Saturday adventures

Today will hopefully be a good day for us. I'm planning to sort out Yens old clothes today and donate them to the RSPCA charity shop. I wanted to do a pre loved children's sale but there isn't one near by and I need more space at home. A few of her bits are on Gumtree already but I find selling clothes on there are a bit slow.
After taking the clothes charity shop I'm hopefully going to buy Yen some Salt Water sandals. I love the sandals, they are a bit pricey but they can go in water so I'm sold lol. A few children at Yens nursery have them and they can move about with ease and the front of the sandals don't get scuffed. They seem really child friendly not like some other sandals on the market.
Finally I'm hoping to go to homebase and get some indoor plants. For some reason I'm getting into plants lately, I'm getting the green finger bug in my old age. (Ok I'm not old I'm going to be 27 lol)

UPDATE!!!!

I am knackered! The sun decided to come out so I was sweating carrying the big ikea bag of clothes. The RSPCA charity shop was really greatful for the donation which was nice. Yen wanted to know why we donated the clothes, so I had a delightful time trying to explain to a nearly three year old about charity shops and what they do lol.
After the charity shop I went down the road and probably spent half an hour in there letting Yen try on various sandals, we managed to pick one thank god!!!

 

Last but not least we didn't go home base but we did go to get 2 indoor plants. I now have 3 new plants I've bought this week so in all I have 5. Here are my three new ones.

Treat for myself some Bare Minerals goodies!!!!

So I thought to treat myself with some new products. My friend told me she wanted to try this product so I found this shop and made her go in and take a seat. I knew she was going to kill me as soon as we left the shop but I didn't mind. As she was sitting down the lady who helped us was really nice she explained all the products she was using and why etc. At first I thought ahhh this woman is just doing her job SELL SELL SELL. I then took a seat after my friend after seeing her results, I wanted to experience some of this make up. The woman said we both didn't need foundations so she put Complexion rescue- Tinted hydrating gel cream. First she wiped my face with facial cleansing oil to lift off dirt and make up. She then used the Active cell renewal night serum which made my skin feel so soft and not tight. Usually after I wash my face my face feels tight. I suffer from eczema which is a pain when finding the right make up. After that she put on the tinted hydrating gel, it feels so light and natural and my skin doesn't look dry or feel tight which my other make up made me feel. It's been more than 5 hours since the make up has been put on and it looks exactly how the lady put it on. My face also feels so soft and not tight at all so far, I'm going to use the serum religiously hopefully I will see a change. The hydrating gel was £26.00 and the serum was £39.00
I also got this loyalty card which gets stamped each time you spend £20 and once the card is complete you get £20 off your next purchase. 

Trip to buy the gorgeous ballet uniform

Off to Covent Garden we went in search of a shop called Capezio. As we entered the shop Yen was amazed with all the dance clothes and shoes. I saw the sign which indicated that the children section was downstairs. The down fall to this shop was it didn't have a lift so I had to leave Yens buggy upstairs. I didn't really feel comfortable in the shop, the person helping didn't seem child friendly if you know what I mean. In the end I could only get Yens ballet shoes and black leotard there. The person helping told us about other shops down the road that may have the rest of what Yen needed.
 I should of went into the shop Sansha in the first place, the lady was really polite and child friendly. Yen threw a strop and didn't want to listen and the lady helped me out which was nice. I managed to get a pink leotard and a pink wrap around skirt. 
When we got home Yen tried on the whole outfit and didn't want to take it off bless her.


Yens first ballet lesson

Yen loves to dance especially ballet, so I did some research on decent ballet classes that are not too far or expensive and it also had to be either a weekend or on my day off.
The classes I found usually start from 3yrs upwards but I found a brilliant one. It wasn't too far or expensive for the term (£75/term) AND they had classes on my day off AND they offered a free trial lesson RESULT!!!! I emailed the lady and she emailed back fast which was brill.
So the day came and Yen was soooooooo excited she couldn't wait to start. I loved how the teacher taught, she was polite and made Yen feel very welcomed. I loved her style of teaching it made it more fun. When the 30min session ended she gave out stickers and Yens sticker was for doing so well for her first lesson. Yen didn't want to go home, I asked if she wanted to go again she said yeah so I booked her in for the term woohoo!!!!!

Congratulations to Princess Kate and Prince William!!!!!


I'm not really into the royal family and stuff but there's something about Kate that I like, maybe it's because she kind of reminds me of Princess Diana maybe because she's so down to earth. I don't know I just like her, I am so glad she has just given birth to a baby girl. I'm happy for them especially for that gorgeous little boy George now he has a little sister. I just want to squeeze he's cheeks he's so cute. Enough of how cute he is lol I hope they name the baby girl Alice, I think it's such a nice name. Little Prince George and Princess Alice yeah I love it lol.
