Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys! Happy Tuesday! How was your weekend ?? This is another super busy week for me, Alex's activities just never seem to stop and work is super busy too. Today I'm sharing the January and February Lingerie Letters Unboxing with you guys. Because they opened later in January both months was sent together - so it was a much bigger threat this month.  So what is Lingerie Letters if you are new here? It's a Proudly South African based company that sends you a pretty pair of underwear delivered to your door monthly. Since I decided to treat Alex to a book subscription I wanted to get me something too - and who doesn't love pretty underwear? The underwear is all locally made and the products locally sourced too (the underwear looks and feels super soft and delicate - just like you would want it to feel. The website has three options - Thongs, Briefs or Surprise Me! (Which is the offer I picked - that way one month you get sent a thong, the next month a ...

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday! 2020 has really kicked my butt so far this year ... with work, Mom life, Alex's birthday and getting super sick first with a jaw infection and then flu... I've been out most of the last few weeks. Not the best start to the year but not going to let that get me down. As I mentioned here many times before- Alex does read every night before bedtime - this is a strong rule we stick to every night. He loves reading and he often walks around with a fact book or Encyclopedia in his hand reading everyone facts about volcanoes, dinosaurs or the human body. I love that  Kids Book Club  send us a cute book, an activity something and a cute bag every month. This month's theme Love Edition is super cute too. These bags are awesome if you go shopping to throw in your bag and let the kids help out packing groceries. So more about the service again if you missed it last time : We picked the two-book Fox Favourites (5-10years) package - this month we...

Hi guys! Happy 2020! And Happy Monday - the first one for 2020.

So more about the service again if you missed it last time : We picked the two-book Fox Favourites (5-10years) package and the theme for our December box was Back 2 School  - meaning the activity book includes a few activities around the theme that month. The activity book this month included a colouring, tracin...

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday! It's getting so close to Christmas and as always we are putting up the final decor up (some bigger table decorations etc we only put up closer to Christmas ... ) and all the Christmas sweet treats baskets. Today I'm sharing my December Lingerie Letter with you. As always it's another gorgeous pair of lingerie this month - A black and blue pair that looks so soft and pretty. I have fallen head over heels for this subscription service - I love receiving my pretty pair each month. It's a little treat for me that I really enjoy.

Hi guys! Happy Friday! Anyone else getting super excited with the Festive Season getting closer and closer ??  Today's post is short and sweet ... so no need for too much ramble jumble from my side.  As you know ... I love doing Festive worksheets with my students at work - and I know with school holidays here kids do tend to get a little bored. Today I will be sharing a Festive counting worksheet that you can download and print to use in one of those "Mom! I'm bored!" moments. You can download it  HERE . Feel free to share the link with friends and family too.  Are you excited for Christmas yet? Less than 12 days left - yippee !!

Hi guys! Happy Friday! Somehow my post last week never went live ( which was totally my fault - I put in the incorrect day - so my Friday Freebie post will move to next Friday instead.  As I mentioned in my Advent Calendar post here I always get the Essence Advent Calendar to open up every morning. In our house this is such a fun ritual in December - Alex opens up his Lego City Advent and I have my Essence one. Today I will share with you guys the first 6 products of the calendar - (I see they are still on sale on Takealot - so perhaps if you are thinking about it this will give you an idea what you get ).  Day 1 - Essence I Love Extreme Mascara  Honestly - Essence Mascara is a firm favourite in my books - I love mostly all the mascaras by the brand and this one is no exception. Essence mascaras last a pretty decent time on me too. I have too many mascaras open at this stage - but I'm super excited to use this beauty soon.  Essence Glitter mini nail polish...
