I can't quite believe I am Mum to a 3 year old! Where has the last 3 years gone?! It has not been easy by a long shot but we have done our best and it seems to be working. Franklin is putting on weight so much in fact that he has been taken off his night feed pump! We will see what his weight does over the next month. This means he is getting all his calorie needs from food he eats. He still gets around 500ml of his 1000ml liquid intake via his peg feed tube in his tummy. He also starts nursery 3 mornings a week in September! My baby is growing up.

Being a parent is the hardest job I have ever had and I really do not know how single parents manage to do it and work. I am so lucky to have a partner that does his share and more! We make a good team.

We were in Edinburgh staying with my family for Franklins actual birthday so had a second party for him with his English family in the garden when we got back. Thankfully for the first time we got lovely weather! Everyone had a great time and Franklin was spoiled rotten!

I wore this Lady Voluptuous Cherry dress which I have blogged about before HERE but have styled it differently. It comes with a matching bolero but it was so warm out that I did not wear it. The amazing glasses are by LindsayLoweEyewear in the USA. They glow in the dark!!!!

This green beauty is from Lady V London and part of the Lady Voluptuous Collection by Georgina of FullerFigureFullerBust. I bought it a while ago in the sale but the updated style with longer sleeves is available in various colours and prints so check them out.

I love green and this shade is perfect for me. I see it as a Holloween shade and have worn it with one of my Charcoal Designs Happy Halloween necklaces and PinUp Girl Clothing bag.

This is quite a simple look for me as I normally am covered in pattern but I like the pattern of the bag and anything else with it would be too much. I may add a brooch next time I wear this combo.

I am wearing a 26/28 and the material is quite thin and has lots of stretch. Great boob coverage with lots of material. I pinned it a little high but you can pin anywhere you are comfortable or not. Love the length on this too and the floaty sleeves are are nice touch. There is a tie at the back also.
