I wanted to write down Carys' birth story a week or so ago but I have only just had the time to sit down and type... I will probably only have enough time for writing the introduction but I am going to try (full disclosure I was right, the majority of this was written when... Continue Reading →
My Beautiful Blessingway
As many of you know, and those who don't HOW?, I am expecting baby number 4. I have never had a baby shower for any of the other babies... I know, poor me! Haha, I am kidding. To be honest I have always found "Baby Showers" a bit weird, a bit too American and some... Continue Reading →

A Very Sad Day…
Today (day 5 of the summer holiday...) I'd had a fairly successful morning. Both boys were behaving themselves, we had lunch and went to the park to meet some friends.
