She still eats well of course but the whole hyper vigilant parenting style we all appropriate as first time parents (or most of us, anyway) ceases with subsequent children because your time and energy is divided.

Did you catch me on @gmb’s light hearted debate Did you catch me on @gmb’s light hearted debate on whether texting your children in the same house, is lazy parenting? Nope. Let’s not pile on any more pressure to parents please and take our phones away 😝! My teen usually has his headphones on in his room whether it’s doing homework or playing with friends so texting gets through to him to come for dinner/ empty the dishwasher etc. We don’t use the phone to replace communal activities or meaningful discussions (we eat dinner together every evening and spend phone-free time together) but texting helps me communicate and it allows me a glimpse into his world when he shares funny memes with me 😝. Texting has replaced the little bell my Mum used at the bottom of the stairs (and her shouting up to us) when my brother and I were growing up and I’m grateful for that! Thank you for my beautiful red leopard print dress @tlmedit (gift). Thank you for styling my hair @hair__byzoe 😍. Lovely to bring my Mum with me for a little mini break. Thank you for looking after us so well @kwesthotel as always. I’ve been appearing on Good Morning Britain since it started and today I was given a dressing room to use. I must be moving up in the world 😝! You can rewatch on ITV + 1 at 09:45 am 📺. #parenting #practicalparenting #momlife #mumlife #debate #gmb #honestparenting #honestmotherhood #tech

No grapes were harmed in the making of this Reel 🍇(because they were paid for)! Even my toddler is trying to sample the goods 😂. Like mother, like daughter 😜! Anyone else relate to trying before buying? I’m turning into my grandma (Yiayia). #relatable #relatablemom #greek #cypriot #greekmom #momlife #funnyreels #justjokes #justjoking #havingalaugh #itsajoke #humor #funnyreels #comedy #toddler #toddlerlife. Thanks for filming me @eleni.za.98 and for the non-stop laughter today! Florence’s bespoke cardi bought from @thelittlelambstore 😍
Woohoo, we’ve just bought our forever home 🏡 Woohoo, we’ve just bought our forever home 🏡 and are over the moon! After a year of searching (including walking away from another house late in the process), we have finally found our family home in beautiful Harrogate, close to the centre. The builders start work next week so my folks haven’t gotten rid of us just yet 😝 but not long now! Today is a day of gratitude, to manifesting (and working hard) for the life, family, jobs and house my husband and I have always dreamed of. I realised today when collecting the keys that we’re also moving close to where we got married at Rudding Park too. It’s funny how the universe works, hey ♥️. Excited to share more once we’re in and start making the house our own. Part 1 of the work now begins and soon it will be time to start cheating on fashion (mostly Florence’s) with furniture. Do you remember who famously said this quote? Scroll through the pics to the video of one of the sides of the house and Florence having fun in the garden. Happy Friday everyone x #house #newhouse #newhome #home #harrogate #harrogatelife #moving #renovation #foreverhome #toddlerlife #momlife #mumofthree #newbeginnings
