Busy week!

I've been a bit quiet on my blog this week and it's been strange not posting every day / every other day, but it's just been one of 'those' weeks and I needed to take a brief, impromptu break.

I posted about the March challenge from Center Parcs and I was also a guest blogger over at Bump to Baby for the lovely Alex whilst she's settling into her new home, sharing my tips on making the most of your time when you're a working mum - did you have a read?

I just haven't had the time to do very much else. I have a big campaign at work that launches soon so I have been clocking up the miles in my car, I've had a friend come to stay and of course I've had Ethan to look after, and he's been a little sick and restless this week. I'm calling today Frazzled Friday as I am very much looking forward to the weekend!

My week started with a mini breakdown on my part; nothing serious had happened, but I just had one of 'those' days when a few little things added up and I felt a bit sorry for myself. From slamming my fingers in the front door to cleaning carpets after Ethan had been sick, Monday wasn't a lot of fun for me. Having hubs working away during the week can sometimes be too much and I have pangs of working mum guilt too, where I feel I'm rushing around, not getting things done and not spending enough time with Ethan.

My week and my mood improved considerably when one of my best friends, Bex, came to stay. She arrived late on Tuesday night and we spent two days together, chatting, shopping, playing with Ethan, eating and chatting some more. Oh, and we also went to see Backstreet Boys on Wednesday night. Yep, I am a self confessed BSB super fan and proud of it! We've been to see them many, many times but they were the best I've ever seen them on Wednesday and we had such a fun time.

I was so glad when Ste came home last night and I had the first good night's sleep in a while as Ethan managed to not be sick and slept through, which was a fantastic early Mother's Day present (thank you little man).

I'm finishing early for the weekend too so things are definitely looking up. Ethan's nursery is having an afternoon tea and crafts session for mums today which I am really looking forward to.

I have no idea what I am doing for the real deal, but I understand that Ethan has been busy making plans with his Daddy and I am so looking forward to spending this special day with my special boys, big and small.

Happy Friday everyone!
