Well it's that time of year again! The time of year i'm not keen on. I didn't even like it that much when I was younger but maybe I did like getting all the sweets! However, the past few years I think Halloween has changed so much. I remember cutting a hole in a bin bag and wearing tha…

With just less than 2 months to go until Christmas, most people are either sorted for Christmas, starting or planning what to get for the kids. I've nearly finished, still got a bit to go but nearly there after a few more shopping trips. I love first Christmases and I hope to experience that in…

If you have been following my blog since I started it then you might know that I do Slimming World. I've been struggling for quite a while now but this week I have really put my head down and concentrated on it. 2 weeks ago I got my 3.5 stone!! But I was off to Chester for the night with my pa…

I was asked by Catriona if I would make some Cupcakes for my nephews first birthday party. Of course I said yes! I haven't baked cakes for a while, in fact the last cake I baked was for my Taid's 60th which was in July. I'd been away with my partner for the night so when I came back in…

When I was pregnant with Elliw I always wondered what kind of personality she would have and if her and Mia would be similar or totally different. From when she was born she was totally different to Mia. She took roughly 7-8 months until she slept for a full night, she would cry if she was held or …

In the weeks time, on the first weekend in November me and my partner have decided we are going to go out for the day to Ikea! Hopefully we can finish nearly all of our Christmas shopping then too. We really want to get the living room and our bedroom sorted out by Christmas time. Our bedroom is de…

Last week of school for the kids this week until Half Term next week! We haven't got much things planned yet at the moment because the weather is a bit disappointing however we have been given tickets to go to a theme park and the review will be up for you all too see soon! I'm quite lucky …

Whether your a single parent or weather your a couple with a child/children, every single parent deserves a break. Whether it is a break on your own in the evening/day or going away for a night or two as a couple or with a friend. As much as I love my children I don't understand how some parent…

Happy First Birthday to my Beautiful Nephew, Osian Wyn!

I can't belive a year has gone by already. I don't see you as often as I like since we live quite far-ish from each other but I do try to see you as often as I can and your Mammy comes up here when she can too! Such a special little bo…

As we all know Christmas will be here before we know it! I love dressing my girls up in nice dresses or even Christmas dresses so I thought I would give one lucky reader a chance to win one of the outfits shown below in the photo. All clothing is from NEXT so get entering to win one of their beauti…

The last time me and Iwan went on a break for a night in a hotel was when I was pregnant (early weeks) with Elliw and that was back in 2011. We went to Blackpool for my birthday! We couldn't do much as I used to get terrible nausea and pain every evening. Over last weekend just been we went aw…

I was brought up in a bilingual family. My Taid is fluent welsh and even though my Dad is fluent welsh, we all spoke English at home and to this day I have no idea why! But I always speak Welsh to my Taid. Ever since I fell pregnant with Mia I knew I wanted her first language to be Welsh but also …

I'm so excited for Christmas this year, but before that it is Mia's 5th Birthday on the 5th of December! I'm really excited and I cant wait to see her face. I've been trying to think what we can do for her birthday. I wanted something different so I have decided to have a small bir…

We have had such a lovely summer this year in the UK and we all know the weather has turned to the worst the past few weeks. Christmas time can be one of the busiest times on the road with people wanting to do their Christmas shopping. Some people stay local and shop in the local towns and some pe…

I can't believe it isn't long until Elliw turns 3 years old! Where have these months/years gone? Soon I will be planning Elliw's birthday. I'm so proud on how she is growing up to be a little lady even though she can be a right little terror at times too.

Dear Elliw,
I'm writi…

3 years ago to this date I moved in with the love of my life (as cheesy as it sounds!). I couldn't of asked for a better partner and father to my kids (Step-father to Mia). I actually remember feeling so stressed as I hadn't even finished packing everything ready to move. My Dad was a littl…
