Here is the fifth instalment in our Real Birth Story Series, contributed by the lovely Chanel Bornoff from the brilliant blog – The Mama Edit. Chanel is mum to a gorgeous little boy, Jack, and this is the story of his birth. It was the most perfect birth for their family and was carried out in total calm and joy. It was as “civilised” as a birth can be… lol… I hope you enjoy reading Chanel’s story as much as I did! xxx” (more…)
Blog note: This product was gifted to mummalifelovebaby So, it has been playing on my mind for sometime now about how we are way too dependant on our gadgets. My husband and I are both so guilty of it, and we are so wrapped up in them that it feels like we barely have time for each other any more. Right now I am tapping on my Mac with one hand whilst searching on my phone for who know’s what with the other hand? And my husband is sitting next to me with his iPad on his lap, his phone next to him and the tv on. And although we are enjoying each others company, we aren’t really talking to each other. And that’s pretty sad when you think about it. (more…)
So, we had a family photo shoot last weekend for the blog. It was awkward as hell, but it had to be done. Well, it didn’t HAVE to be done, but I had been given a voucher to have it done by the amazing and talented Celeste Reid Larkins and I was actually really excited about it. In the lead up to it I had all of these visions about how kick ass I would be. I had all of these super cool outfit plans in my head, never mind the fact that I would have to get changed mid location surrounded by weeds, enraged magpies and the occasional piles of dog poo.

Oh dear god. We have fleas. Yep, we’ve got a case of the dirty stinking flippity flappy fleas. Well, to be more specific – the poor dog is the one with the flea problem (and also quite possibly the carpet), but WE have to live with him living with fleas, and that’s tough enough. In fact, it is downright gross… Ugh, so gross. (more…)
I am so overwhelmed by fear these days. Of everything. Of nothing. Of things that don’t make sense and things that do. (more…)
Here is the fourth instalment in our Real Birth Story series, contributed by the amazing Michelle McMahon from Mushiyaki Sews. Michelle is a mum of one gorgeous little boy, and has been creating gorgeous handmade goodies for precious little one’s across the globe since late 2015! Michelle’s story is one of a normal gorgeous pregnancy, which led to a not-so-gorgeous (yet totally normal) birth! I really loved reading Michelle’s story and I hope you love it just as much as I did! xxx (more…)
I came to a realisation the other day. It was as my husband and I were tiptoeing around our new house trying not to wake the baby up from his day sleep. And do you know what my realisation was? It was that I have become THAT parent. Yep, THAT dreaded parent…Oops. (more…)
Well, we did it. We finally moved. Moving house didn’t go quite how we planned, in fact it was kinda downright depressing. (more…)
My dear husband, bless him, said something that shocked me to the core last week. To… The… Core. (more…)
I went to Sydney for work last week to pitch our new Winter collections to some existing clients. Sounds exciting? Well, it isn’t. Like, not really even a little bit. Travelling is a part of my job that I both love and yet intensely dislike all at the same time. And if you do it too for your job, you will know exactly what I mean. Yes it can be fun, but even short day trips are totally exhausting and hard work. And this trip was no exception. (more…)
