It has been an absolutely crazy few weeks in our household. Work has been busy, there have been lots of birthdays, I went to BlogOn and we went on holiday. It actually feels quite strange having time to sit down and write something for the blog. As I write, Autumn is playing with her Paw Patrol look out tower, acting like the vloggers she watches playing with toys on YouTube! It’s amazing how quickly we’ve got to this point; it feels like she’s grown so fast. She was around 4 months old when I started the blog, and now we’ve just celebrated her 3rd birthday.

Review: The Lion in Farningham
Last week we visited The Lion pub and restaurant in the quaint and historic village of Farningham in Kent. It has recently been refurbished and we were invited to try it out. We visited on a Thursday evening, taking our 2 year old daughter with us.

They were talking about how it’s going to be a struggle for food banks in Kent over the summer holidays. Sadly, I imagine this will also be the case elsewhere in the UK. I’ve written about child poverty before and how it can have an impact on children’s health. As I’ve said before, I can’t believe that child poverty still exists in our country.
Misery in Margate and fun in the sun
Do you ever have days where you feel like everything is conspiring against you, despite your best efforts? Of course, we all do. Although, I actually have a sneaky suspicion that I have more than the average person. On Saturday, the hottest day of the year so far, I was desperate to have a lovely day on the beach at Westgate with my little family. However, the day didn’t go entirely to plan.
PAW Patrol: Mighty Pups preview at Showcase Cinema de Lux
Gifted¦ On Saturday, Autumn and my husband went to Showcase Cinema de Lux Bluewater for the preview of PAW Patrol: Mighty Pups. It was her first time going to the cinema and she was very excited. PAW Patrol is actually her favourite programme at the moment. Naturally, she was keen to take along her Skye toy to watch the movie from the plush reclining seats and meet the pups!
