Sweets turned 17 months a few days ago and she is just so sweet and funny and awesome right now. You know, objectively speaking 😉 Here are some reasons I think so. Communication: She is talking more and really trying to get thoughts across. She’s finally started to use animal types rather than just their […]
Also tagged communication, EC, One, Playcentre, Sweets, toddlerSo, this weekend been I spent most of my time in Regency dress. This was significant for a few reasons, 1) I made my ensemble 2) I was out at both public and private events 3) I left Sweets home with Beau 1) The stuff what I made consisted of a boned petticoat, a white […]
Also tagged costuming, TipsSometimes Beau will come home and ask me what I’ve done in a day and I feel like I must justify my existance as a Stay-at-home-Mum. I feel like he is demanding evidence to show why I get to stay at home and he goes to work. At times like this I often blank and […]
Also taggedSo, people talk about the terrible twos, what they don’t tell you, is that they start when they are one. Yup, you have this gorgeous biddable baby who turns into a toddler who has her own mind and gets frustrated as her desires outpace her abilities. Throw in the fact that she still isn’t sleeping […]

So happy to be where I am 🙂 Sweets (aka Bubba Goose aka Mama’s little baby aka Spillsa) continues to grow and thrive. She is 10 weeks old and really […]
Also tagged Baby, TipsCurrently I am counting down. Not to the due date, but to the day I finish work, next Tuesday. So many things have been put off to then. This includes doing any Christmas present organising, packing a bag for the hospital, washing copious amounts of baby clothes, actually sorting through the things that people have […]
Also tagged Baby, PregnancySo, as usual, I’ve been busy and while that always led to a certain amount of tiredness, I’d say that lumping the bump around makes me a more tired than “normal” (read pre-pregnancy/offspring).
