Let’s fall for this season

What does autumn mean to you? A crisp breeze of morning air, warm tones, of red, orange and yellow dye the skies, colour the trees, and scatter the ground. “Autumn is a second spring, as every leaf is a flower”- Albert Camus It’s a reflection of spring ending and a glimpse of frosty beginnings. AutumnContinue reading “Let’s fall for this season”

12 to 18 months: The toddler stage

*Swigs wine from the bottle* this will be our savour to get us through the journey we are about to embark on as we enter the toddle stage. Now the toddler stage is like taking a trip down the yellow brick road but without Dorothy clicking her shiny red shoes and singing happily. You willContinue reading “12 to 18 months: The toddler stage”

Mum guilt

What is mum guilt? Why the ‘F’ are we experiencing this guilt? The guilt starts from the day we find out we’re pregnant. You’re a hormonal crazy lady who is seconds from ripping your partner to shreds or breaking down, into your ice cream cone because you didn’t get given a flake in your 99!Continue reading “Mum guilt”

Stroke- My granddad’s story.

So this post is a little different to the usual ones I publish. I hoped that if I could get my grandad’s story out, it might just help someone else. My grandad suffered a mini stroke due to a blood vessel being blocked in his throat. This is currently being controlled by medication. For meContinue reading “Stroke- My granddad’s story.”

Last minute trip

For the bank holiday Monday we went to Minehead. This was completely a last minute decision. It was around 4 in the afternoon and my partner went “if you want to go out, get ready and let’s go” a part of me was being far too lazy to drag myself outside in front of aContinue reading “Last minute trip”

I’m walking with my sunshine

I like to think back to when I was pregnant with a big round belly feeling the flutters and kicks of my little twinkle toes repositioning from side to side, jabbing a foot in to a couple of organs as he gets comfy for the night and I would lie down, imagining what it wouldContinue reading “I’m walking with my sunshine”

Me myself and no time.

Have you ever wondered what Parents have in common? Time. I am more than positive that every single parent have used these words…”what did I do in my spare time”. Once that little sproglet enters the world, you don’t remember life without them. It’s the strangest feeling. They may have only been in your lifeContinue reading “Me myself and no time.”

Roman’s First birthday

I’m back! I haven’t posted for a few months, but I’m hoping to give myself more time to focus on my blog and to be a little more motivated. I wanted to discuss Romans first birthday party. There were a lot of emotions involving his big day. I’m not sure if it was the thoughtContinue reading “Roman’s First birthday”

The wake up call part 3

This post took a little longer to write up as I had just finished celebrating Romans first birthday. I still can’t believe I have a one year old but before I get in to that let talks about the 7 to 11month stage. This stage is what I call the marathon stage; you don’t haveContinue reading “The wake up call part 3”

The wake up call part 2

So while I currently write this story, I thought I was suffering with pink eye. I actually feel guilty now for assuming my little human let one of on my pillow. Unfortunately it was something a little worse and painful. A trip down to the eye hospital and I have Scleritis. (A serious inflammatory disease)Continue reading “The wake up call part 2”
