ALL POSTS BY: Stacey

I’m Stacey, a bookworm (or should that be dragon?!) from a quaint hamlet on the outskirts of Lincolnshire. In my late 30s, I’m a devoted mum to two wonderful boys who are both autistic—a unique aspect that makes them different, not less. I also share my home with my husband and Barney, my lovable Frenchie x Beagle.

Baby shower

Yesterday was my baby shower! I had been looking forward to it for ages, I love having something to plan and it definitely passed the time over the last couple of weeks while waiting for Baby G’s imminent arrival. Though, I thought I was organised but I wasn’t as much as I thought! Although this was partly due to me being achy (after falling last week – will talk about that in the next post) and tired, and not really wanting to do much as that in turn was making me tired too. Especially with the amount of cake I …

35 weeks

Sunday saw me hitting 35 weeks, it’s getting ever so close now but still can’t believe that I will have an actual baby in my arms in a few weeks!  Not much to report since my last post I’m afraid, except that I’ve been getting ready for my baby shower which is looming on Saturday! Also for my Cake A Difference sale for Bliss which I hope is going to go down well. One of the ladies on the forum I use raised £70 today at their sale, which is absolutely fantastic!  Though, I finally got my Mum-To-Be Bounty pack. …

34 weeks and a midwife appointment

Oh dear, I’ve really neglected you since Sunday… I’ve been ill with a horrible cold/cough/sore throat but that’s no excuse really, just been too tired to do much of anything as it’s been wearing me down… Anyway, have now passed the 34 week mark!  We had our 34 week appointment on Tuesday where we went over my birth plan, I mean wishes/options, as we all know it probably won’t go to plan! I will cover that in my next post! As for the other stuff, my sample was fine, blood pressure was fine, and bump was measuring right on ‘target’ this week. Good strong …

Kate On Thin Ice is looking for 90 bloggers to write 90 words about an important woman in their life and join in her blog hop. You can link up here. My mother in law. One of the most inspirational women in my life. Diagnosed with breast cancer in 2007, the year before our wedding. A huge shock, but determined to beat the horrible illness that affects many other women. Chemotherapy, hair loss, and a mastectomy later, she came through the other side. She is now in remission but has to have check ups every now & then. A true fighter. A fighter who …

Showering a baby with cakes

No, I’m not actually going to be showering my baby with cakes, just thought I would try and get your attention! (Although I’m sure he would smell very yummy afterwards! Teehee!)  What I actually mean is, I’m currently planning my baby shower, just two weeks to go now and I’m very excited! Fun games are planned, with prizes for the winners; nibbles and cake will also be involved! A perfect girly night in – chit chat, cake and babies! And that’s where the cake part comes in… I’m going to be making & selling cakes for the Cake A Difference charity event …
