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 perfect😍❤️ 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 date😪😥) 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😃

Remember: You Are A Couple As Well As Parents

At the beginning of October, James and I had a weekend away in Manchester to celebrate our 3rd anniversary. It was so lovely to have some quality time together. We shopped, went out to eat and even played Junkyard Golf! If you have never been, I highly recommend you do as it's a great laugh. And it was whilst we was away that I realised the last time me and James had spent a night away together was 18 months ago when Mayarna was 1 month old. That's a very long time and it got me thinking, when you become parents, you become so wrapped up in parenthood that you start to neglect time as a couple. Yes, your responsibilities change. But that doesn't mean you can't keep the spark going in your relationship. You don't have to do anything expensive or fancy. Something as simple as going out for a meal, going to the cinema or going for a drink. Just being with your partner, having adult conversation and keeping that spark is great for your relationship. -

New Home, New Life

Moving home is never easy and especially when you have a 4 month old baby in tow. After spending the last few weeks looking for our new home,we were split between the final two. We eventually decided on the house we liked. We made an application to the estate agents and when we were approved, I felt ecstatic! The day came for the move and I had butterflies in my stomach and questions rolling in my head such as “will may may settle here?” “is it going to be too far to get to work? “ But I knew that this was for the best. Me, mics and her parents started packing. On the day, the removal men called us while we was at the estate agents, saying they were outside the house. They were two hours early! So we made our way to the house and quickly helped to finish the last of the packing and stored it into the back of the van. When we got to the house it was a great feeling to unpack our stuff into our new home. It is so refreshing to know now that May-May has more space to play and a

New Year, New Mum

MummyBou is back! Happy New Year everyone! Surely it's time to stop saying that now right? It's been a while since I blogged but I had to take a break, not only from my blog but from my social media too. Sometimes we have to take a break, refresh, re-evaluate our situations and come back stronger. See where changes can be made, what you need to stop doing and what you can do to improve your situation. That's what I did. I went on holiday with my family and had a well deserved 10 day break. When I got back, I sat down with OJ and brainstormed about our future; business and personal. We celebrated our first Christmas as a family and wedding plans are in full effect. May-May's development has been beautiful to watch. She hates sand, has 2 teeth and loves to dance. But I will explain all this in upcoming blogs. I will be blogging every 2 weeks, so ensure to keep an eye out on my Instagram and Facebook . -x- Michaela -x-
