Half term is just around the corner, and it can’t come soon enough! Both my kids are exhausted after school and more often than not just want to stay indoors rather than take a trip to the beach or the park. However being indoors from 3 till 6 every day means finding things to entertain them with, and thankfully they’re…
We love Drusillas, it’s the perfect family day out and we spent the day there last Sunday – and despite the slightly miserable weather forecast it didn’t rain all day and we got to do everything we wanted to! I’d definitely recommend going in Autumn, especially if you have kids that can be a bit overwhelmed by lots of crowds…
Home is where you rest your head, it is where your children grow up and it is where you will spend most of your time trying to make improvements in order to help create a space you can be proud of. Some of us spend years and years renovating and extending properties in order to design out dream homes, whereas…
These two are definitely feeling the ‘it’s almost the end of half term but not quite’ exhaustion. I am too, even though I had a five days away last week! It always amazes me how much kids seem to change when you don’t see them for a few days. I only had one phone call with them when I was…
If you have kids in primary school, or younger then you’ll probably be very familiar with the PJ Masks! It’s a kids cartoon featuring three 6-year-olds, Amaya, Connor, and Greg/ They are neighbours and friends who go to school together. But at night then turn into Catboy, Owlette and Gekko, and create a little crime fighting team called the PJ…
I really needed last weekend after a stressful few weeks; comfortable surroundings to relax in, stunning scenery to enjoy and a group of lovely people to spend time with. Also, no kids! I spent the weekend with eight lovely ladies, many who I knew well and a couple of people I’d not met before – but by the end of…

It’s not hard to see why these beautiful and dainty patisserie creations are now rivalling the classic cupcake in terms of their appeal. Who wouldn’t be seduced by these delicate, cute and colourful cookies with…
A miscarriage is when a pregnancy is lost or ends unintentionally before the 20th week of gestation. Early pregnancy loss, or a miscarriage before 13 weeks of gestation (during the first trimester), is the most common type of miscarriage. But Why Do Miscarriages During the First Trimester Occur? Miscarriages in the first trimester can occur for wide variety of causes, but…
In the movies, people can happily doze off in each other’s arms and wake up in the same position, looking utterly refreshed. Not in real life! Even the couples that couldn’t imagine spending a night away from their partner usually find that spooning blissfully into slumber doesn’t last forever. Maybe you keep waking up with a numb arm that you…
There is no better way to add style and comfort to your living room then via a beautiful rug. A rug can add a wealth of personality and energy into the lounge area; it gives it another dimension and truly brings out the other colours and furniture in the room as well. In addition to this, because of the fabric,…
A very quick ‘Little Loves’ post from me as I am running out of time to get everything done before I go away in a couple of days! I didn’t want to miss Septembers update out completely though as I love looking back on them! Read I read the seven books below this month, a bit of a variety of…
Okay, I know it’s not September anymore, in fact it hasn’t been for a week now but I’ve been busy and a ‘Me and Mine’ post slipped my mind, and in fact slipped my mind throughout the month as we were so busy- this phone snap is the only complete family photo we managed to capture! Sam has been busy…
