    Happy New Year!!!

    September 1, 2019 /

    Happy New Year!! No, I am not confused and thinking it is January 1st. The end of the summer holidays signifies a brand fresh new start for me, even more so than the beginning of the year. We’ve had a long hot (very rainy at times) summer and it has been absolutely fantastic to share all that time off with our littles. I’m not going to sugar coat this and pretend that it has all been rainbows and fairy sprinkles. This summer for me, has been the most challenging in so many ways. With each summer that rolls round our children are that little bit older, are in completely different…

    Mum Pressure – I Want To Be Me!

    July 21, 2019 /

    Mum pressure, that is most certainly a thing. I feel I need to get this off my chest as it is consuming me slightly. So, social media gets a bad wrap and I don’t think it is any social media platform that this spirals from, it is Instagram and to be honest most insecurities stem from this app. Daily I hear of people unplugging and taking breaks from social media but in reality it is just Instagram that is causing the issues. I personally love Insta but do have that same insecurity and self doubt that comes from this brilliant app. So mum pressure is most certainly a “thing” we…

    Mum Down

    October 18, 2018 /

    I had every intention of publishing a ‘What I Ate Today’ post yesterday, but unfortunately after my breakfast I was poorly. Mr K took the kiddies to school which was lovely, I pottered about the house/washed my hair etc. I started to feel a bit icky so I had an apple and a glass of water. Big mistake!! I suddenly felt so sick, dizzy, tummy pains with a headache. I had to nip to Asda for a few bits so trundled on, I wish I just stayed at home. As soon as I got out of the car I thought I was going to throw up in the car park,…

    Do More Of What Makes You Happy – World Mental Health Day – Moving House

    October 10, 2018 /

    “Do more of what makes you happy” – isn’t that the saying? It is World Mental Health Day today and this quote got me thinking. For me how I feel inside my head is not just about anxiety or feeling down/depressed, I think mental health covers a vast selection of emotions, feelings, thoughts and physical experiences. Recently (actually, for the past 6 months) I have been going through a real battle with myself. I don’t know whether it is due to the move and the stress of uprooting our family to a town that we know little about and removing our children from a school they loved, putting them into…

    Mum Life – Finding The Balance

    June 6, 2018 /

    House work, school runs, swimming lessons, food shopping, house hunting, trying to balance life itself is all a bit much. How do you find a healthy family/life balance? For the last month or so I have felt really out of sorts with juggling life, we are currently selling our house and trying to find the perfect family home so things have been a bit stressful. But, I feel in a rut with many mundane things such as meal planning, keeping on top of house work and trying to divide myself between all of the family and it is proving tricky. As you know I do my food shop at Aldi…

    A Bit Ratty

    May 18, 2018 /

    As the title suggests, this post is about being a bit ratty. I had no intention of putting out a post today but when the moment strikes I need to get my thoughts down. It has been a bit of an odd week my emotions have been really up and down. It started off good I made a decision to eat really healthy and workout lots, the healthy eating has paid off but I’ve only worked out twice. This annoys me as I feel like I want to work up a sweat but I’m so utterly exhausted for some reason plus I’m very hormonal (the dreaded time is looming) and…

    One Of Those Weeks

    March 14, 2018 /

    I’ll be honest, this week has seen tears, meltdowns, laughter, new adventures, anxiety and so much more – we are only at Wednesday and I’m done! I’m having one of those weeks where nothing goes to plan, things go wrong and emotions are sky high. I could bottle it all up and feel 10xs worse but I feel like I need to have a massive cry and then everything will be okay again, anyone else get like this? Yesterday tipped me over the edge and I needed to get out into the fresh air. Thankfully the sun was shining and it was warm, I wrapped Charlie up and we headed…

    Mummy, But A New Me

    March 7, 2018 /

    They say motherhood changes you and I absolutely agree. Since becoming a mum I have become a better version of me and I’m starting to enter a new stage of parenthood. During the early years I had no idea what the heck I was doing, I would read books, listen to friends advice and copy other mums. But nothing can prepare you for raising your own child, I was putting all these silly things into place because I thought I had to, I thought by this stage I should be doing this and my baby should be doing that, ugh! Looking back I really wish I just listened to my…

    How To Be Organised & Productive

    February 9, 2018 /

    I have always been one of those annoying people who likes to be organised, that is probably why I chose a career as a Legal Secretary/Admin Assistant (pre children). Being productive however can be tricky especially since my children started school. During the early days when I had a toddler and newborn we spent our days going off plan, routine was still there but our days were not structured. Now both are at school (one at preschool) I have to be on the ball with school events, dentist appointments, parent evenings, reading etc. I have put together a few hints and tips that may assist you in becoming more organised…

    Christmas Eve Basket 2017

    December 15, 2017 /

    From an early age my mum would buy my sister and myself new pyjamas to wear on Christmas Eve. We were also allowed to open one present from under the tree, we never had a Christmas Eve Basket as that wasn’t a “thing” back in the 80s. However, over the years since becoming a parent I’ve heard more and more about these festive pre Christmas treats for children and I love it. For the past few years I’ve left out an array of goodies to be enjoyed on Christmas Eve and the children always have new jammies, this year I’ve certainly gone all out with the treats. The Christmas Eve…
