#BlogCrush – week 18

Happy Friday all and welcome back for another week of #BlogCrush .

Has everyone had a good week? It has been so lovely having the sun come out to play, we have enjoyed spending our afternoons outside. The weekend is almost here so that means Father’s Day is almost upon us, I hope all you Dads have a wonderful day, I am not sure what we will be doing, Oli will be expecting a full on fry up in bed on Sunday I’m sure, shame Leo is still too young to cook it himself!!

What is #BlogCrush ?

#BlogCrush is a linky with a difference that I host with wonderful Lucy (Lucy at Home)  . This linky is like no other as not only can you link up one of your own posts but we also ask you to add a post from another blogger to the linky too. So if you have read something this week (or ever) that has really wowed you then please add it as your BC to the linky below. I can’t wait to read this week’s helping of excellent posts!

Friday is here again and that can mean only one thing, it’s #BlogCrush time!

I hope you have all had a lovely week and are looking forward to a relaxing weekend. I have had my nan staying with us since Monday which has been lovely, the kids have enjoyed spending time with their great Nanny and I have enjoyed spending lots of quality time with her too. This weekend I am off out with the Mother in Law to see Sister Act in our local theatre so I am excited for Saturday night to come around.

Thank you to Lucy for hosting solo last week, the break from the linky did me the world of good but I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things now and reading all your posts.

#BlogCrush – week 16

#BlogCrush – week 16

Hello!

Welcome to #BlogCrush week 16. Lucy, how has our linky been running for 16 whole weeks already? Madness.

How was everyone’s half term? Made lots of lovely memories? It has been a bit chaotic here, I have had family come visit and I looked after my niece and nephew from Monday to Wednesday and looking after 4 kids has pretty much finished me off!

I am in a bit a blogging slump at the minute and I have stuff going on that I can’t really talk about (sorry to be vague!) so I am just not feeling myself at the minute. I am taking this week off commenting/retweeting the linky but, fear not, I am leaving you in Lucy’s very capable hands and I will be back next week.

What is #BlogCrush ?

#BlogCrush is a linky with a difference that I host with wonderful Lucy (Lucy at Home)  . This linky is like no other as not only can you link up one of your own posts but we also ask you to add a post from another blogger to the linky too. So if you have read something this week (or ever) that has really wowed you then please add it as your BC to the linky below. I can’t wait to read this week’s helping of excellent posts!

Before we get on to the linky I have a bit of a favour to ask you all. I have decided to put myself forward for the BiBs awards this year and if you enjoy my blog and like what I do then I would love you to vote for me in the best family lifestyle or readers choice categories. I will LOVE YOU forever (just click the badge below..pretty please).

New guest blogging series – The Newbie Takeover

New guest blogging series – The Newbie Takeover

This blogging business is a bit overwhelming at times, isn’t it? I mean, I have been at it for over 2 years now and I am still learning new things pretty much every day and can often still feel a bit confused by it all. When I first started blogging it took me quite a while to find my feet and the best thing I did (and this is my top tip for all new bloggers, by the way) is to ask fellow bloggers for advice/help/support. The blogging community is so friendly, kind and, in the parent blogging community especially, the sense of solidarity is really inspiring. I have been wondering for sometime how I can help bloggers just starting out, bloggers feeling as overwhelmed and baffled by it all as I did when I first started tapping at the keys of my laptop in 2015. I am not a pro blogger so I can’t really offer many useful blog tips and tricks but I do have a strong readership, an engaged bunch of lovely mums/dads who all seem to love reading blogs. Exposure is so so important when you start blogging and it can be really difficult to get eyes on your posts when your blog is just a baby. SO, I have decided to start a new guest blogging series all for the new bloggers on the scene, let me introduce you to.. View Post

#BlogCrush – Week 15

#BlogCrush – Week 15

Hello lovelies!

What a horrendous week this week has been. I, like the rest of the country, am absolutely appalled and heartbroken after what happened in Manchester on Monday night. I really do wonder what is happening to this world and I really do fear for what the future will be like for my two boys. If any of you were involved, or have any friends or family who have been affected by the terror attack in Manchester then I am sending all the love in the world. Love will conquer hate. Always.

I have got stuff going on in my personal life right now that is causing me to get feel really stressed and for my anxiety to be going through the roof so sorry if I am not my usual self on this old blog of mine over the next few weeks. Let’s try and perk things up here..it’s a bank holiday weekend AND half term is upon us, I hope you all are planning on doing lots of fun things and spending lots of quality time with your families.

What is #BlogCrush ?

#BlogCrush is a linky with a difference that I host with wonderful Lucy (Lucy at Home)  .

#BlogCrush – week 11

#BlogCrush – week 11

I’m back!

I know I was technically back hosting last week but I scheduled last week’s linky post way in advance so it doesn’t count. I had the best time ever in Italy, what a beautiful country and after 10 days spent with all my in laws I can say I really feel like I had a proper holiday as everyone was more than willing to look after the boys. I hope you all had a wonderful time over Easter and are getting back into the swing of things now the new term has started, I have really struggled getting Leo to play school on time this week.

Before I get on with the linky, I wanted to share a few snaps from our holidays with you all as I haven’t got around to blogging about it yet ..

Ok, that is enough with the holiday spam, now on to the linky. If you are new here, #BlogCrush is a linky with a loving twist that I co host with Lucy from Lucy At Home. This linky is like no other as along with linking up one of your own posts you are also asked to link up a post from another blogger too. So, if you are here because someone tweeted you saying you are their #BlogCrush then congratulations, you have obviously written something amazing.

If you are a regular linker, welcome back! I love seeing bloggers returning every week to the linky and sharing so much love by commenting on lots of posts – you all ROCK!

Featured #BlogCrush posts

This week my #BlogCrush is Real Mum Reviews. I could so relate to this post as Alex has been hit hard with a sleep regression, I’m exhausted and I am fed up of being told to just sleep when he is sleeping – 10 reasons why ‘Sleep when baby sleeps’ is a STUPID thing to say

#BlogCrush – Week 9

Hi everyone, happy Friday!

Welcome back to #BlogCrush , the linky with a difference that I co host with the wonderful Lucy from Lucy at Home.

I am writing this post over a week in advance as I am currently on holiday in Italy! Lucy is hosting on her own this week so please make sure to give her post lots of love as co hosting a linky is hard enough, doing it all alone is going to take a lot of work. Thank you Lucy for keeping #BlogCrush going this week while I am sunning myself (hopefully) and exploring the beautiful cities of Italy.

Featured #BlogCrush posts

My #BlogCrush this week is The Squirmy Popple, I totally agreed with all of this! – Why women deserve better maternity pay

#BlogCrush linky – Week 8

#BlogCrush linky – Week 8

Hello Lovely people!

Welcome back to #BlogCrush, the linky that I host with lovely Lucy from Lucy At Home.

If you are joining us for the first time, hello! #BlogCrush is all about sharing the blog love and is the only linky out there where you can link up a post from a blogger you love as well as one of your own. There is a lot of self promotion in the blogging world (it is a must if you want to be heard) but the blogging community is also full of lovely supportive people too. If you have read something amazing this week then Lucy and I want you to share it with us, link it up as your #BlogCrush, give it the attention it deserves and make sure you tweet the blogger so they know how much you enjoyed their work.

#BlogCrush linky – Week 7

#BlogCrush linky – Week 7

Hi everyone, happy Friday!

Welcome back to #BlogCrush , the linky with a difference that I co host with the wonderful Lucy from Lucy at Home.

If you are joining us for the first time, hi! #BlogCrush is like no other linky you have joined before, instead of just linking one of your own amazing posts you are also able to link up a post written by another blogger too. So, if you have read something this week that has really struck a chord with you, a post that stood out amongst all the others you have read then Lucy and I would love you to share it with us. Thanks to everyone who joined in last week, I loved reading all your posts, discovering new blogs and finding out who everyone is crushing on.

We have had a pretty relaxed week this week. I had my parents here over the weekend and it was lovely to spend Mother’s Day with my boys but with my own lovely Mum too. I risk sounding like an old woman right now but what has been going on with the weather? Seriously. One day me and Leo were at the park in T shirts and the next we were getting soaked on the play school run. I am looking forward to some proper sun in a couple weeks time when go on our travels to Italy. Hope you have all had a great week and have a lovely weekend planned.

Featured #BlogCrush posts

My #BlogCrush this week is Four Princesses and the Cheese. I loved this post, it is all about the lies and the little threats we tell our kids to try and have an easier life, I could totally relate and actually use quite a lot of the ‘bullshit’ on my three year old – The verbal bags of bullshit that we carry

Lucy’s #BlogCrush this week is Mission: Mindfulness – Mindfulness and Neuroplasticity

Congratulations ladies, if you would like you can grab the featured badge below to display on your blog. Also, if any of you noticed one of your posts featured as someone’s #BlogCrush in the last link up, feel free to grab the badge too 🙂

So, it’s time to grab our #BlogCrush badge and get linking! (p.s there were a few problems with the badge last week, please let me or Lucy know if you have a problem and we will try and fix it for you. I am still trying to figure the techy side of this linky business out so please bear with me!)
