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

I mean you shouldn’t have favourites but 😂… I mean you shouldn’t have favourites but 😂…Alexander who turns 11 today, is definitely in my top three 😉 and he’s always been my shadow! The most caring and attentive big brother to his little best friend Florence, this one’s either got his head stuck in a book or he’s playing football (with serious skill) whatever the weather. A laugh-maker, joy-bringer, caring old soul, Mummy’s boy (in the best way), hilariously funny to his core, to know Xander really is to love Xander. He makes friends everywhere he goes and lights up every room he enters with that big grin of his and those warm, kind eyes! Our little philosopher, I love his wise observations and clever counsel to his friends and siblings and the way he makes everyone around him feel so safe and valued, he really is one special boy/ young man 😍. Swipe to see photos over the years ♥️♥️♥️ #birthday #birthdayboy #middlechild #mumlife #momlife #momofthree #siblings #exploremore #motherhood #mummysboy

Happy 22 months to our sweet Florence Catherine. H Happy 22 months to our sweet Florence Catherine. Hilarious (and she knows it), chatty and bilingual, loving and oh so loveable, we were fooled by how quiet and calm she was for the first few months because this ‘baby’ sure has a big, magnetic and sunny personality. I’ve blogged and shared her monthly birthdays and milestones since she was born so as not to forget (because it’s so often a blur when you reflect back, isn’t it?). I’ll stop at 2 years, I think. The pics, posts and Reels have been the equivalent of me completing a baby book, I suppose. Poor Florence’s has remained untouched. I only managed a few pages for baby number two, Alexander, but proudly finished the entire baby book for my eldest, Oliver, because: firstborn! Hats off to anyone boasting completed baby books for more than one child! Serious respect. #trend #toddler #transition #22monthsold #explorepage #toddlers #babygirl #waitforit #relatable #milestones #momsofinstagram
