If you follow me on Social Media you may have seen that over the weekend a couple of bars of the Cadbury Jaffa chocolate conveniently, by accident made their way into my hot little hands. Not surprising, I know, as lately chocolate has been my thing #thebabywantedit. So of course when I spied the combination of good old Jaffa's with yummy diary milk I couldn't resist. Armed with a couple of bars in hand (only a couple I promise), I headed home to show Steve my find. He was pretty excited … [Read more...]

Lil Gooseberry ~ 16 Week Update
So here it is... My first bump update for lil gooseberry. In case you didn't see my Facebook post a week or so back, I am one of those Mumma's that name their bump.

I have decided to post updates roughly monthly. The time already seems to be zipping by... (I don't think I could post … [Read more...]
