  • If I wear pastels and paint my nails in Spring colours will the weather cheer up?! 💕☀️🌈🤞🏻 I did my own nails today, don’t look too closely though as I’m no expert and they’re not the best, but the girls thought ‘they were amazing’ (in their own words) and they make me happy. Ellis wasn’t bothered in the slightest 🤷🏼‍♀️😆 #newnails #essie #essiepolish #nailinspo #nailinspiration
  • Not going to lie I’m really excited about getting back to a routine tomorrow (if slightly terrified about the school run)! Ellis and I have baby massage tomorrow morning and then I’m planning on enjoying baby cuddles and watching Netflix 👍🏻 I’ve been told I MUST watch The Split second series but what else should I be watching before the newborn sleepy days are over?!

  • You’re stronger than you think (even on two hours sleep) 💪🏻❤️⭐️ A lovely friend (@sarahparkerpics ) left a little goodie bag with prosecco, flowers, chocolates and a card with the quote above on my doorstep tonight. It was a timely reminder after a crazy week with my three that I am stronger than I think! The girls may have eaten more pasta than usual, we didn’t do very much, Ellis was left a bit more than normal and there were some stressful moments but I managed to keep all three happy, fed and watered (or milked). Here’s to all the Mamas juggling this crazy but amazing Mum life - we’ve definitely got this - even on two hours sleep! 😴👍🏻⭐️ #surreymummy #babyboy #sleepdeprivedmama #organiczoo #babyclothes #momtogs
  • I have loved spending a little more time with these two this week, but my goodness have I felt split! Mum guilt has most certainly been real trying to split my time between three! 👧🏼👧🏼👶🏼 I went shopping yesterday and a lovely Mum who saw me struggling trying to carry drinks for three, watch the girls and push a pram had to help me and then someone asked how I managed. My answer, I just do (under a lot of pressure 😆) The juggle is real and I love it but I’m pretty happy for an extra pair of hands for the weekend ❤️ Photo @fionacaroline #familylife #familyoffive #surreymum #surreymummy #surreymama

  • Please sleep 😳👶🏼 This picture accurately sums up today, Ellis wide eyed and fighting sleep. My fail safe way to guarantee sleep is a walk in the pram, but with two others, a play date this morning for the girls and rain I haven’t been able to get out! The other ways he’d *usually* fall asleep are: ▪️bouncing in a bouncer with a soother ▪️in the carrier ▪️in my arms None of these worked either today! 🙈 What are your best tips for these days? Help a mama out 😘 (as there is still bedtime to go and my husband is currently on a plane back from Glasgow...) help! 😆 #honestmotherhood #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodthroughinstagram #igmotherhood #surreymum #surreymummy #surreymama #mummyblogger #mumblog #thehonestfaceofparenting #bugaboo #bugaboofox
  • Ellis is thinking ‘what have I got myself in for with this lot’ 😂🙈 This morning I thought, let’s go out - do something fun for the girls. I started the ‘getting out of the house process at 9am’ I’ll let you all guess what time we ACTUALLY left 😳 So a 5, 3, 7 week old and me - what do you think? 😆 Oh and the original fun plan was scrapped for a walk into our village 🤦🏼‍♀️ I tried. I failed. #familyoffive #newborn #newbornbaby #familylife #threekids #threechildren #momlife #mumlife #mumsofinstagram #momtogs
  • ad | It’s half term and I’ve been planning activities with the help of @offspringsaving to keep the girls busy in the mornings in the hope that they’ll have quiet afternoons so I can give Ellis a little attention too! The school holidays can be expensive depending on what you decide to do so I try and do a mix of activities and utilise memberships like our RHS and National Trust ones. These are memberships we put money gifted (from family) to the girls towards as it really helps! A great way to help save for these things is an app called @offspringsaving which can help parents save towards activities, experiences or a specific savings goal. You can invite Grandparents (or people that ask what your children would like for special occasions) to contribute and it goes straight into your child’s bank account, no need to create a new one! As the parent you can see how much you have saved towards lessons or the cost of a membership for example and it makes it easier to invite multiple people to contribute (and no more lost cheques)!! The app isn’t a bank and it’s free to use. It works with most banks and building societies and links to your child’s existing bank account to transfer the money. What are the activities you love doing in the school holidays? Are you National Trust lovers like us?

  • Always being jumped on by one or more of them ❤️ Wouldn’t have it any other way though. Today Ellis has been SO unsettled, he’s hardly slept (didn’t sleep much last night either) so he’s spent most of the day on my shoulder, in my arms or feeding. I feel exhausted. We went for a walk earlier to get him to sleep in desperation and got caught in the worst rain so hid in the pub (and then Ellis woke)! 🙈 I forgot about the walks to get little ones to sleep and the overtired non sleeping days and the not knowing what to do next scenarios. Luckily I’ve had two crazy girlies to keep me giggling, but goodness me I hope he’s feeling better tomorrow/tonight 😢 Is wonder weeks still a thing people follow? I remember studying that religiously with Amelie and forgot about it with Evie but maybe I need to read it all again this time and I’ll be more prepared for these days. #6weeksold #onemonthold #baby #newbornbaby #newborn #babyboy #surreymum #surreymummy #surreymama #momtogs #honestmotherhood #honestmothering
