Snapshot

Getting a bit sick of my dark hole under the stairs, so decamped to the kitchen table to get a brief glimpse of the grey daylight. And to be closer to the coffee machine. It was MINUTES before I found myself lumbered with a new PA. To be candid, he is not a great addition to the team - barely computer literate and far, far too much of a hipster for me. He keeps sitting on the table, wearing Converse and rolled up dungarees, talking to me about owls. And he has man jewellery. #workingfromhome #homeworking #workingmama #workingwithkids #toddlerlife #toddleronmycomputer #toddlersofinstagram #dontpressanything #mumboss #workingmotherhood #mykitchentable #kitchentabletalk #motheroftwins #ambernecklace

It’s Father’s Day. So naturally, the father in question doesn’t feel like doing any fathering today. Fair enough. So it’s out of the house and trudging through the rain we go. But what a walk! The boys walked the whole way there and back, we didn’t even take a buggy, they splashed in puddles and ran and giggled and Elsa chased them and it was easy and playful and happy. More and more I feel like we’re getting visions of how life might be. #happytwins #twindays #toddlingtwins #twinlife #motherofthree #fathersday #fatheroftwins #countrywalking #walkingwithtoddlers

The couple that own this gorgeous little cottage are the most amazing gardeners, and the roses on the front of their house are always magical. They are also the loveliest neighbours too. The husband is himself a twin, and always takes a special interest in my rampaging boys, asking after them, regaling me with tales of him and his brother’s antics in childhood. He always regards the twins with a knowing twinkle in his eye as we walk past. I love that our friends in this village are all different ages and characters, it adds such a richness of experience and perspective to our lives. #countrycottage #cottagegarden #englishcountrygarden #englishroses #englishvillage #villagelife #cotswolds #cotswoldsvillage #ittakesavillage #countrywalks #morningwalk #aftertherain #twins #twinstories #lifewithtwins #twintales #motheroftwins

Daddy. Feeder of porridge, kisser of heads, hugger of tiny people, driver of cars, personal dresser to a five year old, king of the bubble bath, best at monster chasing, wiper of noses, holder of hands, reader of stories, pusher of buggies, carrier of tired legs, provider of monies, buyer of ice cream, holder of hands, soother of tears, warmth when we are cold, funny when we are sad, solid when we are wobbly, strong when we are weak, and - most importantly - buyer of gin and pourer of wine.... Nothing works without him. We don’t work without him. He is our rock. How blessed my babies are to have him. (P.S It hasn’t escaped my notice, that for some of my friends, today presents a challenge more than anything else - daddies no longer around, or gone too soon and deeply missed, single mummies carrying the parenting load alone. I know that being able to celebrate the father of my children - and my own wonderful, loving, funny, generous father - is an incredible privilege today.) #fathersday #daddy #fatheroftwins #rockofthefamily #daddies #father #daddyoftwins #twindad #dadofthree #fathersofgirls #daddysgirl #fatherhood

I love how different all my children are. There was a time that I thought Elsa would never master jumping with two feet off the ground, and she’s always been a careful sort of soul, while Monty seems to have only mastered the art of falling over extensively. And then crying about it extensively. But Felix - man this boy can jump, and fall down, and giggle and get back up again. Over and over again. #jumpingtoddler #bigbounce #softplay #trampoliningtoddlers #littlestoriesofmylife #childhoodunplugged #twinboy #toddlersofinstagram #naturenotnurture #motheroftwins #twinmama #thingsthattwinshavetaughtme #havingtwins #lifewithtwins #twinlife #thankgodforsoftplay

Oh, I see, it’s going to be one of THOSE days. Been up since 5:15am. It’s still pouring with rain. I used up all my energy at playgroup this morning. And then managed to post an Instagram work post to my personal account. Pretty sure that’s the absolute opposite of finding a work/life balance. Sorry folks. Normal service - ie total chaos and pictures of underdressed, feral children - resumes. #whoops #worklifebalance #workingmum #flexibleworking #workingfromhome #workingfromthekitchentable #motheroftwins #tiredmama #notlivingmybestlife #motheroftwins #toomuchtodo
