Today was a bad Mum day but we did successfully ma Today was a bad Mum day but we did successfully manage to have our first meal out as a four. Trust us to pick the only day this week that the sun didn’t shine on though 🙄
Sunshine, a big cheese and my girls ❤️ We went Sunshine, a big cheese and my girls ❤️ We went to the @cross_keysmk for lunch with @winchy9 and Baby Oscar today and whilst it certainly wasn’t the most relaxing lunch I’ve ever had out, it was lovely to feel normal. 

I also just realised that this was the first proper activity that I’ve done solo with the girls, seeing as Indie was born on the day of Lockdown 3.0. It wasn’t all smooth sailing, but it wasn’t a disaster either 😊

We also have our first family day out as a four planned for a couple of weeks time and I am so excited. More plans like this please ❤️

This beautiful little piece of art was created for me by my lovely friend @hollywetherall when she asked me to be her bridesmaid 3 years ago. She said she drew me arrows because if I want something I just go and get it. 

So here is your daily reminder to go out and get it! No better time than right now ❤️

This one is so alert and so chatty already. It’s hard not to compare, but you can’t help it. I’ve really started to realise how having a prem and tiny baby affects the way they develop and grow in the early months. Pepper was born at 36 weeks, Indie at 37 and they are so different in so many ways. P was always behind a lot of her peers in size and development for a long time, and having Indie had made that even more apparent, but look at her now. Flying! 

Each child is so different, just like us. As long as they get love, care and plenty of attention they will all flourish in their own time ❤️

The blog has evolved a lot over the four years as I found my own little space on the internet. It’s allowed me to have a hobby that I love, continue my passion for writing, build confidence, meet wonderful people and even help some lovely women along the way. 

It’s been an outlet when I needed it the most and a little place I’ve found solidarity on some of the hardest days. I have so much more planned for this little space and I wanted to thank you all for being on this fun journey with me ❤️

Pepper is always copying what we do because that’s how she learns, but this was one that brought a tear to my eye 💕 

I wear Indie in my @freerider.co sling every day, so P is so used to seeing that as normal parenting. Today she asked me if she could wear her baby in the sling too and she was such a natural.
