The playroom of doom. Literally the absolute joy and bane of my life. We are so lucky to have such a great space at the top of our house but oh my days I must have lost YEARS of my life trying to keep on top of keeping it organised {and sanitary}. Re-wind to pre-kids. [...]
{Thursday 21st January 2021} I think it’s pretty fair to say that week 3 of lockdown 3.0 has pushed me to the edge. It was always going to happen. My inner perfectionist kidding me into thinking we can do it all and come out feeling rosey on the other side. Yet here we are. Fresh [...]
Do you have that pile {or piles} of paperwork lying around that doesn't really have a home to live in? Stuff that clutters up your surfaces but if you put away will likely be forgotten about? I know I do. And it's taken me 36 years to finally find a solution. The Sunday Basket! I [...]

This post was originally written for my old blog back in 2015 but I thought it would be nice to share here too 🙂 The babies have arrived, so what’s next?

I've been trying to get into better habits this last week or so, partly to help me stay more organised and partly to be more mindful about taking small steps to better health. As work has picked up I've found myself looking for more ways to keep on top of things but also to stay [...]
Of all the stresses caused by the COVID-19 lockdown the one I was least expecting was the strain on my relationship with my hubby. At first, although a huge mental and physical shift, lockdown allowed for some lovely family time - time to spend together, get stuff done around the house and time to kick [...]
This is a guest post I originally wrote for Isabella and Us at the start of the 7th week of lockdown which I thought I'd also share here 🙂 I often find myself thinking about what a “perfect” day would look like. Getting up early, having time to meditate, practice some yoga then get up [...]
