It’s December. It’s pretty cold, and three days a week I have to be up and out of the house by 8.30 for the preschool/childminder run, and once a week by 6.15am to walk to work! Let me tell those who are fortunate enough to not have to be not only up and dressed but… Read More
In a bid to spend less time with my phone I’ve started wearing a watch. I was finding every time I glanced at my phone a notification caught my eye and then I looked at that, and forgot to check the time! Then the process would repeat itself and I’d never actually remember the time!… Read More
Finally summer seems to be round the corner, I’ve already got a little bit of a tan (okay, a few freckles) and have been fighting with the old gradual tan moisturisers (they still streak I tell you!) and I’ve been living in flip flops for a couple of weeks already! However I am mostly still… Read More
So it’s the middle of April and there have definitely been showers, which would be all hunky dory if a) I could drive everywhere we needed to go and not get wet and b) didn’t have a toddler that absolutely LOVES to splash about in puddles! I have a waterproof coat but it is slightly… Read More
I recently got my ‘Golden Boobs’ award, otherwise known as a year of breast feeding! It has been a fairly intense journey as Arlo has never taken to drinking from a bottle, and only from a beaker in the last month or two (if someone else holds it!) He’s also really only started to enjoy… Read More

I’ve been meaning to start posting more outfit posts for ages now, partly to give myself a reason to dress up a little and partly because I actually have a few nice breastfeeding friendly outfits that might inspire someone looking for boob & baby friendly clothes!
Although I didn’t go snowboarding with Sam whilst we were away I still needed a pair of warm, waterproof trousers to play about in the snow in, and after seeing how much fun people were having on the slopes I’m going to try a ski lesson this year and see how I like it so… Read More
A couple of weeks ago I was invited down to the opening of the new Brighton Hotter Shoes store on Western Road (only a few shops past Churchill Square) and I had a lovely evening of chatting, snacking and most importantly looking at, stroking and trying on shoes! Yes, I know what you’re thinking ‘isn’t… Read More
I have a new love! It is a handbag, finally a bag just for me! No nappies or baby wipes will grace the inside of this wondrous item! I have been looking for little ways to regain a feeling of being ‘lauren’ and not MUMMYYYYYYY, and using a handbag again after over two years of… Read More
