Can you believe summer is almost finished! Its been a busy month but in a good way. Here is what I’ve been loving in August:
1 – Holidays – we have the whole month with no routine and it has been bliss!! We have even managed a few little sleep ins with 9am being a bit of a record one morning! Oh I am not ready for it to end.
2 – Maternity Clothes – With my bump ever expanding I was in desperate need of some new clothes and I managed to get a few bargains that will hopefully see me through the next few months.
3 – A trip to Yorkshire – I have written many posts about our little UK break so I wont go on too much but we did have a lovely week together.
4 – National Trust – we have spend many a day making good use of our National Trust memberships, we have found some favourites that we will definitely be returning to.
5 – We had our 20 week scan – we took our girls with us which was lovely. Half way through how exciting!
6 – Meme’s birthday party is all booked for next month! It is not like me to be so organised.
7 – Sunshine – well we have not had a full month of sunny weather but we have had a few days so we cant complain. Can we?
8 – We worked with a couple of lovely brands this month. I am quite particular about reviews as my time is limited so I want to be spending the majority of my time wring my own blog posts not reviews. However both these products caught my eye and I was delighted with the results.
9 – Play dates – it has been a summer of play dates meeting old and new friends. We have also had the opportunity to see some of Meme’s school friends which has been lovely.
10 – We have an exciting month ahead. September is going to be a busy one. We have new routines, a little trip away and a very special birthday party!
How did August treat you?
Oh I’ve been loving National Trust too! We signed up to a membership earlier this summer x #DreamTeam
Oh I’m not ready for it to end either. We’ve loved the lie ins so much and lack of routine has really relaxed us (mostly!!). I think next week is going to come as a bit of a shock!
9am lie in – what a treat! Hasn’t August been just lovely? The best summer in ages weather wise, which has allowed us to do all those summer things. We’ve been making great use of our NT membership too – I can’t stop going on about it! Looking forward to reading about all your September fun too! #bloggerclubuk
I have loved August, but the kids have gotten hyper this week so definitely feel it’s time to go back to school. It’s so exciting reaching that 20week point, congratulations! #sharewithme
We are off to a local National Trust location tomorrow – great aren’t they! Thanks for linking to #sharewithme
It sounds like you had a lovely month. Very jealous of all your sunshine – we DID NOT have a sunny summer here in Glasgow. #stayclassymama
Yaay. I think you look lovely in your dress, with your bump. Makes me all broody! I love National Trust properties and really miss them now we don’t have any! Sounds like you have had a fab month! 🙂 #stayclassymama
Sounds very much like our summer in that it was pretty much perfect! While our daughter is ready to go back to school, I’m enjoying the break in routine too much! #sharewithme
aww lovely round up and more birthdays for you too in Sept 🙂 busy busy. #BloggerClubUK
Sounds like you’ve had a lovely August, with lots to look forward to in September. The summer seems to have flown by but I am really excited for Autumn this year. Hope you and bump are okay. xx
I have loved this August too – such a change from last year! Like the maternity dress – I lived in those with NC. And National Trust ROCKS. Loved exploring this summer. Happy days! Good luck with the rest of the pregnancy 🙂 #stayclassymama
It sounds like you have been having a wondering August. We too are members of the National Trust, it’s fab isn’t it. I think by far my fav time as been spent at the beach. Thank you for linking up to the #DreamTeam xx
Your August sounds fab! x
Sounds like you had a fantastic month, our August was also great with my little one reaching new milestones and gaining confidence at cruising around furniture (he’s 10 months old), we also attended our first wedding as a family since he was born. #sharewithme
Sucks that summer is over! Love that black maternity dress tho! #stayclassymama
20 weeks is an exciting stage knowing you’re only half way through 🙂 We went to a National Trust park on bank holiday – we loved it.

What a lovely month! Half way through, wow, time has flown. Thanks for linking up to #TheList x
I could do with some new maternity clothes too – I’ve bought a few bits from H&M and have been making do with what I’ve got but could really do with a few new pieces! #marvmondays
August raced past in a complete blur, here! Sounds like you’ve had a lovely month. Back to reality, I guess.
