We all know that parenting is an around-the-clock-24-hours-a-day job. But sometimes a gal just needs 30 mins on the sofa by herself without poopy fart butts, milky burps and loud siren crying. And sometimes you need to find ways to incorporate your old life into your new one. Seems Josh has found a decent way to work from home while I quickly get some down time. Please note, no babies were harmed in the taking of this photograph. (He loves his dad so much). 👶🏼❤️

Being burped by nanny after boobie milk 😝

Hello Sunday. ✨ Took an afternoon stroll up to Clean Kilo again (we are clearly obsessed) and popped into the coffee shop opposite for a quick bite to eat. It was a first for us being out eating with la bebe and I even got a few bites of my sausage and egg sandwich accompanied by a latte before baby realised what we were doing. Baby Seb soon woke up and I tried my hand at breastfeeding in public for the first time. It’s not as scary as I thought it would be but I guess we were at our own table away from most people. We’ll get there, with baby steps. 🦶🏻👶🏼

When your mornings become a game of “do I have 20 minutes to make breakfast, shower, get rid of the milk off my boobs and possibly brush my hair?”. 😂🍼 Sebastian and I have had a lovely morning so far. I’ve bathed him, used his beautiful new personalised towel from Auntie @thelikelylady and he’s been dozing since 10:30. It’s nice when I can actually do one or two things for me still so I don’t completely lose myself when looking after this fresh new human. Everyone keeps telling me to take a moment for me too and it seems to be working. Even if it means jumping onto Instagram to upload photos instead of snoozing myself. 😝 In other news, happy Friday folks, I can’t wait for the weekend. Tonight we’re having my best friends over to cuddle the baby and I’m being taken out for lunch tomorrow. I haven’t really left the house much these past two weeks as it’s been really wet and miserable and the last thing I want is us both to get a cold. I’ve also tried to master the whole breastfeeding game and I really really want to be one of those moms who can just lift their top up. It’s taken a lot of patience to get to this point where he’s actually latching on (sometimes with nipple shields) so don’t want to jynx it. Praying for some sunshine this weekend so we can go for a walk too. And breathe. ✨🌕

Won a little competition with @weetabixonthego and they’ve given me some vouchers so I can pick up a tasty stash of their bottles. Learning to do things one handed at the moment so these will definitely come in handy! Thanks to @sian.victoria for her competition and for allowing me to become a winner via her competition. 😌✨ . . . #weetabix #weetabixprotein #weetabixofficial #nomnomnom #eeeeeats #onthego #win #winner #competition #prize #foodies

M O N D A Y✨ Managed to get some sleep last night which was a great success. We’ve got a long way to go before we form a routine but I feel we’re on the right track at least. We have some more people visiting today and to be honest it’s nice to have a bit of normality and to see other things than poopy nappies and milk covered muslin cloths. 🤣 Fuelling up this morning with a @nespresso.uk vertuo hazelnut coffee and berry granola from @thecleankilo. 🍌 #breakfast #eeeeeats
