Late last year, on a total whim, we decided to get married in Bali. Just the three of us. We’ve been together for almost ten years, engaged for five of those, and thought it was probably about time. The idea of a traditional wedding was never quite us, and the thought of spending a tonne of money on one single…
On a whim late last year we decided to book a trip to Bali. At the time flights were on sale and we thought it wasn’t too long of a flight for a toddler who HATES sitting still, so we locked it in. Being our first overseas trip with Eva I was slightly nervous about how she would go. She’s…
Yesterday Colin and I had one of those magical days that seems to happen like once every two years for parents… we got to spend pretty much the entire day together, just him and I, sans Eva. By some miracle, one of her day care days lined up with us still being on holidays. Hells yes. So, we were able…
I can hardly believe Christmas is here already. This time of year is always a special time for everyone, but for us, it will now always bring back the memories of waiting for our baby girl to arrive. Each Christmas I always think back to this time (two years ago, eek!) and reminisce about it. This coming Christmas is definitely…
After nearly two years at home with this little lady, the time finally came for me to get my butt back into work. Never before had I been so excited to go to work. I think only fellow mama’s will get this – my friends with no kids thought I was nuts. The idea of peace and quiet, adult conversation,…
So apparently, it’s nearly Christmas time. How the hell did November just sneak right up on me? Is anyone else asking themselves just where this entire year went? It’s like it was Easter and then I blinked, and all of a sudden, it’s practically time for the fat man in the red suit to come down the chimney. Eeek! With…
I have wanted to put removable wallpaper up in Eva’s room since forever but one little thing was stopping me. Installing it myself. I had this horrible feeling that instead of it looking all pretty and perfect like everyone else’s on insta land, it’d look a little more like the contact on my year four notebook. Think bubbles and creases…
So many things change when you have a baby. Basically, every single component of your life changes. You have less time, less sleep, more mess, more washing, and the list goes on. But one thing I totally hadn’t factored in was what having a baby and being a stay at home mum would do to my energy bill. And as…
Pre-baby, remember those days? When you had all these ideas and opinions about just the type of parent you would be. The things you would and would definitely not do. No packet food, no sugar, no dummy, no yelling and most definitely no swearing. And then the baby comes along and lets be honest, at least fifty percent of those…
Remember when you’d gaze into your wardrobe and ponder what to wear each day? Maybe even try on multiple outfits. Those days seem long gone, right? Now, it’s more a race against time. My general checklist goes a little something like this: is it clean or can it pass as clean? Yep? Then okay, we’re good to go. Since becoming…
What filters do I use? How do I make the white stand out? How do I remove certain tones? These are a few of the questions I get asked pretty regularly, so I thought I’d fill you in on just how I edit my photos for instagram. I use my iPhone for the majority of my photos and every now…
