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!
Last Friday I was invited along to the launch of the new Stokke Home collection which was being unveiled to the world for the first time at The Baby Show. We were privileged enough to have the designer talking us through the concept from inception to the final products, and I defy anyone not to… Read More
I talked about my intent to breastfeed this baby when he arrives in this post: Preparing to breastfeed a second baby, and now we’re getting closer to my due date I’ve been thinking about it a bit more! Medela very kindly let me ask their lactation consultant Sioned some questions about breastfeeding, and two of… Read More
So I missed last weeks Stuff on a Sunday post, and I genuinely can’t remember what I got up to on Sunday or Monday this week, which is a slight worry really! Tuesday – Athena was at Nursery and as Sam didn’t have work till 3pm we spent the morning having a big clear out… Read More

In the last few weeks I’ve definitely started feeling pregnant at all times rather than just when I try to bend over, and apparently I look more pregnant too as a couple of people have said ‘not long to go now then?’ and other similar things… my last update was at 28 weeks if you wanted to… Read More
I’ve not worn a watch since I stopped working full time, which was when Athena arrived. Now I tend to use my phone to check the time when we’re out, which is annoying as then I get sucked in to reading any messages or timelines that have updated. Something I really want to work hard… Read More
Sunday was a bright but chilly day, and after an early morning chai latte and muffin with Chelle we took a lovely stroll through Brighton and along the seafront, where Athena and Fizz (Chelle’s daughter) played on the pebbles and guilt tripped me into paying for them to go on the car rides! After that I… Read More
