50 things that make me happy... ...by a toddler. Dear Mummy, I've been thinking about this quite a lot recently. What really makes me happy as a toddler? It's not the same as an adult surely?

Ten signs you're turning into a blogging monster...RAHHHH 1) Every moment has to be captured and recorded. Everything is a blog post waiting to happen. 2) Sometimes you over-share with the world.

My mummy's decision to go back to work. Dear mummy, one of the questions you get asked a lot from other parents is why you chose to go back to work after you had me. I often ask this question myself too, why would anyone want to leave sweet ol' me? Your decision has been... Continue Reading →

Growing so fast! Dear Mummy, you've noticed a big change in me recently. Ever since my 2nd Birthday I've been trying to string sentences together. Words and mumble-jumble tumbling out of my mouth.
