So much has changed

s

Hi lovelies,

Happy new year! Although I do feel like I’m a little too late to be saying that really.

It has been a very, very long time since I have done this whole blogging thing, but as its a new year I finally feel like the time is right. On my last post (which was a long time ago) I was telling you all about my beautiful daughter Delilah who was 10 months old at the time and who is now Two and a half (where did that time go???) and after that post my life got slightly hectic, not only was I still quite a new mum but I was also very close to getting married to the lovely (if slightly sarcastic) Ben, which happened just before Delilah’ first birthday on June 30th 2016 which you may remember being a very special date for the two of us as it would have been Jaime’s first birthday whom I had a miscarriage with shortly before getting pregnant with Delilah and it felt a very right way for us to celebrate him and that day forever more.

So I am now a married woman (which still makes me laugh sometimes when I think of it because surely I’m still 15 no?) and shortly after we got married we found out that we where lucky enough to be expecting again which after another miscarriage a few months before the wedding was lovely, exciting if ever so nerve wracking news. And because I had Delilah early at 24 week’s we also had that worry on our shoulders.

But thankfully even though we had a lot of scares along the way and I was in labour for a ridicules amount of time somehow she held on and  our second daughter  Arabella Olive Blossom Dawson was born at an Amazing (for us anyway) 36 weeks and we got to take her home the next day (we also had to take her back in because of a bit of jaundice but still that was only for another day) so nothing like Delilah’s start for life.

And that was way back in April so now I am sat here writing this with a two and a half year old and a nine month old not quite wanting to admit that it’s bedtime (joy)

I started this blog four or five year’s ago (I can still blame baby brain for not remembering that right?) and my life has changed so very much in that time, but in 2018 I want to start documenting what it’s like now and getting back into writing because I’ve missed it and as I’m sure any other parents out there will agree although being a parent is amazing and lovely, its still bloody hard work at times so it’s nice to be doing something for myself again too.

(all going to plan) I’m hoping to be writing about 2 posts a week on a Monday and a Thursday, so do pop back and have a little peek (and maybe moan at me if I haven’t stuck to that routine)

So I hope to be hearing from you all very soon but for now,

Thanks for reading

Love Benita
