Welcome to my blog....

This really should have been my first post shouldn't it .....
Anyway I've been wanting to start a blog for a while now and I thought as it's summer, now is the perfect time to start it. As you probably already now by the name of my blog I am caitlin, a teenage blogger from Scotland.

My blog will be about my days out with my family, my thoughts on things and fashion. If you keep reading my blog you will soon discover I love shopping and fashion.... I will be also sharing the things I love at the moment. I am really excited to be getting this blog up and running at last :))


  
P.s. Sorry for suck the bad art skills.... Can you please leave me a comment telling me what you think of my blog so far . Thanks 






Autism Awareness

So I don't really know how to start this post and this one is going to be a serious one.... But anyway here it goes.
Around four years ago when my brother was four he was diagnosed with autism. Autism is basically  a spectrum condition, which means that, while all people with autism share certain difficulties, their condition will affect them in different ways. Autism effects how a person communicates with, and relates to, other people. It also affects how they make sense of the world around them.

Some people with autism are able to live relatively normal lives but others may have accompanying learning difficulties  and need a lifetime of support. Some people may know autism as Asperger syndrome but in actual fact Asperger syndrome is a type of autism. People with Asperger syndrome are often of average or above average intelligence and don't face that much problems with speech but may still have problems of understanding people. 

My brother is very loving and sometimes doesn't know when to stop. He could just walk up to someone he just met and give them a hug or a kiss. His speech has improved a lot since he was diagnosed back in 2010 due to time working with his speech therapist and other specialist people. He goes to a special needs school as if he went to a mainstream school we fear he might of got bullied but he loves it. He is such a happy loving boy and doesn't let his problems get in his way :)) 

I deleted and rewritten this post so many times as it was so hard to write I'm going to leave some links down below to some websites about autism, so you can read some more information is you like...

Things I want to do this summer

I ain't usually a very fit type of person so this summer I am trying to do more exercise, even if it's only half an hour on the wii fit or fun things like skipping or hula hooping. It doesn't always have to be boring exercise. What do you guys like to do to exercise???




Another thing I would like to do is go out more. Im the type of girl that likes to stay in the house most of the time instead of going out with my friends.




I wish I lived somewhere that it was warm and sunny all the time, instead of living in Scotland where like one week of the year is nice and the others are rainy hahahah, because I would really like to go to the beach all the time and get a tan instead of  always being pale :((( do any of yous live in hot places????

Unfortunately these ain't my legs :((  


The last thing thing I want to do is start to eat healthy. This is going to be a hard thing for me as I don't like fruit or vegetables do any of you guys know any healthy things that don't include fruit or vegetables. I love the look of all the things niomi smart makes and eats but I just couldn't do It myself :((



P.s. Remember to ask questions you want me to do in my 25 questions post. Also could you do me a favour of recommending my blog to some people you know, I would really appreciate it :))

My inspirations...

I used to not know any thing about blogging or what it really was, but a few months ago I started to read other peoples blogs and watch their youtube videos. I really love to read zoella's blog as she is my main inspiration to start my own blog. She was the first ever youtuber and blogger that I started to follow. If you haven't already checked her out I would highly recommend you do Here.




I also really love Sprinkle of glitters blog. Her and her little girl darcy are so cute. You definitely need to check her out. She has just got to little adorable kittens, aww I just want to squeeze them....



Another person it love is jim chapman. He is like the only male blogger that I read. On youtube I watch other males like Marcus Buttler and joe sugg but I don't think they have a blog, do they ?? And oh look what jim chapman said to me.....

                        


I read a lot of other blogs but these are my main inspirations to start my own blog. I really wish I had the confidence to start my own youtube channel but I'm just to shy and scared of what people would think of me and what if know one watched me??

I hope you liked this kind of different blog post and remember to ask any questions about me you would like to know the answer to in the comment box and I will answer them in a future 25 questions post:)))

Let's go to the beach, beach...

So since it's 23 degrees which is super hot for Scotland me, my mum and brother decided to have a little trip to the beach. I'm home now but I have really sore feet from the amount of stones I stood on:(( my brother also got stung by a jellyfish in the leg so that has made him in a bad mood:/ we took a little picnic and stuff but me couldn't really eat it because of the annoying seagulls. So we haven't had a lucky day really have we ??? and to make it all worse when I woke up this morning I dropped a glass and smashed it ... What did you guys do on this nice day ??








P.s. Please ignore my feet in the last picture haahah :):)

Tweet, tweet nibble,nibble

So this post today is about my pets snowy and Ziggy...
Ziggy  is my pet hamster he is six months but he is huge he looks more like a baby  guinea pig hahahah :))) he is a Syrian hamster and I think it's like the biggest type of pet hamster you can get but don't quote me on that I could be wrong. Ziggy is that big that we had to get him a bigger cage and hamster wheel because he out grew his last one. If you have any questions about him you can leave me a wee comment and I will try and answer your question...        










My other pet snowy is a blue and white budgie around five and six. He loves to fly around the house pooping  everywhere :))) unfortunately just know he isn't very well he keeps being sick, he have been to the vets three times with them and they have no idea what's wrong with him. If you guys know anything about budgies could you maybe comment down bellow suggesting what could be wrong with him :)))

summer

Since it's the summer holidays me, my mum and my brother went down to a little sea side village for a day trip out. We all went for a walk along the sea front and went to the beach. We through stones in the water and dipped our feet in the water (it was freezing). We then went and got ice cream and me and my brother chose chocolate fudge brownie, it was delicious:)) After that we took my brother to the park where there was a cute little golden retriever puppy. It came up to us wanted petted it was adorable....
