This was a relatively easy process and even a beginner like me managed to complete it without much...

Paper Dolls by Julia Donaldson
.
.
.
.
We printed our paper dolls today and put them in the window, we are going to include our "book work" in our homeschool work..
.
.
.
.
Our front window is our homeschool display board. The children love putting their work on display and it's bright for any passers by to see.
.
.
.
.
.
Let me know what's in your window? Have you seen our window?
.
.
.
.
We plan on changing our book/window weekly so watch out for updates..
.
.
.
.

#homeschoolwindow is the tag so if you fancy joining in with your window tag us and we will share too

It's the little things that make you remember someone, when you least expect it.
.
.
.
.
I was in @fullandplentyfarmshop to get carrots (which I forgot)
.
.
.
.
.
The rhubarb caught my eye because of the way it was tied together with "blue twine"
.
.
.
.
My granddad pops grew rhubarb and tied it together the exact same way. He tied everything together with "blue twine" from stable doors to his sports coat when it lost a button..
.
.
.
.
.
I've only ever seen it with elastic bands around the bunch.
.
.
.
.
.
Something tells me pops was close by today as my eldest was talking about him this morning and then this.
.
.
.
It's nice to get signs our loved ones are near.
.
.
.
.
Have you gotten signs or do you thinks it's all a bit mad? I'd love to know 🙂

Flipping great fun here this evening for the pancakes.
.
.
.
.
.
Eldest child wanted pancakes for every single meal today, breakfast, school lunch, after school lunch and dinner..
.
.
.
.
Youngest child had enough after breakfast, forced himself at dinner just because he didn't want to miss out. *edited to add, he did have pasta for dinner*
.
.
.
.
We are spoiled now with pancakes really, when I was small we only had pancakes on pancake Tuesday and never ever during the year. We would regularly have them here as I find them great for teaching the children about baking. The know the ingredients and we make it by eye so they are learning the consistency by adding more of each ingredient..
.
.
.
.
.
.
Of course Daddy stole the show flipping the pancakes.

Never seem to catch this boy in action!!
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
He was busy playing cars in the kitchen yesterday while I was listening to his sisters reading..
.
.
.
.
.
Then we hear a scratching noise..... The conversation went like this.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Me:what you doing R?
R: getting the carrots ready for you!
Me: oh OK thanks (didn't plan on having carrots obvs in my head)
R: I did 1,2,3,4 one each for us we need vegetables!
Me: oh can I get a quick video of you peeling?
R: NO I DID 4 WE DON'T NEED ANYMORE!.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Im fairness one each is enough and why would you waste your time peeling more then you need just for your Mam's instagram page.
.
.
.
.
.
Need to work on my grid and bribe my model a bit better 😊

This is an interesting way to end the week
.
.
.
.
. . .

It makes your focus for the week ahead more mindful.
.
.
.
. .
Im a list lady! I have lists for lists and rarely successfully archive all the tasks on my list on any given day or week, this makes me so anxious and feel like I'm a failure. I think by looking at what I avoided for the week may help me focus on this week.
.
.
.
.
.
.

My plan is to complete the most avoided and urgent tasks tommrrow so then I can relax.
.
.
. .
.
.
.
.
.
How do you end/start your week? I'd love to know.

This is one of my little farmers, he and his sister help out on the allotment watering and weeding.

I've just published a post on growing carrots and how it is so easy to do. Honesty try it next year and let me know how you get on. 🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕 Honestly you feel awful wasting any part of the carrot especially when you've grown it yourself.

I am the Rainbow Rentals New Ross Host.

Re-use is the best thing we can do for the environment, so we've come up with as many options as we can for you to borrow from us, rather than buy single-use items! we've started Rainbow Rentals - an initiative to put a reusable party kit into every locality, so that borrowing and reusing - not buying and disposing - become the new normal for kids' parties! Here's where they're all based...get in touch to donate reusable partyware or to borrow a kit!
Please get in touch if you would like to donate any loose/spare plastic cups/plates/cutlery.

Please spread the word and we can get a reusable party kit available in New Ross.

Was delighted to recieve these from the postman today.
There are 3 available in the local area if anyone would like them let me know ;)
The plan is to stick to a shopping budget, reduce waste and save some money. There are great tips for budgeting over at @mrssmartmoneyhq. So pop over there for some hard core savings I'm only a newbie.
@tree_hugging_mama also is brilliant tips on saving money and reducing waste.
If you make any changes or notice a reduction on your waste let me know ;)

We had so much fun today splashing in muddy water.
Just the two of us, the eldest lady was "chilling". Sometimes I feel I'm failing at motherhood. Most times to be fair. There is so much to get right or so we are lead to believe, today we just splashed and had fun that cost nothing but we laughed so much that it was priceless.
This week marks the 6 month anniversary of my beautiful best friend-some days are easier than others there are so many things I have went to tell her only to be punched in the stomach by the realisation that she's gone.
Today my red painted toenails were a reminder and I went to send her the pic of me and the boy, instead of dwelling on the loss we laughed and joked. My friend would love the fun.
I miss you Maureen, but we make fun in your memory .

#mumtribeireland I started walking early!!! Delighted with my few mins to myself.
Really going to try do this at least 5 times in the week realistically.

New aim is carve out some pockets of time, after listening to @delving_within over on @snaphappymammy page. This is some thing I'm ready to focus on. .

3 weeks in 7.5lbs down I'm delighted with life. .
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
I know everyone is all about #bodypositivity lately, and so am I. Really just becaue I'm loosing weight, that doesn't make me any less than those who choose not too.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
I love my body my babies lived in there for 9 months each( there abouts they were evicted at 8)and I'm super greatful for that.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
What I don't love is all the junk I've put in there. This journey is about becoming healthier and happier in my own skin.
I want my children to grow up seeing a mam that is happy and possitive and for me thats getting fitter and healthier. .
.
.
.
There is so much support available to people they just need to reach out.

This is the sun set on my last day of unhealthy eating.

I rejoined #slimmingworldireland.
I feel like I'm in a healthier headspace.

I going to plan my meals on a weekly basis and use my #syns in my meals and not save them up for a #treatplate every evening .
I'm going to cut back on the junk in the house too.
So watch this space, weigh day is Tuesday Evening 7.30.
Please share any hints or tips.....
