BUMBLING || What have we been up to? We’ve been bumbling along. We’ve been battling tantrums, illnesses and just overcoming hurdles of everyday life. The ‘iPad’ (kids fire tablet) took hold and made things easier for just a few hours before the torture of taking it away hit and made us quickly wonder whether it was worth the hassle for those short couple of hours! Well, yes and no actually however, we kitted up and went out on a winter wonder to grab some very much needed fresh air this weekend. This kid needs a walk, he’s an outdoor child through and through so winter time being stuck indoors does nothing but cause us cabin fever rage. Now don’t get me wrong I would happily get out there with him even in the coldest of weathers but having a tiny one who very much dictates when she needs feeding is not easy and I admit I tend to raise the white flag, stay indoors and put up with the claustrophobia tantrums. Just having a helping hand on the weekends makes THE WORLD of difference. It was still a stress getting out but once we were it was ace! 🙌🏼🍂🍃🍂 - #freshairinyourhair #winterwalks #exhaustedmum #mumlife #toddlerlife

NOT WHAT I SEE || They see an uncontrollable child getting in the way of their afternoon food shop. - I see a child with a colourful imagination turning everyday objects into boats, cars, trains and forts. - I see a boy who’s creativity and happiness is oozing out of him like a rainbow. - #seetheworldthroughmylens #toddlerlife #creativeboy #itsaboat #shoppingbasket #mumlife #dontstopmycreativity #imaginationplay #bemorepirate

WHATEVER WORKS || Sometimes I just have to pop her in the sink to get the bath ready. #whateverworks #handyseat #exhaustedmum #mumlife

I’M NO MARY POPPINS || I’m far from it. I promise you! 🧹🧺 I’ve had a few ‘how do you do it?’ Questions recently and I really didn’t have an answer for it. I didn’t realise I was coming across as someone who had their shit together because I feel like I’m constantly fighting against the tide. However I do notice one simple change I’ve made in myself. No pressure. Yes, I stress when the washing is bigger than me and yes, I stress about the mess. But I don’t pressure myself into making anything perfect. It doesn’t need to be, I’ll do a mad dash round the house shoving toys under the table and throwing two day old plates in the dishwasher. I’ll close the door on the washing... we all still have clothes for another couple of days anyway. None of it is perfect and it won’t be until the kids leave home no doubt. The key to making it look like I have my shit together is speed, quick fixes that look like lots of effort has gone in. I made some granola bars today, quickest thing ever 5 mins tops and some homemade pizza, again speedy as F*** but if I took a snap of it and posted it many of you might think ‘where does she get her time from?’ ‘How does she fit this in?!’ ‘HOW DOES SHE DO IT?!’ Just know I burn pancakes to a cinder because they don’t like high heat speed cooking so they’re off my list, my washing pile is actually a mountain, I don’t iron, the floors need a good scrub and the mess is usually dumped in one room where I can shut the door and walk away. 😜 🧺🧹 #marypoppins #howdoesshedoit #instamums #exhaustedbuthappy #mymess #survivingmotherhood #mentalhealthmatters #nopressure #noitsnotarealfire

PHANTOM CRIES || I never thought With baby number 2 I’d be walking round the supermarket hearing phantom crying but there we have it, I do and it drives me mental! Can anyone else out there relate?! 👶🏼👶🏼 Thank you @themimicmum for getting in on the act 😜 - #phantomcry #allinmyhead #instamums #funnyvideos #babycry #motheroftwo #instamum #mumlife #babybrain #mumbrain #makeinstafunagain #instagramfun
