Tonight we went through 16 bags of clothes and it’s ended in us keeping 6 bags and throwing away 10. Now I need to go shopping 🤣

Brought my mum to get her eyebrows waxed and got her life ripped in the process.

Mum: *sits in the chair* I haven’t had this done for a long time!
Beautician: hmm, yes, I can see that.

😩🤣🤣🤣

I made my daughter a sandwich for lunch and after a few minutes she lifted up the bread to show me. Just the bread, no filling. I asked her where the filling was, and then I looked at her… it was on her face. She placed cut up slices of Billy Bear over her face.

Kayla has Wooden Blocks and Mega Blocks that I am forever cleaning up off of my floor. And today my mother decided it would be super great to add Stickle Bricks into the equation. It’s a fucking obstacle course getting to my sofa, and a crystal maze challenge to put them away.

What time is an acceptable time to wake up my husband? I have been awake with our daughter since 4:30, and I am exhausted from the week. I need to go back to bed, but I feel like I can’t wake him up too early otherwise he’ll be in a mood all day.

I’m sorry but how have I just booked my daughter’s first birthday??? I literally just gave birth???

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

I just spent the last two days reading and finishing Fourth Wing and I am so angry I didn’t read it sooner. It was stunning. Delicious. A work of art. I’m not convinced I won’t wake up in the middle of the night just to start Iron Flame.

It’s the little things in life that get me through it. Like me and my sister racing every year to see who can be the first to send the Friends ‘Merry Christmas Eve Eve’ GIF or the One Tree Hill ‘Holiday is a great day’ video every year. And yes, I won both this year 🤣

Applying for Kayla’s 15 hours of childcare. On the form I needed to put her birth certificate number in twice. Only to get a letter saying ‘we need to confirm her identity, please call us with her birth certificate number’. What?

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

My husband said I wasn’t allowed to post a photo on instagram of our tree until the whole room was done but he don’t follow me on X, so fuck him, here’s my new Christmas tree and theme and I am in love 😍

Motherhood is using the WHSmith voucher someone gave you for your birthday to buy things for your child 😂

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

Right okay it was indeed the first 1:57am 🤣

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

Jack & I started watching a new show tonight and now we have no idea if this is the first 1:57am or the second 😩😂

“one direction was a huge part of my childhood so idk how to navig-“ HE CHASED HER THAT WOMAN WITH AN AXE.

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

Being a mum is so wild. Like, I am so on the edge of a breakdown trying to sort of adequately childcare but then I look over at my daughter, who then smiles at me, and all of a sudden everything is okay 🥹

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

When you both want to go to the Con, but don’t wanna risk not having a babysitter. Thanks to For The Love Of Fantasy for having free Toddler tickets so my daughter can come with us ☺️

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

Not me being excited to check my payslip this morning after 6 months of shit maternity money… only to see it and see that they’ve paid me a month of statutory maternity instead of annual leave. It’s like £2000 short and I now cannot afford to live for October, so RIP Me 🤣

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

Was genuinely looking forward to some alone time this evening after a trying week of a teething stressy baby, whilst my husband did the bath and bedtime routine. But I guess that’s not happening now. Wonderful.

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

I can’t believe I go back to work in 11 days. Im looking forward to some normality and having the opportunity to miss my Peaches… but I’m not 100% sure I’m ready 😭

[Leigh Burns-Yetton 💙 @LeighBYetton]

For me, the wildest thing about having a baby is that her DNA stays in my body. Like, you don’t really deep your connection with your mother until you become a mother.
