    5 ways we transformed our living room

    11 October, 202017 December, 2020

    Sponsored Post When we moved into our current house, the decor was all very neutral and well presented, which was fantastic as we could live with it for a while – but after a few months, we realised it just wasn’t to our taste anymore. We wanted something with a lot more personality, so we

    AD | Switching from workspace to relaxation zone at home with Hive

    9 September, 20209 September, 2020

    This post is in conjunction with Hive, but all thoughts are my own During the lockdown, our living room has become the central hub for absolutely everything. We have spent a LOT of time in that one room – I’m sure you can relate. One minute, it’s a playroom – the sofa being used as

    5 Easy Swaps I’ve Made to be more Eco-Friendly

    25 January, 202018 February, 2020

    Over the last few months, I’ve been making a conscious effort to be more eco friendly. We have a super hectic lifestyle with the two girls so I’ve been phasing in changes gradually over time to do my bit for the environment without putting too much pressure on us too. I’ll be the first to

    Rediscovering classic Disney movies with Violet

    Collaborative Post – Paid Partnership | Photography Nicola Jackson There is one thing I dreamed about before I had a baby – snuggling together on cold, rainy days and watching all the classic Disney movies together. When the girls were born, I soon found that with a newborn or small toddler this wasn’t a reality

    Our First Home – the stuff I wish we knew! | AD

    11 October, 201930 January, 2020

      I’ve been a homeowner nearly 5 years now with two house sales under my belt, so it’s fair to say I’m quite experienced in the trials and tribulations of owning your own home, although I’ll be totally honest and tell you it was a STEEP learning curve at the start. We moved into our

    Our beautiful family – A Nixplay Seed Review

    There is nothing I love more than scrolling back through all my photos. It’s fair to say I take a LOT (we are talking thousands) so sometimes I really can get lost down the rabbit hole of looking back through photos on my phone once the babies have gone to bed – yes, I am

    Don't miss a thing

    Yesterday I shared that getting these two dressed Yesterday I shared that getting these two dressed in the morning is becoming IMPOSSIBLE. They are driving me INSANE. Why won't they get dressed? I mean, how hard could it be to dress a small child?! I felt like I must be doing something so wrong - I can't dress my own children without a battle! But no, it turns out toddlers are just beasts when it comes to getting dressed (even when a trip to the park or a chocolate Santa is offered!) Trust me, trying to get tiny pants on a small child rolling around on their back and bicycle kicking their legs is near on impossible and I honestly, give up. 

 Anyway, when I mentioned this - my DM's EXPLODED. Turns out toddlers everywhere are refusing to get dressed. Who knew this was such a problem?! It wasn't until I started talking about I realised so many of us are in the same boat. I wonder what other moments in our day are all suffering but nothing is really said about it? Have you ever felt like that? Maybe these small moments are some of the hardest.... So, I just wanted to say if you feel like it's all going wrong, it's not. It's just really hard. Toddlers really test you, they are testing their own boindaries too. Can anyone relate? ❤️
    Happy Sunday ✨ It's been a challenging week, but Happy Sunday ✨
It's been a challenging week, but we made it - even if the highlight of the weekend was going through the car wash (highly recommend this toddler approved activity 😆) 
What did you get up to this weekend? ☕
    ....And these are the views that keep me going whe ....And these are the views that keep me going when I run 🏃🏼‍♀️🥰. 

I'm really not a natural runner, in fact, exercise in general has never come naturally to me. It all feels like a slog, but the more I try, the easier it's getting - even when I'm huffing, puffing, sweating and running like Phoebe from Friends. I'm currently doing the #RedJanuary challenge which is getting me through the month, it's given me the kick up the bum I need to put my running shoes on when it's icy cold outside, or get on the bike when I'm feeling exhausted. Knowing me and my team have raised nearly £400 for @SportinMind brings me so much joy too! 🙌🏻

As we go into the second part of the month I'm feeling like the next couple of weeks is going to be quite a slog, it is EXHAUSTING -  but I'm trying to remember that things are tough out there, but just getting a couple of minutes for some fresh air or to take in a beautiful sunset has boosted my mood more than I can tell you. It's the little things we need to look for in these challenging times, right? 😍 

16 days to go.........💪🏻

What has been getting you through the month? ❤️
    AD GIVEAWAY 🥰 So, here we find ourselves in an AD GIVEAWAY 🥰  So, here we find ourselves in another lockdown….only this one seems more challenging with the cold weather, right?

This spring the collection is filled with everything my girls just LOVE - we made Unicorn fairy doors, fairy suncatchers, wooden fairy doors and beautiful fairy flying puppets too. The range is so varied, plus there are other lovely Springtime themed products like Pom Pom Sheep and Easter bunnies too, all things to look forward to in the year ahead - oh I just long for the warmer weather and the first signs of spring blossom, don’t you? 🌸

Lockdown life is tricky but I feel like we are getting back in our groove now. Just taking each day as it comes and trying not to think too far ahead.

We've had a stressful day, lockdown chaos at home, overtired toddlers, plus trying to get Pearl to see a Dr, who ended up examining her in a tent outside, breezy ☃️. She was fine though so that's all that matters.

    Just a girl and her mermaid tank! 🧜🏼‍♀️🥰

FINALLY... after weeks of preparation and secret squirrel-ing about, Christmas morning was MADE by the gift Violet had asked about since June, a mermaid fish tank.

She couldn't believe it was hers and after unwrapping it asked to have one to keep one day... ❤️ I can't quite believe I managed to keep it hidden behind a stack of boxes so long 😂😂

The tank project has also grown, when we first bought it we decided to get two goldfish... Which, obviously didn't happen...🙈 Soon we were buying temperate fish, then lured in by the pretty colours we upped our game to tropical, added a heater...and more fish 😂 And now we've got 12 tropical fish, we have Zebra Danios, Platys, Guppies, Loaches and today we added our final fish - Neon Tetra. And we are done! I'm now banned from the aquatic shop as I just want them All!

I didn't know buying a fish tank would be so addictive. Not sure who is enjoying it the most. They are so fun and relaxing to watch.

Have you ever kept fish? 🐠
