I’ve made next to no attempt to lose weight in 2015 at all. I spent the first three months of it pregnant so didn’t watch what I ate although I probably should have! Then once Arlo arrived I needed all the extra calories I could get to keep up with his need for near constant… Read More
Well I’ve been pretty naff at keeping up with these weekly catchy up posts, but in all honesty they’d be pretty similar for the last few weeks to maybe a blessing in disguise! I’ve been more stressed than I’d like to be as I’m spending a lot of time just me and the little ones… Read More
There is no denying that winter is upon us, and along with it come red noses, colds and the need to wear socks, a personal pet-hate of mine! There are a lot of ways to make sure you keep warm at home, besides ramping the central heating up to top whack and bankrupting yourself when you have… Read More
Okay so Christmas is exciting and all that but I’m just as excited about our holiday at the end of January. We’re going away with two other families to the alps, and at least there I know it will actually be snowy and cold unlike our current balmy winter! Here’s a selection of essentials for… Read More
I’m always interested in learning about how other countries do things, and as Christmas is such a special time of the year it makes it even more fun to learn about how it’s done elsewhere.

When I was around eight or nine my favourite toy was a dolls house. It was made of wood, had a front that opened right up, with working doors, windows and a roof that you could prop up too. I’ve had a search through my old photos but can’t find one showing it off sadly! It was… Read More
Since my last Siblings post things have been trundling along pretty much the same, apart from a few attempts by Athena to inflict pain on her brother. She’s still at the honest toddler stage, so when I ask if she was trying to hurt him she says yes, although I think it’s more an attention… Read More
A couple of weeks ago I was invited down to the opening of the new Brighton Hotter Shoes store on Western Road (only a few shops past Churchill Square) and I had a lovely evening of chatting, snacking and most importantly looking at, stroking and trying on shoes! Yes, I know what you’re thinking ‘isn’t… Read More
Comfort is really important to me. It’s why I get changed back into my Pyjamas as soon as I get through the front door, it’s why I don’t really like wearing socks because I feel more comfortable in bare feet, it’s why I prefer to have feather pillows on the bed. We spend a lot of time… Read More
