MEET LYDIA

A twenty-something mum of one living in London and blogging her way through motherhood. 9 till 5 I work as a Product Specialist but in my spare time I transform into a blogger. With a camera, a laptop and whatever time my son allows me, I share my version of mum-ing it as a single mum.

So have a look around and make yourself at home! x

Me: “You’re gonna be 10 months old soon baba, you know that?” Him: *swipe left for 10 month dance* 😂 . . . And just like that, he turned 10 months today. Which means he’ll soon be 1 soon! Can’t believe I’m gonna have a 1 year old in 2 months 😱 a whole me!! Not gonna lie, life is moving too fast you know but in a good way. Just wish it would let me catch my breath a bit. . . . Happy 10 month birthday to the coolest 10 month old I know! #cringemummoment #hethinksimcooltoo

I survived my first week back from maternity leave and even managed to take an uninterrupted selfie (or 50) as evidence. Yay me!!! Although going back to work wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be it certainly was different. Very different. It’s gonna take some getting used to but change is always good. I embrace it and make it work for me 😉 So if I look like this on one day and something else on another, I’m not a catfish, I’m embracing change and you should embrace it too! I’m also a mum and the effort to look cute takes time I no longer have #TheMumLife

Wow, is it really me that’s going back to work on Monday after 9 months of nothing but sleepless nights, smelly pooh and baby talk. A whole me? June you’re really coming at me like the aliens in X-men Dark Phoenix (which was really disappointing by the way). I knew this day would come but wow I didn’t think it would come this quick. Needless to say I’m excited to get back to something non baby related and judging by how well Matthew has taken to nursery I think he agrees 😅 #MamaNeedsALife #DistanceMakesTheHeartGrowFonder #ImAboutToExperienceNewLevelsOfTired #ItsWorthIt

Excuse me June, why you coming fast! The fact that I managed to miss my flight back to London by getting the date mixed up and wasn’t as mad about it as I thought I’d be proved that I was not ready to come back. This life of bills and responsibilities is just too much. I don’t want to be a grown up anymore. I wanna be Matthew 😩 #BabiesHaveMoreFun #IfOnlyFreakyFridayWasReal

@gauchogroup have you met your Brazilian cousin @fogogaucho ? Lives in Kenya, maybe from your mother’s side. Anyways, here’s an idea, why don’t you both meet up in London and do something crazy like I don’t know, a Brazilian meets Argentinian all you can eat meat buffet with unlimited salad and that good good wine or something like that. My stomach and I would gratefully appreciate this link up. Let me know what you think 😉#longlostcousins #familyreunion #doitfortheculture
