Never Missing A Moment

Toddler year

The last time I updated this blog was back in June 2014, and let me tell you a lot has changed since then. I changed my life style, lost over 2st 7lb, found a new career, started to grow our family, had a few set backs, watched my little man grow from a baby into a little boy, started a fitness plan and then life changed again when we were blessed with another pregnancy. 

The most surprising of all of those changes has been watching my little boy grow up. He can turn a terrible day into a perfect one by just being there and every day that passes I feel like the luckiest person in the world. Don't get me wrong being a Mum is hard work, every day is a challenge and there will be days where you wish you could hide away and cry but no matter what, even on those really difficult days, there will be moments that make you smile uncontrolably and make you feel so proud to be that little person's Mum. 

Now a year is a pretty long time to cover in one post but I wanted to make a start as I relaised just how much I was missing out on by not blogging. I'm about to embark on another huge life change as we welcome our second little boy into our family in April and I want to remember every second. For me blogging encourages me to capture those specical moments, whether it be a family day out or a first smile, each moment equally as incredible. It encourages me to make the most out of life and to treasure every moment. I'm currently enjoying my first week of a 14 month maternity leave and I don't want to waste a second of it, so here I am, documenting those 14 months (at least) and along the way letting you in on the past year of memories.

Easter Sunday Goodies

GrazingPages Easter Goodies
Easter seems so far away now but I thought I'd still share with you guys the few goodies we received. Now Easter to us isn't about eating tons of chocolate or sharing lavish gifts but more about spending quality time with the people you love. As I mentioned in my previous post, where I show you just how super cute my son is haha, we have Sunday lunch at my parents house. My Mum treated Myles to a cute little egg cup in the shape of a chicken. It may be a fair few years until he can use it but I still love it and it's already taken pride place in his bedroom.

Every year my Nanna always makes Easter Bonnets, which are basically a digestive buiscuit topped off with a marshmellow and dipped in icing. Yum-my. I forget about these every year but once they get handed to me I do a little giddy dance. She even made Myles his very own one, and since I'm breastfeeding once I eat it he gets to try it too, so win/win really.

Other than that Myles received some cute socks from both his  Auntie and my Nanna. You can never have enough socks! And Mike and I received an Easter egg to share, which obviously is long gone now. I don't know what it is about Easter Eggs but they have got to contain the best chocolate ever. It's a good job they aren't sold all year long or I would definitely look like one.
It wasn't until the day that I realised that I hadn't bought Myles anything for Easter, not even a little bunny, but I'm sure he still knows that I love him and I doubt he'll hold it againts me. Fingers Crossed. haha.
