York Babymoon

So to celebrate coming up to our final trimester and my gorgeous husband's birthday we took a trip to York for the night. We stayed in a beautiful hotel right next to the York Minster and we went on a lovely boat tour of York which was so romantic and sweet.
It was an all round awesome trip and we saw some lovely things and ate some amazing food...here's a few photos from that weekend!

Wearing matching robes in the hotel
My bump at 26 weeks ^__^


Rob on the boat ride

















So we had an amazing little trip and I bought the most beautiful Beatrix Potter door hanger that says 'Lily's Room' on it and has Jemima Puddleduck sat next to it...its gorgeous and I love love love Beatrix Potter so much.






Anyway, not much of an update but I've been very busy planning my mum's wedding which is this Saturday so I will update with lots of pics and my 28 week bump pic! Very exciting times!

Au Revoir!

Kicks and Smiles

So on Tuesday, I had my 20 week scan at the hospital and they revealed that we are having a baby girl ^_^ which obviously I am very excited about, she will be called Lily Rose Lomas when she pops out hehe.
Straight after the scan, my mum and I couldn't resist but do a bit of shopping and we ended up buying the cutest girly clothing in the world.

I also bought Lily's pram last Friday which will be delivered by Mothercare to my mums house a few weeks before Lily is born. It's a Travel System which means that it comes with a car seat that you can attach to the pram for when the baby is newborn and still use the pram without it.
I really like the pram because its mainly black so it means buying accessories for it is alot easier, it has an adjustable handle so if my mum was pushing it she could have it lower than I would.
It also comes with a rain cover which as you should know, will come in very handy for those wet days.
I am very chuffed (happy) with my purchase as it was only £120 for all of it including free delivery to our house.

We nearly have everything we will need for when Lily is born already as my mum and auntie went a bit mad and bought mountains of clothes, nappies, bath stuff, wipes, etc and my mum also bought a baby bath and a bouncer. We got a moses basket for free and Rob and I have bought the sheets/covers for that and I got a changing bag free from Boots so we are pretty much covered the only things left to get now are a changing mat, breastfeeding tools and some more bibs.

I am really looking forward to being a mum and I know Rob will make an amazing dad, he already talks to Lily every day when he gets home from work and she's started responding to his voice by moving alot more and kicking alot when he talks.

Anyway, I am just chattering on so I will love and leave you for now but no doubt I will be nattering on about Lily in all my posts for the next few months.

Au Revoir!

Likes and Dislikes

My friend Tasha has done one of these about her pregnancy so I thought I would like to write all my likes and dislikes about being pregnant!

Likes
  • Having a big bump that looks cute
  • My boobs getting bigger haha!
  • Feeling baby move inside my tummy
  • Feeling pretty and comfortable in my own skin
  • Talking/singing and reading to my baby
  • Seeing Rob's face light up when he touches the bump
Dislikes
  • Stretch marks covering my belly
  • Not being able to eat peanuts or runny eggs or pate
  • Being uncomfortable when trying to sleep
  • Having to go to the loo more often, including in the middle of the night when Im trying to sleep
  • Tiredness
Im sure there are more things but I can't think right now what they are. I do love being pregnant and I love that I'm going to have a beautiful baby in 20 weeks and I'm sure I'm not the only mum to be that is scared of what the next few months will bring in fact what the next 18 years will bring!

Au Revoir!

Round bellies and Exciting news!

Hi everyone, I'm not going to apologise for being a bad blogger as I do this every post so you already know how sorry I am...
I am going to update when I feel I have something to say about my life/loves etc.

So with that in mind I would like to show you how big I am already and I'm only 17 weeks 4days pregnant.
Taken at 16 weeks (please ignore the washing pile in the kitchen)
I have been in maternity bottoms now for over a month as they're the only bottoms I seem to feel comfortable in.
I love vintage fashion but I cannot find anything cheap that still looks good from the vintage/repro world. If you have any advice please let me know!!

On another note, I had an antenatal appointment yesterday and I got to go to the hospital where I will be having my baby for the first time. I have never seen so many expectant mothers in the same room in all my life and all at different stages of their pregnancy, it was quite a sight!
The maternity wing of the hospital was lovely, all the nurses we're so helpful and talkative and everyone just seemed happy and so nice so I felt very at ease. I went with my mother in law as my husband started a new job on Monday and couldn't come along to this appointment so I thought it would be nice if his mum came as she is unbelievably excited about our baby.
We had a scan first and they confirmed my baby's final due date is the 13th August and the sonographer had a look to make sure that the baby is growing well and then she had a look to see if we could see the sex of the baby, now the sonographer isn't 100% sure and will confirm at my next scan at the end of the month but she thinks......it's a girl!!!!!!
So I'm gunna have a beautiful baby girl which I am so so excited about. I'm obviously trying not to be majorly over excited because it might not be a girl but still.

So here is the latest pic of our baby girl, she yawned on the scan and it was the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life and then she started sucking her thumb, I love her so much already!
17 weeks and 3 days ^__^

After we had the scan I had some blood tests in the main part of the hospital, it was very strange...the hospital is so different from any Ive ever seen before, it looked like an airport departure lounge with the seating, shops, cafes etc and you couldn't even see where the corridors were to get to the actual wards of the hospital, I ended up having to ask directions at the help desk.

On another note, I am so glad to be back home with my mum and dad and all of our family/friends. I feel so much better knowing Ive got such a big support system for our first baby and everyone is so excited to welcome a little one into the world.
I think my mum is the most excited as she's turning the spare room into a nursery for the baby which we're hopefully going to get started very soon because I love to decorate and am very excited to do some nesting.
Anyway, I am rambling on so I'm gunna go watch some TV with my mum and talk about our plans for the nursery.

Au Revoir everyone!

So long, farewell!

Okay so as you may have read, I am currently 15 weeks pregnant with my first ever baby! eeeek so exciting!
As we have alot changing at the moment I haven't been able to update my blog as much as I'd like however, we are moving back to Sheffield, UK to be with our family at this exciting time! We have packed everything up today and we sail on the ferry to Heysham this evening and will drive back to our hometown.

I am going to miss living on the Isle of Man and most of all I'm going to miss my best friend over here Jade Boylan, she has been so lovely to me these past 8 months and made me feel so welcome (plus we have an incredible amount in common and she's a fantastic shopping buddy!)

Jade and I met up on Friday to say our goodbyes and have one last lunch at the Alpine and one last shopping day.
As it's my birthday on 22nd Feb, Jade had bought me some lovely presents which she just so happened to take photos of!
Lovely Gift Bag, perfect pin up!!
Very excited about my new presents!
Gorgeous Presents!!

I want to thank Jade lots and lots for my fantabulous presents, they are beautiful and Jade has made my time on the island very memorable and I'm uber grateful!! 

Will be back to update you within the next couple of weeks once we have settled in back home!
Au Revoir!

Neglect.

I sincerely apologise I have been a very bad blogger recently!
I have been going through alot as we've been having tests and scans and also Im moving back home to Sheffield, UK so we've been trying to get ready for that.
But some pics to show you our growing baby should help you forgive me hehe!



So now I am 13 weeks and 5 glorious days along with my pregnancy and I am being utterly impatient as I want to meet my beautiful baby now!
I will be finding out in March what the sex of the baby is so will update you on that.
And at the moment my blogs will be quite scarce as I mentioned before with us moving home etc so please forgive me and I will update as much as possible over the next few weeks!

Au Revoir!

13 weeks along! Our baby was waving at us

Weddings and hair cuts.

So last weekend I went to my dear friend's Tom and Belinda's wedding.
It was a fabulous day and the day before I had decided to get my hair all cut off and restyled. I havent had my hair cut by a hairdresser since I was about 15 and the only style I had was long so I thought 'Lets go for something completely different'.
There are two reasons I decided on short: a) I'm pregnant and shorter hair is so much more manageable especially when I'm suffering from morning sickness. b) I wanted an actual style because my hair was so boring before and just sort of hung there.
So here are a few pics of me and my lovely husband with our new hairstyles at the wedding.




This is also the first 'outfit post' I have ever done so here goes:
Earrings: Peacocks
Dress: Dorothy Perkins
Shoes: Evans

Apologies and Announcements.

9 weeks!
First of all, I would like to apologise to the people out there that read my humble little blog. I haven't posted much recently and now I can reveal why:

I'm going to be a mummy!
I've been quite ill with morning sickness for a good few weeks now and I've just been way too unwell to post anything and if I'm honest I had to keep myself away to stop me from telling the world because I'm so so excited!

This is my first baby and I am a mix of emotions at the moment: I'm very happy, excited, scared, etc.
If anyone has any advice about pregnancy or motherhood I would very much like to hear it! I know that Brittany at Va-Voom Vintage is also going to be a mummy again and I've been reading her posts which have been very helpful!

I've had some amazing support from my friends and family since we found out and I am very grateful to everybody. I know its going to be hard but my husband and I have been trying for this for 9 months and I could not be any happier than I am right now. My little family is coming together!

Au Revoir!

Holidays are coming

Again, I do apologise for being a very bad blogger but I have been quite busy recently with some personal stuff which I will disclose at a later date for you!

But, as today is the 18th December it means that there is only 1 week until Christmas is here and I am very very excited!! It will be my first christmas where I actually make the whole dinner and lay the table for my family which I am terrified of doing because I have never cooked a turkey before.

How lovely!!
On the upside, my present from my mum came two days ago which I am also very very happy about it is a Brother XL2620 Sewing Machine and it is a beautiful piece of machinery, see for yourself!


I love Christmas, I love going to Midnight Mass on Christmas eve, I love opening presents with the people who mean everything to me, I love the films and tv programmes that cover the entire TV world and I absolutely love when it snows on Christmas day!

Today is actually a snow day over here on the Isle of Man, I've never seen snow like it over here and to be honest I've not encountered snow like it in a long time, our car has actually dissapeared under a thick white blanket. I love snow days where you can stay inside nice and warm and go and make snow angels outside and have proper snowball fights, its like being a child again! Fantastic!

Anyway, Im going to spend the day with my husband in bed watching tv and playing in the snow!

Happy Holidays!!

  • Leave in tin for 5 minutes then turnout and leave to stand on a wire rack.

After baking my lovely cake I then decided to make some Peanut Brittle as a present for my mum for Christmas.

Peanut Brittle

So hope you like the recipes and if you want to send me comments with your versions of these beauties then please feel free to.

Crafty fun times

As I mentioned in my last blog, I have decided to make alot of my Christmas decorations or alter ones that we buy.
My package from Hobby craft didn't arrive until earlier this week so I haven't had much chance to start my decorations. I have so far done a wreath and I plan to do some more on Tuesday and Wednesday when I'm off work.
I am also buying my Christmas tree on Tuesday and I'm really excited as it's very pretty already and as I'm going for a silver and gold theme I need to spray the green baubles I already have to match my colour scheme.

In other news, last night I accompanied my friend Jade  to the Festival of Trees at the Isle of Man airport where she had made a fantastic Lego tree for the festival on behalf of Alliance and Leicester. All of the trees were lovely and you can read about them on Jade's blog post from today.
I really enjoyed myself as we got to listen to the choir and drink wine and eat mince pies which was lovely to do.

Also, on Tuesday evening I am going to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows again with my husband and Jade as they both haven't seen it yet and I would very much like to see it again. I will be posting a review after watching it a second time as I would like to get it fresh in my memory before advising what I felt about the latest instalment of the Harry Potter films.

Anyway I'm going to watch Sweeney Todd with my husband before bed.

Au Revoir!

Christmas and Crafts

I know, I know I have been a very bad blogger recently so I do apologise sincerely! My husband and I have had many visitors to come see us so I haven't had the time.

I decided to do a post today as we went to a fabulous garden centre and they had some gorgeous Christmas stock in and tonight I have bought many items from Hobby craft to get our Christmas started. This year, we have decided to make most of our decorations and presents and at Hobby craft you can get the most amazing crafty stuff for next to nothing so we've bought quite a few bits and bobs. If you live in England then it is most likely that there is a Hobby craft somewhere near you but unfortunately we don't have one in the Isle of Man so I have had to order online.

Making your Christmas decorations is a fantastic idea for a few reasons: a) Its cheaper b) It's more personal and c) you can add your own feel to everything therefore having some self satisfaction.
Again, this applies to making your own gifts because of all the reasons I just gave plus the person receiving a gift will know that you put a lot of effort into making something so it is more special to both of you.

There are many things you can make as gifts including jams and preserves, pickles, biscuits and cakes, sweets, jewellery, books, photo frames, ceramics, etc etc and you don't have to make things from scratch you could get items and then customize to make it more personal to the person you are giving the gift to.
There are a few items that will not need anything changing but they still mean alot anyways.

I must admit, I absolutely adore Christmas and this year is the first one that we are completely independent and doing everything ourselves including cooking, decorating and gift giving so we want to make it a special one, I will be attending as many Christmas fairs I can and getting involved in all things Christmas so over the next month there will be a few Christmas themed posts.

Why not comment on my posts and let me know any ideas you have for decorations, crafts and gifts that you are doing or want to share? I would love to know what everyone thinks.

Au Revoir!

Friends and Family

I've had a wonderful weekend this weekend. My friend Emma and my parents came to stay and it's been lovely!

It was Emma's 21st birthday yesterday so we went out for the evening and got very dressed up in wonderful cocktail dresses.
I wore this lovely dress with some fabulous purple shoes and some beautiful costume jewellery, my friend Emma wore a fantastic Vivien of Holloway dress with some seamed hold ups I bought her and a necklace I also bought her for her birthday and my friend Quinn wore a very elegant red dress that I gave her with some stunning wedges and ruby red lipstick. We had an amazing time and we danced to abba and lots of 80's music. It was just fab!

This evening my parents made us all a very early christmas dinner as I wont see them until after January and it was very very yummy! I also got to open one of my christmas presents which was a lovely set of pj's and some slippers. I love them!

I just love that I've had such a good weekend and I'm very happy at the moment.
I'm also doing a mini photoshoot for my college project research tomorrow which I'm looking forward to.

Anyway, time to carry on watching Sherlock.

Au Revoir!

Work and Photographs.


Hey there everyone!
I have a massive love of photography and two days ago I had a bit of a crisis in life of what I wanted to do and what would make me happy.
After talking to one of my friends Chris I decided instead of thinking about what I wanted to do and constantly wandering about where my life would be if I'd just done what I wanted I decided to do something about it. So yesterday, I went to the Isle of Man college to meet some friends on their lunch hour. Whilst there I decided to have a chat with someone about courses and after a quick phonecall, I was accepted to do Photography.
I'm also making a very important phone call on Monday to make my life even better.
So, today after I've finished work I have my first lesson. I am 5 weeks late into the course so I have alot of catching up to do but I don't mind because I'm so happy to be finally doing something that makes me happy and makes my dreams come true.
I wanted to thank my friends and my husband for all the support they have given me the past couple of days and I can safely say I wouldnt have gone for it if it wasn't for you guys!
Please visit my friend Jade's Blog to see some of her inspirational posts and pictures!

Only a short one today as Im going to be late for work if I don't go now.
Au Revoir!

Ode to John Hughes

Okay well you all know my love for 80's films specifically directed/written or produced by John Hughes so I thought I would do an ode to him with this post.
My favourite John Hughes films are as follows:

Pretty In Pink - A film about Andie Walsh who is considered one of the 'poor kids' at school, falls in love with one of the rich, popular boys Blaine McDonough. When Andie and Blane try to get together, they encounter resistance from their respective social circles. Andie's best friend Duckie is completely in love with her but jokes about it around her. It's a bit of a love triangle with laughing, crying and a tad of disappointment. I adore this film and it is one of my favourite's but it never goes just quite how I want it too.

The Breakfast Club - Basically 5 kids get put in Saturday detention for one reason or another and they have to spend the whole day in detention writing about who they think they are. The group are really different and all have their stereotypes but soon come to realise that they aren't just how they act at school. I love this coming of age movie because you get an insight into different points of view and it makes you realise that no matter who your family are or your friends or how popular you are at school you can still beat the stereotype and be who you want to be. I think this film is fantastic and I 100% recommend watching it even if its just for the dancing scene.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off - Ferris Bueller bunks off from school for a day with his best friend and his girlfriend and gets into all sorts of jams and creatively spends the day avoiding his school dean, his jealous sister and his parents. I like this film because it's different from the others. Ferris speaks directly to the camera about all his thoughts and feelings and I like that interaction with the audience. One of the best John Hughes films' by far.

Sixteen Candles - Sam Baker has just turned sixteen but in the midst of her sister's wedding and grandparents coming over her family totally forget and don't even say it too her. Sam spends the day at school and even her friends have forgot. Needless to say she is devastated by this and her day gets even worse when she slips a 'sex quiz' to her friend but her high school crush Jake Ryan picks it up unbeknownst to her and her best friend. Sam is truly upset with this because it reveals that she is still a virgin and saving herself for Jake. Sam also has to put up with a younger geeky kid following her around all day and constantly hitting on her.
Again, I love this film it's funny, heartbreaking, and happy all in one and you should definitely watch it.

Weird Science - Two geeky, unpopular high-schoolers find that they are unlucky in love so one night whilst watching the movie 'frankenstein' they decide to make a girl of their own 'Lisa' she's gorgeous and magical and the boys adore her and she completely turns their worlds upside down in some hilarious antics. This film gives hope to geeks allover the world that one day they will be successful in love and if they aren't well you can make a woman can't you?
Watch this film and you will not be disappointed.

And finally,
Some Kind of Wonderful - Tomboy Watts has always considered Keith Nelson her best friend but when Keith asks out the most popular girl in school, Watts realises that her feelings are more and that she has always been in love with him. I can't go any more into detail of the plot otherwise I will give away the ending but it is a wonderful twist and you need to watch this film with is truly heart warming!




So there you are, some of my favourite John Hughes films of the 80's. My advice is to watch all of these films and then you will understand my love for all things John Hughes.
I think that films are amazing they can make you have so many emotions and can change your way of looking at life. I love films that do this and I can safely say that all of these films do and I am so grateful that John Hughes made these films come to life like he did. I admire him so much and I would love to be able to change lives like he has in so many ways.

John Hughes. 1950 - 2009

Oh dear.

Well, I must say I apologise sincerely for not updating in so long..I've been working non stop recently but have finally had a day off today and another tomorrow.
So, today I put on one of my new vintage dresses and went to the tailors up in Laxey. The woman there was extremely helpful and she is taking in my 50's evening dress for only £15 which is amazing considering its quite a difficult job due to the detailing around the waist and bust. She had some amazing outfits that she had made for sale and one that caught my eye is an amazing vintage inspired winter dress that looks like a mixture between an evening dress and a winter coat with its gorgeous fur trims and button details, believe me it was fabulous.
I'm going to have to take my friend Jade to see the work she does it is inspiring and although the clothes are quite expensive (because they're specifically made to your measurements and requirements) I think I may have to get myself something when I next get paid.

Tomorrow I am spending the day with Jade so I may take a trip to the charity shops and see whats on offer as I love bargains and the charity shops in town are like little treasure chests full of fabulous things.
I tend to do all my shopping on ebay and in charity shops with the odd bits and bobs bought on the high street because I like my vintage wear and its easy to find on the internet. Speaking of which I bought a gorgeous cocktail dress which is 50's inspired by Holly Willoughby, she has some amazing designs and I was lucky to get one for quite cheap you can find her clothing on Very. The dress is quite low cut in a satin material, it's a lovely purple colour with a black bow on the waistband and it comes just below the knee in a loose pencil fitting. Just gorgeous!

Anyway, I'm going to venture to the land of nod as I am ridiculously tired and I have to get up early to talk to my darling sister as I've not spoke to her in over a month!

Au Revoir!

Doctor who?

I cant believe this is the first blog I'm actually doing about Doctor Who seeing as it is my all time favourite show!!

If you don't know what Doctor Who is then you have obviously not lived!

But yea, I've been listening to alot of music composed for Doctor Who recently and I realised I am so excited for the Christmas Special this year, I hate the months that seem to go on forever between the series and the specials and it couldn't come any quicker for me!
I am so glad they have decided to split the next season over the spring/autumn and winter for 2011!

I thought that I would give my own little review on Season 5 as I haven't yet and I would like to know other people's opinions on 'the new doctor' and the story lines etc etc.
Firstly, Matt Smith makes an excellent doctor. He brings his own personality and eccentricity to the role and I'm really happy with his performances as the 11th Doctor. I love David Tennant (I've met him) as does everyone else but it was his time to go for him and for the series and I'm glad Matt could fill his boots!
I'm also glad that River Song is growing on me, because in the episode 'Silence in the Library' I wasn't too keen on her, but then again that might have been because I was jealous that she may be the doctor's wife. I have since then got married so I can't be too jealous ha ha!
I have to say that Amy Pond (the new companion) hasn't fully done it for me yet, yes she is attractive and yes she is a good character and Karen Gillan is a wonderful actress but she hasn't got the flare that Donna Noble had!
Mind you though, things go on and I'm not saying that I wish all the old characters would come back because things change and I'm happy with the results.
This may have been because the story lines have been EPIC!
I am really glad that Steven Moffat has been the writer because I love how dark the episodes have been, he always brings the horror to an episode!!

On that note I would like to say that I do hope the next Doctor is Benedict Cumberbatch because he was amazing in Sherlock and Sherlock Holmes and The Doctor have an eccentricity about them which Benedict played perfectly and I'm sure he would do just as good in Doctor Who. Plus, he just looks like he could be The Doctor!

Right, anyway seeing as I have rambled on for a while why don't you all tell me what you think about it all?

Au Revoir!

Movie night

So, you know I mentioned in a couple of my posts that a) I love musicals and b) Cliff Richard was gorgeous in his hey day? Well my amazing friend Jade Boylan and her lovely mum Joy knew this and saved up all the DVD's that starred Cliff Richard which came free with a few of last week's newspapers to give to me. Thank you very much my lovelies! So tonight I plan on watching as many as I can of these film's as I have not seen many of them. The films are as follows:
  • Summer Holiday
  • Wonderful Life
  • Serious Charge
  • Two a penny, and finally
  • Take me high
I'm really excited for my night in because I absolutely adore films and how they can change your emotions with whatever happens in them and the characters that you ultimately fall in love with.
I love having girly nights in on my own where I can pamper myself after a hard days work and watch some old movies.

On that note I'm going to love you and leave you so until next time,

Au Revoir!

Femme Fatale's and giveaways!

Okay so there is this fabulous Blogger who I check in with every single day, she is amazing and I love reading her stuff Va-Voom Vintage.
She is currently doing a giveaway competition where you have to name your favourite femme fatale from past or present. The prizes are fabulous as you can see!!

Now after much thought and consideration I have to say that my favourite Femme Fatale at the moment has to be the actress Christina Hendricks from 'Mad Men' as she just exudes sexuality and could easily make a man fall at her feet, she has a body to die for and has curves in all the right places and I personally think that young girls should aspire to be like her rather than these anorexically skinny models i.e Kate Moss.
She is just Fierce!! I mean see for yourself.

So anyway, please go and see the afore mentioned blog, it is amazing and I am so glad that there are other sexy curvy pin ups around for all your pin up needs!
Thankyou Brittany Va Voom Vintage for inspiring me and helping me out even though you don't know it!!

Au Revoir!
