The beautiful, funny & unsightly truths about raising 3 year old twins & an 8 year old singleton… with one on the way!
The UK has been on “lockdown” to protect it’s citizens from Covid-19 (caused by Coronavirus) for over a week now. My family have been in isolation for much longer. For us, week 3 is drawing to a close (week 4 for Bear). Let me explain… A Cough and a Fever Four weeks ago, Bear was […]
Pets have been something that my husband and I have discussed a lot. We currently have a cat. A white cat called Nala, with heterochromia – meaning she has one blue eye and one green eye. She’s quite stunning. We’ve both had dogs before and although we both love dogs (in someone else’s home), neither […]
Baby Bear is now 2 years old (his birthday was a few weeks ago, but we’ve been real busy). TWO! How did that happen? It seems like only yesterday that I was blogging Baby Bear’s birth story and wondering, “Will I be able to love a new baby as much as my existing children?“ I […]
Today is our first wedding anniversary. Tinderboy and I got married a year ago today. We eloped to Gretna Green with the children and one witness each and it was beautiful. We are now in a hotel in London, preparing to see Ed Sheeran live at Wembley as part of our celebrations. All wedding anniversaries […]

We seem to keep jumping from snow to spring and back to snow again! Not long after my post about playing in the snow during The Beast from the East and Storm Emma, we had the Mini Beast from the East drop another load of snow in Gloucestershire. I’d mentioned on Twitter that I’d never […]
I had thought, that with a name like Emma, Storm Emma would be a force to be reckoned with. Sadly, I was left feeling a little disappointed by the storm I share my name with. We had five solid days of snow. BRILLIANT. I love the snow. It didn’t settle in Cheltenham though, until the […]
At school, the twins have been learning about fairytales, with a particular focus on The Gingerbread Man. In the last week of term, they celebrated all they’d been learning, with a “Gingerbread Party”. We received handwritten invitations from the twins and they were excited about it all week. When we arrived at the gingerbread party, […]
It’s no secret that we are a family who LOVE holidays and day trips. We love to always be active and cram as much into every day as we can. We love action, adventure and silliness. We love to make each other smile and laugh. We also love to have a little bit of rest […]
