We had a fairly small gathering for Athena’s first birthday, to be honest she didn’t really know that it was her birthday or that everyone was gathered for her! We’ve decided to push the boat out a little bit more for next year as she’ll have made friends at nursery and all her other little… Read More
If you follow me on Instagram or twitter you will probably have seen me majorly making up for my social media absence of late on Friday night and Saturday morning! If not then you missed this delight: I was super lucky to have been invited to an amazing night and day thanks to OnThe Beach.… Read More

Today I am returning to work after 13 months of maternity leave. It is going to be super strange to walk back into ‘my’ hotel, my first baby really, and not be the boss. I am 100% happy with the person who is the new me, after all I’ve known him for a long time… Read More

Well, all of a sudden Athena is 13 months old! I’ve not done a baby update since she was 10 months old, I meant to do one at a year but by the time I sat down to write it was too late! Sleeping: through the night from around 8 till 8 or later. I… Read More
