Collaborative Post¦ It’s not just regular schools that have started up again this September. Dance schools are now back too, hooray! Autumn has always loved dancing. In fact, she first started dancing on my first Mother’s Day when she was 6 months old. She heard some music and started smiling and wiggling from side to side, moving her chubby little arms around. For years, she seemed content just dancing in whatever way her mood took her. However, recently she’s expressed an interest in ballet. As a child, I did modern, Irish and a little bit of tap. Therefore, it was very exciting to sign my daughter up for dance lessons and choose her ballet clothes from Bloch.

Funny things my 4 year old says
This week, half a decade has passed since I gave birth to my beautiful daughter. If you’ve been reading the blog for some time, you’ll know that since she could talk, I’ve done a round-up of some of the funniest things she’s said that year. Children are just so adorably funny. I love looking back on these! This year has provided many more hilarious moments.
10 thoughts about my child starting primary school
Contains sponsored links¦ The summer holidays has finally come to an end (thank goodness in many ways, Reuben hasn’t really slept since he had bronchiolitis and it’s been a stressful few weeks!) Now the time has finally come for Autumn to start school. As a September-born baby, she’ll be one of the oldest in her year. As a result, I’ve had more time with her to myself than I would have done if she was born later in the school year. I’ve had way more time than I expected as a result of the pandemic, so I feel very lucky in some respects.

Reuben’s christening and how I planned it
I had so much fun planning Autumn’s christening, that in many ways I couldn’t wait to do it again for Reuben. Having our children baptised is something that’s really important to me. The rest of our family and friends seem to appreciate and enjoy the occasion too! Nevertheless, my life is busier these days, so it was actually quite stressful! Both children were unwell and Reuben was teething in the few weeks leading up to Reuben’s baptism. This resulted in me having even less time than usual. Still, I pulled it off in the end (just as the bestie I vented to said I would!)
