365-16 Time Out


Because even stay at home mums sometimes need a little bit of  luxury…

Eat Through the Kitchen – Week 2


Week two of my ‘Eat Through the Kitchen’ challenge went fantastically well.

365-15 Laundry Day


Some days all a SAH (Stay at Home) mom does, is SAH stuff!

365-14 Promises of Spring


As a baby brings the promise of a new life, so the budding leaf brings promises of spring.

365-13 Mommy and Me


What with oral and leg surgery this week, I’ve not been taking that many photos. So, I thought I’d do a collage of some of my favorites from the snow day.
