It’s a London Thing…

We lived in London for many years before relocating to Leeds a year ago and like to head back and see our friends on family breaks when we can. I still often work in the Big Smoke but this break was purely for family time and fun and the little man loved every minute.

Hello Sunshine…

Wohoo, it's tropical out there (get those maternity hot pants at the ready)- OK maybe I'm not rocking the hot pants with a bump band but with highs of 24, I'm one happy Mama, absorbing every single last golden ray and totally loving the summer style that's hitting the high street.
Cannes 2009

Cannes Darling…

No don't get too excited-I won't be attending this year *weeps. You see being up the duff is not ideal for party going Cannes plus I have writing commitments to get on with (must stop procrastinating and writing this blog, instead) but Cannes is AMAZING.

I Saw a Ding a Ling!

So today was my 20 week scan and if you haven't guessed already...it's a boy! Am totally thrilled as I always imagined myself with two boys (although I appreciate I will be utterly outnumbered in the house and Arsenal might never get turned off the box)!

New Sunglasses Baby!

The kind people at Polaroid Sunglasses sent me some cool sunglasses and here I am modelling them. They're the Marilyn Monroe-esque pair called 'Sensation P8207A's' and I love them! Now all we need is some sunshine!
The Scandal

Music Video for New Band The Scandal…

If you remember I directed a music video a couple of months ago for a super cool, young band The Scandal (I predict big things for these boys) for their debut track Karolina.

Heart Melters

Check out my little heart melter!! From the moment they're born they melt your heart. This week Oliver has been utterly adorable planting kisses on me at every opportunity and telling me I'm beautiful. He's a charmer, alright. I wanted to share this picture of him with you all. I'm so proud of what a fine and funny young boy he is growing into you. He sure makes me a better person by the day.

Bilingual Baby

My child is British but his ethnic origin is half Greek and the other half is well mostly English with a dash of French, Dutch and Welsh.

Celebrating the Mothers in My Life

Two days ago my beautiful and intelligent Grandmother, Vikentia turned 95. Amazing. My Dad's family live forever thankfully-his Grandmother died at 113. For real. It's that naturally organic food and sunshine. Good for the soul.

Tough Love

I understand that the tantrumming, moments of mad frustration, yelling, kicking and pinching are all par for the course for a terrible two year old 'undergoing the change': the tumultuous journey towards independence. But what of the sanity of the 31 year old mother?

Exciting News (You Might Already Know)

Woop Woop! Today I had a three month scan as there is most definitely a little bun in the oven: a sibling for my 2 year old. We are all very excited. On hearing the news, said 2 year old (and 2 months) stated, "Where is it? Want to see it? Cut it out".

Pregnant Naked Celebrities: Celebrating or Sexualising the Bump?

It's a hard one. When Demi Moore stripped bare for her 91 Vanity Fair Cover at seven months pregnant, some said it was a feminist stance, celebrating her new found form, others felt it a controversial move by an actress in constant need of attention.
