I know that I am very fortunate to currently be working from home. The problem with it is, is that there are always distractions. And right now, I have the joy of dealing with a potential dropped nap (it’s still up for debate), which well, how do I get work done if there is no […]
They say that having a puppy is like having a child and they are so absolutely spot on! In fact, there are times when I think having a puppy is HARDER than having another child – because they will never ever learn to talk and tell you exactly what they want! Is he barking for […]
Two weeks ago today, after a month or so of waiting for him, I went to pick up our new puppy Buster. Rehomed from Street Hearts in Bulgaria, we had all been so excited for his arrival – and I don’t think I will ever forget that moment when I met him for the first […]
We always knew we wanted a dog. It was never a question of if, but when. Now in all honestly, we were initially going to wait until after the wedding next year. But as I am a very impatient person, I am always on the lookout. We have always wanted to re-home rather than buy […]
Last time I wrote about this was just after Oscar’s first week of pre-school, and it wasn’t going well. He had refused to let me leave, I had spent the whole three sessions with him, and it looked like it was going to a very long settling in process. And I wasn’t wrong! In fact, […]
It was our first weekend back to normal with both boys having their respective morning classes. And as per usual, after a cup of tea and an early read, the morning was a rush of us getting ready and out of the house, arriving in the car park, and running in to get Zach into […]
I know it was more than a week ago now, but I have just remembered that I haven’t written my rundown of our first ever trick or treat experience. You can’t blame me – sleep has been, well – a struggle; and my brain has been a bit too frazzled to write anything. Oh and […]
If you aren’t following my Facebook, Twitter or Instagram accounts then firstly whyever not and secondly, you’d have missed this rather big announcement… Yes that’s right, we are expecting baby number two! I’ll be 13 weeks tomorrow (Thursday) and the little wriggling jiggling bean growing inside me is just wonderful. It wasn’t all easy at […]
The update from the cardiologist who has been treating my gorgeous kitty was that she was happy for her to come home. We were so chuffed and went to pick her up and it was so fab to see her. She is still very, very poorly and on a lot of medication which may not […]
I have a bit of a problem. I over-pack. For everything. If I am off out with the toddler, I tend to pack everything but the kitchen sink. I think it stems from the fact that he was a very sicky baby and I had to have all manner of spares with me to get […]
We were sent the second of our Little Passports subscription for the purpose of this review. Please note that this post contains affiliate links. Our second package from Little Passports arrived a while ago and I’ve only just got round to sitting down with Zach to review it. Life is sometimes so hectic and the […]

The beginning of the year always brings diets, gym memberships and the general trying to be healthier. I always used to be a sucker for joining the gym in January, getting trimmer by March and then stopping, paying for a monthly subscription that I no longer used. I don’t have time for the gym anymore […]
Do you have boxes full of your childrens clothes that you no longer need? Bags of them up in the loft awaiting a clear out? Would you like to feel good about donating to charity, giving another child those gorgeous clothes to wear? A child in need? One who may not be lucky enough to […]
