The 4th week of Colorcombo is inspired by Leon Spilliaert. On one hand I am glad I have done 4 weeks of journaling. It takes up a considerable amount of time. This week the colour is very cold and sad. It’s a fun thing to do but I am not sure if I really like…

First day of the year. This is the first time for a while I am alone in the house without my kiddies so I am going to write a quick post before they come back. It has been a very busy year for us. We have decided to move back to Darlington, put the house…

More than half a year has gone. Ya we moved from Scotland to Darlo. That alone kept me very busy last few months. I haven’t got a childminder and Juno isn’t in nursery yet. So I haven’t had time to update website etc. Apart from housework and baby duties, I have also been busy making…

I have used my new ultramarine Rawlinsonend.com and the watercolour paint from artful watercolour box in these two drawings. This is how we normally go out. As we are living in a hilly area, and pushing the buggy uphill kills my shoulders, I usually only take my sling to go out with Juno. She loves…

If you are looking for advice, you are at the wrong place. I write this blog not because I am an expert of parenting, but because I haven’t a clue, because I am so busy yet so bored. Don’t take this as a hint and tell me what I should do, what I should try,…

Hi guys. This is going to be a quick one. A few things that I am working on, or I shouldn’t be working on. It’s been really difficult this week and involves a lot of crying. She could be one minute very excited to go to the park, next minute have a meltdown and we…

Busy busy busy with kids still. Juno has just turned two and maybe it’s me or maybe it’s the two year old curse, she has been a bit difficult, to put it mildly, and I am more overwhelmed than anytime last 2 years. Still easier than the days when I went solo with Bertie and…
