A photo of the four of us taken after a nice family meal round the dinner table, something that we never did in our old flat as it was too squished to do it really! Our new house has a nice big dining area so we can have our table pulled right out and the sun comes in through the…
Decorating your very first home is incredibly exciting and along with a serious Pinterest addiction, planning how your home is going to look also fuels lots of TV viewing as you have the perfect excuse to tune into all those interior-focussed TV programmes. Grand Designs, Location, Location, Location, 60 Minute Makeover and of course, the retro classic that is Changing…
Well this one might be long, apologies in advance for waffling but grab a cuppa, or an Easter egg… Oh! Happy Easter if you celebrate it and happy long weekend if you don’t! What’s new with me? It feels like an absolute age since I turned my laptop on, in fact it has been almost a week as I kept meaning…
Arlo had the honour of testing out the newest nappy from TotsBots over the last few weeks, the EasyFit Star. We use the normal Easyfits during the day so the style of nappy was a familiar one, a convenient and easy to use one part nappy that is as close to a disposable as you can get!
When life gives you lemons you’re meant to make lemonade, right? Well I don’t have the energy to do that. I don’t even have the energy to slice a lemon and stick it in a drink. I am feeling so run down at the moment and failing in every aspect of life. This month has sucked and it’s not over…
As a ‘From Babies With Love’ ambassador Arlo now has a gorgeous print to commemorate his arrival (almost a year ago infact!) to hang in the bedroom when we move. These prints feature the lovely bold postcard style animals that help to signify the profits that FBLW donate to children around the world.
I’ve spoken before about how much Athena loves to embrace Hygge. She’s definitely going through a home body phase at the moment and often asks to go home as soon as we’ve arrived somewhere which is not frustrating at all! Both she and Arlo have been chilling at home in their new Wolfie & Willow leather moccasins.
We got the keys to our new home on the 7th March and since then we’ve been slowly starting to get things started in terms of sorting and decorating. We have had many trips to B&Q and stood for what seemed like hours in the paint aisle trying to decide on colours. Our list of things to do seems to be…
Athenas feet seem to be growing at a rate of knots. She’s now a size 8 and I’m hoping she’ll slow down a bit now so that these new trainers can get maximum wear! They’re the ‘Blaze’ from Bobux and are designed especially for little people who are constantly on the go, which sums Athena up to a T.
I love personalised books and I think Athena likes them just as much as me! She has a new book and she calls it ‘the Athena book’. In fact we all call it the Athena book now, and I would bet money on it being on or near her pillow at any given time! Thankfully Arlo has an Arlo book…
Arlo and I are fast approaching our ‘golden boobs’ award, that’s a year for the uninitiated. It’s true that your boobs change as your breastfeeding journey continues and mine have now shrunk a little compared to what they were in the first few months. All but one of my nursing bras were used when I was feeding Athena so when…
