Morning WWWers, I hope you have a lovely weekend planned.

We are no doubt going to be at the house DIYing for the majority of the time hehe! The rewire is almost complete, the new windows and doors are in, the plastering is well under way and we have started painting!!

I popped to Ikea and picked up this fabric to make some curtains for A’s room. At the moment we are whiting out the whole house, before perhaps adding colour or wallpaper once we have moved in. But for A’s room I am thinking of a black and white theme, perhaps with a chalkboard wall and some colourful accessories. Fun and ageless is the look I am after.

For the living room I am tempted by the idea of a charcoal feature wall behind the fireplace. We are hoping to uncover and sand the wooden floors and add a huge cosy rug. I need to find some more fabric or curtains for our bedroom and the living room too. For now though I am going to buy some blackout blinds for the bedrooms as I think I may run out of time before we move in… NEXT WEEKEND! Arghhh.

Cue anxiety, nerves, stress. Packing, moving, organising… I hope I can cope with it all. It’s going to be so weird having stairs, a driveway and garden. I so hope that A settles in OK too. We are moving him to a new nursery so there is a lot of upheaval all round. Luckily we are only moving 10 minutes down the road hehe :-)

And Christmas… well I just cannot get my head around that one yet.

We did manage a couple of little outings this week, for bonfire night and a little walk in the woods. I think it’s important to still feel like we are living and keeping a routine for A.

Anyway I am going to love you and leave you to get our home ready to move in… here is a taster of what next week has in store… yippee!
