So my mum and I went shopping in Nottingham today and had a really nice time. I have to say, there are elements of the town I will miss. The Market Square was recently done up and its really lovely on a nice day like today (its been cold, but hasn't rained so thats nice, for England!), I know where all the shops are, and the best laces to grab a coffee, and the view from the castle is stunning.
We were on the hunt for some clothes for me that would expand as I do and I was pleasantly surprised at whats about these days - gone are the days of dungarees and such. So I was happy about that.
We passed this shop that sells suits and dresses for weddings and special occasions and they had these absolutely gorgeous tiny little suits, for teenie tiny people...like, a double breasted jacket, trousers, shirt and tie...OMG how cute! I practically burst into tears there and then in the shop. They had little dresses too...I was thinking, how small is the person that fits in that, and I had another one of those 'oh my God, I'm gonna have a little person who would fit in that, and real soon' moments. Wow.
I was texting David throughout the course of the day, as we often do, and I told him about these gorgeous little people suits. He said we have to get them, when we know what we're having and then we'll all go to the races. I was lost in the dream of it, when his boss, who'd been sort of listening in on the conversation (can't miss David when he's talking, Geordie's arent exactly known for being quiet!) and mentioned that if I want to, I can go with them when they work Ascot this year.
A week in a posh hotel, free drinks (not that I can drink), should make a nice bit of money, a chance to dress up...I'm there! So technically that will be our first proper special family outing, even if our baby never remembers it! Haha x
I'm really excited about that now, actually. Last summer David worked at Royal Ascot and I watched it on TV everyday, borderline obsessed with the possibilty of spotting him, and sure enough on the last day, I did, in all his glory looking absolutely gorgeous in his suit. I remember I was sitting desperately wanting to shout out 'That's him! That's the man I love! Man he looks gorgeous in that suit!' but of course...that wasnt likely to go down well with hubby sitting next to me! Ouch.
Anyway...still in a very good mood, still feeling healthy and so so lucky.
Hope you all are too!
Peace and much love! xxxxxxxxx |
