A beautiful weekend in Newcastle with the family. Arcades, mountain views, delicious food, drinks & laughter. Just what the doctor ordered. And to end it with a bang? There's nothing like a track & trace ping to isolate due to being in close contact with someone with covid. So, I'm under house arrest 🤣 with a negative PCR covid test and its a week off work, replaced with housework for me! How was your weekend? 😅 #newcastle #countydown #northernireland #beachlife #seasidetown #developinglife #niphotography #discoverunder10k #thehonestlens #photooftheday #parenthood_moments #igmotherhood #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising #lifecloseup #littlefierceones #momswithcameras #thisparentlife #dailyparenting #documentyourdays #tbcsmiles #seekmoments #tiredmumsclub #stronggirlsclub #ukparentbloggers #ukmumsquad #dearestviewfinder #dearphotographer #capturingcolour #bloggersofinstagram (at Newcastle, Co.

Segas face is a pure mood. And its EXACTLY how I feel about the heat today! MY FAIR FRECKLED IRISH SKIN WAS AND IS NOT BUILT FOR SUCH TEMPERATURES! 🥵😰😆 Also, look after your pets! This heat plus fur?

This heatwave is amazing, but feels like hellfire at the same time! 🥵 What temperature did you reach today?

This afternoon after work was all about the Pokemon Go Festival, sunshine, street food and time with my teenager. It's been kind of awesome! #dayslikethese #belfastblogger #pokemongofestival #pokemongo #Belfast #titanicquarter #superbusymum #northernireland #belfastgirl #capturingcolour #seekmoments #thehonestlens #motherhoodunplugged #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #documentyourdays #discoverunder10k #pursuitofjoyproject #magicofchildhood #lifecloseup #littlestoriesofmylife #igmotherhood #momswithcameras #ukparentbloggers (at Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRb9AudM4ns/?utm_medium=tumblr

My teenage daughter is now employed! 🎉 I cannot quite believe she is at the age to have a job...but here we are! So proud of her and I wish her all the best with it all! What an exciting new chapter, eh! And the nice paycheck helps! 😅💰 #developinglife #superbusymum #ukmumsquad #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #pursuitofjoyproject #momswithcameras #ukparentbloggers #momtogs #seekmoments #tiredmumsclub #motherhoodunplugged #capturingmotherhood #igmotherhood #littlestoriesofmylife #discoverunder10k #thehonestlens #illuminatedchildhood #superbusymum #belfastblogger #belfastgirl #niblogger #rememberingthesedays #dearphotographer #lifecloseup #littlefierceones (at Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRZUfIeMKhw/?utm_medium=tumblr

Last night, when tidying and decluttering Annabelles side of the bedroom...I found an array of weird & unusual things. However, finding a clump of hair in the drawer of her jewellery box, that she wished to keep (following her hair snipping fiasco a few weeks ago). ✂️ He is her 'hair monster' and his name is "Bob" 😅 So following this, I want to know the weirdest or funniest things you've found in your childs bedroom! This doesn't quite top my daughter Ellies attempt at hatching an egg (from the fridge!) under her pillow! It's close though! 🤣 #kidsarefunny #funny #kidsofinstagram #developinglife #superbusymum #ukparentbloggers #ukmumsquad #dearestviewfinder #seekmoments #dearphotographer #photooftheday #parenthood_moments #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #pursuitofjoyproject #momswithcameras #clickinmoms #thehonestlens #pursuitofjoyproject #magicofchildhood #pursuitofhappiness #funnykids #northernireland #belfastgirl #capturingcolour (at Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRW2C0GMt3i/?utm_medium=tumblr

A lovely afternoon out with my three youngest to the @ulstermuseum & Botanic Gardens. The teenager was off with her boyfriend when I took this but I couldn't not share it. This pair have been the best of friends one minute and at eachothers throats the next. It's mind melting and this afternoon has been no different. But its those little moments that they do get along that I live for. #rememberingthesedays #documentyourdays #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #pursuitofjoyproject #discoverunder10k #northernirelandtourism #discoverni #superbusymum #seekmoments #thehonestlens #motherhoodunplugged #igmotherhood #ukmumsquad #ukparentbloggers #momswithcameras #clickinmoms #dearestviewfinder #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising #littlefierceones #littlestoriesofmylife #belfastblogger #belfastgirl #niblogger #photooftheday (at Botanic Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRUQS__Mz7v/?utm_medium=tumblr

Little Miss Mabel has been with us for just over 1 week now and its like she's always been here. Sega is also (very) slowly getting used to her too. It will take a while, but they're going in the right direction which is good. But I mean...LOOK at her! 😍 #kittensofinstagram #catscatscats #littlemissmabel #furbabymama #developinglife #superbusymum #photooftheday #bestphotooftheday #documentyourdays #pursuitofjoyproject #thehonestlens #northernireland #lifecloseup #discoverunder10k #belfastblogger #niblogger #belfastbloggers #bloggersofinstagram #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #clickinmoms #momswithcameras #ukparentbloggers (at Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRRs74PMszX/?utm_medium=tumblr

Its the last day of my 4 days off work. And my goodness, they've flown by! Gutted! 🤣 But I've also loved it. Today I plan to relax with friends round, drink copious amounts of tea, eat a delicious lunch and just enjoy the day. I hope your Thursday is as relaxed and food filled as mine aims to be! 😍🖖🤪 #relaxingtime #documentyourdays #pursuitofjoyproject #thehonestlens #northernireland #superbusymum #belfastblogger #belfastgirl #niblogger #niphotography #momswithcameras #clickinmoms #dearestviewfinder #motherhoodunplugged #dailyparenting #motherhoodrising #dailyparenting #discoverunder10k #lifecloseup #littlestoriesofmylife #familybloggers #ukparentbloggers #ukmumsquad #momtogs (at Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRDq_4Bsgrp/?utm_medium=tumblr

Amusement arcades & tickets. Kids go absolutely bonkers for them 🤣 We spent the afternoon at the new @airtasticni in Newtownabbey. We hit the inflatapark, which was loads of fun. Had a game of space mini golf which was good craic, ate in the NY Diner (the food was delicious) and finally spent a small fortune in the arcade. 💰 An expensive day, but a fun one! We will be back though as some of the arcades in our new Airtastic NI are amazing! #summervibes #airtasticni #newtownabbey #developinglife #dearestviewfinder #dearphotographer #lifecloseup #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #pursuitofjoyproject #discoverunder10k #northernirelandtourism #discoverni #superbusymum #seekmoments #thehonestlens #kidsactivities #ni4kids #familyfun #northernireland #documentyourdays #tbcsmiles #ukparentbloggers #ukmumsquad #igmotherhood #littlestoriesofmylife #ukmummyblogger (at Airtastic Entertainment Centres NI) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRCOODss_vd/?utm_medium=tumblr

On the blog today, I've shared our walk along the Blackhead Path in Whitehead. A really gorgeous walk to take with the family this summer!

Instagram, meet Mabel. Mabel, meet Instagram. 😻😍 Isn't she the sweetest little thing! Mabel is our newest addition to the family. She is a little calico and full of sass and sweetness in equal measure. It's only been one day, but she's settled in well. Her first night also went fine and even though the introduction to Sega will be a slow process, everything is grand. Beware the incoming of Mabel spam on my stories! 🤣 We are all besotted with her and hopefully Sega will be too, in time! 🤞😍 #developinglife #catsofinstagram #calicocats #kittensofinstagram #calicocatsofinstagram #superbusymum #ukmumsquad #ukparentbloggers #momswithcameras #northernireland #documentyourdays #discoverunder10k #pursuitofjoyproject #thehonestlens #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising #igmotherhood #littlestoriesofmylife #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #clickinmoms #photooftheday #bestphotooftheday #lifecloseup #littlefierceones (at Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ847xusLfa/?utm_medium=tumblr

A new addition arrives in our home this evening...and I am so keen to see how this one adapts to the new furbaby! 😻 Fingers crossed the furry introduction goes well!! 🤞 #furbabylove #furbaby #catsofinstagram #blackcatsrule #developinglife #dearestviewfinder #dearphotographer #capturingcolour #northernireland #belfastgirl #niblogger #livebeautifully #bestphotooftheday #photooftheday #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #pursuitofjoyproject #discoverunder10k #thehonestlens #momswithcameras #clickinmoms #ukparentbloggers #ukmumsquad #momtogs #igmotherhood #littlestoriesofmylife # (at Newtownabbey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ6gChJsoyo/?utm_medium=tumblr

Basketball mad! 🏀 I don't know where it's come from, but she LOVES basketball. Her auntie bought her, her first basketball for Christmas and her Daddy & her would go to the local park to play each evening before bed. It's their thing #cute However, some nights, there would be loud and rowdy kids at the local park and she couldn't play. Annabelle being Annabelle, this made her sad. So, she bought herself her own basketball stand from @smythstoys with the rest of her birthday money and I don't think she will ever come inside again! 🤣🏀 #outdoorsandhappy #northernireland #basketball #sportsphotography #developinglife #dearestviewfinder #actionshot #superbusymum #ukmumsquad #ukparentbloggers #momswithcameras #pursuitofjoyproject #thehonestlens #photooftheday #parenthood_moments #seekmoments #thehonestlens #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising #dailyparenting #thisparentlife #clickinmoms #discoverunder10k #niblogger #belfastblogger #rememberingthesedays #documentyourdays #outdoorslife #myhappycapture #kidsofinstagram (at Northern Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ30tSfMtld/?utm_medium=tumblr
