Hello and welcome to our world!
My name is Bex and together with my partner in crime Ed, we are navigating the adventure that is parenting our five small people by the sea. I never thought I would have children in my twenties and certainly not five of them, but here I am at 34 with a small tribe of mini humans that all call me Mummy (and sometimes Muuuuuuuuummmmmy).
I started blogging over nine years ago after my eldest son, Dylan was born and it has all evolved since then. What started out as a way to keep me occupied during the night feeds and to challenge me to use my brain a bit more after spending the day having conversations with a six month old has turned into a way to record our life and adventures from the ordinary everyday to those amazing moments I will never forget.
I am 34 and most of my bucket list revolves around travel. I want to see the world and I want to take my family with me. My degree is in English literature and I still read avidly and instagram is my happy place.
Dylan is 10 and it was because of how chilled out he was as a baby that this blog began. Gone are the days he would sleep all day, now you are more likely to find him with headphones in playing computer games or talking about the places he wants to visit. He is starting to ask for little bits of independence and it is hard letting go! He is in his final year of primary school and I am dreading when he becomes taller than me.
Archie is 8 and is always on the move. He would spend all day playing computer games if you let him but he loves being outdoors too, practising stunts on his scooter or doing anything with his friends. He is so incredibly caring and definitely my cuddly one!
Finn is 6 and not a fan of school because 'they are always telling me what to do'. He is headstrong, determined and absolutely charming when he wants to be. He makes friends wherever he goes and he loves to climb, dance and sing. Finn is overflowing with character and once you have met him, you won't forget him! He loves gaming, Avengers, Youtube, pink, unicorns and anything sparkly and wants to be a ninja when he grows up.
Cora is 5 and just starting year 1 at school. She is obsessed with everything dog and can't help but speak to every dog owner we meet. She is bossy and refers to her brothers as 'my boys'. She is confident, funny and happiest when she is crafting, colouring or making. She may be small but she is feisty and I can't wait to see how she changes the world.
Rex has born November 2021, a surprise addition to the family and is adored by his big siblings. So far he seems happier with the chaos of having them around than he does when the house is quiet!
Our house is noisy, messy, slightly chaotic and absolutely full of love.
