Why do I blog? {The number game}

Recently I have been thinking about this, a lot – as have a lot of other bloggers judging by my Twitter feed. Why do I blog? Every month, thousands of bloggers await excitedly (and me, nervously) to see where they have ranked in the Tots100 chart. Out of around 8,000 blogs, to rank in the top 500 is great, but to be ranked in the top 100, well, that’s just amazing. Or is it? The whole Tots chart, it feels like a competition to a lot of bloggers. Well it is really, just like getting to the top of any chart. …

#VlogChallenge Week 3 – Books

As each week of the #vlogchallenge passes by, I’m becoming more confident – and I only had one outtake this week (I should start posting them shouldn’t I?)! There could’ve been more but I was pushed for time and I didn’t want to keep starting again, so be sure to expect lots of pauses and “erm”‘s! It’s actually longer than 2 minutes this week as well.

Meal Planning Monday – 21st July

Although I haven’t stuck to my meal plan every week so far, I’m surprised that I’ve actually managed to keep going for this long. Any other time I’ve tried, it’s only lasted a week! I am finding it so much easier though with regards to wastage and time for making meals, as I know the evening before what we are going to have so I’m not rooting around looking for something the next day, and any leftovers hubby usually takes to work for his lunch. Last week I managed to stick to plan other than Sunday when we went to my father-in-law’s …

Day out review Review Travel

Stockeld Park – The Summer Adventure | Review

I’ve mentioned a couple of times previously that we rarely plan days out as we never know when hubby’s day off will be, so any time we get the chance to do something fun, I’m very eager. We were recently invited to Stockeld Park for the VIP preview of their Summer Adventure opening, and I couldn’t wait to take my boys! After watching the preview video on their website, I was so excited.
