Sunday 4th April – Day 93
A sunny day although not as warm as it has been before but headed over to the parents house. Bee took her bubbles so she could play in the garden. Was nice to chill properly with the parents now that the restrictions have been changed and you can meet in gardens. I still saw my parents as had to take them to appointments but never really had the chance to relax properly at their house.
Monday 5th April – Day 94
I don’t go out much but hubby suggested I go to the shops with him to do some food shopping after I went and collected some clothes parcels. Found some easter chocolate, a galaxy orange bar I was looking for…and stocked up on some frozen foods and ice cream for the girls. Then I managed to get a reel on instagram done for a Ramadan Reflections Journal I was sent from Islamic Moments.
Tuesday 6th April – Day 95
Not a lot happening today to be honest, just being lazy and lounging around. Got an IGTV review up on a new children’s book we were sent: My First Book about Ramadan.
Wednesday 7th April – Day 96
I recently found a local lady on instagram that sells houseplants. After ordering one from online which was a bit sick and not sure it will recover I decided to get some from this lady. So pleased I found her as her plants are such good quality. Went and collected them today and was tempted to get more! Hubby also decided to get a chest freezer which I ordered and will be delivered tomorrow. So I spent some time clearing up and making space for it.
Thursday 8th April – Day 97
Stuck at home for most of the day awaiting the delivery of the freezer. While waiting we decided to start our Ramadan decorations and made a reel for instagram. We just decorate the fireplace and keep it simple. Once the delivery arrived we headed to a local shop that is having a grand opening on Monday and wanted to gift Bee an outfit of her choice. Once she had picked we headed to the park for an hour late afternoon with Bee’s friends and their mum. Was nice to get out for a walk and some adult chat that was actually face to face!
Friday 9th April – Day 98
I have been wanting to get some plants for some time but didn’t fancy the 20 min drive to a place I had found and wanted to check out. Got annoyed today and decided to just drive rather than waiting for anyone else to take me – lets just say hormones were making me mad at the hubby who hadn’t actually done anything wrong. Was pleasantly surprised that when I put it in the sat nav it was actually just 9 mins away! She had quite a selection but not all that I wanted…but we still got a bit carried away and got a few bits. Planted a couple but then when I checked the forecast I realised that it is going to hit -1 and -2 at night over the next couple of days so decided to put the rest in the conservatory until after the weekend. I also got a blog post live about helping your child deal with the loss of a pet.
Saturday 10th April – Day 99
Woke up in a stressed out mood and that feeling that something is going to go wrong. Ended up eating chocolate I probably shouldn’t have. A friend had suggested we go over to her house in the afternoon but not in the mood and the weather isn’t that great to be out in the garden. So a day on the sofa instead and a spot of gardening as trying to figure out where I am going to plant the plants I got yesterday. Did make some cookies first.
How lovely to spend some quality time with your parents.
Those plants look great and the Ramadan decorations look fab!
Sorry you have felt stressed today. I hope everything is OK and your feeling of something going wrong was wrong. x

Thank you, the feeling was gone by the next day!
Nice to be able to see your parents in more relaxed outdoors than for appointments. Those cookies look delicious
Yes first steps to ‘normality’
Your Ramadan decorations look lovely and your Ramadan journal is really pretty. Hope you are enjoying your festivities.
I have no plants at all, I need to get some as whenever I see photos like yours I think plants looks lovely, but I’m just not sure I have what it takes to take care of them! Plus we suffer with allergies so I’m. Nervous about introducing new things in the Home!
Would plants with just leaves set off your allergies? They might be ok..worth looking into it
Glad you’re getting to spend time with your parents that doesn’t involve appointments. Noce to get some plants for the garden, I’m hoping the first doesn’t get to mine. Like those house plants too #365
The frost was a concern!
Lovely to be able to meet with your parents in the garden. Bee looks like she was having fun with the bubbles. Love all your new plants and your Ramadan decorations. Those cookies look very yummy too. #project365
The cookies were pretty good!
Ahh pregnancy hormones are the worst arent they? Love the fireplace decorations and hope that Bee enjoyed her shopping trip. The cookies look great. I planted out my sweet peas not realising the change in weather and I am dreading going home to see them as I expect we have lost them all and I will have to start again.

Oh no hopefully they survived!
Eliza really wants to plant up her fairy garden so i need to head out and get some bedding plants. Love your Ramadam decorations and the house plants look lovely
I need to get some more too for our tyre feature
How lovely to be able to have a relaxing afternoon in the company of your parents! Those plants do look healthy. Lovely Ramadan decorations!
Hope you found a good spot for all your new flowers! And that the new freezer will be a nice addition to home. I couldn’t be without mine, so useful.
Sorry to hear you felt stressed. Big hugs!
Yes the freezer has already proved itself useful!
The Ramadan decorations look lovely.
I would have a problem with someone who sells plants living so close as I love buying plants.
Glad you got to spend time with your parents #project365
Yep I have just ordered more from her too! Can’t help it!
The plants you bought look fab! Nice to find somewhere locally so you can pick the ones you want rather than rely on what turns up when you order online. What a beautiful blue sky in your parents garden. Sounds like a good thing you checked the weather forecast! Although I don’t want the temperature to change, am loving the sunshine.

You surprise me that you bought Easter eggs, hope they were nice. Having the plant lady much closer than you thought was a bonus. Lovely weather to be spending time in the garden with family
Easter eggs are just chocolate really
Lots of plants this week. I’m no good with plants but I suddenly have a few due to Little E’s school sending seeds home. Love your Ramadan decorations. Hormones can be interesting! #365
