Goodbye February

With January feeling like the longest month of the whole year and February passing by in the blink of an eye I find myself taping away todayin shock that it is now the 1st of March! February as ever has been a busy one; last month I mentioned a nasty chest infection – well it turned out to be pneumonia. Not the best start to my February but at least I got the meds I needed and started to feel better with in days. The girls and I had a lovely well needed half term break, we caught up with…

It’s not all pretty, it’s not all glamorous but I wanted a new way to write up my week so here goes; London, Work & Coffee the week that was….

Co-Parenting; Nobody said it would be easy…

It was off the back of watching a feature on This Morning today that made me write this post, a story involving two ‘celebrities’ and one baby which had got ugly. Uglier than ugly – it’s a bit of a mess. Though it got me thinking about my journey of learning to co-parent, in obviously a much less dramatic way than them but it has been a journey all the same. Co-parenting is hard, I have been a single parent for a little under 2 years now. Back when the girls dad and I decided to split I was pre-warned…

Parenthood – why the competition?

I am usually one to read and then not reply to the ongoing breast VS bottle debate. Recently you’ll have seen your social media feeds filled with the tree of life images it made me want to jump down from my fence and write this post. The tree of life images essentially show breast feeding muma’s doing their thing in an arty way – they look cool, they do I like them and this isn’t directed at those images personally, it is just seeing them that sparked my need to write. I am all for breast feeding out and proud. Never…

Being a single parent..

I am a single parent to my three beautiful daughters. It’s not something I bang on about, I have never been one to over share – ironic being as I am a blogger who shares a lot of her life with the internet but I choose what I put out there, I have control of what I write. I have been asked recently by a few people ‘why don’t you write about your experience’s as a single parent?’ It has made me think why don’t I? Is it the fear of being judged thats holding me back? This is me; I am…

Rosie – 1 Year on

You guys might remember around this time last year we welcomed a new addition to our home Rosie the little black cat. It has been quite a year, she’s up there with the most craziest of cats in the world for sure. When I was first thinking about get a pet for the family I thought a kitten would be a good starting place – quite easy to look after they generally just want to cuddle/sleep/eat they kind of get on with it themselves and they’re small so perfect for around my young girls too. From day one Bella has been…

Hello 2016

I know we are a week in and I wasn’t really going to write a post like this this year but heck I have so much going on in my brain at the moment I hoped writing it all down would give me a clear head. So 2015 was a tough year, possibly the toughest for me yet. I haven’t written much on the subject because well quite frankly I couldn’t find the words but in a nutshell my relationship with the girls dad broke down and I found myself at 23, a single parent to my three little princesses. It…
