I Said Yes To The Dress!

1 Year 9 Months until the wedding... And I said yes to the dress!!

It was so spontaneous too. My sister and I were going to Aldi when we came across a little bridal boutique. We thought it was a warehouse but when we stepped inside it was a beautiful bridal shop. The lovely assistant Jess said we were free to look around, so we made a start. Within minutes I was wowed by some beautiful dresses. But I saw one and it reduced me to tears. There were also 2 other dresses I really loved too. So I made a note of the 3 dresses and vowed to make an appointment to go back and try them on.

I went back the next day 😂
I had told my mum about the dresses and she said she wanted to see them. We returned to the shop and I was surprised to see my dad had come too! Jess was very surprised to see me back within 24 hours and managed to do me a same day fitting. How exciting!

I filled out a form which asked details about the wedding and then I got to try the dresses on. The first dress was lovely, but I knew it wasn't The One. The second dress I put on fit perfectly! And this wasn't the dress that reduced me to tears the previous day. But I felt perfect in it! And when my parents and sister saw me, their reactions was exactly what I wanted. However I still had to try on the dress I'd fallen in love with. But when I tried it on, I knew it wasn't the dress for me.

I stepped back into the second dress and it just confirmed what I already knew. This was my dress. And I knew nothing would come close to it.

The lovely Jess sorted a payment plan for me and I will have ,y beautiful dress by Christmas this year! I will have to hide it my parents house as OJ will want a sneak peak haha.

It's exciting to know the next time I'm in the dress, I'll be becoming OJ's wife!

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-
