Yesterday was a pretty eventful day - it started off with me winning the hair battle between Jonathan & myself, hahaha! I had been trying to convince him to shave his head for SO long as I think it suits him the best and he finally agreed with me. I love him with a tighter haircut! I think it shows off his face & makes him look younger and slimmer. Needless to say I am very happy with his decision :)
We headed to Bluewater (again) but this time with the whole family in tow. Although it was a bit stressful getting both children organised and working around their napping schedule, it actually turned out to be a lovely day out! I wore my pink & rose gold trousers from Ted Baker, Forever21 olive green blouse and New Look leopard flats.
We ate lunch at Jamie's Italian again as they are very child-friendly and I love that the highchairs are all TrippTrapps so Emilia & Eduardo feel like they're at home! This time I ordered the crab spaghettini which were delicious and Eduardo had home-made fish fingers and potato wedges which he completely polished off!!! He is a monster! He also insisted on clutching Donny (Doc McStuffins' brother in case you didn't know) the entire time he was eating!
As a special treat I told Emilia we could go to "the cupcake shop" which she was super excited about! Her eyes nearly popped out of her head when I brought her over to the Lola's Cupcakes stand!! It was so cute! I don't think she truly believed that there was such thing as a cupcake shop, (and I don't blame her...it does seem like something out of a dream) so when she saw all the different flavours, colours and sizes she squealed with excitement! She picked chocolate of course and I got red velvet. Her daddy got a brownie and Eduardo had a mini Oreo cupcake!
After that we went to the Disney shop which we had been bribing both children with all day. Emilia was equally as excited about that and marched around the shop picking out things for both Eduardo and herself...she quickly learned that the double buggy makes a perfect shopping trolly to store things in (I followed behind putting everything back!). Some of the items she picked for Eduardo included a Snow White doll and a Mickey Mouse beach ball. Her choices were noticeably more extravagant such as a Doc McStuffins doll & accessories set, Sofia the First ship with mermaid dolls...but in the end they were allowed to pick one toy each so she got a set of Disney Princesses and Eduardo got a Mickey Mouse train station (or at least I think that's what it is, I'm really not sure!).
I hope you all had a good weekend!
Loved the video....are we going to get a close up of the ring soon? I loved when Emilia was excited for the cupcake and the Disney store! I even liked the screaming!!

Hey Anna loved both your blog and the vlog today, Emilia was priceless when she saw the cupcakes! I laughed so hard. My six month old son loves watching her, and needless to say he got just as excited about the cupcakes. I love your family so much! You are an amazing mom and so inspiring! Xxx
ReplyDeleteLove you and your family Anna!
ReplyDeleteIt seems like you had nice day and kids too :-) Emilia looks so sweet around cupcakes and It's funny how she picks Ardo's toys :-D
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to hair styles I like when my boyfriend shaves his head too and some facial hair, haha. Are you going to show us your ring? I understand if you decide to keep that private ♥
Love Jonathan's new hair cut! It really makes him look so much younger. Happy you guys had a great time shopping and those cupcakes look so very yummy!! Thanks for sharing your day out with us & hope you have a great week ahead.
