Whinging, Fitbit and First Hair Cuts #littleloves

Another week has just flown by! To be honest, I'm quite glad that it did as I was dreading this week. My oldest was back at school (so the hideous school run commenced) and my husband was back to work (and I knew I'd be missing him). The week did go by quickly and without too much drama but I'm welcoming the weekend with open arms (fingers crossed to a lie in!).

Read
This week I started another series that my mum recommended to me. The book is called One for the Money by Janet Evanovich. I started and finished it in the space of a week! It was good and although a mystery book there were some real laugh out loud parts. I have started the second book in this series now and can't wait to see how things go for the main character, Stephanie Plum!


Watched
In addition to my usual Sunday night favourites (Call the Midwife and Mr. Selfridge) I have begun watching Channel 4's Indian Summers and absolutely adore it! It is so colourful and makes me wish I was some place a little warmer to be honest! The acting is fab and the atmosphere is perfect. Glad to have another great show (only wish it was on mid week as the rest of the week is pretty weak as far as good TV shows).


Heard
I have heard so much whinging this week from my boys. They shout, they cry, they whinge, they growl and I really feel like I can't hear much more of it. Luckily the weekend is upon us so Daddy can help with the never ending whinge fest!
I know, they look like little angels...but they do know how to whinge!

Made
This week we made a lovely roasted butternut squash soup and we made Let's Talk Mommy's Courgette Oatmeal cookies. Unfortunately, neither lasted long in our house and the boys kept asking for more so I foresee some more baking in our future!


Worn
My beloved Fitbit! I have had to take a few months off from wearing it when I didn't feel well as I figured there wasn't much point. After all, I knew I wasn't moving much never mind clocking up 10,000 steps a day. But now I've got it back on and I'm back to working out. I have also added friends to my account which is unbelievably motivating! Yes, I guess I do have a competitive streak! ;)


And Lastly...
We finally gave Dylan his first ever hair cut (at 2 and a half years old!). He looks completely different now, no more baby! I also realised that I am by no means a hairdresser, so I stopped while I was ahead and left a bit so that the real professionals could tame his lovely curls. :)

Have a lovely weekend and see you back next week!

    The first haircut is hard isn't it -especially when there are little curls that you know aren't coming back! I'm quite starting to fancy one of these fitbits, I need some motivation! Have a great weekend Lauryn #littleloves

    Oh the curls! So cute :-) Yes, you would love a fitbit it is very motivational. First you find you compete with yourself to get in more steps then when you add friends to your account you feel like you need to do as much as them! It's fun :-) Have a good one and thanks for stopping by! #littleloves

      Ah yes, the sleep mode is interesting. I used it at first to prove to my husband that I was actually having very disturbed sleeps. He sleeps like a log and never hears the children (how could they possibly have been up all night? He would say!!). Thanks for stopping by! :-)

      Thanks Jenna! Having two boys is sooo much fun but also a little crazy! I don't remember ever wrestling, climbing and jumping around as much as my boys do. It definitely keeps me on my toes! :-)

    Are fitbits like a pedometer? First haircuts are hard for us moms aren't they? I have a locket with all our first curls in them. Hope you have a great week x #littleloves

      Hi Louisa, yes, fitbits are like pedometers but you can track your sleep too! Quite addictive :-) I have saved little bits of hair from both my boys but it is hard to see them growing up so fast! Thanks for stopping by :-) #littleloves

    Love the idea of your Fitbit! I'm new to formal exercise but have always lead an active life - can see how this would be really motivating, especially when compared to friends! Thanks for sharing your #littleloves

      Hi Judith, fitbits are totally motivating. It is nice to see the number of steps climb through out the day...satisfying! Thank you for popping over :-) #littleloves
