Our #LittleDiscoveries Adventure to Newcastle, Day Two
Today I’m sharing what we got up to on our second day adventuring in Newcastle. Have you seen yesterday’s post yet? This trip was all about finding some #littlediscoveries in Newcastle with CrossCountry trains before Little Miss starts school next week. We had a fab time including an overnight stay at Sleeperz Hotel. The next morning we woke about 9am. Little Miss watched an hour of My Little Pony while I got dressed and packed. It was great being able to leave our bags at reception so we didn’t have to cart them around Newcastle. The staff were so friendly and we had tickets to ensure we got the right…

Our #LittleDiscoveries Adventure to Newcastle, Day One
Next week Little Miss starts school full time. Real compulsory education. I can’t believe our summer is over and on Wednesday she’ll be putting on her uniform for the first time and walking through the doors of her primary school. She’s so ready. She’s smart, social and ready to learn. However, on the other hand, I’m pretty much falling apart the closer it gets. I have to admit people who don’t have children are struggling to understand how I’m feeling. For the last 3 & a half years, Little Miss has been my lifeline. Days I’ve struggled to get out of bed, she’s been there for me to fully focus…

Looking Back on August 2016
Today is the last day of August and Little Miss and I are off on our final adventure before she starts primary school next week. I can’t wait to share it on the blog with you as it’s a big one. That is summer pretty much over now. August has felt both long and short. I went 20 days without seeing my boyfriend right down the middle of the month which was hard. I have als been struggling with the anxiety about Little Miss starting school. The weather however has been beautiful, lots of days in the garden, barbecues and days on the beach. We also fit in seeing Finding…

Parenting Content // Limiting Kid’s Screen Time*
Why it is Vital That a Parent Limit a Child’s Use of Technology Technology is everywhere and there is certainly no stopping progress in our, “always wanting more,” society, but with younger and younger kids being given cell phones, it makes it seem as though parents are simply giving into the demands of their kids to make them happy. Parenting is not nor ever has it been about making kids happy. They come into this world not knowing anything. It is the parent’s job to ensure that the child learns about the world in the best way possible. We as parents have to do more to ensure that our children…

My 5 Favourite Character Meet Memories from Disneyland Paris
What’s that, another Disneyland Paris post? I found a list of topics I’d wrote about 6 months ago so I figured I’d revisit them before my blog ends up turbo Walt Disney World content when I return in October. For us, a huge part of our trip is meeting characters. Little Miss is still at that age where it’s all so real and magical that meeting her heroes is a huge deal. Although as she gets older rides are becoming a bigger part of our day, she’s still more likely to queue for a length of time to meet someone over a ride. So today I thought I’d share my…
