I’ve decided to take on the #indieroller insta c I’ve decided to take on the #indieroller insta challenge & today’s prompt is YOU! ⁣ ⁣ So here’s me & my little man cause it’s only fair he gets to share the limelight considering he’s the reason I started. ⁣ ⁣ It’s not a very clever decision to start a small biz whilst on maternity & well it definitely isn’t easy but I did it 👏🏻⁣ ⁣ It’s gone from making a few bits for Jasper to exploring my creative side & learning new skills. ⁣ ⁣ I’m obsessed with punch needle & once this pandemic is all over I really want to take some macrame classes. ⁣ ⁣ My days may be controlled by my little monster but its absolutely lush to have found an outlet that lets me just be me! Ooh & for you lovely lot to like it too 🥰
You guys voted & well the results were an overwhel You guys voted & well the results were an overwhelming yes so this neon cloud is now listed as an option on my shop 👏🏻⁣ ⁣ I think it’s pretty darn cute but I do think it’s important to let you know this fringe is made with acrylic yarn rather than the cotton I usually use. It still looks fab & is still jam packed with colour 🌈 ⁣ ⁣ But yeah you can shop now on my Etsy 👏🏻
I feel like I’m really slacking on the Instagram I feel like I’m really slacking on the Instagram front & well it’s because I’m spending all my time making pom-poms 😂⁣ ⁣ Honestly who knew they’d one day take over my life 🤷🏻‍♀️ ⁣ ⁣ But in all honesty this week has been a bit stressful. I went back to work & lost two days which has made me panic about my shop. Sometimes I just really overwhelmed & I know you guys are bloody fab & totally understand but aren’t we all our worst critics? 🤦🏻‍♀️⁣ ⁣ But yes I thought I’d just be open with you lovely lot because running a small biz is never as easy as it looks on insta. We all have behind the scene struggles & spend a lot of time pulling out hair out 🙃

I have a confession to make... I haven’t been a I have a confession to make... I haven’t been a very good mum today 🙃⁣ ⁣ I’ve been irritable, I’ve been moody & I’ve just been overwhelmed by it all. It’s been a tough day & well Jasper doesn’t know boundaries or why it’s not a good idea to hurt mummy constantly 😩⁣ ⁣ I’ve prioritised what I want to be doing over what Jasper wants & well I feel like a bit of a dickhead. ⁣ ⁣ Lots of snuggles have been had & I know Jasper doesn’t hate me but lord mum guilt is out in full force. ⁣ ⁣ No idea why I’m posting this cause we all know some people will be reading this with those judgey eyes rolling in the back of their heads. ⁣ ⁣ But hey I’m human & it’s alright if there’s days where you think holy shit I’m a crap parent 👏🏻
I survived my first week of our new normal 👏🏻 no more maternity leave for me & well I’m officially a working mum!⁣ ⁣ It really wasn’t bad & well it’s like I never left. Thank god my brain retained everything it needed. Even amidst the pandemic it felt natural. Crazy right? ⁣ ⁣ Leaving Jasper wasn’t tough & I was honestly surprised how shocked people were that I wasn’t fussed. Jasper got a few fun days of bossing granny & the dogs around whilst I got a small bit of my old life back. ⁣ ⁣ There’s nothing wrong with wanting time away from your baby & yes I do miss him but trust me I’m a better mum with those days off. There’s also nothing wrong with wanting to spend everyday with your baby. ⁣ ⁣ I just don’t get why it’s a big deal either way. Aren’t we all different at the end of the day?
Reminder to self; Take care of yourself! 👏🏻⁣ ⁣ Even if it seems impossible. ⁣ Even when you don’t have time. ⁣ Even if it just means washing your hair or cleansing your face. ⁣ ⁣ Take care of yourself no matter how big or small an action it is. Take time out for you cause honey you’re on the fast lane to burnt out town 🙃
Times are changing... just like that it’s my las Times are changing... just like that it’s my last week of maternity leave 😩⁣ ⁣ I’m really lucky to be going back for two full days only but it’s still giving me all the anxiety. How does my baby brain retain all that info? I honestly feel like I need to relearn absolutely everything 🤦🏻‍♀️⁣ ⁣ It’s just gonna be weird not have unlimited time with my men & trying to juggle all my responsibilities but hey you gotta do what you gotta do right? ⁣ ⁣ Send me all the success stories please 😂
Right guys I’m sweating my tits off today so I c Right guys I’m sweating my tits off today so I can confirm I’m not crazy enough to be wearing this corduroy boilersuit 😂⁣ ⁣ But I’m here to shoutout the wonderful @growing.basil again because look at these freaking awesome pins 👏🏻⁣ ⁣ I decided to get a couple of her seconds whilst splurging on her new badge range & well aren’t they lush? Full disclaimer the attached parent pin was gifted earlier in the year but I’ve bought a bunch more 🥰⁣ ⁣ Fiona is a bloody babe too so you’re shopping small & supporting an absolute gem in the process 👍🏻
How do you keep a one year old from eating sand? 😂⁣ ⁣ No seriously but bar the sneaky sand eating an evening down the beach was just what we needed 🌞⁣ ⁣ Jasper chased the waves & found it absolutely hilarious. Save to say we’ve got a beach baby on our hands 👏🏻
