Choices. Beauty boxes

So I have a dilemma... Birchbox or My Little Box. Let me elaborate on that... I have singed up for Birchbox a while back, when I was still waddling back and forth from work and the idea was that I would be getting a treat monthly. And so far so good. But some things I really do not want or use. Don't get me wrong- great idea and product. Really loved some of the products and actually just treated my self to some luxury Caudalie products. And I though "oh there are other boxes too... shall I see what they are?" wish I did not do that. Well I did some digging between the night feeds on my phone and really was not impressed with other options. Until I somehow found this French thing. It has arrived yesterday, and it made me feel very happy and special. Pro of birchbox that if you review products and such you get points, points are money off. But then again I do not tend to buy much anyway, but it was nice to get £10 off my order...  Loved the art in

Cinema I love you!

As you are probably already aware I am a big fan of my local Cineworld, especially that I am also an owner of their great unlimited card. After having a baby it became a bit tricky finding time and such. I do have an amazing hubby who was looking after Edgar and I got to go to the cinema twice last week. I went to see Lucy and Dracula Untold. I missed the cinema, but I will have to only watch films that I really want to watch. However I am not sure what was my motivation to see Lucy. But I do not regret that one, it was short and sweet. Ms Johansson is very cool and messed up. Luc Besson can make a strange film and I love him for this. Now with Dracula Untold I knew why I was going to see that. Mancandy! Oh I love me a sexy Welshman, hell I married one. It was...well it was ok. Interesting take on Vlad the Impaler as a caring father and husband. But really as a plot it was a bit not grabbing and bit boring, but visually it was good.  So having a baby means

new thing

Nothing can prepare you for this... No matter how prepared you think you are. Hey I was supposed to have a nice water birth... I thought I was terrible at this to start with. I couldn't calm him down, he wouldn't feed properly I was so stressed out and worried. So my baby blue kicked in. I have never been depressed in my life, down at times, but never like that. Scary.  I am all better now. Happy, provided Sir Poops-a-Lot is not grouchy or even if he is grouchy. He is my amazing baby! It is still very strange to refer to him as "my son" or think of my self as mum. I am trying not to over think about this too much... and the fact that somehow I feel older. Maybe because my only grey hair made an appearance again. Egg is being more active every day. He stopped hating his bouncy chair and we have been to baby massage classes. Got a cute certificate. And have been looking for a baby club/play group to join, more for me I think than for Edgar. So I
