AUGUST | Blog

How can it be August already??? I honestly feel like I have blinked and we are in the middle of summer. August feels a little bit like the calm before the storm for me. It is going to be a month filled with planning, preparing and organising as we get ready for the craziness that is going to be September. I am sooooo looking forward to all the exciting things that are going to be happening next month but seeing as that is a whole 31 days away, here's what I am looking forward to in August!

Summer Days Out
When I flick through my diary for August, we only have one free weekend! BBQ's, birthday parties and family fun days are filling our weekends and I am so excited about it! Bubba loves nothing more than being out in the open and all of the things we have planned are out in gardens or in the woods or at parks. Just keep your fingers crossed for me that it doesn't rain!!!

Finishing Our Bathroom
I'm going to write a separate post about our bathroom journey as it has been a bit of a drawn out one but I am looking forward to Hubby finally finishing off our bathroom this month. It's only the little things that need to be done now such a lights being put in, kick boards attached ect but it is always these little things that take the longest time. Lets hope (for hubs sake) that the bathroom is finished as soon as poss into August.

Planning Bubba Birthday Party
I can't believe I am planning my little bubbas 2nd birthday party!! It's something I am struggling to think about at the moment as it makes me feel way too emotional (yes I am that type of Mum) but I am planning on distracting myself from the impending tears by planning a kick arse birthday party. I am currently struggling with picking a theme though! Bubba loves Mickey Mouse clubhouse but we had that theme last year so I am considering going for something else that he loves like PJ masks or The Lion Guard but I really am not sure. I guess I had better decide too as there isn't long to go!!

Holiday Prep
We are off to Disneyland Paris in September (just in case I haven't mentioned it enough times already) and I am one of those sad people who really love to plan for holidays. I love planning to pack and writing lists of everything we need...it's all part of the holiday experience for me and I will be getting started on my OCD organised planning in a few weeks time.

So that is what my August looks like! What are you plans for this glorious month? Let me know in the comments below :)
