During these difficult times I am ever so grateful for the #technology that allows us to see one another despite the distance. I will treasure this photo always - 4 generations spread across 4 countries on one call: granny, mum, sister and me and my baby.

Travelling with infant and toddler on #britishairways and had the best service from the flight crew. They were so helpful and friendly to my kids. Thank you for helping make the journey that little bit less stressful!

@clhubes I had my first child during COVID lockdowns. Not only did I have a postpartum body but it was a post-COVID body/post-baby body with a pre-COVID wardrobe 🤷‍♀️

@DrTraceyK @clhubes I try to at least get a workout in and then crush through chores , personal admin etc. It’s been a real game changer for me, as it allows me to feel better about myself and in turn be more present with my kids.

Conversation with my 3.5yo toddler about our babysitter.

Him: is she green?

Me: …
Me: what do you mean?

Him: Fiona, is she green? Fionas are green

Guess Shrek made an impression

@clhubes After watching The Good Dinosaur 30 times, our new rule is that our little man can’t rewatch the same movie/show in one weekend - trying to keep it fresh 🤷‍♀️ but it now means we only get through the first 45min of various Disney movies.

Having loads of fun guessing the Disney movie based on my little one’s descriptions.
“the boy, the monkey, the lamp and the blue thing” = Aladdin
“fish lady” = Little Mermaid

@clhubes And all the good intentions about exercising and healthy eating will go out the window if you aren’t getting enough sleep.
