Books, stationery, and wellbeing
Not long before the world went to shit, I popped down the road to my brother's place (something I already miss so much) and 'helped' the kids make Little Paper Swan's Easter cake. I popped into Poundland on the way for some festive photo props, which kept their mum and I entertained too. We all… Continue reading Tried and tested: Little Paper Swan’s Easter cake
Looks like storms are coming today (hopefully not the metaphorical kind) so I'm extra grateful for the last few days I've had with Jenson. I'm trying not to count down the weeks and days until he starts school but I can't help but be aware that there are less than six weeks left of our… Continue reading A few of my favourite things #97
We made it! We survived the most depressing month of the year. I might not have done too well on the old resolutions (does one bath cut short by a screaming baby count as self-care?) but there's still 11 months to go. Here's a look at my month in photos. 1. I was gutted when… Continue reading My life in photos: January 2017
If 'look what I got' Christmas posts aren't your thing, and if your ovaries don't explode over photos of cute kids, then look away, cos this post ain't for you! I wanted to take a minute to share some of my favourite photos from the day, as well as some of my favourite gifts. Here's… Continue reading Friday Favourites #28: A Christmas 2016 special
I've been back at work this week after 11 days off so there's not been much time for fun times, in the typical sense at least, but I've got five beautiful favourites for you. 1. Etsy Made Local. I went along to the Etsy Made Local Christmas market in St Ives last week - and… Continue reading Friday Favourites #25
It's been a pretty big week with even more coming up as the year draws to a close. Here's a little look at what I've loved over the last few days. 1. Truro shopping. What was meant to have been my second 'day off' ever turned into a really lovely family shopping trip with the… Continue reading Friday Favourites #23
Woah, I'm writing this while there are still mere minutes left of Friday. I'm not usually awake at this hour to be honest but the boy slept in until 8.30am today! But a migraine last night coupled with a toddler who refuses to nap means that I've gone from being a few days ahead of… Continue reading Friday Favourites #21
We're already a week into April - seriously, where has the time gone? I've been back at work for over two months and Jenson's first birthday is less than two months away. Woah. March flew by in a whirlwind of yet more coffee and cake, plus Easter goodies and sunny walks. Take a peek at… Continue reading My life in photos: March 2016
Now that I'm back at work, I've been storming through my previously unread books and I've got plenty of recommendations. Here's a little rundown of what I've been reading lately Comic books are great for the commute because I can usually get through one per journey - no "OMG I don't wanna get off the… Continue reading What I’ve been reading lately #4
This month I actually got myself a life! Kinda... Well, my month in photos doesn't consist solely of photos of Jenson, so that's a start! 1. Jenson started wearing 3-6 months clothes when he was two months old! 2. We spent over £200 in Tesco, mostly on Jenson's 6-9 month wardrobe (and some sale stuff… Continue reading My life in photos: August 2015
