Ok… So it’s been a while… Quite a long while in the blogging world.
I have an excuse (only one). We recently moved house into a stunning new flat, and due to being very disappointed in our previous ’service’ providers are in between Internet providers just now.
I’ve had a little access from work (in my own [...]
It’s the festive season, the holdays, Christmas time, a time to spend with family and friends, looking back, having a laugh and looking ahead.
As an ‘expat’ in a foreign land (I know it’s not that foreign being English speaking and all… but bear with me it’s all about the rhythm) it can be a time [...]
I can sit and contemplate this… NOW
Yesterday though…. My heart was breaking….
To avoid a long story of Doctors appointments, waiting lists, sleep studies and lots of snoring, yesterday I took our little boy into the hospital to have his tonsils and adenoids removed. An operation that we elected on his behalf and an operation we’re [...]
Getting around town with a buggy, 2 little boys, and all the related paraphenalia can be challenging. Most of the time I walk, it takes longer, but I enjoy the journey as much as anything. Today though, we took the bus.

It’s all part of the story. You see I took the kids shopping today, not the best idea, but the family’s got to eat.
It started quite well really; the boys were still getting along at the bottom of the stairs as [...]
…. Mummy I’m Hungry…. Through my fuzzy 4am jet lagged brain I hear it again… I’m HUNGRY mummy.
Daniel fell asleep on the bus from Heathrow to Stansted, not so late in the afternoon.
Did not wake up through two transfers.
Sound asleep through dinner….
Then at 4am I’M HUNGRY MUMMY!!!
Ok little man…..
I drag myself out and fumble around [...]
I am woken for the first time around 5.30 am by Brendan’s alarm, and kept awake by him clambering over me (he sleeps on the wall side) to get ready for his work day. He generally sneaks out around 6 am, and if Baby R doesn’t wake with the sound of the front (only) door [...]
