The Mother’s Day Prize Bundle Giveaway

Being a Mum is a hard job, whether you stay at home or go to work. Regardless of how many children you have, there are so many plates to keep spinning. This, of course, is all while responding to the constant calls of “Mummy!” If I’m not washing, I’m making food. If I’m not making food, I’m stopping my little stuntwoman from doing something dangerous! There is just always so much to do. As such, if you’re anything like me, self-care often falls to the wayside. Therefore, myself and some other UK bloggers have teamed up to give you the chance to win a fantastic bundle of goodies this Mother’s Day which is worth £200. From prizes such as a beautifully versatile silk wrap, to a puzzle and beauty treats, they have been carefully put together. Hopefully, these will help to give you the “me-time” and pampering that you deserve!

With December just around the corner, I was invited to take part in the Jingle All The Way Christmas tag! This was really fun and definitely got me feeling festive 🙂

Thank you to Mum’s the Nerd for tagging me. You can see her post here:

BlogOn Toys: September 2019

If you’re part of the blogging community, it’s likely that you’ve heard of BlogOn. This conference is usually held twice a year in Manchester for bloggers to meet each other as well as brands, learn and have lots of fun! That said, there won’t be one next May and this September’s was held down south for the first time! I have to say, I enjoyed not having to haul myself up to Manchester, as Bracknell is only an hour and a half away from me. This was just as well, as I had to get ready for Autumn’s 3rd birthday the following day! This BlogOn was my 5th one. As usual, I had so much fun and the day went far too quickly!
