Although we have just returned from a week away with our 11 week old we are starting to think about the next holiday! This year we would like a couple of long weekends away to Bath/Bristol, Dublin and Bruges. Before we went away I read a great post by Tanya about holidaying with small children….

Tired
I’m sure I’m not alone as a new mum feeling exceptionally tired at the moment. A recent holiday and the unsettled weather means the routine Edward and I had is out of the window. He seems constantly hungry and has taken to sleeping for long periods during the day and shorter periods during the night….
Holidays and sunburnt hands!
We’re coming to the end of a week spent in Devon and Cornwall. It has been quite an experiencing holidaying with an 11 week old! However, we managed to have a great time and visited Lanhydrock, a monkey sanctuary and the Eden Project, not to mention the picturesque seaside villages of Looe and Polperro. Here…
Cath Kidston goodies
Yesterday I popped into the Cath Kidston shop in Covent Garden. I’d spotted some goodies in the latest catalogue that I wanted, especially the tin of travel sweets – perfect for our long drive to Cornwall tomorrow. I also picked up laundry and shoe bags and a pillowcase featuring planes which I’m hoping to make…
Orla Kiely Punched Stem Rosemary Bag
My hubby treated me to a lovely new Orla Kiely bag so I chose the punched stem rosemary bag. Today I sneaked out of the house and headed to Covent Garden to buy it (and the matching purse too!). Image taken from Orla Kiely website. No visit to Covent Garden is complete without a visit…

It didn’t take me long to choose a photograph for the theme of this weeks’ gallery. Today I scanned an old photograph album my mum gave me of my early years. I was getting a bit fed up of people saying how much Edward looks like his father so decided to look at some old…
Lovely Cath Kidston iphone cover
Look what was waiting for me when I returned from the Isle of Wight yesterday – my lovely new Cath Kidston iphone cover. It’s almost perfect, the only part I don’t like is that it’s branded with the Cath Kidston logo on the inside – thankfully it can’t be seen when it’s on!
The Gallery: Self Portrait
I hate being photographed. I’m not sure when it started, but when I was looking through all the photos I’ve taken of Edward since he was born I realised there were only a couple of us together. Over the next few weeks I will rectify this. In honour of the theme of this week’s gallery:…
Home and away
We’ve returned home to London for a couple of days and are now back on the Isle of Wight as my husband has an appointment with his consultant tomorrow. Since we’ve been at home it has finally been just the two us as my husband has gone back to work and we’ve had a couple…
