Lottie’s First Hair Cut.

Lottie’s First Hair Cut.

There are lots of first’s in a little ladies life, first smile, first tooth, first steps, first hair cut…. Last week Lottie had her first hair cut. Only it wasn’t really my choice, it was Bella’s. One slow Tuesday morning in the half term I was taking my time getting my backside into gear and the girls were plying with stickers. Well stickers soon escalated into hair dressers. All was too quite I probably should have know, In strolled Bella to my bedroom as I was folding away some washing and said “mummy Lottie has some scissors and she wants…

Most days Maisy spends telling me all about how her birthday party is going to go and what she would like to receive as gifts from all her friends – she’s so excited I can’t wait for…

With their new A/W range now available I had a field day browsing the site. I went for three Jersey dresses that are perfect for…

Until of course I’m up an then about half 6-7 they’ll have an hours nap. Then once up I have to watch 3 of the most anoying things I have ever had to deal with – no not the children, but…
