland and bas such a cute design on it.


The crafts that are in her basket either came from The Works or PoundLand. She has some egg shaped foam shapes, and an egg decorating kit with paints, stickers and other bits too. These were both from The Works, I also brought her an Easter Bonet to decorate too. The last thing is a ceramic egg to paint which my Dad picked up from PoundLand a few weeks back. 


Lastly are a few novelty bits, my Mum and Dad picked her up a wobbly head solar powered chick, this is super cute and will have a home in her window. We also have the knitted chick and the fabric egg which come out every year.

I really hope she loves her basket and can't wait to do the crafts with her. We will also be making Easter biscuits and chocolate nests too.

    I love the look of her basket we just did books, a DVD and a cuddly toy for Blake. I may add a bit of chocolate but he has only recently started to like eating it. I'll definitely be adding craft things next year.

    You got some great bits. I already put together Rosalie's basket but I might go back and grab the egg decorating kit from pound land as I think she will enjoy that xx

    Such a cute little basket. I've got some bunny ears from last year and a book with bunnies in. I think that's going to be my sad offering this year.

    I have never made an Easter basket, I like the idea of them but I think Emma is a bit too old for them now. This looks really cute.xx

BHP Show 2016 • Lydden Hill

-

The last time I visited the BHP show I was pregnant with Lil's and it was only a one day event. This year I got to take my baby back to see it for herself and enjoy two days there instead, including a COLD night of camping.  The BHP show is (I believe) a yearly event which takes place at Lydden Hill Race Circuit. This is about 1 hour and a half drive from our house so not too far for us to go, Lilly was as good as gold travelling both there and back, but then again she slept the whole way back.  The show wasn't as good as back in 2012 due to the lack of demo's but the Drift Allstars team were amazing and made Lilly scream with joy after a silly 5 minutes of being scared.  On the Sunday we took a look around the pits, that's a big reason why we like Lydden hill is because of the open pits. There were so many nice cars both drift cars and track day cars too. Lilly was very excited especially aboutt the purple one pictured below.  There was a giant

The importance of a smear test

Last month I got my first 'invitation' to have the cervical cancer screening, or smear test as it is commonly known. I was a little surprised as I am on 24 but phoned up straight away to book an appointment.  To me this is so inportant as it could potentially save your life. The test takes about 5 minutes, and even though it's unpleasent, in my eyes it's necessary. I am now in tge waiting period for my letrer to say weather or not I am clear of abnormal cells. It can take up to 21 days for the letter after your appointment and you will hear either way.  The nurse that I had was so calming she showed the equipment and explained exactly what she was going to do. She could tell I was nervous but she kept re-assuring me and just telling me to breath and relax. I am so relieved that it is done and hope that everything is ok. But I just wanted to write this for everyone who has had the invite. Come on ladies Take it! Book an appointment and have th

Being a carer for my parents

Both my parents have mobility issues and are bithnow in wheelchairs. Since I can remember my Mum has been in a wheelchair due to have a very worn hip joint which she was born with.  When I was in year 9 my Dad's back started to hurt and progressivly got worse to the point where he struggled to get out of bed. I am now classed as a carer to my mum which is important for me, my mum is very stubborn and sometime I have to have a little nag to get her to do things. I don't see my parents in any other way than just my parents, if that makes sense. My Mum is an amazing person who makss me proud every day. Due her lack of mobility she also has other health problems which she can control with tablets and lifestyle changes.  My Dad is still constantly on the go with his veterans and the local carnival which he does every year using his mobility scooter as his base for his structure. He does feel it after he compeltes things but I think it gives him motivation to
