AD | Splish Splash! 💦

We’ve been waiting for this for months 🙌🏼
Eliana had her 1️⃣st Water Babies swimming lesson at the weekend and it was AMAZING 🤩💦

I’m very excited to share that we are partnering up with @waterbabies for the next 10 weeks and bringing you along with us 🥳

Our 1️⃣st lesson was so much fun and so well organised. The staff welcomed us at the reception and guided us to the pool where every spot was set up safely for each parent+baby to get ready before going in.
Then the instructor (who was ahhhmazing!) taught us how to safely bring babies into the water, and we started our first lesson 🐠

We got to do many fun activities, sang songs, moved and splashed A LOT, and Eliana even started doggy paddling in the water and splashing 😄😍

I highly recommend looking up a Water Babies pool near you - it’s THE best class, and it’s also such an important + fun skill for the little ones to learn and enjoy 🥰

Next week - first underwater swim 🤩💦🐠

💬 Do you enjoy swimming?
If you’re a mum or a dad, does your little one know how to swim / love swimming? 💦🏊🏻‍♀️

1 STEP CLOSER

If we had learnt anything in the past year, let this be it. More compassion, less selfishness.

Listen, I know we are all fed up with being in lockdown. England has been in one since Christmas. It’s been tough. It felt claustrophobic. It messed with our mental health. But it was also necessary.

Today, the ‘Stay At Home’ rule is being lifted and 6 people are allowed to meet outside.
Let’s take advantage of it and enjoy it.
But also, let’s not wreck this now.

I cannot wait for mid-April and being able to do so many more things but I will always follow the rules & I will not have any tolerance to adults who break them acting like spoiled toddlers because “I’m fed up!”
We all are.

If you’re not in the U.K., your local rules and regulations might be very different.
Most of you can go to the shops, restaurants, gyms and your hairdresser.
Many of you can see family and friends.
Some of you can resume “normal” life, whatever it was, pre-pandemic.

We see you and we want to be where you are. But not at the expense of more lost lives, more Long Covid sufferers and pressure for our medical heroes.

We can do this.

1 step closer.

Here’s to strong women.
May we know them.
May we be them.
May we raise them.
♥️

This little quote resonates with me even more now because I have a baby daughter.
I want her to grow up knowing that she’s loved, she’s strong, she’s smart, she’s beautiful inside and out & that she can do anything 💪🏼

Happy International Women’s Day 🌸
Make sure you lift another woman up 🔝 instead of bringing them down, and not just today 👏🏼

Instead of looking for their “imperfections” or discussing their “flaws”, compliment them.

Instead of correcting them, try to be an example to them.

Instead of being jealous, be happy for them and share in their joy ♥️

Be the woman who raises others up 🙌🏼

We love to read in this house 📚

Most of the time holding a book with our hands and sometimes feet do a decent job too 😅🦶🏼

Eliana loves her books! 🥰
Her favourite book at the moment is Poppy & Sam’s - Animal Sounds followed by That’s Not My... series.
Books are amazing, and I’m so glad we are raising a reader ☺️

Happy #worldbookday 📚
What’s your favourite book?

PLAN 📝

Day 2️⃣8️⃣ aka last day of February & #FebWithMielAndMint ✌🏼
Prompt - Plan 📝

Even though no human could possibly predict or plan for the world pandemic, we persevere 🙏🏼

Maybe some of your plans got rained on or completely ruined in 2020 or at the start of 2021 (mine did). But, ultimately, it’s important to keep a bigger picture in mind and keep powering through.

It might be hard to make plans right now. Maybe even disheartening because “what if...”, and that’s understandable.
At the same time, I’m feeling positive about March and spring time!
I’m thankful there’s a vaccine available.
I’m thankful the infection rate is going down.
I’m thankful for the sunshine which we all needed so much! ☀️

What are some of your March plans and/or goals?

Some of mine involve:
🙏🏼 strengthening my faith & my walk with Jesus
👶🏼 booking baby classes for April/May
🧹 spring cleaning
💪🏼 exercising regularly
💡 working on my venture, one nap at a time
and last, but not least,
✈️ dreaming up & planning future travels.

Can’t wait to be back to one of our favourite destinations as a family of 3 🥰
