pj days

There is something about this change in the weather lately

that makes me far happier to stay at home.

The chill in the air,

the darker mornings,

the earlier evenings,

the dampness.

It is just so cosy and warm being together at home.

I remember when my beautiful boy was a tiny baby

we had a busy routine of groups to attended

and regular things that we did each day of the week.

But I always tried to keep our Fridays free.

On Fridays we would stay in,

have our naps and meals

at exactly the perfect times.

We would play,

we would be lazy.

We would cuddle . . .

a lot.

And pj days have remained a constant part of my mummy life.

In the first weeks with two children they were a lifeline.

Some weeks we are so busy

that our lazy days fall away,

but mostly we stay loyal to them.

We love our exciting days out

and our routines of groups and visits and play dates,

but ultimately a point will come when we crave a pyjama day.

A day spent entirely at home,

no walks, no quite visits,

the same, familiar four walls.

We snuggle in bed just a little bit longer.

We linger over our breakfast because we have nowhere else to be.

We dig through the movie collection

and we get cosy together under a blanket on the sofa to watch it.

It's not often that we actually stay in our pyjamas,

but comfy clothes are definitely the uniform of the day.

There is something about the comfort and familiarity of our pj days

and I work really hard to try and keep one each week.

Just one day to forget the outside world

and just enjoy being together.

The jobs can wait,

we can live without doing random errands for one day,

the outside world doesn't matter,

we have everything we need right here.

The beautiful boy's gorgeous pyjamas were kindly sent to us by Their Nibs.

They really are the loveliest sleepwear.

They are so very soft and really well made.

The fitted cut and style of them gives them a kind of vintage vibe

which I just love.

And they are covered in footballers and cricketers

with the husband just loves.

They are definitely too nice to only be worn in bed,

so we have decided that they are perfectly suitable clothes for our lazy days in.

The beautiful girl's adorable pyjamas were kindly sent to us by Name It.

With a cute floral pattern, frilly gathered ankles and pale pink piping details,

they are so incredibly pretty.

They are a soft, and quite thick jersey cotton,

perfect for the colder nights ahead.

In fact they look so lovely, soft and comfy

that I wish I had a pair in my size.

Both these items were sent free of charge for the purpose of this review

but all words and opinions are my own.
