A few weeks ago, we spent a fabulous morning at Mayfield Lavender with the very lovely Rachel Thornhill. I’ve known Rachel for a few years as she used to teach the twiglets Gymboree before she embarked on her career as a photographer. Her work is amazing so when she offered to take some photos of … Continue reading Twiglet Top Tips – Rachel Thornhill Photography

Has It Finally Got Easier?
Back when the twiglets were babies, whenever I met a mum with older twins, one of the main questions I'd end up asking was ‘when will it get easier?’ Always spoken with a slight undertone of crazed desperation, meaning ‘please tell me it gets f**king easier, please, PLEASE!'' 🤣 The other day, as I got … Continue reading Has It Finally Got Easier?
When You Can’t Protect Your Children From Other Influences
I remember vividly the first time the twiglets came home from nursery and started singing a song that I didn't know.

I managed to do a short walk (literally two minutes) from the car to a local softplay, and back again after, … Continue reading Breakthrough or Fluke?
How Do You Know If What You’re Feeling Is Normal?
This is a question I've been asking myself basically since the day the twiglets were born. I felt utterly and completely overwhelmed in those first few weeks, even months, and constantly found myself wondering ‘is this normal?’ In the very early days, when we first brought our tiny bundles home, the midwives and health visitor … Continue reading How Do You Know If What You’re Feeling Is Normal?
Bedtime Battles – a.k.a. GO THE F**KEDY F**K TO SLEEP!
I'm not too sure what the point of this post is going to be – in fact I'm pretty sure there isn't one. Basically I just wanted to have a great big f**k-off rant about how utterly SHIT the twiglets are at going to bed at the moment. Anyone who's followed me for a while … Continue reading Bedtime Battles – a.k.a. GO THE F**KEDY F**K TO SLEEP!
