The Perfect January Blues Break in London*
Today the weather is continuing to be absolutely miserable so as you can imaging the January Blues have well and truly set in. Did you know that the January Blues are actually a thing? I could go into the statistics but while researching them I found that they were pretty morbid so lets leave that out. For me, the best thing is a new trip on the horizon. I mean obviously the actual going on the trip is the best part, but I really do love the planning side too. Of course, not everyone can afford to book a trip abroad right off the back of the expense of Christmas…

Little Miss Cosplays Part Four
Today we attempted to take some more photos of Little Miss cosplaying. It’s really hard this time a year because of how dark my sitting room is where I usually take the photos. In fact, today especially it’s a no go due to the storm that has been raging for the past two days. So I cleared a space in the kitchen and managed to get some. I’m not completely happy with them but we did get some that were too adorable not to share. I’m really hoping that once the weather improves we can do a few outdoor photoshoots over the next year and maybe even some of our…

2016 New Year Resolutions & Goals
Day two of 2016 and it’s time to really tackle those New Years resolutions and goals. I’m covering both because a resolution is technically something you resolve to change for the better or an act of self improvement such as stopping biting nails or giving up alcohol. And yes, I do have a few of those. But I have more goals for this year, things I want to achieve and I want to make a point of sharing those too, plus the goals are things that seem to feel less of a chore! Starting with my resolutions; Loose Weight & Eat More Healthy I’m reaching that point where I’m really…

2016 New (Blogging) Beginnings
Firstly, HAPPY NEW YEAR! From my family to yours. I wish you health, wealth and happiness for the next 366 days. I’m deviating away from my usual New Year post (although it may come tomorrow) to talk about blog stuff. Today Cocktails in Teacups is being RELAUNCHED! From now on the main focus of this blog will be be on Disney, Life, Travel and Parenting.. with a few other subjects thrown in for good measure. As much as I desperately wanted to focus on fashion and beauty, I just know neither of them are a strong subject for me. The blog has always been lifestyle based, but for the first…

12 Months of Little Miss
And thus my round up posts begin. Today I’m starting with a picture from each of the past 12 months of Little Miss. I would say this is the year she transitioned fully from a baby to a little girl. She started to learn to write her own name, she became fully toilet trained even on holiday, her speech and understanding of the world came on leaps and bounds. She started to develope a real personality with her own likes and dislikes. She got her first crush, she made some real friends and she fell completely in love with Disney World. I won’t lie, putting together these little picture collages…

Fun Things To Do With Younger Children*
There are a lot of things that I have learnt since becoming a mother. There are two things that stand out to me, though. One is patience and knowing that one little person is completely dependent on me. It can be quite an overwhelming thought when I say it like that! The other thing that stands out to me is that time flies. It zooms by and I can hardly believe it. It doesn’t feel like long ago that I was pregnant, buying all sorts from the baby store and then bringing home my new baby. For a little bit of a sentimental post, I just thought I would share…
