- Sleeping in and then snuggling in bed with the children and Mr. LA.
- Disappointing everyone by NOT making pancakes. I just wasn’t in the mood. Cue lots of ‘Ooooooooohhhh but MuuuuUUUUMM!!!’
- Eating a huge bowl of porridge.
- Trying out a new Lush soap in the shower. Smells delicious!
- Opening the door with only half a face of make-up on as our guests arrived half and hour early. Grrrrrrrrrrr.
- Leaving the children at home with the men (my lovely friend has a 6 month old daughter too) to go for spot of lunch and a well deserved trip around the shops.
- Eating too much at Wagamamas.
- Picking up a treat at the Chanel counter in Debenhams.
- Helping my friend choose her first ever foundation.
- Sniffing a million different perfumes.
- Being transported back to my youth when I spritzed YSL Rive Gauche. My mum used to wear it and I was instantly reminded of her getting ready to go out with my Dad. My friend laughed when I said it smelt like having a babysitter!
- Drinking cups of tea and watching the children play together.
- Baking chocolate cupcakes with Izzy. I finally tried a recipe from the Hummingbird Bakery book I was given for my birthday, and I can highly recommend it. Check out one of my favourite blogs Afeitar if you fancy trying the recipe without the commitment of buying the book.
- Cooking scampi and chips and peas. Mmmmmm!
- Snuggling on the sofa with Mr LA, sipping Crabbies Ginger Beer and watching Dexter season 2.
- Having a very lazy Sunday morning.
- Feeling excited about seeing my Mum for the first time since she returned from her trip to Oz.
- Loving green and purple eye shadow. It’s one of my favourite combinations. I ‘shopped my stash’ this morning and used my MAC Photorealism quad, GOSH Velvet Touch liner in Purple Stain and MAC Satellite Dreams e/s.
- Wondering how it’s possible that my skin already has that crap winter look about it when it’s not even October yet.
- Catching up with my Mum. Lots of wedding talk, it was lovely.
- Eating leftovers for lunch.
- Taking the children to the park.
- Trying to catch up on housework.
- Cooking macaroni cheese. Pure comfort food, the perfect Sunday night supper.
- Bathing the children, reading lots of bedtime stories and tucking them in for the night.
- Catching up on some blog reading.
- (Hopefully) soaking in a hot tub full of Lush bubbles, drinking hot chocolate and then reading wedding magazines in bed.

What a blissful weekend. I want your life for just a weekend please, they always sound so lovely! My Mam used to wear Rive Gauche too. xx
@Lollipop I do edit out the rubbish bits though (like falling out over wedding vows with the fiancee)!!! But yes, blissful, especially the shopping and seeing my Mum parts.

Aww, what a lovely weekend you’ve had! Mine pales in comparison. 😉
Sounds like a fabulous weekend! Having a baby really wipes your brain doesn’t it…I’ve been convinced it’s Sunday all day, when it is in fact Tuesday!!! DOH!
