Present time x

So as I have previously mentioned it is Keira-Elise's 2nd Birthday in just 7 days.
It is so so hard not to spoil your child and this year has been no exception.
Keira-Elise is going to be one happy girl on her birthday morning.
We have spent an absolute fortune but I am honestly so excited to see her little face when she opens and sees her presents.

1. Ikea Duktig Kitchen. (RRP £90)
Her main gift has to be her wooden toy kitchen! I spent so much time searching online and reading all the different reviews because I wanted to make sure I spent the money wisely and got her something that she could keep for many years. We saw this one in our local Ikea and Keira ran up to it straight away. I knew then that it was just perfect for her!
It's simple but has a vintage look to it which I love. It features a light up hob which looks so realistic. We purchased some little pots and pans, the spoons and spatulas and some play food. Cannot wait to build it for her and have a little play myself.


2. ELC Rosebud Dolls House (RRP £80)
Was quite sceptical about spending this amount of money on a dolls house, however the child in me had already fallen in love with this and I knew I just had to have it for Keira. I have had a dolls house of my own since I was just 3 years old and have so many happy memories from it. The reason I like to ELC dolls house is the wood is such a fantastic quality. It is so chunky and with a heavy handed toddler this is definitely a must. I absolutely love the colours too. I just hope and pray Keira does like the colour pink when she is older!
I absolutely love the little families you can purchase too. As Keira is mixed raced (Black/White Caribbean and White British/Irish) I love toys that celebrate her culture. We have purchased a little white family and a little black family to represent both sides of her.

These are her 'main' presents but we have also purchased her a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Minnie & Friend's figurines, a Tinkerbell Fairy Outfit, An easel with a whiteboard and chalkboard, A shopping trolley, a Tea Set and a Keyboard with a little stool.
Thats the best thing of having a little girl :) x

7 days and counting..

Hello everyone :)

It's been a while again.. I am not very good at blogging am I?
I am not yet sure if I have any readers but I will keep writing anyway, until I at least have 1 and then I will be more than happy.

The title of this post is 7 days and counting.. In just 7 days time my little princess will be turning 2 years old! Words cannot describe how blessed I am to call her my baby and even though I am so proud of the beautiful little girl she is becoming I get so so emotional at this time.
Why does time have to go so fast? It seems like 2 minutes ago when she was a tiny bundle wrapped in a blanket.

I never imagined just how amazing she would be. She can already count to 10, she can say abcd and e and she knows all the animals and sounds that they make. She can sing 'row your boat' 'wheels on the bus' and 'twinkle twinkle little star' fluently.
She has such cute ways of expressing her emotions, perpect (perfect) is one of her favourite descriptions and today she has learnt a new one which is 'licious' (delicious).
She can say her name 'Keiwa Elise Bubble' (almost there) and it makes me so proud when she does. I couldn't have picked a better father for my child so even her name fills me with pride.

In my last blog I mentioned we we're waiting to move into our home? Well we are here and we absolutely love it! It is so welcoming and so warm. There is so much to do but I honestly feel like we have all the time in the world (god-willing) We have just stripped all Keira's walls ready to paint, however have taken have the plaster down too so have to pay a plasterer to do the work (oh how I wish money grew on trees!)

Anyway this is it for me today. Will be on again soon x
