  • When I was pregnant with Theo, I remember feeling completely daunted by the world of baby products. It was an alien world that I knew nothing about. Yes, I was growing tiny human, but I hadn’t a clue about things like prams, car seats and nappy bags. The amount of advice online is overwhelming, so where on earth do you start? I began to ask my ‘Mum’ friends for advice, which is how I first head about @myjoolz. I’ve been using the Joolz Day 3 pram for 5 months now, so I decided to blog a review to help other clueless expecting mamas. Mums, how did you decide on a pram?

  • Happy Fathers Day to the most wonderful, loving and hardworking Daddy. Seeing you become Theo’s Dad has made me love you more than I ever knew possible. You believed in our 25 weeker from day one and always had faith that he would make it (even when I feared he wouldn’t). In the darkest of times you showed me light and so much strength. You were right all along and now we have our beautiful boy. I’m so lucky to be navigating this crazy parenting adventure with you 🌟#FathersDay #NICUparents
  • Whoever said ‘it’s grim up north’ clearly had never been to Victoria Quarter. If they had I think they’d find its rather fabulous 🥂😆 Today Theo and I are taking a trip to Daddy’s office to introduce him to lots of new faces. Scott is presenting to the whole company to tell them all about @leeds_cares and how they helped to save Theo’s life. I’m so proud of Scott for nominating the @leeds_cares Neonatal Units for his company’s named charity. His efforts to pitch the charity and tell Theo’s story means that £10-£15k will be raised for the Leeds Neonatal Units and the best part is he will have a say on how the money is spent. Having both spent 17 weeks as new parents on Bradford, Sheffield and Leeds Neonatal Units, we have a fair few ideas on how we can make a really positive impact with the money. I’m so proud of you @scottwh9! 💪🏼💕
  • One of my favourites from our shoot with @korm87 a couple of weeks ago. Luckily Theo cooperated and handled his first shoot like a pro, although we did have to break for a bottle half way through 🍼(oh how things have changed!) So proud of my boy, who reached 10lb 2oz this week. We WILL reach the 2nd centile! #PreemiePower 🌟💕
  • I’m excited to tell you all that there’s a new post on the blog, all about our first ‘baby free’ night away at @thegrandyork (York’s one and only 5 star hotel). I approached the stay with mixed emotions but turned out to be exactly what we all needed...🌿💕 Link is in my bio and stories #hotelhideaway #hotelstay
  • Of all the things my hands have held, the best by far is you. Yesterday was my 29th Birthday and my first as a Mummy (thanks for all the lovely birthday messages!). I spent the day with my boys and family, going out for a long lunch, showing Theo swans in the park, drinking tea and eating cake (more on Stories). It was low key and lovely, just the type of day I needed. Tonight I’m heading out for some Teppanyaki Birthday fun with my girls 🥂. I’m now in the last year of my 20’s (eeek) and I plan to make it count ✨🌸 #TheodoreWilliam (Photo credit @the.baron.vogelsang)
