Not a major success, more like a getting through the week and surviving type success.
I had a fab time in London and it was so so good to catch up with friends, talk about non mum things and be "me" again even if it was just for a day or so. Then it was back to mum life with a bang. Ismay has been somewhat challenging this last week and has developed what I have decided to call a new war cry....it's a kind of constant droning which tends to come when unhappy! Bless her. I can't decide if it is teething or the after effects of MMR but I am definitely hoping for better this week. Or is this just the transition to toddler-dom?! My trip to London already seems like a distant memory. Ha!
Shopping wise London was darn tasty. I got the awesome shirt and floral dungarees from M&S (thanks for the help lovely Linzi) and some shiny shoes. I also fell in love with Weekday body elastic skinny jeans. I can't breathe in them which must mean they are excellent at sucking everything in. Bravo Weekday. Ooh and I got my nose pierced. I love it. And yes it did hurt but not as much as child birth and I now compare all painful things to that!
This week the mister is off to Nashville (my wannabe spiritual home so I am insanely jealous) so Ismay and I are heading back to Scotland (totes the same as Nashville!) for a week. I have never been away with Ismay for a week and it appears we will need quite a lot of things. Oh my. I can tell it will be lists a-go-go for the next few days.
Here are a few photos from Ismay was not war crying and we were both jolly;)
