September has been a bit of a whirlwind. It, as predicted, has been a little manic at times but also lots of fun including a little trip to Butlins. So, as we enter the last few days, here’s what I have been loving: Beauty: I have been reflecting a little on my blog lately and,…
So it’s been a special weekend here – Meme had a birthday party! It is the first one she has properly had with school friends and she was so excited! I booked a early slot at 10.30am on Saturday morning at a local adventure place called Brimstage Maze – if you are local to me…
I missed my happy list last week as we had a little week away and it was actually quite nice to have a mini blogging break. The last few weeks have been a little tough and overwhelming but I woke up on Monday with a different mindset and I do feel so much better for…
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…

Can you believe summer is almost finished! Its been a busy month but in a good way. Here is what I’ve been loving in August: 1 – Holidays – we have the whole month with no routine and it has been bliss!! We have even managed a few little sleep ins with 9am being a…
There are days when everything seems to fall in to place, Friday evening was one of those. The sun was shining, it was almost the weekend and, more importantly, my husband was working from home so would be able to finish on time without being delayed by the craziness that rush hour brings.
