A Little Life Update!

17 December 2012

Le Beauty Girl (lebeautygirl.com)

Hi guys, I’ve been a really bad blogger lately, but I promise I have a few good reasons :) Some of you may know that I’ve recently moved to a new house, which is beyond exciting but also very time consuming! My fiancé and I are both super happy with our new place and we’ve been dedicating most of our time trying to turn the house into a home!

Since I’m on the fiancé topic, another thing that has been ultra time consuming is wedding planning; oh dear! I didn’t have a clue what to expect, but fortunately it’s all falling into place. We’ve chosen a Summer wedding, so we’re getting married in July 2013 which means we have 7 months to get everything ready for the big day! I’ve chosen my wedding dress, and if you follow me on Instagram (@lebeautygirl) you will have seen a few sneaky peeks; I’m really in love with my dress, it definitely made me feel like a princess. Oh, and it’s true what people say about choosing your wedding dress, you KNOW when you’ve found the one! :)

My mum and brother have come all the way from Brazil to stay with us for a couple of weeks and I’m really loving having them around. We went to Bicester Village in Oxfordshire a few days ago and they loved it there. It was all so Christmassy and pretty, it felt like we were in heaven; especially for shopaholic people like mum and me :)

My 30 Lipsticks in 30 Days Christmas Challenge is still very much happening, but for the whole of last week I only had one lipstick in my handbag; all of my other lipsticks came yesterday along with everything else in a moving van. So I’ll see how this week goes and if I can’t find the time to blog, I’ll continue the challenge for 2 more weeks after Christmas.

So that’s what’s been going on in my life lately. Unfortunately, blogging had to take a back seat until I’m properly settled in my new house. I hope you don’t hate me! I haven’t blogged or uploaded a video in a week but I miss it terribly :( I’m hoping this week will be a bit less chaotic than last week, but my mum and brother are still here and I don’t want them to stay in the house all day whilst I catch up with my blogging duties.

How are you all doing? I’d love to know what’s going on in your lives lately! How’s everyone getting on with their Xmas shopping? Mine is halfway there! :)

    I understand why you can’t find time to blog that much. It’s MAJOR and amazing changes you’re going through. Look forward to read your posts later on, but for now take your time and enjoy decorating your home and getting your wedding plans ready! (: <3

    Ai, que lindo saber do seu casamento, Ysis. Felicidades sempre!
    Eu ando atribulada com meu curso e o stress tá no nível máximo. Também tenho pouco tempo pro blog o que me deixa triste, pois apesar de não ser uma obrigação, faço da melhor maneira possível e não gosto de postar qualquer coisa.
    Mas enfim é assim mesmo.

    Desculpe a falta de comentários, mas realmente ando sem tempo. Mas vejo o teu blog sempre.
    Beijos, beijos. Feliz Natal e foi um prazer ter “conhecer” esse ano. :)

Hyperemesis stole 8 weeks of my life. Not only that, it took me to the darkest and loneliest places in my mind. This was supposed to be the pregnancy that I exercised all the way through, enjoyed every little second of it because it’s likely to be my last baby. But instead, I’ve spent a huge part of it crying, struggling, feeling weak and hopeless.

I’m still grieving the experience I thought I’d have, but I feel so lucky to have improved dramatically over the last 4 weeks. I get so much joy just doing little things that I couldn’t do before - showering on my own, eating a full meal, talking, doing the kids’ bedtime routine.

I believe everything happens for a reason. Whatever that reason was, it was meant to teach me to appreciate more my body, my family and the small things in life. ❤️

It’s been a little while since my last update. Last week was tough, but this week I’ve started to see the light at the end of the Hyperemesis tunnel.

I’ve been able to keep most of my food down and I can now drink sips of water. Honestly that is such an amazing feeling!

I’m still being sick and still limited on what I can eat, but everyday I tolerate a few more smells and food.

My cravings are so weird! Full of things I’ve never bothered with before - Brazilian hot dogs, McDonalds Fillet O’ Fish, tinned peaches, tuna mayo jacket potato.

I’m still very weak and out of breath if I walk around - my body is playing catch up with the last 2/3 months of living on barely nothing.

I’m into my 14th week and I honestly feel so hopeful right now. ❤️

Ad: Today is International Women’s Day and this Ad: Today is International Women’s Day and this year #LEGO are celebrating the women of the future; our imaginative, creative, inspirational little girls!

We were asked to take part in the campaign, replicating a classic LEGO ad from 1981, which shows a little girl proudly holding up her LEGO creation.

So when I asked Bella what she wanted to make, no surprises there, she chose a princess castle!    

I feel like this reflects her personality so much; she’s sweet and kind, but also really knows her mind and is super determined to do what she wants, how she wants it! 💗 Didn’t she do well?!

If you want to take part and recreate the ad with your amazing daughters, you can submit a photo at LEGO.com/FutureBuilders.
