been a while since i've shared some links huh? sorry about that, i've missed it so here i am again!

so i have a pretty chilled weekend ahead fingers crossed, thanks to a week of torrential rain (apparently the weather did not get the memo that's it's june) we're all just relieved that it's dry enough to take gabe out to play at the park and stretch our legs again. i've actually managed to remember that it's fathers day on sunday so of course i've got to panic buy (or make?) something last minute for my pops (and gah, also for james! i still find it strange buying fathers day gifts for anyone other than my dad, is this normal?)

we're hoping to squeeze in some chill time catching up on tv when gabe has gone to bed in the evenings, we've fallen behind on so many series we've resorted to writing up a list of shows we've not finished to encourage us to cram them in before the next series arrives.

hope you've got something nice planned for the days ahead? here's some stuff i've liked and watched this week.


- one of the best shows i've seen in years, just brilliant.

- a brilliant rented home tour series from medina.

- these DIY's are fuelling by rainbow obsession!

another must watch, although i can't watch it late as it makes me so incredibly angry i can't sleep!

- trying to change some of my habits (particularly regarding single-use plastic and food waste) and this post by sophie has been a great starting place. 

- a super cute fathers day DIY!


back soon

happy weekend! the weeks are flying by at the minute aren't they? feel like it'll be christmas in about 2 weeks at this rate, gah. it's been a very gabe-centric week over here as everything seems to be happening together! his first tooth swiftly became 3 and now 4 and he FINALLY started to crawl (which i'm half happy/half sad about.) teething trouble aside james and i are heading to the cinema tonight (whoop) and we're going to attempt to repaint the kitchen over the weekend. 

...james doesn't know about the kitchen part yet, wish me luck!

here's some stuff i've been reading this week:






have a great few days!

back soon

oh boy this has been a loooong week and i'm so relieved it's almost over. our little pup has had his first 2 teeth come through and we've all been poorly with bad colds so there has been a lot of tears all round. i'll be spending the next few days with my family and i can't wait.. here's to the weekend and a large glass of wine this evening! 

here's some nice stuff i've seen online lately:









have a good one guys.. back soon!

happy weekend guys. feel like i'm finally shaking off that new mum fog and i've missed sharing these little rounds ups! i'm pretty excited for the next few days, plans include hanging out with my boys, hopefully tackling a giant load of baby related laundry (yup, this makes me happy) and seeing my family. tonight we're going out with james' family to our favourite restaurant to eat all the food and catch up with his cousin who's back from stockholm for a few days.. yaaas!

i also really want to start watching a good mini series..? any recs? there seems to be a whole lot of good stuff on iPlayer lately and i'm soooo behind on tv shows!








have a great weekend!

happy friday! looking forward a pretty chilled weekend -how about you? i'm going to hang out with my family, run some errands and maybe squeeze in an ikea trip eeeeeeee! this week has been quite manic so it will be nice to have a more low key agenda for the next few days. i might also dust off my apron and get my bake on because our apple tree has delivered a mammoth amount of fruit (enough to make at least 30 apple crumbles. send help...or custard?)

well this weekend has flown by don't you think? (i've been meaning to put this post up since friday -yikes!) today i've been catching up on work but yesterday we managed to sneak a few hours to ourselves hunting for cute plants at garden centres and grabbing a bite to eat outside whilst the weather was nice! i've been feeling quite unmotivated lately so i've written up a mammoth to-do list which has totally inspired me to get back into the swing of thing this week. maybe just maybe i'll have a productive monday tomorrow...
