Its still just over 4 months away, but Woody will start primary school this year. Its going to be a big process – lots of things to do and lots of emotions, so thought I’d start writing about it all. Although he goes to nursery full time, he has been going there since he was 7 […]

PND when your baby isn’t a baby
So as the year is coming to an end, I want to get this written as I’m thinking new year new me (what a cliche!!!!!), and I am finally ready to write it. I am looking back on 2018 as a year which gives me mixed feelings. I have some lovely memories from the year, […]
Threenagers…
I’ve always known the word threenager, but I don’t think I fully thought about what it meant, or what it could mean for me. However, in the past few weeks I have used the word threenager lots. My beautiful, three year old, little boy has shown signs of what I looked like as a teenager… […]
Three year old tantrums….
O my goodness the emotional life of a three year old! It’s a tough one for them. So many emotions and not all the ability to be able to compute them and explain them all. This evening has been a prime example. We come in from work and nursery with the best intentions. All home […]

Potty training…
I thought potty training was going to be a great topic for me to blog about. It’s such a milestone and so many people are keen to share hints and tips that I thought I could take my learnings and inspire some other people! Unfortunately I don’t feel like this now as there hasn’t really […]
Arlo’s Birth Story
As Arlo reaches 3 months I am feeling the desire to write his birth story before I forget it all. Its one of those things that is very difficult to forget, but all the details do begin to fade so I want to get as much as I can remember now so I can keep […]
Easter holiday fun and a major toddler tantrum…
The nursery Woody goes to shuts for 4 weeks a year, with a week at Easter being one of these. When I was working I would take this week off to spend together, however with this year being maternity leave it just slotted into another of our days home together. We went to my parents […]
