It’s been some time since I last posted on my blog and quite a few entries should have appeared before this one, but I couldn’t resist sharing this celebration in the Hewlett household – Charlotte turning 5. “Mummy, am I actually 5 today? Is it really my birthday?” Charlotte whispered in my ear on her … Continue reading
Charlotte was awake before anyone in the house, well apart from Grand-dad who always wakes early. By half past seven we were wondering where our usual ‘morning call’ was and decided to get up, thinking Charlotte may even be having a lye-in! Har, har, no such luck, she was patiently waiting with Grand-dad for her … Continue reading
It only seems like yesterday when I first met my baby girl, I remember so well the moment she was placed in my arms; so tiny and new, completely helpless and fully dependent on me to love, nurture and care for her. Then again, on the other hand, so much has happened in those 3 … Continue reading
Today has been rather strange; it consists of 5 oxymoron’s and 1 tautology (oxygenius!) Today’s Oxymoron’s: Too much sleep A successful weigh-in A relaxing toddler birthday party Lots of dry washing Quiet afternoon tea with a mummy friend A blessed trip to A&E Today’s Tautology Answer to prayer I woke with a splitting headache, probably … Continue reading
Happy 50th Birthday Julie. You’d never believe my beautiful sister turned 50 the other day, not only does she only look about 40 but she acts and behaves like a child most of the time bringing joy, laughter (and sometimes embarrassment!) to those around her.

It is tradition that we meet up with Sue and Simon for a meal on our birthdays. Sue and Jez share a birthday and this year we went to a Turkish restaurant in Eastleigh. When the place opened a couple of years ago it was really great, the decor, atmosphere and food was fantastic, the … Continue reading
Charlotte was 2 in August 2010, William was 3 months old and I was not very well (see Bi-Polar). However, I managed to throw together a party of some sorts involving party food and party bags. Originally it was going ot be some kind of pool-party, I had visions of all her friends and … Continue reading
Charlotte was 1 year old in August 2009. For her bithday we didn’t hold a party as felt that would be pointless, but we did invite family over for some snacks and time together. Charlotte was up and walking by the time she was 1 and was fairly good at making her feelings known. … Continue reading
My 30th Birthday was one I’ll always remember. We spent it in Sentein and a few of my friends flew over to join us which was lovely. The highlight of my birthday was that the entire village had organised a ‘surprise’ party for me. Almost everyone we knew was there and in the mood to … Continue reading
