For Connor’s party I was indecisive for weeks whether I was going to make or buy a cake. At the very last minute (literally a few days before) I decided to order one... and I’m so glad I did. This creation from @cakedateperth_ was beautiful! Nadia was a gem, catering (literally) to all my whims and last minute ideas 😄💙 Plus it was freakin’ delicious... we got gluten-free chocolate with a pecan caramel filling. And there were leftovers which I promptly ate for breakfast the next day 😂🍰 Thanks Nadia for your brilliant work!

Happy birthday little man 🎈🎈🎈

One of my favourite pics from Connor’s first bday party on the weekend. Of me at least... what face he’s pulling, I don’t know 😂❤️

I just realised I’ve hit more than 1000 Instagram posts! 😵✨💜 • Gosh that’s a lot of time spent on this app. Totally worth it though - mostly because I’ve made some pretty incredible friends out of it. (Notably @healthhappinessandheels @mrs__gooseygardner @healthyfrenchwife! 3 amazing women!) • I learned a long time ago you can let social media be a trap where you’re chained to mindlessly scrolling, or you can decide to make it what you want - in my case, that’s something that allows me to connect more frequently and deeply with people. And make new friends. That’s pretty awesome. #attitudeiseverything • I’ve also learned not to compare myself to anyone or anything I see. The grass is greener where you water it. No comparison anxiety for me 🙅🏻‍♀️ • I’ve learnt a bunch of other things over the years... after having a think about it, these are my top highlights. • 1. Previously I would have edited this photo of me so my forehead would look less wrinkly. But having children has been a fast-track to self acceptance. How am I supposed to teach someone else they’re worthy and valuable if I don’t feel the same about myself? So no editing. No stupid FaceTune blurring. A cute filter every now and then, sure. But this is what I look like. • 2. I used to pride myself on being that Type-A girl who made colour-coded lists and scheduled things months in advance. I’ve since realised that I was trying to control things because I didn’t trust my gut instincts. The only way I could change this was to change life completely, which is why in 2016 Ben and I packed up our lives to travel and live overseas for 2 years. All the travel clichés are true - it was the scariest yet best thing ever I’ve ever done. (BTW, I still love making lists! But now because they’re helpful to stay organised and accountable, not because I’m scared I won’t be productive without one.) • Continued in the comments 👇🏼

I posted this on my stories already but it was too cute not to share in my profile. My darling baby boy is 10 months! (Well, not such a baby anymore!) • Almost ready to walk, 4 teeth and 2 on the way, so much energy and curiosity, massive attitude already (I bet his first word will be ‘no’ 🤣)... and I wouldn’t have it any other way 💙

Thanks for the free coffee @maystreetlarder_mezz! The opening this morning was buzzing 🎉 I’ve loved @eamon_sullivan’s restaurants since he opened @louisbaxters way back in 2011 when I worked across the road at Scoop Magazine. So you can imagine how excited I was when I saw a new one opening literally 2 minutes from my house 😍 The coffee didn’t disappoint and the food looked awesome too. Definitely my new local ☕️

Leggings/gym gear in general. #sorrynotsorry @mariekondo. #activewearislife • What’s the one thing you wouldn’t declutter?!✖️ • (Also in all honesty I think she’s great 😄)

Instead of buying fresh flowers, I love simple greenery instead. I picked these stems from the side of the road when I went walking this morning. Free and easy! 🌿
