May Spells a lot...




Well I caved (well Grandma did) and May now has her very first (mini) lalaloopsy doll, Bea Spells a Lot. Love love love. My mum and I are now addicted to finding these little treasures they're like gold dust you can't find them anywhere, we're stocking up when we can for the little one's birthday. She has a poster and is so excited to collect them. I like to think collecting something teaches good lessons but I think I'm just making myself feel better! hehe!
Anyways Bea spells a lot is made from an old school uniform, so goes the tale and of course is an excellent speller. This inspired May to practice, practice, and practice some more and I know I'm biased but I think this is pretty darn GREAT for a THREE YEAR OLD. Super proud mum moments! Her writing and spelling is coming on in leaps and bounds AND more importantly she LOVES to practice. I never force her into it she asks me! I'm all for letting kids learn at there own pace and encouraging everything as and when it happens and well I'm pretty happy with how that's working for her.

    Thanks Gem! They're called Lalaloopsy dolls. They used to be called Bitty Buttons I think, We've only just discovered them ourselves but now we're addicted! It's the first girly thing that May has REALLY been interested in. Google will tell all and then you're addiction will begin too! hehe! xxx lotsa love x

    The dolls are lovely and there is lots of fun to be found in collecting. She looks to be quite advanced for her age, what a clever girlie. xxx

    Hello there! What a cute blog. I am in love with your title picture- it's what I'd love my little girl's room to look like.
    I've had a peek at some of your other posts and love your sewing creations- i've just dusted off my Nan's old machine and am also learning to make little projects too. Funnily enough, I've made hearts a bit like yours!
    Anyhoo, am newest follower so I can keep in touch. Do pop over and say hello if you have time.
    Xx

    Did you say she was only 3 years old? WOW her writing is brilliant for that age! My 4 year old is just now writing her letters. Aren't the lalaloopsys great? My girls adore them too!

Im a huge procrasinator when it comes to actually sitting down and doing things I need to do within a certain time scale, no matter what good intentions I have I always end up being last minute with things. I've recentely started doing an online computer course, I can use a computer but don't have any formal IT qualifications so thought it may be helpful, anyways I literally have to force myself to do it and it's hard work. The internet is just so tempting for a quick check of a blog here or a little peak on ebay there, how kids get any homework doen these days I'll never know! To think we never even had access to computers when I was at school, let alone the world wide web! Do they even actually hand write anything these days? crazy thought eh! I went to look around a big school for May this past week and they were all sat there in class with their own laptops, I couldn't quite believe my eyes! Anyways, the school was nice, going to see another next week, I can...

The bright side of life..

Sometimes I have phases were I'm prone to dwell on the bad, let it get to me, over think situations, think how I could've and should've reacted and generally focus on the bad things in my life like the fact that I have dumb ass neighbours who have their music blaring at all hours of the day and are generally inconsiderate, or the fact that due to stress or hormones or actually the doctors have no idea my hair is falling out and for about 90% of the time it's all I think about, whether or not people are noticing, is it really obvious, are they thinking I look like a freak? why can't I just look normal! Or how at play school May always says hello to everyone and last week she asked a little girl to sit next to her to which the girl just looked at her like something you stand in and walked away, so May ended up sitting all by herself and there was nothing I could do about it. May however doesn't let it quash (i think that's a word) her happy little spirit, I ca...
