Last week it was Erin’s 6th Birthday. Yep, I said 6!!! How has she aged six years? that big purple baby that got placed on my chest in 2012 is no longer, although that makes me sad it also means she’s turned from a baby to my bestie. We are now at the point where …
Many times we have stayed in a hotel with Erin. The realities of it are far from what I remember being in a hotel was like. BC (Before Child) was a the exciting, relaxing, not having to clean thrill that was staying in a hotel room. Sleep was always going to be epic when your …
Dear Mum, Firstly Happy mother’s day for yesterday. This letter is here to say all the things I don’t spend all year saying but I really should. I look at you and think your pretty amazing. You always used to ask did I want you to be a mum that painted her nails and went …
There is always a lot of controversy about what people call their children’s lower regions. Are you supposed to say Vagina and Penis or can you say other things?

Erin is five now, and at the age where she asks every question under the sun. Mostly she asks inane questions about completely irrelevant things that I normally have to say I have no idea or should google!!! Thank god Matt is getting an Alexa for his birthday, so she can ask google herself… this …
First things first I want to apologise for my absence. For the last 6 weeks, I have been in a small hole of hell. That may sound dramatic, and people who know me- have seen me around and about or on social media. At home, I have been dealing with another bout of cluster headaches. …
If you have read my blog before you will probably know that when Erin started school last year we had six weeks of tears. These became less frequent but her behaviour was fairly varied!!! Erin hates change and although was quite well behaved she had her moments and ended up with 3 letters sent home …
Last week Erin decided that it would be fun to test her boundaries. Tiredness has been the main feature in this. Erin is rubbish when she doesn’t go to bed at 7. It takes her about a week to get over it. She needs sleep. This week has been my fault as we went camping …
