Firstly, let me make this clear. This post isn’t aimed as a “feel sorry for Dads” post. I’m not like that, I’m not 10 and I’m not in a school playground. This is just a factual post about how life is being a (working) Dad. You know, there is such …
If you read my post regarding the best things about being a parent, then you’ll know that I said I’d do a post about the less-than-great things. As I said in that post, being a parent is incredible and beautiful but it’s also hard work. So here are some of …
I adore being a parent, through all of the trials and tribulations of being a mum I can hand on heart say that I love it. There are a number of reasons that I love it, and obviously I couldn’t list every single one down because we’d be here forever …

In a lot of ways I was very lucky after having Grayson, I had a wonderful husband and support system. After we started combination feeding, breastfeeding was a lot easier (we still had blips obviously) and in general things were too bad. One issue I had quite early on was …
This is quite a simple post for our blog, but posts like this can come in handy if you have nothing else to watch. I’m only going to include our joint favourite shows, purely because I’ve watched a lot more than Mark and I think it’s better to know that …
I’ve written a few posts about how different aspects of my life have changed since becoming a mum. However, I’ve never really touched on how I’ve changed as an individual over-all. Before having Grayson I had a very short temper, I’ve always had a very short fuse and probably always …
