We were back to work this week after Easter but there has still been plenty to smile about! Nathan – he left for his job in Spain as an entertainer at a Thomson hotel on Tuesday morning. He will be out there for six months and I will miss him so so much, but I … Continue reading →

I am officially three quarters of the way through now, yay! With just ten weeks left time seems to be going really fast. This week baby Twinkle could be as much as 3.5lbs (1.6kg) and 43cm (17 inches) which is apparently around the size of a cantaloupe or a platypus (minus the tail!) She is … Continue reading →

Another week has whizzed by and (as this post is a couple of days late) there is less than 11 weeks to go until we meet baby Twinkle. This week she is about as big as a pineapple and could be around 40.5cm and might weigh almost 3lb (1.35kg). The next few weeks will be … Continue reading →

This week has been another really busy one, the Easter holidays have been pretty packed full. Here's what has been making me smile this week: Easter holidays – the school holidays are the main reason I do the job I do! To be able to spend them together is so important to us and makes … Continue reading →

Our mini ‘babymoon’

This week me and Mr T managed a couple of days away WITHOUT ANY KIDS!! With baby Twinkle due in less than 12 weeks we decided at the last minute to take what will probably be our last chance for some time together and have a mini 'babymoon' before she arrives.  Tinker was heading to … Continue reading →

Hello third trimester! Another week has gone by very fast and there are now only 12 weeks left until we meet our little Twinkle. I am feeling so excited to meet her and this just increases as the weeks go by.  This week Twinkle measures somewhere around 40cm and is as big as a coconut … Continue reading →

I was doing so well posting every week in this series but I've managed to fall a bit behind again – oh well, better late than never. This post will just have to be more of a fortnight of smiles to catch up! So what's been making me smile recently: It's the Easter holidays! Two … Continue reading →

The best £9.55 we ever spent

When I first suggested getting National Trust memberships a few weeks ago I could tell that Mr T was a bit half-hearted about it. If I'm honest, I felt a bit the same, I knew Milly would LOVE it (she might be 17, but she's actually middle-aged in spirit!) and I thought it would be ok for … Continue reading →

The weeks are rolling around so fast but it still feels like Twinkle's due date is a long way off yet. I am really starting to feel the physical limitations of being pregnant now, I'm just getting so big, I feel heavy and slow and all the pregnancy niggles like swollen feet and heartburn have … Continue reading →

Pregnancy days – feeling a bit meh

Posted on April 1, 2017 by Tinker and Totsy • Leave a comment

The last 24 hours I've felt a bit meh. We all have those days sometimes I guess, but pregnancy can be hard going at times, making them a bit more likely. I have to say that I honestly do absolutely love being pregnant most of the time (though as you read through this post it … Continue reading →
