#AD | Most of us are combining learning and playin

#AD | Most of us are combining learning and playing on a daily basis but ideas are running thin. Why not gather some recyclables around the house and try these Spring Flower Boxes. We have been crafting to #BeatTheBoredom with @Ryman using our recyclables to stay #StayThrifty whilst giving our stationery a refresh. With old cereal boxes and old used straws we made some fun, colorful Spring flower Boxes to give to our loved ones that we haven’t been able to see during lockdown. They would also make amazing Mother’s Day gifts coming up too! They are so easy to make, pop over to our stories to see how! We used some Math learning while we were figuring how many pedals and leaves each flower box needed and more learning while crafting by measuring with a ruler too. It’s easy to learn and play while crafting and more importantly so much fun! Go on #ShowUsHowYouMakeIt too - we want to see! Tag us!

I don’t want to....yup I think that sums up ever

I don’t want to....yup I think that sums up everyone’s start to this week. It is definitely apparent that everyone is sick of homeschool and sick of lockdown all over the world. Whilst we will have more answers tonight and school returns March 8th I am praying with everyone bone in my body that as we open up there will never be another lockdown. I don’t think me or the kids would make it in Lockdown v.4. I am now just focusing on getting the most out of the kids being home for two more weeks. Not pressuring them too much not overwhelming myself too much. Now all I need is the gym to open up so I can get rid of the lockdown spare tire I have gained from not moving enough at home. One walk a day just isn’t enough. Good luck this week everyone!!!! #backtoschool #schoolisback #schoolisbackinsession #schoolisinsession #homeschoolinglife #homeschooluk #homeschoolinguk #homeschoolmum #homeschoolmum

Daddy survived his eye surgery yesterday. For some

Daddy survived his eye surgery yesterday. For some that are eye squeamish you can understand whilst loads of people get lasic it can be awful for others. Men shouldn’t be patients though he wouldn’t let me help him put eye drops in even though he kept dropping them on his eyebrows at first. He hates anyone near his eyes 😬 He paced our hotel room for most of the night in pain. It was a sleepless one but I felt helpless bless him. He said it was rather painful first few hours but we are back home and have had his check up this morning to make sure all was well. Now I am hoping his eyesight is better because he was blind as a bat before. I did joke though now he will see all my wrinkles clearly instead of blurry so I hope he still fancies me. Lol 😝 But three kids and a patient is exhausting early bed tonight. Hotel was eerie quiet. Felt weird to stay over but almost nice to have an evening without a trillion mommy mommy mommy instead it was wifey wifey wifey 🤔🤣🤣😝😝 Hope you all are having a good weekend. #lifecloseup

House is tidy, kids are in bed and I think a bath

House is tidy, kids are in bed and I think a bath and a good book is calling my name. How is everyone finding half term? I don’t think the weather even knows what it’s doing either? Of course we took a walk and another walk. Pretty much all we can do. Played board games, did puzzles, crafted, baked and kids are completely iPad blind as I call it. Eek but hopefully there is light at the end of the tunnel and we don’t ever have to be lockdown again. One can dream ..... right 🧐

We pulled ourselves out of the house today. With w

We pulled ourselves out of the house today. With warmer temperatures and rain threatening the rest of the week we had to whether we felt like it or not. Once we got out there we all felt better for it. What turned out a new little path we found behind our house turned into a two and half hour walk. We returned home with noodle legs and rose kissed cheeks. I think these two needed to just run wild through the woods and fields without restrictions of any kind. I don’t know about your house but we are finding lockdown this time hard. Half term stuck inside this time hard. Not seeing friends and family harder. We need light at the end of the tunnel soon. Most days I can pick myself up but I will admit I am finding it harder to do so I am in a funk. Kids are bored and I am running out of ideas. So today was just what we needed. Just get out with no plan. No rush to get back. We did get rained on slightly but it was ok because it is finally warmer out. We have celebrated with pizza ordered in and movie night after church tonight. I am hoping tomorrow I wake up on the right side of the bed 🤔🤞🏻🤪 #lifecloseup #lockdownfunk #haftermfun #snaphappybritmums

Happy Monday....we are giving today a huge thumbs

Happy Monday....we are giving today a huge thumbs up because we got a lie in, we have no lessons today, and the temperatures are warming up! That’s a whole lot to be excited over. Half term is here. Hope everyone recharges this week. Soaks up the quieter routines. I plan on reading a whole lot and even though I still have to work the burden on school isn’t on me so I feel relieved. This one loves having everyone at his finger tips all day too. Living his best life.. #lifecloseup #snapyhappybritmums #halfterm #halftermfun #halftermactivities #halftermbreak #halftermholiday #halftermholidays #februaryhalfterm #halfterm2021 #halftermhappiness

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY to ALL❤️ I hope like this

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY to ALL❤️ I hope like this one you have baked up a storm all week and have a pile of treats to indulge in today! I hope despite not being able to go out you have some movies piled up too for a snuggly night in because it’s absolutely freezing out today. I hope those that are in isolation or can’t be with loved ones of friends or family know they are loved and my inbox is always open if you feel alone. I truly mean that. Anyone that follows me here can vouch for me too I am here for you if you need. Hug your kids close, your partners too if you got them but don’t forget to hug yourself and love yourself because that’s the most important kind of love - self love! And we all deserve it what we have all been going thru and dealing with the past year. Happy LOVE day to YOU!!!! #lifecloseup #snaphappybritmums Valentine’s Day to all! #valentinesday2021 #vday #vday2021 #happyvalentinesday #happyvalentinesday❤️ #happyvalentinesday❤ #happyvalentinesday💕 #valentinesday❤️ #valetine #valetines #valentinescupcakes #valetinesdaycupcakes #cupcakes #cupcakesofinstagram

She has been celebrating Valentine’s Day all wee

She has been celebrating Valentine’s Day all week. It’s definitely her fave holiday. She has been making endless vday cards for the entire family that I have to still mail shhh don’t tell her. She has been baking something different every day for tomorrow. We have cupcakes and chocolate hearts to eat tomorrow. Our candy tray long gone from last nights movie nights. You can pop over to @letstalkfoodie check out recipes for them. She is so full of love to give and generosity to celebrate. Normally I would have to ask her to dress up for snaps for Halloween or Christmas but not #valentinesday❤️ she happily has worn hearts all week including her heart pjs she begging me for from the @nextofficial catalog. I love how much she loves to share and show her love!!!! #valentinesday2021 #vday2021 #valentinesdayideas #lifecloseup #snaphappybritmums #vday

We did it! HALF TERM IS HERE! Oh gosh I didn’t t

We did it! HALF TERM IS HERE! Oh gosh I didn’t think we were going to make it this time if I am brutally honest. We might have given up a few times today too. Not going to lie there has been a lot of shouting, tantrums and even the baby will be relieved that we are all less stressed around him next week. This is how we feel today we will have to show our excitement tomorrow because we just have no more energy left to do much else tonight other than lie here and order something from Uber eats. This mama is done. These kids are exhausted. Hooray for a week of no schedules, no teams, no wifi dropping, no trying to work, parent, homeschool, cook and clean - wait actually scratch that I still have to do all those things hahaha but one less thing is a big bonus. Have a wonderful half term everyone I know no one is where they had planned to be for it (we are supposed to be in Hawaii right now kills me) but we have our health, our homes and our kids snuggle up and recharge those batteries if you can! #halfterm2021 #halfterm #halftermfun #snappyhappybritmums #lifecloseup
