To Our Brown Eyed Girl Sweet Connie, you are one. It feels like just yesterday I was timing what I thought may be contractions, excited that you may be making your arrival. Of course, you kept us waiting eleven days, just like your sister. I can tell you for certain, every single second was worth … Continue reading A Letter to Connie on your First Birthday
To our precious big girl, Four! How can that be? I feel like just a second ago we were (im)patiently waiting your arrival with absolutely no clue about what it would be like to be parents but full of hopes and dreams for the journey ahead. It sounds like a cliché but I honestly feel … Continue reading A Birthday Letter to Susanna // Four Years of You
I heard somebody saying that the second trimester is like the honeymoon period of pregnancy and I think that’s pretty accurate. Even though my nausea lingered on at the beginning of the trimester, there was a definite and noticeable shift in how I felt. Suddenly my energy levels picked up, a neat bump appeared, I … Continue reading Sailing Through Second
I feel like this post needs to begin with a huge disclaimer; I am in no way a chef and I am certainly not a food blogger but one thing we love to do at our house is to entertain friends and family. You also won’t find any fancy recipes or posh nosh ideas here … Continue reading Eat, Drink & Be Merry

Life has been incredibly busy lately and to … Continue reading Susanna is Three {a Teddy Bears Picnic Party}
It’s a big year for my hubby and I, we are both leaving our 20’s behind and entering into the big 30. My thoughts around hitting this milestone birthday are for another post, another time; let’s just say I’m not thrilled at the prospect. Last year, as we discussed what was ahead, we decided that … Continue reading A Week in Croatia
Isn’t it strange how one of the first things we ask when we meet someone new is, ‘so, what do you do?’ I have never really understood it, maybe because I have never really cared about what people do for work! It’s certainly not amongst the top ten things I want to know when I … Continue reading So, you don’t work?
Welcome to our home, come on in. Truth be told, I have been resisting doing a home tour for a long time and the only reason for that is simply that I feel like Foxborough is still very much a work in progress. A few weeks ago a local homes magazine got in touch and … Continue reading Welcome to Foxborough {part one}
Well here we are, right on the cusp of a brand new year, a fresh start, a whole new adventure, isn’t it exciting? But before we jump into all things 2018 let’s take a little look back at the final hurrah of 2017. December was the perfect end to a truly wonderful year for us, … Continue reading The December Edit
