This might seem a little odd, but ever since I found out I was having a little girl, one of the day dreams I had was that my daughter would love having her face painted and she would often be sporting a butterfly or some pretty flowers on her pretty little face. She would nag me during days out to …
I love all things photo; capturing memories through photos and also getting an insight into the lives and special memories of others by looking at their photos. So when I was tagged by the lovely Laura to share my 8 photos of happiness I couldn’t have been more pleased. I have so many photos that narrowing it down to just eight was a …
We were so absorbed in other things last week, that we didn’t think about our plans for Saturday, until the day was upon us. A quick Google search reminded us that there was a Fairy and Pixie party at our local Country Park. These are words that the mother of a girl loves to hear! Baby has a few tutus …
I have been around horses (on and off) all my life, having started to ride when I was three. I don’t come from horsey family, but horses have played a huge part in my life. I sadly don’t ride anymore for various reasons, but mainly health ones. I really believe that riding and looking after animals in general, teaches children …
On Saturday we headed to the beach, we needed to get outside and soak up the sun. Mr Hubby had been away in France and needless to say, we had missed him a lot. We really enjoyed West Wittering the first time we took Baby there, so it got our vote again. I love the pretty beach huts and the …
Last Friday we were so lucky and woke up to glorious weather. Baby had Toddler Sense in her diary in the morning, but we had a free afternoon. We decided to make the most of the weather and eat our lunch outside. We don’t normally do this, but I took her playpen outside (so we could keep the dogs at …
Today Baby turns 15 months old and she is now a full blown toddler. This month has been a voyage of discovery for her, as she has well and truly found her feet! Her walking has gone from strength to strength and she has even done a few little runs. There seems nothing she loves more, than being on her …
As we all know, yesterday was Father’s day. Baby and I had made Mr Hubby some lovely presents and we couldn’t wait to see his face when he opened them. Then, without any plans, we had the whole day to mooch about and see where the mood took us. Baby enjoyed helping Daddy open his presents. First up was the …
There are lots of special things about being a Mummy. Watching your child experience things for the first time, observing their ‘first’s’, holding them while they sleep on you, hugging them when they cry. So many things that I adore. One of my main loves is watching Baby learn. She will do something and I know she is developing a …
Yesterday the sun was shining and we were adamant that we wanted to make the best of it. After rifling through our collection of ‘days out’ leaflets, we decided on the Cotswold Wildlife Park, which is about an hour north of where we live. The first animals we came across were these amazing giant Tortoises. They were fabulous and seemed …
Baby took her first couple of steps quite a few weeks ago now. Since then she has been building her confidence and taking a few steps here and there. Usually when she is in her play pen, once or twice a day she will try out her walking legs. Her record is four steps in a row. That was, until …
As I sit here, you are asleep on my chest. A feeling of total contentment washes over me. I feel your little heart beating against mine. The weight of your small body, heavy against me in your slumber. Your steady breathing a sign of your relaxation and a sound I could listen to eternally. Your beautiful, beautiful face, a picture …
I was recently asked by Jocelyn over at Reading Residence to share all the important things in my life that are made out of paper, for her #BringBackPaper feature. I thought I would share the post here, for those who didn’t see it. I am a big fan of the internet. I am on most social networks (with varying success!), …
This year I love our tree. Usually it is just another part of the decorations, pleasant, but I wasn’t attached to anything which adorned it. This year is different, this year I love it. It is not the most well decorated tree, it is not the biggest (and it is not even real!), but we have started to fill it …
