This kid starts prep on Monday. This hilarious, outspoken, happy-go-lucky, classic of a kid. I had been feeling ok about it. Looking forward to it actually, as she’s been a right pain in the butt lately!! Not only that, I know just how super excited she is to go to school with her sister which […]

Wow! I can’t believe it’s been almost three years since I originally wrote this blog! Our big kids Lenny and Annabelle will be going into Grade 3 this week and we just know we will feel emotional on their first day back! Not only because we will be watching them enter their new grades for […]

The best advice I can give you if you’re planning on camping with a toddler as active as mine is… Don’t do it! It’s utterly and completely exhausting!  I’ll be honest, I’m not much of a camper at the best of times. I don’t like the mayhem of packing while the kids are at your […]

I attended a new networking group yesterday, a table full of fabulous looking women who run amazing, fabulous businesses. I thought that if I wore my best jacket and did my makeup, I might just be able to fit in… but there I was, rocking up late with two children in tow looking like a […]

Dear Anxiety Free Friend, I know it’s hard to understand me sometimes. My moods, my insecurities, my hesitations, my million and one questions. You see, it’s difficult to explain to someone who doesn’t have anxiety just what having anxiety is all about. It’s not just that I feel anxious. It’s not just that I’m stressed, […]

Today I turn 35. Growing older used to scare me. I’ve been telling everyone I’m 33 for the past year because I just liked that number, it sounds less old than 34. In fact, I’ve been telling people I’m 33 so often that I recently had to get the calculator out to confirm just how […]

It’s Ground Hog Day! When?! Every bloody day! Day after day we put our kids, our chores, our routines, our household maintenance, our jobs and our errands before any kind of me time! It can often get to a point where we’ve forgotten exactly who we are as a person rather other than just “Mum”. […]

When was the last time you did something for yourself? Finding it hard to remember? Don’t worry; you’re not strange, you’re not a minority and you’re not alone…you’re probably a mum! And if you’re anything like us then you’ll also be finding it hard to believe that it’s already May! Where is the time going?! It’s […]

Finally I have found the time (and the courage!) to write about my three birthing experiences and share the reason as to why I decided to have an elective c-section for my third birth after I had successfully given birth vaginally to my second child. What was I thinking? I’m sure many of you would […]

Recently I lost my virginity. Yep, my cherry got popped. I am no longer a girl whose never had a cleaner, but a wise woman whose going to book one whenever shit hits the fan (or when it hits under the rim of the toilet seat at least!). I wish I was the type of […]
