It’s been an interesting first month of home education in our house. There have been some hurdles and it has been a steep learning curve for us all. At times I felt like I was in danger of pulling all my hair out and I better start googling FUE hair

Summer: Loading
My wardrobe is a bit, well, black. Truth be told it’s rather boring too. So I’m going to try injecting some bright colours into my clothing collection in a bid to be less boring! I’ve had a good look around and have found a few key pieces that I think

Tuff Spot Favourites
I’m in a couple of tuff spot groups on Facebook and noticed that one of the mums from school was posting some great set ups for the tuff spot activities. These are something I’ll be doing with E once our tuff spot arrives (though I am waiting for Yodel to

Moving more: Eric and I start walking
Well, I say ‘Squidge and I’. Obviously Squidge isn’t really doing any walking, he is too small. But I am, and I already feel better for it. I’ve been walking each day for between 30 and 90 minutes and I feel more energised, and weirdly more organised in other aspects

Teething Tips
All my babies have started teething fairly early. Squidge got his first two teeth at 17 weeks. Those first two teeth didn’t really cause him many problems but now there are four top ones emerging all at the same time and it’s making him miserable. So I asked around my
