We visited Enginuity, which is a science museum in Ironbridge, (Telford, Shropshire) during this half term and is one of ten museums in the Ironbridge Gorge World Heritage site. We are incredibly lucky to have these museums on our doorstep and want to make use of what our great town has to offer.

Half Term
I have been looking forward to this half term for weeks, not only because we have all needed a break and time off together for a while but also because the weather is slowly picking up and I am wanting to do more with Ellie.
Twenty-Eight.
Birthday's come and go so quickly don't they? I have never been a bit fan of celebrating my birthday, something about being in the spotlight I guess, it's just not my thing. I'd happily celebrate anyone else's in their's was the same day and so i've never really got excited about it. Turning 28 doesn't… Continue reading Twenty-Eight.
Fiesty Redhead
Wow the terrible twos are in full swing over here. I have always heard that redheads have fiery tempers but I'd never fully believed that hair colour could define temper yet I seem to have the fiestiest toddler ever! Her temper is definitely worse more recently. She has learnt to scream, tighten her fists and… Continue reading Fiesty Redhead
Breakdown
Do you ever feel like the world is spinning so fast and you start to feel so dizzy and there's no way of slowly it down? As much as I am putting in to life and being present, my own mental health is taking a huge bashing. I am constantly worried about everyone else, about… Continue reading Breakdown
The Percussion Box – Review (Gifted)
Recently I have been so excited for the launch of a new small business on Instagram, The Little Sensory Box, a sensory box designed mainly for babies up to the age of 12 months. Or I was excited until I realised Ellie was quite a bit older than 12 months! I love supporting small businesses… Continue reading The Percussion Box – Review (Gifted)
Positive Wellbeing – Review (Gifted)
I'm not good at self-care, I find it difficult to MAKE time for myself since Ellie was born. The Positive Wellbeing 'Zine for Mums does exactly what Emma envisaged, it promotes positivity in a world that can be extremely hard for new mums, actually on all mums! #winningasamummy #review #zineformums #isabellaandus #motheringarainbow #mblogger #pblogger #gifted
Matching Games
I got this Peppa Pig matching game for 50p in Tesco a few months ago, the box said 3+ but I knew I would find a use for them, even if it was just recognising the characters. Ellie confidently matches the character and likes pretending to get them wrong 😂. I don't use all the… Continue reading Matching Games

Sad songs. Ones that make me think about… Continue reading Gone Too Soon
Health Review
This morning we took Ellie for her 2 year health review at the local baby clinic, ever since she's been born I have had awful feelings about health visitors. When Ellie was first born we saw 4 different health visitors in the first week, none of them knew our background and I felt myself explaining… Continue reading Health Review
