Last year Sam did Movember properly, that is he ended the month looking like this: This year he decided against doing that (hurrah!) and decided instead to just maintain his beard and ‘tache, then at the end of the month get rid of the ‘tache completely, preferring to keep his beard because he looks like an overgrown teenager with a…
Last night the laptop stayed off, I had a nice weekend full of people and friends and family and decided to just chill out when I got home last night, so this Stuff on a Sunday post is a day late, oh well! Last week was pretty much a write off in most ways anyway, I can’t actually remember…
Last Friday I threw caution to the wind and decided to walk to park with Athena, instead of pushing her in the buggy or popping her in the mei-tai carrier. I’m not sure why I decided it was the right time, but we had an afternoon to kill so I went for it! The park is about a 5 minute…
Last Wednesday was an ordinary day for me, until I finished work for the day and headed to Shine, a hairdressers in Brighton’s North Laine to have three quarters of my hair chopped off for a hugely good cause. It has been sent off to the Little Princess Trust to be turned into a wig for a little girl or…
I think it’s safe to say winter has arrived in all its red nosed, foot stamping glory! I’m happy about it because it means bigger jumpers, scarves and a nice thick parka when I’m outside. Candles, fairy lights, blankets and mugs of hot drink are all in abundance at home, and Athena might even be wearing a festive Jumper…
PG Tips have developed a pretty spot on quiz to help you discover your ‘personalitea’, take the quiz here to find out yours! Mine was pretty spot on with ‘The Rich one’ (sadly in tea tastes rather than actual wealth!) but there is a whole amazing range of teas to suit every tea-taste in their Premium Range. I cannot…
Who doesn’t like getting parcels in the post? Project B is a lovely monthly subscription box to take you through your pregnancy from month three until the birth of your baby. Each box is designed to see you through the relevant month of your pregnancy with items to help you keep healthy and prepare for the new arrival! All the…
I’m patting myself on the back with these ‘Stuff on a Sunday’ posts, it’s nice to sit and think about the week just gone and have a bit of a visual diary of the week to look back on! This week has been more hectic than most for us, Monday was our second wedding anniversary, and our 20 week scan!…
In my opinion the men in my life are the hardest people to buy for. Thankfully there are very few of them, and I have already bought and given Sam his Christmas present of a new Smart TV already as it was too big to hide anywhere in the house without him seeing! So for this male orientated gift guide…
The nights are getting darker and colder, and the mornings are just grim but since giving Sam his Christmas present of a new Smart TV for the bedroom early this year we’re all spending a lot more time in bed, even if it is watching Cbeebies with a certain someone first thing in the morning! Recently The French Bedroom…
I have had long hair for as long as I can remember, I think my last above the shoulders haircut was when I was 18. There is a post here showing my previous hair styles over the years (green, plaited extensions and ombre to name a few!) if you’re interested! Above was my hair in August… it’s a bit longer…
At the moment we don’t have a playroom, but hopefully when we move to a bigger house we will do! Just because we don’t have one doesn’t mean I don’t spend a lot of time dreaming about what the ideal playroom would look like for us, especially as I put all Athena’s toys away of an evening once she’s gone…
