How was your bank holiday weekend? Ours didn’t really go to plan. E started being ill in the early hours of Friday. She had a fever and just wouldn’t settle. As Friday went on she started to develop a rash and was sick all over us both (I think it was more because she got […]

If your kids love Lego, they’ll love the Legoland Windsor hotel. I mean what’s not to love about a Lego-themed hotel? There is Lego everywhere, literally. Our 4 year old loved it, in fact, she said she wanted to stay forever. Combining a stay here with a day in Legoland Windsor is a fantastic UK […]

A few weeks back we were sent this adorable children’s book. Ella who? Linda Ashman, Sara Sanchez. F has fallen in love with it. Every time we read it she requests we read it again straight away. And for a while afterwards, she’ll be saying “Ella who?” When a new family move into the neighbourhood, […]

I switched on the radio on Tuesday morning and I could instantly tell by the tone of Chris Evans that something bad had happened. Then I heard Manchester, panicked and did a quick Google search. At the time my husband was […]

So here we are, 11 months already. E is getting more and more interactive all the time and less and less like a baby. Except for her sleep, that is still very much like a baby. Appearance wise she looks less like F at this age than when she was younger. E looks more like […]

Wow, what a week we’ve had. It started last Friday with an impromptu day out, just me and the girls. The weather was sunny and I’d been meaning to try a forest playgroup in the next town. After playgroup, we had a picnic at a national trust property nearby. F had a ball climbing this […]

This month I’m using photos from Saturday and Sunday in my home life project May. Weather wise they couldn’t have been more different. Saturday was cold and grey. Sunday was warm and sunny. I started taking my photos on Saturday but when I downloaded them I wasn’t happy with most of them. So I started […]
