This Life

Two blog posts in a month. Whooah there Caroline.  The last couple of weeks have been big in the world of Grier. She won a Mother’s Day competition run by Waterstones and her drawing is being used in their national advertising. If you visit a Waterstones branch they should be displaying posters which feature her […]

This New Year

So I’m perfectly aware it’s mid January. But in the interests of capturing my life in chronological order within the pages of this here digital scrapbook I’m going to need you to pretend time travel back a few weeks. Then once we’ve got that out of the way I can share Baxter’s birthday with you, […]

Good News!

Excellent news. It’s December. Which means December Daily time. Which means me having to blow the dust off my camera every day. Which means photos for This Life posts. You lucky ducks. I sort of feel like I’m standing still and just letting December whistle past me at break neck speed and trying not to […]

This Life

Two weeks since the last blog update. A lot can happen in two weeks and a lot probably has. But I’ll be darned if I can actually remember much. Grier corrected me when I explained that amber was a type of rock. She reminded me that it’s actually a fossil. So that was nice. Baxter […]

Back on it

So October has been a bust blog wise. No fancy crafty posts. No carefully crafted pieces on the joy of motherhood. Even lacking in posts which consist of too many photos of the Cameron children barely linked with non witty repartee. I blame it on all the vomit we’ve been cleaning up. I’d tell you […]

This Life

So I can’t really claim that this is a this life post from the last week, it’s basically a photodump from the last time I wiped my memory card. But that’s almost the same thing no? I mean it’s not even Friday and I always post on Fridays. Why? Because arbitrary rules make the world […]

This Life

This week we enjoyed pretending it was still summer. No jackets, no worries. Playing outside after school, digging the last of the ice poles out of the freezer. We’re going to be in for a shock when it’s cold and frosty in a few weeks, wait and see. I’m feeling grateful that I have time […]

This Life

Our long weekend was amazing. We all needed the time together and the kids went back to school and nursery after a rest and a change. And we ate a lot of blackberries. greig took the bigger to do adventure golf. i realise this photo looks like they are being tortured but i am assured […]

This Life

This week Grier has developed some serious sass. It’s one of the less desireable effects of starting nursery I suppose. She’s made some poor choices and used some words I’m less than keen on. Yes I am an old fuddy duddy but she turned 4 last week so I would like less teenage please. Thank […]

This Life

A good week. A busy week. Spills and thrills – spot the grazes and bruises. Finished off with a second birthday tea out for Grier. Wouldn’t change a thing. little baller i feel like i’ve taken this exact picture twenty times but it never gets old for me, the joyous swinging the beginning of the […]
