gingerbread figures
So today we went to Waterstones and I finished my Christmas shopping, we had a rash scare from Theo but the doctor reassured us it was a common rash and he is now on antibiotic cream. So hopefully it goes away in a few days and isn’t causing him discomfort. I wanted to relax this […]
Today was a bit manic, this morning I took Theo to soft play after his morning nap and then we went to do the Christmas food shopping. Mistakes I made It’s always unwise to drive into the city centre a few days before Christmas but It was chucking it down and I didn’t fancy walking […]
Astonish spray
Christmas cleaning-The only way to explain it is that it is similar to when you want to come back from holiday to a clean home. We don’t know why we do it but always a few days before Christmas I clean out the oven and get twitchy to turn the house on it’s head cleaning. […]
I went to bed on Friday feeling anxious and nauseous and unfortunately woke up at 5am to be really ill with a bug. After feeling horrendous and not really being able to move Saturday I’m finally feeling more human. As a mum being completely wiped out isn’t an option as you have to power through, […]

Last Christmas they actually really helped me find products to use during pregnancy and I found they worked on my changing hormonal skin. Mum life is stressful so having […]
Nutcrackers
Today we headed out at lunchtime to Notcutts, I took the pram with me but didn’t end up using it as I wanted to show Theo everything. I’d not been to this garden centre before but had heard about it, It has a huge outside space where you can currently get your own Christmas trees. […]
A pubs christmas lights
Tonight we decided to go on a walk around where we live to see everyone’s Christmas lights. I love doing little things like this as it really makes you feel festive and is also a good excuse to get out of the house for a bit before bed. Next, we bundled Theo up in his […]
family photo with dogs and santa
Today we took the dogs out to the Forum in Norwich city centre where they got to meet Santa Paws. I like to scroll through the Forum website from time to time as occasionally they’ll have an event on I don’t want to miss like this. The Forum is also the library we use which […]
