Photo Projects Him & Her #5 – A photo project Posted on February 26, 2015August 13, 2021 By Becky He has absolutely loved the flurries of snowfall we’ve had lately, running up and down the garden pretending to be a train in the snow. She has been a cheeky, giggling, monkey-child lately, who clambers onto our backs, whenever we are in reach and won’t let go. A… Read more
Family Diary Things that have made me happy lately Posted on February 21, 2015August 13, 2021 By Becky This week both Freddie and Sasha have been off preschool for half term, and for the most part it’s been lovely- we’ve had a few trips out but I’d left pretty much every other day for just chilling and pottering at home. They ‘do’ so much during term time, that… Read more
Family Diary Things that have made me happy this week Posted on February 3, 2015August 13, 2021 By Becky After a bit of a sluggish start last week and feeling a little grumpy (hello, hormones!) and unmotivated (my poor blog has suffered a bit since Christmas), I actually ended up having a really good back-end of the week. This is certainly due to having more time to work, plus… Read more

I am loving the new, sleek look, although knowing me I will probably end up tweaking it a few more times before I… Read more
Photo Projects Him and Her #3 Posted on January 19, 2015August 13, 2021 By Becky When his sister asks to paint, he will often claim he doesn’t want to do any, yet always stands by her side and joins in, getting very messy in the process! She is now the perfect height for their toy kitchen, when it only seems like yesterday that she could… Read more
Freddie Siblings – January Posted on January 15, 2015August 13, 2021 By Becky This is a big month for these two sibling-wise. Sasha started her first days at preschool with Freddie this week, joining him for 2 afternoons, and then they both do one morning together. She is doing well so far, and we’ve been especially proud of how F has looked after… Read more
Photo Projects Him and Her #2 Posted on January 13, 2015August 13, 2021 By Becky He loves going down the curly-wurly slide, again and again and again, he’s such an ‘outdoorsy’ little boy who needs to get out and about to burn off excess energy! She has got back into all things drawing and crafty after the Christmas lull, and loves to to copy her… Read more
