A Super Awesome Minecraft Birthday!
My baby boy is 6!!! He seems to have got so tall this last year and so grown up. He is losing those last few incorrectly pronounced words. No more calling mayonnaise ‘Mellonaise’ or calling a remote a ‘bemote’. He is growing too fast! Having a baby this year also made him grow up so much more quickly! Where has my baby boy gone! I do love that he is now the best big brother ever! If you happened to see my post about the Enderman (from Minecraft) costume I made for Halloween then you will probably have guessed that my little man is obsessed with Minecraft. Of course he…

The Perfect Baby Shower
It was my baby shower the other weekend! What an amazing day I had! Was it totally over the top? Yes! Was it cheap? Hell no! Was it worth it? 100%! I decided after the totally shit year I’d had and going through the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life with my little Elijah, I would have an awesome baby shower this time around. I never got to have one with Elijah with having him at 21 weeks. This pregnancy has been extra stressful for me too. Worrying constantly that this baby will have the same genetic condition that our baby boy had. Being told that…

A Big Announcement
It’s been so so difficult to keep this a secret until now, especially thanks to my already big bump! We are absolutely delighted to announce that we are due a little princess in July 2019! In the video above we announce this to our little boy who had no idea. He just thought mummy had been eating too much food! It’s been a very very difficult journey so far physically and emotionally. Physically I have had to deal with the joys of pregnancy. From severe morning sickness starting at 5 weeks to SPD and tiredness whilst working full time. The morning (all day) sickness is only just starting to ease…

Belated Family-moon post of our visit to Butlins
So this post is wayyy overdue as we went on our familymoon in September 2017!! But with so much happening so soon after our honeymoon I have just never had a second to even think about it. I was looking back over photos and it reminded me to finally get on the case with writing about our trip. Especially since we have just had our first anniversary last month!! As if we have been married over a year already! So it was really difficult deciding what to do for our honeymoon as it wasn’t just about us really, we also have our 4 year old to think about and he…

Have we found closure? So many emotions
So I haven’t actually posted anything since the post about our baby boy Elijah and what we went through back in March. I have been having a bit of time out to grieve, to focus on my family and to try and get through the tough times. I am keen to write again and post videos as they really do provide some kind of comfort to me. Being able to just write or say everything that is flying around my head constantly actually does me some good. And if people read or watch what I post then that really is a bonus. If you don’t already know what happened…

The worst moment of my life…..the moment I lost my baby
This blog post is very hard to write but at the same time provides me with some form of comfort and relief. I have always found writing blog posts and recording vlogs quite therapeutic, no matter how many people do or don’t read/watch them. Whilst I really do hope that someone out there appreciates what I post, it isn’t the primary reason I do what I do. I like that I have something I can keep that isn’t just a photo I’ve taken here and there. Something that has grown with me over the years that I can look back on and share with future children or family members. That…
