I have spoken before about the friendships I have made through blogging; about the wonderful people that have come into my life since I published that first post back in 2014. I genuinely never thought that friendships would turn out to be the best thing about blogging when I started. I have obviously had friends before, plenty of them; some …
Baby Ballerina; The Proudest Moment
Last Friday, Baby went to her first ballet class and we were so lucky to have a couple of her friends enrolled in the same class. The girls have known each other since they were four months old and are the very best of friends. It always seems strange that, as a group, we have gone from chatting and drinking tea while we …
Our Day with Mrs T Plus Three
Last week Baby and I took a little road trip to Bristol for a very special reason. We were going to spend the day with the gorgeous Amy and her girls. Amy is someone who I have met through blogging and our friendship has developed into one of the very best kinds. We had only physically met one before this day, although we …
5 Things; We Will Love This Summer
Welcome back to ‘5 Things’, my anything goes series. With the Summer holidays on the horizon I thought I would share the things we will love this Summer. Although Baby is not at school yet, her pre-school shuts for the summer so she too will have a Summer holiday. Catching up with friends We have a few dates in the diary and …
Britmums Live From The Heart
Yesterday I shared some of the blogging tips I gleaned from BritMums Live, it was simply a factual post and didn’t do my experience justice. So I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge how I really felt about BritMums Live. I have been to a fair few blogging conferences, including last year’s BritMums Live and hand on heart none of …
Blogging Changed Our Lives
I love blogging, I make no secret of that. Blogging encompasses so many wonderful things and has changed my life, helping me in ways that I could not have foreseen when I typed my very first post. I started blogging when Baby was five months old, two months before I was diagnosed with PND. Before Baby I had a job …
A Day with Friends
Last week Baby and I set off on little road trip to meet up with the wonderful Katy from What Katy Said and her two gorgeous girlies. Katy has already blogged about the day and I must admit her lovely post made me cry, just so lovely of her. Without wanting to replicate Katy’s post, I just want to say that blogging …
Picnics in the Park
Last week we met our friends for a picnic in the park; the first picnic of 2015! It felt like a momentous occasion. We have survived winter, the layers of clothes, dealing with muddy, soaking wet, freezing toddlers when they refuse to wear hats/gloves and then proceed to fall in puddles. The week before we had met the same friends in …
What Blogging gave me in 2014
When I thought about writing this post I actually felt overwhelmed and tearful. Not in a negative way. I think that says a lot about the power of blogging. I also had no idea of where to start, as so much has happened in one year and I feel exceptionally grateful. The changes in my blog in one year have …
My Story #BritMumsLive 2014 Friends, Fun and Fregola
My feet hurt (so much!) and my head is spinning. I am sitting down for the first time today and the mixture of emotions I am experiencing is very weird. Overwhelming happiness to be reunited with my little family, who I missed more than words can describe, but also there is a feeling sadness. Sadness that my little BritMums Live …
A Week Of Friends
This week we were lucky enough to spend time everyday with friends. When I went on maternity leave I seemed to lose touch with lots of my friends, who were sort of linked to work, which is sad. I didn’t grow up round here so I don’t have friends that I went to school or college with living close by. …
