POLAR EXPRESS WEARDALE RAILWAYS



This was the first year that we had decided to go on the polar express train weardale. In December on television as a family we watched the polar express movie and Ellis loved it! He sat all the way through it with us, which if anyone that knows Ellis will know that he only sits through anything with planes or cars in.

It was a amazing experience for all of us! We didn't know what to expect at first but we loved it and can't wait until next year to go back. We read the polar express book together with a huge book, sang songs and had hot chocolate and cookies!









We plan on doing this with our families every year from now on! It was brilliant, Just like the book and movie! 







SEE OUR POLAR EXPRESS RIDE! :D

THROWBACK THURSDAY: CHRISTMAS EDITION

Christmas 2015 was amazing, As I haven't posted about Ellis's second christmas I thought I may swell do it now to keep the memories alive. We set some new traditions and kept some old ones.





As a Present every night for the last 12 days leading up to christmas. We got a little present with a message on our doorstep. It was so lovely and so amazing. I really like this wooden nativity as well. 



Me and Nathan took Ellis to see Fenwick's christmas window display. This is a new tradition and we will carry on with this until Ellis is older. I used to go and see Fenwick's window with my grandparents and parents when I was little so It's nice to keep it going with my son. 




This was Ellis's Christmas Eve Basket, We have been doing this for every christmas for Ellis. We always put his little christmas plate in, his new christmas Pj's, a christmas soft toy and a christmas book.









This was our short little christmas throwback. With Christmas only 15 weeks ago it's nice to look back on last year's christmas.

See you soon

So a few things have changed over the last year. One major change has been that I AM ENGAGED.
I got engaged on the 30th October 2015.



We went out to celebrate on the night to TGI Fridays and We had a lovely waitress who left this lovely note on the receipt. So here began the journey. I thought I would start to bring you up to speed with this as it has been the most major event to happen in the last year.

On Saturday 2nd November 2013, I realised that I hadn't felt Ellis move for a while, So I called the maternity ward straight away. The midwife on the phone asked a few questions and told me to come straight in to hospital to get little baby monitored and checked over. Mum and me ordered a taxi straight away because I couldn't drive and my parents don't drive so taxi it was. I got a little handbag packed. Once the taxi arrived it was a lady taxi driver and when I told her I was overdue and going to hospital. I think she panicked a little bit I would as well  if I was a taxi driver.

When we arrived at 6pm that evening we were put in a side room to wait for the doctors to check me over, that evening was very busy all the rooms were nearly full and the nurses were rushed off their feet, so we had to wait a couple hours. After being monitored for a hour, the midwife told me they had decided to give me a stretch and sweep. I was 5 days overdue at this point so I was booked in for a sweep during the following week. At 11pm a doctor came in and give me a sweep and told me to come back on Monday morning, Ellis had other plans because as soon as I got in the taxi home I started to have contractions. These contractions were very close and strong from the very start.

I waited thinking they would get worse but they never did so finally 6am come and I started to get the urge to push so my mum phoned the the ambulance and they got me to hospital. When we arrived they send me to a delivery room and examined me. I was 10cm dilated. I freaked out as there wasn't any time for pain relief. And after 2 hours of slow pushing and all I could think of was a bacon sandwich. The feeling of holding your little baby that you carried and already loved more than your whole soul in your arms for the first time is indescribable without question! I felt overwhelmed and shocked but so in love. 



Ellis Robert Pennington was born at 9:33am Sunday Morning of 3rd November 2013 weighing at 8lb 5oz with no pain relief and a natural birth. 

Greatest blessing I could have asked for and more!
