HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOUTH POTION ✨❤️

It’s been a whole year since Tropic introduced Youth Potion the world’s first natural retinal serum, and my skin has never felt better

24/09/2024

For National Eczema Week 2023 I wanted to share my babies eczema experience, what caused it and how I manage it

15/09/2024

I had suffered with painful eczema and sensitised skin on my face for around 5 years until I discovered Tropic 😣

It was debilitating in that it changed my personality because I was always in pain! Tropic truly changed my life which is why I’m so passionate about it now 🫶🏻

I’m resharing these slides from last years with a little update about the gut because I think that’s so important. I also have a post about it on my blog (link in bio) which goes into more detail.

If every you have any questions about eczema or have experienced symptoms like me and the GP hasn’t been able to help. Please do reach out and get in touch 💚

In this post, I’ll explore the key benefits of organic skincare and why choosing COSMOS certified products by the Soil Association matters.

{adventures with my boy} How nice is this view 😍 Me and Ol took a walk down to the bottom of this path & discovered a hidden beach while Ettie stayed singing songs in the van with her Dad… I didn’t really appreciate how long his little legs had carried him until we got back up to the top 😍

S U R P R I S E! 👶🏼🌻 So I’ve been hiding a little secret for a while now & have been a bit nervous about sharing it ✨.. but I’m just home from the hospital and all appears well so delighted to now share that there’ll be a new member of the Faith fam joining us in November 💛✨ To say we’re excited would be an understatement ... although not drinking in lockdown has been hard😉🌟🥰

Following on from Ettie’s interview as a three year old, we decided to follow it up with some questions about lockdown! Thank you to my friend Sue for the questions 💕🥰

20/05/2020

A friend at work sent me these interview questions so I interviewed Ettie for her first job! She enjoyed it so much she wanted to do it twice (with totally different answers the second time 😂) Its quite long so don’t expect you to watch it to the end - just a bit of fun for the weekend!) - going to try the chocolate challenge next! 🍫

We’ve had a bit of excitement this week. Our kitchen which was photographed for over a year ago has made its way into the magazine and I didn’t even realise until a lovely person on here tagged me in to tell me☺️ ... cue a quick run to the shops to to buy up all the copies for family members! :) Definitely a good way to make lockdown more exciting! It’s on sale now if you fancy having a nosey 🥂 !! @ Stay at Home and Keep Positive

✨Ikea Kitchen Hack ✨ I’ve had a go at sprucing up Ettie’s play kitchen and am pretty pleased with the results. It’s something we’ve been meaning to do for ages but always prioritised other things. A couple of weekends ago Stu was doing jobs round the house and so I took a trip down to the shed to see what supplies we had and this is what we managed to achieve ✨ Pretty much my dream kitchen in miniature! 🖤 Chances of it ever staying this tidy... absolutely Zero but least I managed to get some photos 😆🍉

I’ve popped a little ‘How To guide’ below https://thehalcyonyears.com/2020/03/05/ikea-play-kitchen-ramp/ explaining how we did it and the materials we used. let me know what you think ☺️ @ Brighton

Ad| H a p p y F r i d a y! ✨ We’ve made it to the weekend! Half term this week means all Ettie’s usual classes have been cancelled so we’re having a lazy morning chilling in our PJs.... Jokes... 😆 who can chill with a 1 year old and a 3 year old around 🤪 The fantasy was a good excuse to show off my new PJs though..

Ad| I’ve been adding a few bits and pieces to Ollie’s room recently to make it feel more cosy and one of them has been this little grey rug from ⚡️ I love how it finishes the room off and the non-slip back makes it ideal for when he’s tearing around on that little car! 🚗

Evening all ... my Mam is down at the moment so she free’d me up some time this afternoon to run a brush through my hair and try on my favourite pieces from the spring 2020 collection (I still can’t get over the fact we’re in 2020!!) 😱🌤🌾 You can see everything I picked out - including this cute little Lara Jumper on my IGTV and I’m just about to pop the links on my website in case you need to find them again in the future!

Happy freaking Friday ✨ so close to the weekend! We have yoga🧘‍♀️ this morning, gymnastics 🤸‍♀️ this afternoon then ending the day with a chippy tea! 🎣 🍟 I’d like to say the physical efforts were mine so I’d be deserving of the fish and chips, but unfortunately all I’ll be doing is the driving! 🤷🏼‍♀️ Happy Friday folks ✨

The best thing about having the worlds longest lasting cold, is that I can’t smell his stinky nappies 😉💩 although I can’t taste anything either, so other than having pong free nappy changes there aren’t many benefits so if my nose would clear at some point this week that would be grand! 🤧 ta!

Looking for childcare solutions but don't know where to begin. Ive just popped up a little review of Childcare.co.uk |Ad https://thehalcyonyears.com/2020/01/23/childcare-solutions-with-childcare-co-uk-ad/

Working out the cost of putting two children in nursery made us a little green around the gills so we used childcare.co.uk to search for a childminder

Hi Ho, Hi Ho it's back to worn I go...... 👩‍💻 Two weeks off, will my brain even remember the passwords to get into my computer when I get there??

Looks serene, but out of shot I've got a scooter 🛴 a double buggy, a bike 🚲 and two toddlers that don't want to travel in either 😜

Stepping into the new year ready to teach these two a couple of lifes big lessons, like you can actually ask Alexa to do more than just play Christmas music and that eating chocolate for breakfast is just a cruel game adults play in December! 😉

Happy New Year to you🌟🥂 If last year was a tough one for you, I hope this year brings you happiness 🌟🥂 #2020
