Three years ago we had an Easter Egg hunt in the back garden of the house we were renting at the time. It was a cold Easter and it followed a cold Winter. I watched my sister’s twins as they ran around filling up their baskets and I remember really wanting to NOT be [...]

The back of this head belongs to my son Ned. He’s two and a half and is a lovely boy. He kisses, cuddles, plays with trains, has conversations with himself and the moon that are so cute they make me want to put him in to a risotto and eat him. But that doesn’t [...]

This weekend Summer arrived in our part of the world after weeks and weeks of low grey skies and rain. And we were ready, oh were we ever ready! From the moment we all sloped downstairs on Saturday morning to the time Robert went to bed on Sunday evening the back door was wide open. [...]

Robert has some time off work right now, we’re having a ‘Staycation’. Well, sort of.

You can hear me rustling about in the background as my twins make mischief. Both Robert and I have entire GALLERIES of both Ned and Nye taking copious amounts of pictures of their foreheads but this is the first time they shot their own video. Good on them!! If you have any videos like this [...]

Hello! How’s it going? It seems like AGES since I last posted, it has been ages, and I miss you guys A LOT. My kids got the awful sickness bug that has apparently been going around. We’ve had long nights of bed changing, pyjama changing, hand holding as they slept and waking up at the [...]

I grew up on a street, a suburban street, in a house with a garden. When it snowed all the kids on our street would get their sledges out and sledge down the hill we lived on. It wasn’t a steep hill but just steep enough to pick up some speed and steep enough for [...]
