Hi guys, I’m back and this time with darker hair again. I’m sorry but the blonde had to go, I was so tired of the endless roots and maintaining my mane, I gave up. Slacker, I know. Anyways, I thought I’d end the Christmas week with a post reflecting on the year and the upsContinue

A winter walk

Hi guys, I thought I’d share a little update,it hasn’t been the most productive week as we reach closer to Christmas. We’ve had sickness bugs, earache, infections. You name it, the household has been on big loop of nasty bugs which hasn’t exactly made the Christmas prep easy on any of us (thank the LordContinue

Hey! I think I’m getting into this whole Motherhood thing.

Let’s get this straight, in honesty, I’ve always been into this Motherhood thing, from the night that I realised I was pregnant. I stopped smoking, stopped any alcohol consumption and lived on mounds of fruit, veg and vitamins. I very quickly took on the responsibility of parenthood and gave up what was no longer advised.Continue

Babies first.. . (squeal) teeth.

It seems that the Easter bunny brought with it not just chocolate and candy, but something a bit more sentimental, our first two teeth! I’m sure those first teeth bring the same bout of excitement to all parents around the globe. You must excuse me if this isn’t your cup of tea, I tend toContinue

Helping local business. A home photography session.

I recently stumbled across a photographer on the local Facebook blog page for Aberdeen City who was looking to take some photographs to help build her portfolio. The post instantly caught my eye and before I knew it I had sent the woman a message to request photographs of my baby girl, now six months.Continue

Things that go bump in the night.

I’d always said that my baby would never fall out the bed and how crazy that even just the thought of it was. That was until early Sunday morning, we woke with a crash, bang and cries from Eleanor who was wedged down the side of the bed. Yep, you read that correct. Our firstContinue

Motherhood. Finding myself through creativity and balance.

As you will be aware, I have began preparing and planning for my Wedding day. Upon doing so, making up lists, gathering material and fabrics.. It has all led to some new found and very welcome creativity. Who knew? Having finished the whole seven seasons of Gilmore Girls, I was on the hunt for aContinue

Reflecting on the past, working for the present. Cheers to 2017.

As we reach the end of another year, I wave goodbye to what seems an era. I can’t help but to think that 2017 has brought so much good to my family and it has been a year of some very important firsts. First trip to the States, the first time I practiced yoga,  firstContinue

Maternity leave and Motherhood. Where dreamy expectations meet reality.

The illusion of Motherhood. Call me naive but I had great hopes for my spell off work on maternity leave. Maybe, I am just too new at this whole baby game and Motherhood to understand exactly how much work a newborn entails and how little time there is left for leisure. Perhaps if I hadContinue

Eleanor Paisley Ross – Through the lens. Week one.

I have chosen to share some of my favourite photographs of Eleanor in her first week as a newborn. I couldn’t wish for a better baby, what a little gem. Yes, she cries. Yes, I have had sleepless nights but that’s all part of the package and the fun. I couldn’t have wished for aContinue
