This week we’ve taken away George’s afternoon This week we’ve taken away George’s afternoon nap after spending at least 1 hour every night trying to get him to go down. To help keep him awake in what we call ‘the danger zone’ (2 - 4pm) we’ve been going walking as a family every afternoon. Part of the fun is researching and finding new routes and places to explore. AND George is back falling asleep at 7.30pm and sleeping through the night 🙌🏼 What age did you take away your little ones naps?
So much fun exploring the Dumfries and Galloway. J So much fun exploring the Dumfries and Galloway. Just a half an hour drive from our campground we found this beautiful 5k walk alongside a river in friends full flowers. Poor George got to the end and began fading so we turned his attention to throwing rocks in the river and he perked up 👏🏼❤️ #toddler #countryside #scotland
Excited to share that I’ve secured a job teachin Excited to share that I’ve secured a job teaching in Singapore and we’re moving in August! 🥂✈️🌏🥰👨‍👩‍👦🙌🏼 With Covid, a lot of counties aren’t hiring due to border closures. And it’s been a much longer process than I’d anticipated. I started applying and interviewing in February. Huge weight off our shoulders and we’re super excited to spend the next two years living and working in Singapore 🇸🇬 ❤️👨‍👩‍👦

5 days into the UK mandatory 10 day isolation 🇬 5 days into the UK mandatory 10 day isolation 🇬🇧 Despite flying in from a green country (NZ is considered one of the safest places in the world in terms of Covid) we still gotta isolate 🥴 We returned negative Covid tests and have another test on day 8. You FaceTime a doctor who wants to see you open your test, and swab to ensure you aren’t cheating and then have to tickle your tonsils for 10 seconds then poke it 2.5 centimetres up your nose... And then do it to George... But as you can tell, he’s loving the Scottish weather and found a fidget toy (remember when they were everything?!) and we’re counting down the days until we can go outside! ❤️❤️❤️

This month I turn 35 🙄 - Yet somehow each year This month I turn 35 🙄 - Yet somehow each year keeps getting better. More enjoyable. The older I get the less I care about what other people think. The stronger I become mentally. - The more I invest in myself, my family and close friends. - Parenthood, work and travel pushes you outside of your comfort zone and often you find a resilience and dogged determination that you never knew you possessed. Embrace it. Welcome it. Use it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Dream come true today! 😍 Watching George in his Dream come true today! 😍 Watching George in his element, experiencing something new and loving it! 👌🏼😍☃️ - Rainy day in #auckland so we headed to @snowplanetnz in #silverdale with our 2 year old to grab a coffee and let him watch the snowboarders. - He was so enthusiastic the waitress told us that he was old enough to rent a kit and get out there on the snow...so we thought why the hell not! - 10 minutes later, we’d all rented kit and we were out on the snow zooming about on a toboggan and tubes 💪🏼👨‍👩‍👦🥰 - Tears in the dressing room but as soon as he saw the snow, he was off. When our time was up, George refused to leave!! - He doesn’t look like my baby any more in his gear, he’s such a grown up boy 😭 so proud ❤️

Travelling with a #toddler isn’t always glamorou Travelling with a #toddler isn’t always glamorous 🥴 But when your little one smiles it makes it all worth while! ❤️ - Also you may be holding out until laundry day and on your final clothes 🙄🤣 - We tend to do laundry every 10 days (depends on how dirty George gets) and use @googlemaps to find laundrettes near to where we are staying or that are on route to our next stop 🚌
We’re starting to prepare for our next move in j We’re starting to prepare for our next move in just over 1 month ✈️ - I am an experienced teacher of English and today we heard back from a school in Vietnam for a job I applied for 🇻🇳🤞🏼 - We have been travelling since November last year and we’re looking to secure a two year contract somewhere exotic, where we can fully immerse ourselves into a different culture and travel within a bubble. - Fingers crossed 🤞🏼
Over the last year I’ve been focusing on being k Over the last year I’ve been focusing on being kind to myself physically and mentally ❤️ - I am a big believer in the power of positive affirmations and wake up early in the morning before George, to ensure I get half an hour to myself to start the day with a positive mindset. - Today I am grateful for my son and my fiancé ❤️ Grateful for our health and happiness ❤️ Grateful for their support and unconditional love ❤️ Grateful to be together and achieving our dreams and goals ❤️Grateful for our close family, who love us and invest in our son ❤️ Grateful for our friends and family around the world ❤️ - What are you grateful for? 👇🏼 #affirmations
