Mess Mess Mess

Hi everyone, I have recieved such positive feed back from everyone and I'm so happy that who ever is reading this can relate to what I have been going through. Right now I'm dealing with teething and I could bury my head in concrete right now. Thank god it's bedtime because if I wasn't Breast feeding a quadruple spiced rum on the rocks straight would do me lovely right now!!! I'm going to dedicate this post to my home. I have newly moved into a new place, it's bigger than my old one and it's my third place and I'm happy here, But who the hell told me it was possible to move house with a 5 month old? Was I on crack when I decided to move? We were living out of boxes for like a week because do you think my boyfriend did anything but carry those boxes (also if you are anything like me you prefer to do it yourself because God knows where they decide to put any of your stuff, let alone remember where they placed it - men can't even find the butter in the fridge which is always on the top shelf THE TOP SHELF IN FRONT OF YOU!!) but I jumped that hurdle, my mum came and helped me and after a long Sunday of getting everything in order, my house is starting to look less like a bomb site and more like a house, but not quite a home. How does one clean with a baby!! It's like I'm cleaning, she is screaming, I have finished cleaning, she sicks on my sofa, I clean that and it's lunch, I clean the kitchen, she's stains her top, change her top, toys are out..clean up toys...sleep time... Whilst she sleeps vacuums and it is an ongoing cycle if I'm not feeding I'm cleaning and if I'm not cleaning i'm rocking to sleep or comforting!!! Call me Mrs muscle or the milk lady!! When I first had Milena I only bought neutral things, with the intention to have everything in her room, nothing too colourful stylish and modern oh was I wrong, now I have a jumperoo in the middle of my living room (I don't care how big and ugly it is, it keeps me sane, I know I can sit down or look at my phone for half an hour whilst she jumps to rainforest sounds! Thank you fisher price!!!) and my obsession with having everything perfect is starting to go!! Right now I am laying down and I know the jumperoo is still out in the middle of my living room and instead of having to get up and fold it up to then unfold it tomorrow I am just going to leave it there and feel no way! My house will never be in perfect shape like my old house, the same way my life will never be like that too!! So leave the walker out! Leave those wipes on the side, leave the buggy in the entrance for convenience, because instead of spending those extra 5 mins a day putting them away and then taking it out again, you can just breathe and sit down and do whatever makes you happy!! As for me, no more cream sofas because little miss Milena likes to blow strawberries whilst I'm feeding her and no matter what I cook her it stains! So good bye Fleeky interior designs and hello storage toy boxes and plastic bibs!! Majo xx
