Frantics – a fun PlayStation 4 game for all the family

13/03/201812/03/2018
Jessica, Sophie and Daddy playing Frantics together

My girls love playing games on hubby’s PlayStation 4. It tends to be something they do mostly with Daddy though. I’m not so good when it comes to playing video games! Every now and then though, we come across a game that we all enjoy as a family. We were recently invited to try out… Read More

From the mouths of babes #147 – A big girl with a special heart

12/03/201809/03/2018
Jessica as a toddler with a speech bubble saying "From the mouths of babes" and the text "A linky for sharing the things kids say"

From the mouths of babes is a weekly linky which invites you to share a post, old or new, about something your children have said. Those adorable mispronounced words, the glimpses into their imaginations, the blunt observations – whatever it is, I’d love to hear about it!   Thank you to everyone who linked up… Read More

#365daysofgratitude – Week 10

11/03/201811/03/2018
A sunset in Malta with the text "#365daysofgratitude"

For the last two years, I have taken part in a daily gratitude challenge – sharing one photo a day on Instagram of something I am grateful for. It’s taught me to look for the little things and has made me a more positive person. Even on the difficult days, I have managed to find… Read More

Do you want to build a snowman?

09/03/2018
Me, hubby, Jessica and Sophie with our snowman

The recent snow we had was too powdery to be good for building a snowman. We made the most of it in other ways though. When it finally started to melt last weekend, I thought we might have better luck as the snow was a little wetter. We had to be quick though as the… Read More

Friday Focus 09/03/18 – A poorly little girl

09/03/201808/03/2018
The word 'poorly' with a cartoon Jessica lying on the 'oor'

We’ve had a poorly Jessica this week. She seemed fine when I dropped her off at school on Tuesday morning. At 9.30 though, I had a call asking me to come to school to check her over. She’d had a coughing fit at assembly and was breathless walking back to her classroom. I agreed to… Read More

Don’t assume I have a gender preference!

A 12 week scan photo

“Oh I expect you want a boy this time around.”   This comment makes me annoyed every time I hear it. I have two beautiful little girls and I’m expecting my third child. Just because I have two of one gender does not mean I am desperate for one of the opposite gender. It drives… Read More

07/03/201805/11/2018
papier-mâché hot air balloon with Playmobil figures inside the cardboard basket

This month’s #BostikBlogger craft theme is flying. We’ve done a few crafts before which fit this theme. We’ve made clothes-peg aeroplanes as part of our Up in the Sky themed crafts and last year we made craft stick parrots. This time, we thought we’d try making a papier-mâché hot air balloon. Here’s how you can… Read More
