First of all I have to ask. Which one of you has cursed my house? Because, as is fast becoming an almost weekly occurance in our family, we have been struck down by the illness fairy once again. And by ‘we’ I mean ‘me’. A throat infection, a low-grade fever and the weak-and-wobblies have meant Kai has once again [...]

Why I Hate Weaning (And Think Breastfeeding Is Ace)

Ahhhh the good old days… Fair enough Kai would feed around the clock (despite telling enquiring relatives that he fed four-hourly to get them off my back- hahaha that was a good one!), and at the time felt incredibly draining, but looking back it was pure bliss. I’d get to sit on the sofa all day, [...]

Morning all. Well it’s been an eventful few days in our house after a strange turn of events led me to start writing on a blog chronicling the ins and outs of a rather complicated online game based around the tv show LOST (which is btw THE GREATEST SHOW IN THE HISTORY OF TIME!). Doesn’t [...]

Kai is [...]

About Me…
Twenty-something slightly neurotic and seriously sleep-deprived stay-at-home mum from Staffordshire in the UK. Doing my best not to be *too* bad a mother to my delightful and spirited young son while stealing all available free time to write, think, grow and try to stay sane.
Oh and I lactate - how cool is that?
I spend a lot of time wondering what I'd like to be when I grow up and failing to figure it all out. In the meantime I think I'm just going to continue to play and dream and get covered in food, much like my boy, and I guess we'll see what happens... stick around!
