A First Birthday and 2 Buisnessesssss

Step 1. I need to spend more time doing and less time moaning about it! I think this is key (no DJ Khaled) I think I spend too much time of my life moaning about how tired I am and how I do not have enough hours in the day than actually sitting down and doing the work! And hey how simple does that sound? Well add a one year old into the mix who the second I take out my laptop it's as if I have unleashed Pandora’s box and she just drops whatever she is doing and darts to my computer like me at a Mc D’s drive through after a night out (thank you for my love handles mcdssss)

So on the 4/4/16 my daughter turned one and on the 3/4/16 I hosted my first Table Bay event, why do I put myself in these situations, it feels like the last month and a half has consisted of me rushing around like a headless chicken, driving over the speed limit, constantly late (which is my pet hate) and with my notorious messy bun and some sort of outfit concoction that would only be ok if I was literally running to the shop at 3am add a baby on tow and we have my life. But I have to give myself credit where it is due because regardless of how scatty these last weeks have been I have got shit done! Table Bay was a success, the feedback was amazing and we are currently searching for a new venue to host another one! Plus I have no much in the pipeline for you baby muddahs (we need to stick together my lovelies) I want to start a Mini Table bay! That will hopefully launch in summer! The perfect shopping experience where you can sell your babies pre-loved wardrobe! How many of us have the Gucci or Burberry dress that as idiots we bought and put them on our baby once! Well it’s time to make your money back boo boo and make some extra cash to splash on their ever growing wardrobe (yes Milena has more clothes than me and she is 1) Ya'll already know I like to get off topic, but yes the day after Table Bay was my daughters first birthday, so me and my boyfriend had to rush back from north London to wake up with our daughter on her first birthday! It's crazy because I could care less about my birthday but now I can live that excitement through her again and I love that! So one week after was her birthday party which was literally Sunday just gone, it was such a lovely day! We were shocked at how many people actually came and showed us love! Milena and all the little ones had such a lovely day and it was worth all the rushing around that week, oh and the turn up afterwards *emoji sly face* (my mum gave me and don a few hours of fun and took Milena to hers at 4 for her nap) let me just say they refused to serve us anymore patron at the birthday venue so we moved onto the next lol. Regardless of all my efforts (well I scuffed a burger in my mouth) to stay up and carry on the party I was home and snuggling my daughter by 8 because I had not stopped that week! Simultaneously as all of this was popping off I have been getting ready for my other business venture to launch! Which you will be hearing about very soon! Together with one of my friends we are launching "Beejo Ldn" for all you fly baby mothers out there!

So I cannot tell you that it has been easy, It has been a constant fight to get everything done and my in laws have and sister in law have helped me so much by looking after Milena when I have to run around like a headless chicken and for my business partners for being so patient with me. I am a hands on mum so when I was material shopping with my business partner, Milena was eating popcorn in the shop driving all the people that worked there crazy! If you know me you know I do not like to leave my daughter with people, even with my family I don't want to burden them and I actually feel bad after a while and I miss her so much, but mummy gots to work man! I have convinced myself that the sky is the limit and that I can push myself to be a role model for my daughter!

Not only have I been juggling work but I have also been playing recently! Milena is officially off the boob, she literally laughs at it every time she sees my boobs now and juts pokes them! So I think Milena has stayed out 1 maybe 2 night now, and mummy has been able to have a bit of fun after a year of refusing to leave her! I loved it tbh, I did find myself talking about her at any given moment like a freak "Oh hey how have you been" "I'M A MUM" *draws for phone filled with pics* I was also surprised that my alcohol tolerance is probs where I left it!

In conclusion life when being a mum doesn't have to be about sacrifice, I think us young mums especially are really targeted by the media and our parents, motherhood is what you make it and I have decided to make it what I want to make it lol! I am a mother, a business woman and a young lady who deserves to put her heels on and hit the town or put on my wellies and go to the farm! Life is what you want to make it and today I decide to make the most of it and hit all my goals and targets that I have been putting on the back burner for the last year! Whilst still going baby club, swimming and park- obvssss

loVE

Majooooo
