Finding Joy In Small Things

I post about our beautiful British Shorthair cat Electra as well as daily life with The Lovely Husband. Our daughter was born in February 2019 my life is all about learning!

I post 100% original content.

I also post daily on my other blog, 'thefoodarchivist.tumblr'...come and check that out if you'd like some meal ideas :)

Made a bunch of wands for Cosima and some of her friends who came for a visit. She’s obsessed with magic and casting spells… 🥰

I love to capture how Cosima holds my hand because it makes me so happy and I know she’ll continue to grow so quickly 🥰

Seeing an image like this, after the moment; brings back the feeling to me and I want to keep that because it’s as close as I can get to bottling it

Cosima made gingerbread mini bears. She’s getting quite good at stamping out biscuits and carefully transferring them to the baking tray 🥰

I do love a giant bow. Extra points for forest green velvet to match the nursery uniform

Tostock animal park. All the animals are gorgeous but the white peacocks are particularly adorable, they gently peck the food from your hands 🦚 🥰

Was very happy to have my second jab on Tuesday!

The side effects for me were very different to what I experienced after the first one. This time I didn’t get a fever, chills etc but I was just really wiped out the next day. Today I expected to be 100% well again, as last time I was all better after 24 hours, but today I felt worse that yesterday- really fluey and have had a bad headache.

Hope the side effects go soon! In the meantime an early night is due :)

Got jabbed!

I felt extremely ill for 24 hours and got nursed by Electra through my day in bed 🙂

Then I felt all better and super happy to be vaccinated
