One of my favourite things to do while pregnant was to look at beautiful nurseries. We live in a tiny one-bedroom row cottage, so I knew I wouldn’t be able to set up an entire room for Bebe. Bu...
I’m so glad that B. and I went out for lots of little dates in the weeks before Felix was born, because leaving the house with a baby is something we’re still figuring out. The other morn...
Now, and then. I miss my belly! But I like wearing my old clothes again! I still can’t really believe that only three weeks ago I had a baby. It feels so strange that the crib beside our bed ha...
Mother’s day flowers! ♥ Last Sunday I celebrated my very first Mother’s Day! B. made me pancakes, which were topped with lemon & sugar, using lemons from our own lemon tree. I...
Bebe has arrived! Felix Stanley was born on the 2nd of May at 5.50am. 3.5kg, 49cm long. I guess he wanted a May birthday after all! Thank you so much for all the lovely congratulations we have receiv...
Over the weekend I: Ate delicious home-made pancakes (thank you B. ♥). Finished the mobile for above Felix’s crib. Waited and watched impatiently for this April baby who is probably going to be...
Happy weekend! Here are some things that I am loving at the moment: This moon cradle from Creme Anglaise is so amazing! I think xMotherx might be my favourite etsy store right now. I have dreams of g...
We finally have some Autumn weather, which means lots of pretty leaves. Autumn doesn’t seem last very long here- I don’t think we get the right kind of ‘crisp’ cold that makes...
I’m feeling a little impatient, a little excited, and a little terrified. I’m wondering if this baby is going to be born in April or May? Whatever happens he should be here in time for Mo...
Some little snapshots of life lately, thanks to Instagram. 1) Sunflares and Autumn leaves that are just starting to turn, 2) Red toes and afternoon light in the kitchen, 3) Lunch at the Stirling Hote...
It feels really strange to think that we will have a real, live baby in the house soon. The other day B. and I were making plans for later in the month and I said offhandedly, ‘well, he’l...
Bebe has started to ‘drop’, so after a few weeks of having a really big belly, I’ve started to get smaller again as he changes position. I promised myself I would try to enjoy these...
We used part of the Easter weekend to move around some furniture to make space for Bebe’s arrival. Somehow we both imagined that our bedroom was much bigger, but in the end everything fit and t...
I can’t quite believe it is April already. We’ve been keeping organised this year with a big ‘month to a page’ calendar from Kikki K. Every month we sit down to fill it out, a...
Lately I have loved playing around with making little photo collages, it’s such a fun way to tell a story from my silly daily snapshots~ The other day I took myself on a date to visit our local...
Today I: Celebrated the Autumny weather by pulling out one of my new knitted jumpers (even though it doesn’t quite fit at the moment…) Made some progress on a baby hat I am knitting Start...
I think I’ve started to ‘nest’~ We’ve been putting off making any big preparations (like building the cot) until I’m on leave, but I really wanted to do something baby r...
Happy weekend everyone! We have a holiday here on Monday so I’m excited to get an extra-long time away from work. Here are some things I am loving at the moment: Easy-to-make baby hats! I’m going to ...
I’ve always loved reading, and of course being a librarian means I can get a little excited about books. We’ve started building a baby library for Felix, with some lovely baby shower gift...
Bebe is almost 32 weeks now, which means that it is around two months until he arrives. I’m starting to get very excited! Right now he seems to enjoy hanging out on my right side and digging an...
It’s almost the last week of Summer and I am very much looking forward to the seasonal change. I’m daydreaming about what I will do in Autumn… French toast from Big Table, how I lov...
Dear street art… thank you for making my walk around this suburb a pretty one. Dear Valentine’s Day… once again we forgot to celebrate you. But all the photos of everyone’s yu...
Roughly three months left until Bebe makes his appearance. It is so surreal to think that the little flashing dot we saw on the ultrasound screen has grown (and is still growing) into a big baby boy....
I thought it would be fun to have a final record of life with a tiny handbag. I’ve been hunting for the perfect big bag to use as a combination nappy bag/hand bag but they are all either hideou...
It’s hard to believe that I only have about two weeks until the start of my third trimester. Time is flying! I’m loving this stage of pregnancy. Finally I’m a have a noticeable bell...
On the 7th of January, we celebrated our 10 year anniversary ♥ We had dinner at our favourite Italian restaurant, then shared some delicious gelati. It was a perfect little celebration. I thin...
I love the start of a new year, it’s such a good time to be reflective, but also make lots of goals and plans for the future. It feels so nice to have the whole year ahead, full of possibilitie...
It’s funny that even though we had a fairly low-key Christmas, we’ve still been super busy. I’ve finally emerged from my food coma after all of my festive eating, and we’ve sp...
