Hello!

My name's Amy.

I live in Leeds with my husband, Paul, our son, Benjamin, and our cat, Tuna Fey.

This blog is a little snapshot of my life, just as it is right now. It's a collection of many things; from motherhood and family to recipes, crafts, books and interiors.

I have read hundreds of books, and completed 11 GCSEs, 4 A-Levels and 2 degrees. But I don’t think I’ve ever had a steeper learning curve than the first year of parenting. Every day is a school day, huh?

Accidentally took a rather long Instagram break 🙈 I missed you pals! What’s been going on? Round here we’re deep in renovation hell, with a baby who has learnt to commando crawl and throw tantrums in one week. I’m also obsessing about Love Island and looking forward to some tapas and a well earned cocktail tonight 👌🏼

Like when you spot it 😂 This little rascal is so nearly on the move - he pulled himself up on the edge of our bed for the first time today and you can’t stop him from wriggling all over the place. We had a good 10 month run of keeping him contained, but I think we’ll either have to invest in some boxes or accept our fate from here on in...

Things that make me happy: tidy houses, babies that are starting to settle at nursery, homemade chocolate cake brought to my door, making progress, routine, and these delightfully fluffy peonies. What makes you happy?

I thought I’d be all about Scandi gender neutral baby clothes but, really, where’s the fun in that? He has all his life to dress in grey and when there are t-shirts with llamas on instead? There’s really no competition. We’ve been refreshing Ben’s summer wardrobe (by which I mean, actually buying one as he’s been a bit restricted to two outfits during the hot weather!) and it’s safe to say I am living vicariously through him... Why don’t they do this in my size?

How was this one so little and helpless less than a year ago? He’s such a lanky little bean now, constantly chattering and wanting to ‘walk’ everywhere. I know a lot of people mourn the newborn days when they’re so small and squishy, but honestly? I am glad that is over and we’re here now. It’s gotten so, so good, you guys.
