The Great Blog Shake Up
Every once in a while us bloggers become uninspired and complacent, am I right? I have been blogging for over 2 & a half years and since coming back from holiday I’ve hit a bit of a wall. I’d taken on a lot of freelance work before my trip to ensure I had plenty of dollars and if I’m honest, I completely burnt myself out as far as writing is concerned. While on holiday I didn’t blog at all and it felt good, so good that when I came back I still didn’t feel very inspired to write anything other than my holiday diary. But as those posts wore on…

5 Ways I Know My Daughter is No Longer a Baby*
I’m twenty seven with a now three year old daughter. I have to tell myself this on a daily basis because I still find it hard to believe. Because it’s just LM & I (and of course Elsa) I still very much think of Little Miss as my baby but over the past few months I’ve noticed the baby characteristics disappearing one by one and I’m left with a very beautiful and independent little girl. As much as I love her developing personality, I fear that soon she’ll not need me as much as she has and I’ll have nothing else. I’m sure I’m not the only mum to ever…

Insta-Month April
Like with my Insta-Month August of last year, I’m going to simply focus on the one thing that took up most of the month, our trip to Florida, I apologise if you’re sick of it, but I’m totally not. Instead of my usual who, where, what, why type round up, instead I’m going to share 9 of my favourite moments from our trip and although I could pick the 10 times LM went to meet Peter Pan because every time was perfect, I promise I’ve picked out some other ones too. They’re in no particular order because every moment was magical. Meeting Peter Pan for the First Time. It was…

Wicked the Musical at Sunderland Empire
The day before I went away on holiday, I was lucky enough to invited along to see Wicked the Musical on tour at the Sunderland Empire. This post is long over due but because of my trip (and lack of substantial wifi) then insane jetlag I really haven’t felt like blogging but the musical was phenomenal it still deserved a post. This was my third time seeing Wicked, the first two times were at London in the musicals home theatre, Apollo Victoria. If I’m honest I wasn’t expecting the full stage set as I know from seeing other musicals on tour it can’t be a lot of work moving it…

Insta-Month March
Little Miss modelling for Princess and the Frock // A day in York with Fabia & Della // Sunny Spring Days My twenty seventh birthday // Watching the Solar Eclipse // Practicing Messy Hair Braids Elsa has become a pro at creeping // Pre-Holiday Hair Dye // Seeing CinderellaThe highlights were… My birthday as I spent it at my best friend Bee‘s house with my friends and Little Miss. We went to Damon’s for an early dinner then spent the evening drinking frozen cocktails and playing Cards Against Humanity. I loved it! Little Miss also did her first ever bit of modelling for Princess and the Frock (which was yesterday’s…

A Day in the Life, March 2015
This is my third month of doing my A Day in the Life series and for some reason it’s getting harder to remember to take the blooming photos! I ended up using my SLR and my phone as when I went out I left my camera at my mum’s, DOH! This month I documented a weekend day. It ended up being a slightly unusual weekend due to the fact my dad is working away so he didn’t come home as usual on Friday. Plus me mum was having a fundraiser for the pre-school is runs, so I guess it’s a little more interesting than it could have been! …
