One Of My Worst Nightmares Became A Reality

One Of My Worst Nightmares Became A Reality

One of my biggest fears became a reality yesterday, I have always worried about my children’s safety when using the stairs and yesterday my fears became a reality as my little girl took a tumble from the very top to the very bottom of our stairs.

It was early morning following breakfast, E and I were upstairs getting ready for the day. I had piled up the washing basket, the waste paper bin and some pots to bring downstairs to sort and clean as I do each day. We were just as we were about to venture downstairs, I had opened the baby gate ready for us to do our usual ‘counting the steps’ as E sits on her bum and goes down each one. …

THE BLOG WITH THE BOOTY

Each week one post which has been added to the #TuesdayTreasures linky is selected by myself to share with you all. This week I really enjoyed reading a post written by Charlotte from HappyGoMummy sharing her reflections upon her first month of blogging.  ‘One Month Of Blogging‘ was an interesting read, especially for myself as I have now been blogging for six months and love to hear how other bloggers feel about the whole ‘blogging thing’, I found myself nodding and agreeing with Charlotte as I read “Blogging is addictive, it consumes you like a tidal wave.…

Welcome to this weeks edition of #LivingArrows, I would have posted this far earlier but today has been rather eventful to say the least. I will try to document whats been going on once I have had the chance to process it all myself, that and a have a drink to settle my nerves.

Anyhow, I’ll try to keep this post upbeat and positive by sharing some pics from the local Carnival Parade. Sadly the day itself was a bit of a wash out due to the heavy rain. The kids still seemed to enjoy themselves which is the main thing.…

#MySundayPost – Rainbow Rainbow It’s A Very Sunny Rainy Day

#MySundayPost – Rainbow Rainbow It’s A Very Sunny Rainy Day

So it’s Sunday once again and that of course means it’s time to share #MySundayPhoto (one of my favourite shots from the week) with you, my lovely readers!

This weeks photograph was taken courtesy of Paul whilst out walking with the little one in the drizzle. The kids have an umbrella each, E has a Peppa Pig umbrella and J has a rainbow umbrella. However, E seems to have decided that she prefers to use her brothers brolly as she has a bit of a thing for rainbows bless her!

Happy Sunday Peeps, I hope that you have all had a fantastic weekend.…

Watching Your Children Grow From Babies Into ‘Little People’

Watching Your Children Grow From Babies Into ‘Little People’

I woke up with stomach ache this morning already worried about how E’s first day at Nursery will pan out. E on the other hand was still dead to World kicking out the Zzz’s while I slurped at my morning brew and tried to get a bowl of Cornflakes down the hatch. As soon as E was up and about we got ourselves ready and before I knew it, it was time to bundle her up into the car and take her to Nursery.

We arrived slightly early and went inside to explore, E instantly ran off and began joining in with the other children as they played.…
