• My blog CRUSH

    My Blog Crush In my previous post I touched on how I entered the blogging world, very uncoordinated and not as eloquently as most. But I kept at it and I love what I do, when I find the time to do it and once I’ve done it I can sit back and catch up on all my favourites out there. So join me and share in my blog crush this week and if there’s someone that you think I SHOULD be following then let me know!

So without getting overly emotional here’s my…

  • The Kids Style File

    Hello 2016! During 2015 I had the absolute pleasure of meeting some AMAZING woman, one of which just happened to be one of my favourite Mom bloggers, Mandy from Pregnant in Cape Town and since meeting her I’m pleased to say our friendship has just blossomed. Its not very often I meet someone who I just connect with, someone who understands the challenges Parenting poses like I do and is 100% real. A like minded working Momma who like me is obsessed with our kiddie. Well if you don’t know who she is then shame on you, she’s amazing. When she is not blogging she is also writing editing and…
