We went urban exploring yesterday. The kids and I walked about 6km from our door on a round trip via the Water of Leith, Dean Village and lunch at the Stockbridge Farmers Market- a great Sunday outing. My Sunday’s have been in a bit of a rut lately so it was good to do something different. Especially when there is so much special stuff on our doorstep. #mumlife #waterofleith #spring #explorelocal #edinburgh #kidlife #scotland
These two have not shut up all day. Cannot imagine what I would do if they didn’t have each other to talk to- because I can’t keep up with them and I suck at poo humor. They walked down the street arm in arm earlier playing a looong game of ‘shut up’ ‘no you shut up’ which only finished when the youngest shouted ‘f$@&’s sake’ to all of Haymarket. They are 4 and 5 right now- it’s not always easy, if you were here right now you would need earplugs - but boy oh boy I love these brothers two. (Especially when they are playing together and leaving me alone to drink my coffee) #mumlife #brothers #kidlife #weekend
Yesterday was party day. We didn’t do anything fancy, just crossed our fingers for some sunshine. Scotland delivered. As soon as the boys saw the table and chairs outside they yelled ‘it’s a party’ and it was. We had 7 hours of kid chaos and adult chat and not a single disposable cup, plate or napkin. My request for recycled gifts was taken up by some families as well which made us ( and the earth) happy. #mumlife #partytime #reducereuserecycle #garden #gardenparty #kidlife
We have a birthday boy in the house this week. Icing the cakes was a meditative session. I was able to touch base with how I am feeling: we have so much to be grateful for; but there is sadness here as well for all the family and friends who aren’t close enough to come to our little party. I bake for love - and also because I quite like the twee aesthetic of them. #allthefeels #baking #cupcake #birthday #family #mumlife #cupcakelove
Rocked the mustard hard today for a chat with some fabulous women about #Waymaking for the @theedinburghbookshop - we talked about women adventurers, what adventure actually means, swimming, snow, resilience and how to encourage folks into the outdoors. It is such a buzz having an essay in this book by @vertebrate_publishing (oh and these legs ran 10k this morning!) #amreading #adventurewriting #womeninadventure #mustardyellow
We visited the Edinburgh Printmakers openday today. Great to see this gem of a building brought back to life... and excited to have a cafe with lovely outdoor space to visit so close to our house. Roll on Summer! #mumlife #edinburghprintmakers #edinburgh #kidlife #art #sunday
