Life as a v/blogger is never dull! Fact!
Last night, First Direct Arena partner CitiPark invited me and the girls to the MOBO Awards in Leeds and what an incredible night it was.
We head to this family's happy place: the Yorkshire Sculpture Park for a day of running through leaves enjoying the outdoor sculptures and installations and admiring Wave: the iconic poppy sculptures which are part of a UK wide tour.
In this vlog, the kids go to play at Grandma's House during half-term so I can do some work and make deadlines. Xander doesn't want me to drop him off (cue Mummy guilt) but both boys have amazing fun with my parents for the day. Their reaction when they see their Daddy pick them up is so cute too.
Seriously cute vlog alert people as the boys get a haircut, as do I, and my sister-in-law to be as a mobile hairdresser Nina pops in and turns my lounge into a hair salon!
A normal day in our lives-Alexander is off nursery feeling unwell so we hang around the house, make lego, cook, chill, cuddle and play in the local park- and it might just be one of my most favourite days. I love that it's captured on camera so I can share it with you all.
This vlog features us heading out to some of our favourite places and spaces in York from the National Railway Museum to the Treasurer's House, part of the National Trust, this time to see the V&A's Vivien Leigh exhibition we found enthralling.
Over on my YouTube channel you can enjoy a busy day in beautiful Liverpool with us, for crafting fun with Vertbaudet, catching up with blogger friends, and fab mates who live there.
What girl doesn't love a pamper, hey?! In today's vlog, I take you off to my local salon for an OPI gel manicure and some eyebrow threading and dying. No pain, no gain right?! Such a lovely pamper day with some much needed 'me time' helping me feel a little more polished and ready to face the world.
The last few weeks have seen my usually pretty healthy way of eating go to pot, with lots more sugar finding its way into my diet from celebratory cakes to afternoon teas and far too much champagne (with my recent 10th wedding anniversary, my brother's engagement and baby cousin's birth)- making me feel sluggish, tired and really not my best, physically and mentally. I've less energy than usual, haven't been sleeping well and my PMT is worse than ever.
I am often asked about my skincare routine and although I'll be covering this in upcoming beauty vlogs I thought I'd share some of my kind, gentle must-have's that I love for my skin.
