I am almost seven months into being the mother of three children. If there is one thing that I have asked myself frequently over the last seven months is, do I really need to go. Anywhere. It can seem like such a chore to get three children into the car, have enough supplies for the … [Read more…]
Cruise trips are popular with families and it’s obvious why – they get to experience a unique travel vacation and nothing is ever the same. The package is amazing since meals and lodging are almost always included in the fare. Plus, your family can visit multiple destinations without checking in and out of hotels and … [Read more…]
When you are pregnant and eagerly anticipating the new baby, you don’t think much past those new born days. As I write this, I am thinking back to six months ago when I was in hospital, waiting for my caesarean the next day. I dreaded my first caesarean but I was so ready for this … [Read more…]
1. Fabric stain remover. Living on the farm, we avoid white clothing like the plague. School shirts tend to be white though so stain remover is your friend. If I know we are having anything tomato sauce based for dinner, I make Boo eat her tea in her vest to ensure no stains are too … [Read more…]

My eldest child is currently on a medication that can make you more hungry so I am even more conscious than usual … [Read more…]

After they are two, I often think yearly roundups are about enough but this week, G turned two and a half and I couldn’t let it slip without saying something. If I thought the jump in development from one to two was big, … [Read more…]

I feel like the time since the last Siblings post has been quite uneventful. The weather has been lovely so there has been a lot of playing out for the siblings and haymaking for Daddy. We always go and have a picnic in the field with Daddy when he is busy. Our picnic this year … [Read more…]
