Way back before I had children and actually had the luxury of time (and spare money!).I was all about fashion and beauty. I would spend hours pouring over glossy magazines looking at all the new trends. Looking in awe at fashion spreads which were like a piece of art and marvel at the outfits and…
Oh June what a wonderful month you have been – the start of Summer! It has been a busy one (is there any other?) with lots to be happy about. Here is what we have been loving this month. Milestones It was a month of milestones for Harri. She celebrated her birthday this month and…
