My Shopping Addiction – 6 Of My Favourite Looks For Under $150

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Fashion, Mumma / Dec 23, 2018 / 0 comments

Warning: No models were harmed (or… um… even used) in the making of this post. It’s just one awkward AF mum. Standing in front of her camera. Hoping for a non-blurry shot which she may or may not (cough DEFINITELY not) have gotten. But still… Enjoy x It’s no secret, but I love shopping. I always have and I always will. It’s just… that I always want more clothes than any human needs. Like, I want ALL THE CLOTHES. All of them. #IHaveAProblemAndItsHighlyLikelyMyHusbandWillWantToDivorceMeOverIt (more…)

Oh my god, I would make a terrible Stepford wife. Do you know why? It’s because I fucking hate housework. (more…)

These Old Hands of Mine

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life, Mumma / Feb 5, 2017 / 0 comments

This is probably the most random blog post that I have ever written. But it is actually something that I have wanted to write about for a long time. It is a story about these old hands of mine. Yep, you heard me, my hands. (more…)

Why I almost punched my hairdresser

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life / Oct 30, 2016 / 0 comments

So, I almost punched my hairdresser the other day. On the morning of my appointment, I was wrenched awake at 5:15am by the howls of a baby calling for his doggy. Yep, you heard it. He wanted his doggy. Not his mummy, or his daddy, but his dog. The dog who quickly walks in the other direction whenever the baby comes towards him. Because no-one likes to be squealed at and head butted when you are trying to snooze, right??! Doggggyyyyyyyyyyyy! (more…)

Holy Hell We Have Fleas

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life / Oct 2, 2016 / 0 comments

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…)

My Struggle With Fear

I am so overwhelmed by fear these days. Of everything. Of nothing. Of things that don’t make sense and things that do. (more…)

The Work Trip

Ellyn Shepherd / Baby, Bloggity Blog / Aug 21, 2016 / 0 comments

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…)

The Full Moon Meditation

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life / Aug 14, 2016 / 0 comments

There was a full moon last month. An absolute whopper of a moon to be more precise. You would have seen it. In fact there was no way you could have missed it. It was a crazy giant-sized full moon just flitting about in the night sky, as bold as brass, shining its moon face light all over everything. (more…)

Hi! *waves madly*

If you hadn’t guessed already, my name is Ellyn Shepherd.

I am a secret (not so secret) dork, who has two crazy kidlets, a furball dawggy who thinks he is a human, and an incredibly tall husband who I adore to pieces, and who is made up almost entirely of his own beard… #WhattaHairyLegend

On this blog, I share the story of our live’s, and we love every single messy spewed upon, dribbled on, or pooped on second of it. Well, maybe not the pooped on parts but you know what I mean. #IAlwaysSmellLikePoopOrVomTheseDays

Every post is REAL and reflects the grey-hair inducing craziness that is parenthood, and I hope you like reading about it as much as I love talking about it… Cough, except I never actually shut up about it… Soz…
