The Siblings Project {January 2018}

Its the middle of January and that means its time for the first Siblings Project of 2018. I’ll admit I’ve totally dropped the ball with photographs this month. After a nearly  whole month of daily vlogging in December, my camera has definitely taken a back seat. So much so that when it came to taking this months Sibling photos, the battery was as flat as a pancake. As with most things in life, I’ve winged it – and in the process realised why I prefer taking photos outside! These mad three were slightly hyper and not in the mood for…

Ollie’s 5th Birthday | Star Wars Party Pack from Party Bags & Supplies REVIEW

6 days before Christmas Ollie turned 5. Having your birthday just before Christmas has its good and bad parts. Bad – when people wrap your presents in Christmas paper, or give you a joint Christmas and Birthday gift (luckily we have wonderful family and friends and this rarely happens). Good – everyone is in a festive party mood already, and you get presents twice within a week. Ollie started school this year, and so he was lucky to have two parties.  We held a joint birthday party with one of his friends for their classmates at a local soft play. We…

Living Arrows 2018 #1 Always My Baby

“You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth” Kahlil Gilbran   I can’t believe we are already in 2018. My living arrows participation tailed off towards the end of 2018, a combination of both spending more time on my youtube channel and therefore taking less photos, and also the fact that the run up to Christmas was just crazy busy for us all. This year I’m aiming to participate in both Living Arrows and The Ordinary Moments, as when I was writing up all about our year last year, these posts captured both the…

2017 – Our Year In Photos

Happy New Year and welcome back! I’ve been quiet on here throughout December, as I took part in Vlogmas. Uploading videos every day up until Christmas was hectic, and a huge learning experience. I captured so many memories and it was wonderful to take part in. It did make me realise how much I love Youtube, but I also missed blogging, and particularly taking photographs. I am gutted that I missed uploading our Me & Mine Project for December, but I literally took no family photos all month. With that in mind, I thought I would do a round up…

The Siblings Project – December 2017

This is somehow the last post of 2017? I honestly can’t believe it. I say it every month but it feels like the whole month has flown by in a flash and I’m not quite sure where it goes. December however, seems to step the madness up a level. Between Christmas plays, lunches, non uniform days, and various other school events I feel like my feet haven’t touched the floor since I wrote my last post. As a result of this, I have some pretty tired kids, who seem to be sleeping in later – yes it’s never been known…
