There is one word that stands out most when it comes to describing 2018.. Change. 2018 was a year full of changes for us; I went back to full time work and there were plenty of bumps along the way as we adjusted to a completely new routine. I know to some it doesn’t seem like a big deal but after being a stay at home mum of three for 7 years it was HUGE. The girls adjusted to longer hours at school and nursery like pro’s and I adjusted to juggling a thousand plates. I have a completely new…
This post will be short and sweet – Christmas 2018 has probably been my favourite to date. It’s been slow paced; full of food, laughs and family fun. I have loved it. Life has been so busy this year so the time off work and school has been so precious. I didn’t take many photos this year, I made a real conscious effort to be in the moment with the family, the few I did get I love!

It’s so nice to get out of bed…
I officially have an 8 year old daughter! That sentence is quite scary to type out loud it makes me feel ever so old. In fact I have a 8 year and 2 week year old because I am ridiculously late in writing this post, I didn’t want it to pass by completely unmentioned though.
