Happy 4 Months

Dear Evelyn, March 2015 - So it's the end of March and I cant believe how big you are! You are growing into such a sweet, smiley, beautiful girl and we are already so proud of you. This month we took you on the underground for the first time. You slept pretty much the whole…

Just Keep Swimming!!

From the moment Evelyn was born I couldn't wait to take her into the swimming pool. I used to love going swimming as a child and would beg my Dad to take me to the pools with the big slides and inflatable toys! I learned to swim from an early age and have never been…

Happy 3 Months

Dear Evelyn, February 2015 - Lots of love for the Valentine month. We finally got a giggle out of you and it was the best sound in the world. You are getting used to Mummy constantly having her camera in your face and are learning that if you smile at it then it goes away…

Happy 2 Months

Dear Evelyn, January 2015 - New Year with friends and family. You are growing so fast. You are not a newborn anymore. You are showing your personality and the things you like and dislike are very clear. You like music, singing and being rocked when you are sleepy. You don't like waiting for your bottle…

Happy 1 Month

Dear Evelyn, December 2014 - You are just over 1 month old.   What a crazy, whirlwind of a month this has been! You have grown and changed so much in such a short space of time. You are so strong and aware of everything around you. You are so nosy (feel like you might…

Happy Birth Baby Girl

Dear Evelyn... This week our world changed! We were given the miracle of you! You have total turned us upside down! We never new how much we could love until we saw your beautiful (but squishy) face!! Although your birth was pretty long, drawn out and stressful (for me, Daddy and Nannie Tess at least)…

Super Mum to the rescue!!!!

So, having been on a master class course to becoming a mother (nearly 7months into an 18 year degree!) I have come to realise that there are talents that get taught along the way! Tests we must pass. Qualifications we adopt in order to gain merit! Every new mum develop these particular skills without realising.…

Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it…

Last week I went to the Roald Dahl museum in Great Missenden. What a beautiful little village that was! The sun was shining, the birds were tweeting and the prospect of visiting The Twits Cafe and sampling some Bruce Bogtrotter chocolate cake was thrilling!      The museum itself is quite small but has a…

The Land of Nod

Tired... Zzzzzzzzz Heinsight is a wonderful thing! Especially with a baby!  "If only I'd of changed that nappy 10 minutes ago" - post explosion! "I should have fed her that bottle before we left the cafe" - post car melt down  "I am never drinking again... Why is she so loud!!" - post night out…
