New Year Blog Post Round-Up 2014

31 December 2014 by Naomi 2 Comments

Last year I did a summary of posts and photos throughout the year and I thought I would do another to close this year 🙂

It means taking the first few lines of the first blog post for each month and a photo for the month:) So here is Lovely Little Life’s 2014!

***

JANUARY

This year I am not making new year resolutions as such… I have found that ‘New Year Resolutions’ tend to have a kind of stigma of being unattainable or quickly forgotten about or otherwise broken long before the years end.

FEBRUARY

Well, we are pretty much one week into February (already?!) and thankfully I think we are all feeling much better for it in our neck of the woods.

MARCH

I can’t believe that it is the 1st of March already!

Happily, February did end on a good week for us and today was apparently the first day of Spring in the meteorological calendar. That is some very welcome news!

APRIL

Wasn’t Tuesday just gorgeous in the south east? We popped into town for a few errands and found ourselves whiling away the hours on the seafront. Bliss.

MAY

It has been one of those weeks where I feel like we haven’t really been doing much of anything and yet at the same time I’ve felt ridiculously busy.

JUNE

A little while ago I came across a tutorial for a little dress with a crochet yoke on Mon Petit Violon. I finally got around to making a similar dress for Emma!

I used the original dress idea as inspiration but tweaked it here and there to suit and fit Emma.

JULY

Happy Monday! :)

I’m back again to link up with Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom. As I have managed to go a week without blogging again… One of these days I’ll get myself organised into a good routine of posting!

AUGUST

Happy moments… quite often involve hooky time for me and not as often as I would like include home making.

SEPTEMBER

Hello lovelies, I haven’t been around too much lately have I?

I just haven’t had quite as much time on my hands recently and as usual my poor blog is the first thing to slide (*ahem* if you don’t count certain aspects of housework!).

OCTOBER

We are so excited to announce that we are expecting a new little addition to our family! It is a huge blessing that has truly been prayed for and I am so thankful for this new little life.

NOVEMBER

Goodness, where is this year disappearing off to?! A fortnight ago I shared our wonderful news and explained why hadn’t been around so much, but also declared I was getting back to normal and should be around a bit more….

DECEMBER

So today is apparently the official first day of winter… and the start of Christmas judging by the number of fully decorated trees and houses in my social media feeds!

I have to say pulling this together was great fun, I don’t spend enough time going back to look at past blog posts and it is so lovely to remember and see all the wonderful memories we have made together over the last year. I was seriously considering whether I was going to keep this blog going next year but this little exercise has renewed some of my passion for it!

2015 is going to be an exciting year in our Lovely Little Life, some big adventures to embark on and of course the biggest adventure coming our way in April. I can’t wait!

Happy New Year lovely readers! Wishing you all the best things for coming year!

New Year Fun – 2013 Edition

31 December 2013 by Naomi 2 Comments

I saw that Sandra over at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom is having a new year fun round up and I thought it a good way of summarising the last year so I’m joining up here!

It means taking the first line of the first blog post for each month and a photo for the month 🙂 So here is Lovely Little Life’s 2013!

***

JANUARY

Happy New Year!  Did you all enjoy your new year celebrations?

FEBRUARY

I have some news! Over the last few months I’ve been receiving a number of emails from you lovely readers asking whether or not you can buy my crochet baby sandals or Stripey Owl rattles and until recently I have declined for various reasons.

MARCH

Oh my. It has been a while since I’ve posted hasn’t it!

APRIL

Happy Monday! I made it! Just! Haha another busy day!

MAY

…We have had mystery illnesses (Emma), knock-you-out migraines (me), random rashes (Emma again) and a heroic husband/daddy taking care of us all (Vince, of course).

JUNE

At some point I will get into the habit of blogging regularly….. I am getting so terrible at sitting down to write up posts and yet there are so many things I’ve been meaning to show you!

 

JULY

It would seem I have lost my voice recently. That is to say, I have been struggling to find my blogging voice.

 

AUGUST

Have a blessed Sunday!

SEPTEMBER

July and August were really good months for us as a family. Vince had booked lots of holiday from work which meant we were able to do lots of fun things together and make the most of our summer.

OCTOBER

Hello lovelies. Today we finally got out to the woods for a walk.

NOVEMBER

Hello, remember me?! I can’t believe it’s been a whole month since I last posted!

DECEMBER

Goodness, how did that happen?! Life just seems to be whistling by at the moment! It is the first day of advent already!

Well there we are, a snapshot of 2013 through this blog… I definitely see a theme that I’m working on changing….

Overall a very happy year and I’m looking forward our next!

Happy New Year everyone!

Naomi x2

2 August 2012 by Naomi 1 Comment

I have become mildly obsessed with instagram (a phone photo-editing app for those who don’t know!). It is so much quicker and easier to snap a picture on a phone these days than to lug the DSLR out all the time (particularly with a baby on one arm)… and instagram… well it’s just fun!

You can follow my instagram feed online here or if you have the app I’m @ourlovelylittlelife.

I realise that last month was a tad light on the posting side of things so I thought I would use my instagram snaps to round it up for you.

(Please prepare for a photo heavy post)
