The Journey Begins!

Everyone has a reason why they blog and here is mine.

My goals in life are:
  • Get married and have another baby 
  • Gain a degree in Events Management
  • Have my own Events business
  • Buy a house
  • Be financially comfortable
I have planned and executed a few event's successfully but I want to have my own company. But doing this comes from experience. To gain experience I need to work as a manager. This includes having a degree. So I found a distant learning course that allows me to gain my Diploma in Business. Once I gain my Diploma, I can apply for university and get my degree. Woohoo!🎉🎉

So I had my plan. Then I found out I was pregnant. Oh the excitement was unreal! I have always wanted to be a mum and it was finally happening! But then I panicked😕 How do I study with a baby? I went online to see if there were any student mum bloggers out there. I read a few but thought no point worrying until princess got here.

5 months later my wonderful partner OJ proposed to me in a beautiful courtyard in Benidorm, Spain. It was so perfectđŸ˜â€ïž Now I had a wedding to plan and a degree to achieve. And princess was due in just over 3 months. But, as always, OJ calmed me down and said he would support me.

March came and princess was born (6 long days after her due dateđŸ˜ȘđŸ˜„) I was given 2 months off from studying and thought that would be enough.

HOW WRONG WAS I?!

Now, don't get me wrong, May-May is a good baby. But breastfeeding  is so demanding! Plus she's a greedy baby. So between feeding, changing nappies, trying to keep May-May entertained, cooking, cleaning and remembering to eat,I was expected to study!

Ok so clearly I needed an escape. I love to write but a diary wasn't satisfying. Why not write a blog. But would anyone read it? Would I be good enough? Well best to just give it a shot. I noticed the more content the better. So to mix it up, I will blog about being a mum, student, bride to be and any travelling we do.

I hope you all enjoy my journey! I will be adding pictures sporadically but why not follow me on Instagram @themummybouchronicles to see my journey in pictures and connect. And if you have any mummy tips, please do share with me! 

Thanks for reading😃

Daddy and Daughters First Carnival

I heard that Mics cousin Sasha was planning to put together a band for Huddersfield Carnival called Majestic Mas a few months ago. So I asked if I could join as Mics and May May were going to perform already. I had never played at a carnival before and I have always wanted to perform.  So Sasha and her family started to create the costumes for us, working tirelessly to make sure everything was perfect. The theme for this was Black Panther Children of T’Challa. I was immediately sold with this as I’ve always been a massive fan of comic book superheroes and this felt natural for me.  So it came to the week of the carnival and I was feeling so nervous about playing in front of such big crowds. But I didnt want to let Sasha down as I fully support what she was doing. I tried my costume on and it felt amazing on me.  On Friday night before carnival me and my family went to a Glow street party, which is the night before the big day. I  absolutely loved the atmo...

The Proposal To My Fiancé

It all started from a epiphany I had while coming home from work, i just knew in my mind that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with mics. We had only been together for a year and a half and were expecting a baby as well. I was scared she was going to say no as it might have been too soon. So when i got back to mics mums house I told her about my plan to propose. I will never forget how her face changed into shock and excitement. She told me about when she was proposed to and it was around the same time as me and mics. That gave me the confidence to go ahead with buying a ring. When I bought the ring I felt like I wanted to burst with excitement but then I ha d to think how am I going to ask her. I thought of so many elaborate ways to do it. But I knew we were going on holiday to Benidorm for my first time and it felt right to do it there. I brought the ring and I showed it to mics parents and told them of how I wanted to propose and they were both really pleased with the...

5 Month Reflection Of Our Princess

This week our May May officially turned 5 months old and I couldn't be more happier with how her development is going so far. She is so alert these days and has started to notice her hands and feet more often. It has been a massive learning experience for me as this is my first time being a parent but it has all been worthwhile.  I have struggled with nighttime routines with her as this is when she gets more agitated from teething and growing pains. Its hard to see her in distress and i try to give her as much cuddles as possible which sometimes calms her down but over the course of time she has become more playful.  I love it when I enter a room and she gives me the biggest gummy smile. It totally fills my heart up when she does that and it immediately makes everything else minimal. May May has also learnt how to roll over onto her stomach which is a joy to see and how she has the ability to move her body in different positions while laying on her back.  I ...
