Last September was a double whammy – starting school and turning 5 in the same month, it was all a little too much for me. This year, everything is a little calmer and, whilst I still can’t believe that my baby is turning 6 and, maybe more importantly, how on earth am I old enough…
It’s been a trip down memory lane for me this weekend – we spent a couple of days in Butlins. Butlins holds so many memories as it was the place we visited as a child every year for our holidays. I loved it – the big roller coaster that I tried to get on every…
I’m excited I am fast approaching the 3rd trimester with my 3rd child and it honestly can’t come fast enough. I’m not saying that I am not enjoying my girls and my life because I am, but I always knew deep down that I wanted three children and I feel that once this baby is…
The weather is so strange at the minute one minute it is really warm and the next much cooler. It was stressful week and I am really struggling with pregnancy tiredness so whilst we wanted to get outdoors and play on Saturday we also wanted to keep it as relaxed as possible. We decided to…
I always say September 2015 was when it all started – I had privately written a few posts prior to this but with Meme starting school and turning 5, Harri changing from a baby to a big girl and, in the back of my mind knowing I wanted another child, I knew I wanted to remember it…

It has been a pretty bad week with back to school, starting preschool, work and generally trying to get back into some kind of routine we have all been really tired, really grumpy and very emotional (this has generally been me!! lets blame the pregnancy hormones!). However there are still lots of reasons to be…
The last couple of weekends have been really similar – staying local, visiting parks, going on bike rides, which have been just what we have needed. I have wrote about my girls and their bikes before – they are amazing and love going on them. Meme speeds around on her princess bike with Harri whizzing behind…
Call me disillusioned, naive or a even a bad mother but I really thought that experiencing milestones with Harri would be a little easier as she is my second born – still as precious, still as amazing but a little easier for me. I have done this before with Meme, I have tackled the nursery…
A new month and a busy one from us with school, preschool, a little trip and a birthday. I love September, I have always felt there is something special about it. I think it is my favourite time of year. It’s been the last week of the holidays, catching up with some friends we haven’t…
