Photos

90% of the photos I take of the kids are taken with my iPhone. That’s the truth. I rarely take my DSLR out with me because it’s not as easy to use as my phone.

I almost never share any of them on the blog which is a shame because I love looking back at posts with family photos and I always say I should do if more often. If you follow me on Instagram -which is basically the only other form of social media that I use every single day for the last seven years! – you’ve probably seen the majority of the collection I have put together. From lately all the way until Danny was born and with everything in between here’s a little photo collection of us.

We’re lucky to get just a couple of hours in the evening to ourselves into which we try to jam everything or we doing nothing and watch Netflix. For me, for ages, it used to be one or the other and in the end neither were doing me any good. So I decided to focus on going to bed earlier at least three to four times a week. Here’s how it has been.

Customised stationery and waterproof sticker name tags for the kids

The kids are back at school so I’m assuming, like me, you are faced with a landslide of forms to fill in and various belongings that need name tags. Ever since Georgie started preschool over four years ago I have been using a number of ways to keep track of his lunchbox and water bottle and school bag, all of which have disappointed me. So when I discovered Unicorns and Superheroes who specialise in kiddie stationery and name tag WATERPROOF stickers I knew I could now relax.
