Santa need some Inspo? I got you! Here is my christmas gift guide for under 5s this year.

Tackling a strong theme troubled by many parents and parents to be. 

The truth behind your second baby.

Renovating Updates & Inspo Boards ( Jasmines bedroom, Kitchen )

I am very aware I tend to go completely MIA at times and some days I update my story on Instagram more times than my two-year-old asks me questions I don't have the answers to. If I am being completely unpretending, it's more of a personality trait than circumstantial, I accidentally went two weeks without calling my dad once! We are officially three months into PP and I had my first night out. Since my last blog update, we settled into our new home (@ourlittlescottishhome) and hit 20K on Instagram! Over the last few weeks, I have had my fair share of trials and tribulations, from pest control and sickness bugs to meeting new friends and having my nails done for the first time in 9 months - to name a few.

There is no doubting the fact that motherhood changes every single aspect of your life including your friendships.  Before bringing my daughters into the world, I was only 17 and my only responsibilities were making it to work on time at the call centre.  At that point in my life, I only had a short period between lockdown restrictions nearly completely lifting and falling pregnant during that time which was only about three months that I spent either with my boyfriend or my friends socialising, going out getting dressed up and constantly on my phone chatting and planning things.  Nowadays I am lucky if I can get a minute to respond to texts or FaceTime calls from my family never mind organising, planning or going out solo with friends.

Allow me to set the scene for you. I'm sitting on the sofa and just encountered baby barf for the second time today on my yellow t-shirt. Rosie's sleeping by my side, Jasmine is playing in the background and Blippi is frolicking in a soft play. It’s 11:10 am and my triumph of the day is getting me and the girls dressed before noon. I'm drinking a cup of what was once hot raspberry leaf tea, which I will come back to later in this post when I talk about breastfeeding my youngest. It’s a dull dry Tuesday, I'd complain about the weather but as a true Scottish woman, I'd complain just as much if the sun was giving us enough warmth worth putting shorts on. I'm 20 years old and I have two little girls. My eldest Jasmine who is two-going-on-twelve, and my youngest Rosie. You may have guessed by the title of this page that Rosie is 6 weeks old now and as this is my second postpartum journey and I have plenty to unpack.
