To end my 2012 photo album I am yet to make,,

For some reason these pictures aren't coming up sharp but no matter. How beautiful is that little girl right there?? She's perfect. We're very lucky to have a toddler who behaves so well when out to dinner (watch now next time we go out..) I suppose it's because she's always come out with us, we don't pen her at home a lot so last week was a bit of a test (for both of us) I am glad she is better and playing with her best girl at her Childminders today!! I've missed my study time, and I am now another week behind, as always. These will be my final set to put in our 2012 album, which will get made in, well, May 2013!! Ha. 

I can feel myself getting bloggers block again, too many things worrying my mind and no where to collect my thoughts. Work situations in the UK, student debts, car worries and weather worries. In fact I'm off to turn off the heating put my coat back ON and finish my essay on Working Class fiction in the 19th Century. Things were awfully similar under the Tory government then as they are rapidly degenerating to now.. these aren't exactly the topics people come here to read, so I'll just stop typing before this becomes an essay. And get back to, you know, the essay at hand. But if you have some time on your hands, sign this because I'll be honest I don't like the idea of Arriva being in charge of a family members emergency journey to hospital should we ever need to dial 999.  And a few, other, articles to look into.. My facebook has just become a hub for article links, so I'm sorry if you've seen all of these before ;)

Goodbye 2012

I spent the whole of yesterday thinking Tuesday was NYE not New Years Day! Never mind. Anyway, I'm not sure how clearly you can see the text but I've chosen a picture from each month to show off our year and labeled it at the bottom (except for DEC, he's sitting at the top because I didn't want to graffiti Molly's chin). I do so wish I had photoshop, this would have been a lot quicker to do and I could of realised the font was too thin and rectified it, however I am SO impressed with my iphone. I will be printing and framing this in January. I took the inspiration to do this from pinterest, it was this remarkable lady who did it last year. You should follow her family they are inspiring.

Now I've credited accordingly, onto my New Year thoughts. I don't really do resolutions, they always end after January 15th or something ridiculous, so last years was to wear lipstick everyday. I manage that at least twice a week so that was a good one, it makes me feel a lot more put together. So 2013's is going to be send all the photos I've taken that month to print on payday. I know it's not a big resolution but I don't want any big changes. I'm happy with our life and with myself, I mean I DO need to go to the gym, but it's not my number one priority and I don't want to make it so. So instead I'm trying to start new little habits each year that make life a little more fun. 2013 will be the year of the printed picture! Ha.

Now to end this wonderful year, my best of's:

2012’s most played has to be Lana Del Rey, Alt- J, Frank Ocean, Jake Bugg and Ben Howard.
2012’s most watched has to be Gossip Girl, House and Mad Men (series three just arrived!!)
2012’s most anticipated has to be Dark Knight Rises and The Perks Of Being A Wallflower. I felt so many emotions after I watched this film I couldn’t think or speak.
2012's most read has to be fashiontoast, Kellimurray and Natthefatrat. I mean there are a million blogs I read and follow, and I am lucky enough to have so many people I would class as blogger friends but if I were to link everyone this post would never end and I'm already rambling.. 
*Note that I haven't done a book list because this year all I've read are books for my course. Though, Margaret Atwood's Cats Eye was amazing and I would recommend to any non-literature student!

Whatever you do tonight. I hope you have a wonderful end to 2012 :)

Fathers Day

This is one I took of Jamie and Molly on his first fathers day last year.
It's my absolute favourite picture of these two, it sits in my jewellery drawer because I'm too scared of losing my purse to keep it with me.
One year! Goodness. And one year later she still has the biggest eyes I've ever seen,
and one year later he's still the best Papa I've ever watched.
In her eye's he is the funniest man.
Her protector, the one to get her clothes on the wrong way round and it not matter, 
and she, she is just the apple of his eye.
To celebrate we enjoyed some dinner out, though I'm pretty sure Molly enjoyed it best.
And I am now in a small food coma watching old episodes of Lewis.
 So here's to many more Father's Days to come!
And many more handmade cards, early morning cuddles and daddy kisses(and punches)!



..And to my Papa, I miss you x
