I absolutely cannot believe Miller is about to turn one year old! This time last year I was frankly the size of a house and boy did I feel it. I had a c-section planned so I was pretty relaxed about the birth, when I say relaxed I mean it loosely. I was very nervous [...]

Dare To Share? – Truthful Tuesday
Shall we just talk about social media? I often think about Instagram and how I might come across on there. I have quite a few followers, around about 3000 on my last check. I think for an average mum in her 40's that is probably quite a lot of followers, I think I gained the [...]
How To Make Friends
If you thought this blog post was going to help turn you into the perfect friend magnet then well, you have come to the completely wrong blog. This post is more of a me asking for help on this subject rather than me helping you. Sorry about that. I have been thinking lately about how [...]

Splendid Saturday
Saturday is without a doubt my favourite day of the week. I love Saturday as it’s the day where I get to chill out, as much as a mum of three boys can chill out. My oldest twin goes to football training but it’s his Dads job to take him so that I can more [...]
I Had A Baby
I haven't written a blog post about having a newborn and I am bitterly disappointed in myself for not blogging during those first few months.
