Happy 4th of July to my family & friends in the US

Happy 4th of July to my family & friends in the US 🥳🇺🇸♥️
Happy Independence Day to the country that’s so special to me 🥰
I lived there, I studied there, I got engaged there, and every time I get to go back, I always feel right at home 🤍
💬 Quick poll: where are you from & where do you feel most “at home”? 😍

We were supposed to be on our babymoon right now but, unfortunately, that didn’t happen 🦠🚷✈️🌎
So I’m reminiscing about the good ol’ #traveltheworld days but, at the same time, remembering what we have despite the pandemic.
Including, today’s hot day that I got to spend in the garden 😄👍🏼
Even though we can’t travel and both my husband and I have no idea when we are going to see our families, I’m trying to remind myself to appreciate the smallest (read: big!) things and blessings: our growing babe, our health, our loved ones, the food, our home, our jobs. So so much to be grateful for 🤍
P.S. You have no idea how lucky you are if you already can see your loved ones or will be able to see them soon! Treasure every single minute you spend with them 🙌🏼

AD | As soon as I was in my 2nd trimester a close friend of mine advised to get a @babygo.uk birthing ball ASAP.
I ordered the ball expecting to use it more in my 3rd trimester. Little did I know about the benefits of using it throughout the pregnancy and in post-partum recovery!
It especially comes in handy for those of us expecting mamas who suffer from pelvic and sciatica pain.
Around week 16-17 my pelvic pain kicked in big time, and this ball + the exercises I did (it comes with a very handy book which gives you so many exercise options) helped HEAPS!
Scroll through the carousel - there are a few of my favourite workouts 💪🏼
It’s not just great for relieving pregnancy related aches and pains. It improves posture and helps to get the baby into an optimal foetal position for a safer birth in your 3rd trimester. On top of that, it is also an excellent little tool in helping you prep for labour by working those pelvic floor muscles 🧘🏼‍♀️
Such a win-win in my books! 💬 Have you ever used a @babygo.uk birthing ball during pregnancy or are you going to?
P.S. This ball is VERY different from your regular exercise ball. It’s designed uniquely for pregnancy & postpartum 🤍🤰🏼🤱🏼

My little corner where I spend most of my day, every day 🥰
This tired teacher is patiently waiting for the end of the term 😅👩🏼‍🏫 Though, I’ll admit - it will be bittersweet saying goodbye to my students & not starting a new term in September (but other far more exciting events are coming up 😍👶🏼).
Thankful to my husband who’s given this work space to me (because it’s more comfortable + cosy) while he’s been occupying our kitchen/dining table while working from home.
We will soon swap 😉♥️

Do you have a space which became your workspace during the lockdown and beyond? Is it your home office, your dining table or your sofa?

How was this a year ago??? 🤩
I remember that day so well.
We have just enjoyed another Disney Park (it was Hollywood Studios 🐭🇺🇸🎢), jumped into our rented car and made our way to Clearwater 😍
Even the drive there was something else (see carousel) 🤩
Clearwater beach in Florida is so special. Think white sugar-like sand, long promenade full of seafood restaurants and cute little cafes, perfect clear water (that’s where it gets its name from) and, obviously, the perfect weather 👌🏼☀️🌊
We’ll be back soon enough, Florida. With our +1 ☺️👶🏼♥️

Where do you hope/plan to go to once the pandemic is over? ✈️🌎

Muted 🔇
Tuning my ear to the voices that must be heard. Learning more. Having important conversations with those around me.
If you’ve never been racially discriminated, it doesn’t mean racism doesn’t exist.
It’s not about “I don’t see colour”.
It’s not about politics. It’s not about the media. It’s not about “it’s happening in the US and I don’t live there”. It’s not about making you uncomfortable as a white person.
Truly open your mind and heart, have compassion and understanding towards the pain many are feeling today, listen, learn, pray, take action to help.
Stay safe everyone ♥️

Hello bump, hello June & hello month no.7 of being

Hello bump, hello June & hello month no.7 of being pregnant 🤰🏼👶🏼🤍
Time has definitely sped up from when I was about 22 weeks 💨 and I am feeling the tempo!
In just a few weeks I’ll be entering my 3rd trimester & we are getting more and more excited about meeting our baby 😍👶🏼

I pray for this little baby of mine to keep on growing healthy and well, arrive into this world smoothly when it’s time, and grow up to be a God-honouring and a people-loving person ♥️

Lots of love to you all,
