It’s Harder than I Thought.

First of all I would like to start by saying that this is just a post to get some things off my chest and is in no way at all aimed at anyone in particular and I haven’t written it to make anyone feel any type of way at all. Anyone who has read my…

What Next?

With lockdown rules set to change across the UK within the coming weeks I have constantly found myself thinking "what next?". What will happen in these coming weeks or months or even years. I have admitted before that I am a constant over thinker so whack me in the middle of a global pandemic and…

Advice for New Mums

I have seen a few posts about advice for new mums recently so I have been wracking my brain trying to think of all the good advice I would have liked to have received or even did receive as a new mum. I'm sure there was loads of good advice I got but in those…

I don’t want to forget

When we first had Leo I remember one of the pieces of advice we were given was to write down memories of how Leo said words or little quirks that he had so that we wouldn’t forget them when he’s older. I never paid much attention as I just always assumed we wouldn’t forget. How…

Family Life update

Little love My little love is now 16 months old. Since my last blog about the family, I have returned to work, become very slightly less anxious and Leo has learnt to sit, crawl and stand. He's grown 11 teeth, had his one year jags and now he walks! He's a total jabber jaws as…

My Baby Favourites (update)

The last baby favourites post I did when Leo was only 3 months old. He is now nearly 15 months old. Obviously that means that we have been through a whole load more products and things and Leo even has his preferences to what he likes and what he doesn't. As in the last post,…
