Posts about our family life, you’ll get to know more about us by reading our ‘Scrapbook Loves’, Everyday Us, Sunday Scrapbook and other posts. Family posts cover all the topics that don’t really fit anywhere else!
Please tell me I’m not the only one who flings things into bags willy-nilly and then can’t find them again? I was getting so fed up rooting around in the bottom of my handbag or changing bag to find what I needed that I decided to be a little more organised and keep things in… Read More
This months theme is ‘Nest’ which is something I have been doing lots of, as you may have noticed from previous blog posts! I am definitely (almost!) ready for this baby, and have been clearing and cleaning out our home like a woman possessed! I need to buy shares in a bin-bag company I think!… Read More
This week was sponsored by the words tired and stressful. My first full week of Maternity leave went like this: Sunday seems like so long ago that I genuinely don’t remember what I did (which seems to be a running pattern, as I swear I wrote something similar last week!) but I think perhaps that… Read More
The moment I walk in the door these days I get out of my clothes and bra and into PJs, being this pregnant means that even though I’m wearing maternity clothes I’m just comfortable! Waistbands dig into the bump, or if they’re under the bump they put pressure on my bladder! Bra straps are like… Read More
A couple of weeks ago you may have seen me post this video on instagram showcasing four new prints from Bambino Mio (I’ve popped it at the end of this post too!) The four new nappy prints are awesome! I think my favourite is Circus Time though even the little popcorn containers have ‘BM’ on… Read More
I meant to write a post like this at the start of the year, but then things got in the way and suddenly we’ve just started the third month of the year! Sometimes I get a bit overwhelmed thinking about the future, how will I cope with two babies under 2 years old. How will… Read More
In preparation for our new arrival I was very kindly sent a Fisher Price Sooth and Glow Owl, and just in case Athena felt left out she got one too! As ‘new baby’ isn’t here yet his Owl is still safely tucked up in his box, but Athena has been making friends with hers already!… Read More
In February I… Read: Where Things Come Back, which is very good. I also read Pretty Honest, which really wasn’t that good, very few make up hints or tips that I’d not heard of and I didn’t really like the style it was written in either. I wanted to read more but I’ve just been… Read More
This week was sponsored by the words ‘rain’ & ‘snot’. Sunday was spent feeling sorry for myself because I was still feeling like crap after coming down with the lurgy on Friday, I don’t think we actually left the house! In the morning we built a new square shelving unit thing from Ikea (annoyingly one of… Read More
My last update was at 32 weeks here, and blimey time flies! I’ve now finished work and although the next two weeks are actually annual leave rather than maternity leave it means that if everything goes to plan I have around 4 weeks until this baby appears! Appointments I had my 34 week midwife appointment… Read More
