🌞 Good Afternoon! 🌞

So this was the most voted for post suggestion in my stories, mum-life!

You could say we're a @heyduggee household 😂 we have so many Duggee books and toys and the songs live rent free in my head!

A big struggle with my little man is making sure he gets enough fruit and veggies in his diet. He's extremely picky and we're currently working on expanding his "safe foods" which is going slowly but we've finally added one more food which is meatballs! His list of "safe foods" are as follows:

× Homemade waffles (with different veggies in the mixtures) 
× Toast
× Bananas
× Blueberries
× Yoghurts
× Omelette (sometimes) 
× Pancakes 
× Potato scones (but never any other form of potato!) 
× Certain cereals (malt wheaties, wheetabix) 
× Meatballs (we do tescos own 30% veg variety) 
× And ofc all the snacky things, crisps, chocolate etc

One way I've found to help get more of the good stuff into him is through shakes! Every morning while he has his breakfast (malt wheaties!) I chop up half a banana, two small apples and a large handful of spinach (I'm going to start experimenting with other fruits etc soon). I then pop all of this into the blender along with some milk, one dose of his multivitamins liquid and two spoons of chocolate milkshake powder. He drinks this every day without fail, absolutely loves it! I let him watch me prepare it and tell him exactly what's going into it so there's no "hidden" fruit or veggies, this way I hope that later on in life he'll understand that these are good foods and he might try them alone as well!

🎄 Feelin' Festive 🎄

So I finally got back into Animal Crossing recently and tore down my previous island to begin building a Christmas Wonderland. This post features penguin corner 🐧

Sadly I've already lost the passion for this project and plan to tear it down after timetravelling to winter to take some snowy photos of the areas I build. My next theme is going to be a kind of softcore, springcore, romantic type? I've got lots of ideas and I'm very excited.

Right now I'm waiting for the ACNH Direct before I demolish just incase they announce anything interesting! Like maybe a second island...not gonna happen but a girl can hope right???

🥰 Happy Wednesday Peoples 🥰

Mario Kart is one of my go to games to play with my partner. I'm much of a solo gamer most the time and tbh whenever we do play together he kicks my arse every time!!

I get quite bad anxiety about playing games online with people, more so if I know then whenever irl or online. I'm not sure why as I know they're all lovely but anytime people want to come to my island, or play something together online I get extremely anxious and either make up excuses or on AC I'll set it all up and be afk to avoid more stress for myself. I'm still very active in the AC community and love to help people, just in a less interactive gaming way??

Does anyone else get this or is it just me?

🎃 Happy October Folks 🎃

I can't get enough of Tetris 99 right now. I've loved the game since I was a kid and recently started playing it a lot more again. It's highly addictive!!

What are some of your childhood video games that you still play?

🌞 Good Morning Everyone! 🌞

I realised I've never shared a post about Stardew Valley! What's going on with that?? SDV is a game I've loved for years! I've owned it on the Xbox 360, laptop, PC and Switch. It follows me to every console 😂 it's a game you can easily sink hundreds of hours into!

My current save has Krobus as my roomie 🥰 who is your go to spouse?

🌸 Happy Friday Folks 🌸

Another throwback screenshot today! This is a letter that my dear Phil sent me on Valentine's day ❤️ I've kept all the Valentine's day letters I was sent in game because they are just so freaking adorable!

I hope you've all had a lovely week! I've spent the last couple weeks actively caring for my hair and embracing my natural curls!

🌼 Happy Tuesday Friends 🌼

Yesterday me and my little man went shopping with my mum as a belated birthday treat. We got a lot of bits, although this photo just shares the bits I got for my little man 😂

Some dungerees, a set of dinosaur socks, a green jumper with a hedgehog that says "nature is the best", a dark green jumper that has reindeers and badgers in jumpers camping on it, a flannel shirt, because I LOVE flannel shirts!

I'll share more of the things we got for me later this week 😊
