W is for . . . Where for art thou Crunchy?

Where am I?

Here I am!!

The juggle between uni, motherhood, Love and a somewhat clean house, left little time for my poor neglected blog! I miss the relaxation of writing and connecting with the wonderful people I have met....so guess what?

Im Back!

and better than ever! I have posts scheduled, products reviewed, training to (re)start and a blog to show some love too! I just hope it missed me as much as I missed it.

What has happened since I left?

Well I have a 9 Month old! Yep 9 months! and boy oh boy is he clever!
He claps and waves, he hi fives and shakes his head to say no. He says dad, nan, ta, this (what this?) hi, yeah, no and tries to say pup (he gets the pah out) still no mum (its ok, its not like i birthed him and feed him or anything)! He also pulls up on EVERYTHING and took a few steps behind his walker today!

Oh and he has no hair...

...and no teeth. But he is totally perfect! (mumma brag over)


I have totally nerded myself out, I spend all my spare time studying. Which as crazy as it may sound, is amazing! Im loving my course so much and I even have my first placement coming up soon!
Being a midwife is going to be fantastic, im even considering a placement for a couple of weeks overseas. But we will see how that goes!

Life is busy, its stressful and its totally crazy fitting everything in on very little sleep (im sure he will sleep through eventually right?) but it is amazing, I am more happy than I have ever been in my life!
I have found my calling
my happy place
I feel like I am on the exact path im meant to be on!

Bring on the future!


Whats new with everyone else?
Update me on the goss!

H is for . . . Happy

I have been down and out. I have been to the lowest of lows. I have felt like the world was over, my world was over.
Being a teenager is hard for everyone, I felt this, maybe harder than a lot of people. I also felt this way for bits after E was born.
Many people suffer Post Natal Depression and I wish it upon no one. I felt useless, helpless, like I was doing everything wrong. When I was there, in that darkness, I felt as though there was no end to the sadness. But one day, the sun came out and I felt better.
It still strikes every now and then, in much smaller doses. But I feel 100 times better than I did, and for that I feel Happy and I feel thankful.

Today my little family went for a visit to the beach. It made me think about how lucky I am, today, in this moment and in that moment, I am happy. From the very bottom of my heart to the tips of my toes, I am overwhelming happy with life! I feel so blessed to have everything I have, and even with a little man who is seriously unhappy about his upcoming teeth, I am happy.

So linking up on my most favourite day, with my most favourite blogger "Six by the Bay" For Thankful Thursday, I am so very thankful to be happy!

What are you thankful for?

B is for . . . Back!!

As in me, being back! I have missed the land of blog and im back and better than ever.

E's first christmas was amazing he was the perfect little man and got spoilt rotten! And we had an amazing time with both our families!

We saw in the new year, asleep! Which was amazing considering the lack of sleep that had preceeded the day.

And we spent a night away in Ballarat as a family which was one of the most beautiful and amazing mini vacations I have ever had. Time spent with the family is always incredible.

Little E is SIX months old now and we introduced solids with the baby lead weaning approach and he is loving it and is already an amazing eater. We are still working on getting him to love sleep as much as he loves food though haha.

And then there is me, im new and improved, im happier than I have ever been, im getting rid of those baby pounds and im super excited to update everyone on some hints and tips I have found.

So stay tuned, I promise its worth it!
