May has been a really great month for us. We kicked it off with a little caravan holiday in Dorset and it was just what we all needed – a total break from routine and being away from home meant all those niggling chores weren’t staring us in the face. Instead we came back with a renewed vigor to continue our decluttering mission which we started over a year ago.

We’ve also had some wonderful developments from Matilda, and although I sob at how fast she’s growing, it is amazing to watch her develop and grow.

And of course, the sunshine! What a difference that has made.

 So that was May. This time last year I was struggling with nausea and dealing with pregnancy anxiety and now we have our dear little Matilda Alice here with us; simply amazing.
