Shopping & early Mothers Day presents

I don't know where to begin about telling you all what I got up to today.. Everything is so scattered in my mind at the moment from overwhelmed happiness lol. I guess I should obviously start from the very beginning of today.

Woke up and got ready nice and early and was ready for my friend Jess to pick me by 10am then I get a call from her at 9:45am saying she just woke up lol but I wasn't too fussed since I hadn't had my morning coffee yet and I could stay a little longer with my little man. After receiving the call from Jess saying, I got calls from my mum which made me stress a little because she got me to do some errands which just ruined my plans all together but at the end when it was time to do what she asked for, everything turned out as to plan.

Instead of leaving my house at 10am, Jess and I left at around 11:30am and made our way to the city for some shopping. After parking our car at Jess' friends place, we caught the bus to Central where Market City was, a quick 10-15 minute trip, we immediately went straight to shopping and looking around. 
We went into an Urban store where I spotted 'Nude Lucy' jeans that were on sale and were in my size. I went and tried out two pairs, one pair being a size 25 which did not fit me because they were just so tight! They were honestly so small that the bottom part of the pants could not go past my heels, literally. The other pair were a size 24 and luckily had zipper bottom sides, which didn't really make a difference because it still came past my heels and fit me great! I was so surprised at how the first pair didn't/couldn't fit when the second pair was a size smaller.
Then we kept looking around and met up with one of Jess' friends who had a 2h break until her next Uni class and so she just walked around with us. Then after an hour of walking around, we met up with one of our friends who was working & due for her lunch break and went to have some Maccas. Before going back up for some more shopping & walking around, Jess quickly ducked into Paddy's Markets which was just underneath Market City to purchase an NBA jersey for tomorrow's clubbing event. When we got back to drop our friend off, I was a little saddened because I saw the Yo Gabba Gabba high top vans with all the characters on it. I was so close to getting it but he already has a pair so instead I purchased him another pair of vans because my friend was working and was kind enough to give me his 40% staff discount :) then proceeded with shopping for Jaiden's clothes. Jess and I also bought our God-children some ugg boots for the winter (they're siblings).

Before leaving to go home, I traditionally got Jeremy his ramen as he requested then made our way back to our car via bus again. The way home was a pain, it took us literally 2 hours to get home from the city which would normally take us tops of 1 hour. On the way, we stopped by at Starbucks and got ourselves some hot chocolates/macchiato's and stopped off at Kaecee's house to give the kids their ugg boots and hung around a little bit.

I got dropped off at around 9:30pm where I saw my Mother's Day present/s. Jeremy earlier on the night txt'd me saying he was sorry that he couldn't get the mixer he said he was going to get me because he thought it wasn't right for the retailed price.. though I had a little hunch he had something else bigger to get when I read it. Then he got my bag our of our closet and said "Jaiden took this bag & poured everything out in the lounge" then he insisted that I put my bag away and before doing so, I looked inside to see if something were in there since he kept pushing me and there, I saw an iPhone 4 white! I was so surprised! I got a new phone and a new mixer! I am the happiest and luckiest mother right now!

markets, party & Sunday lunch

Yesterday during the day and after clearing the house up a little, we went to Parklea Markets to have a little browse around and see what we could get. We ended up getting a couple of things - Sunglasses for Jaiden and I, a hat for Jeremy and a camera bag. All that for $53! I love market prices! Afterwards, we had Jeremy's sister and her family over for dinner. We just had KFC (lol) and watched a movie, The Land of the Lost. Though, I went to sleep halfway because I was just so tired. 

Then just before 8pm, I got up to make a cheesecake for Sunday's lunch and afterwards, got ready for a night out with my girlfriends Stacee and Jess for our friend Pagna's 21st house party. Since it was a joint party for one of his friends 18th, the party was overly crowded and was filled with a lot of young people. Nonetheless, we still had a good time and that's all that matters. It was good seeing friends aswell, that I hadn't seen in a while. The party finished early though, the parents forced it to shut down.. I wouldn't blame them, being a parent now, I know where their insight is to it all, especially having to consider the neighbours. But anyway, we got home just a little after 3am and went straight to bed.

We woke up a little early this morning to get ready for lunch at my cousins house. When we got there, we were just laying around while we waited for the food to cook, the boys were playing Modern Warfare 2 (as usual). Then my other cousin Roden and his girlfriend Sam arrived, they gave Jaiden's very late Christmas present - it was a ridable mouse! it's the cutest thing. We then got stuck into eating! afterwards, I took Jaiden outside to let him walk around and we just sat around, took photos and mingled amongst each other. then after a while, we called it a day because we were so tired and just wanted to go home and sleep.  

When we got home, I went straight to bed while Jeremy stayed up with Jaiden. During the time I slept, Jeremy had already started cooking stir fry for dinner! how sweet! Then he woke me up to ask if he could go out with his friends to watch a movie. So I woke up and cleaned up a little, had dinner and caught up on Pretty Little Liars while Jaiden was sleeping. Now he's wide awake, watching his movies and playing around while we wait for Jeremy to get back home. I've taken this time to blog about the weekend before I get really lazy about it and just won't bother later =P
