Reclaim Your Handbag!

On the 5th Jan 2013 many things changed.  I became a mother.  There was no more time for any of this..

 Don't tell me you don't have the urge to colour in sometimes?  Don't act like you're above it.  This is the best £3.00 I ever spent.  I'm sad I don't have time for concentrating on colouring inside the lines again.

 The blurry nature of this picture works to my favour.  I'm not very good at knitting but I enjoy it.  I don't have the time, or the attention span for it anymore.

I love tidying the house, pulling down the blinds and lighting lovely scented candles.  Now I am scared the scent from the candles will be too much for his wee nose.  Or irrationally scared that a candle will fall on him and set him on fire.  Goodbye cosy candles!


Two years ago, I was a very lucky girl and my lovely daddy bought me this...

Thats right, its a Mulberry.  Basque in its all holy glow.  I am not a label-y person but this bag is wonderful.  At first I was scared to leave the house with it.  I have never owned something so expensive and I was terrified someone would swipe it from my grasp.  I braved taking it out for a spin christmas shopping in Newtownards and I swear people treated me differently.  The only downside of this bag is that the all magical beauty of this bag makes everything else I own look shit.

When Joel was born my Mulberry no longer worked.  There was no room for purse, phone, keys, nappies, wipes, cream, changing mat, spare clothes and dummies.  I does not fit comfortably on the handle of the pram.  Oh no, I am not giving up on you lovely Mulberry.

This is a Ruby and Ginger Nappy Purse.  Isn't she lovely?  I love the bold print design and it's handy solution to bag overload.  You see, in this neat little purse there is a fold up washable changing amt, a container for wipes and space for 2-3 nappies AND a handy wee pocket for cream.  Great, because I never want to know the damage Metanium would do to a lovely Mulberry handbag.  

Look at the order it had created.  I am one happy girl.  What is the florescent green thing in the bag you ask?  My diary, I chose that colour so I am never stuck hunting in my bag for it.  I like order.
