๐Ÿฉท My beautiful familyโ€ฆ

I love this photo, itโ€™s not often we get a photo of the 4 of us. The children are growing up so quickly, itโ€™s really important to me to capture these memories. Noah will be taller than me soon (I have heels on in this photo). 

This photo was taken the other weekend at my cousin-in-laws wedding. It was a wonderful day and the sun was shining. 

Have you enjoyed your half term with your familam so far?

Very proud of my little man cub todayโ€ฆ whose not so little anymore. He had 2 adult teeth extracted this morning, in preparation for a fixed brace fitting.

I knew what was coming to a certain extent but poor Noah didnโ€™t. Thankfully the dentist knew the right tricks, he asked Noah to close his eyes so Noah couldnโ€™t see the ghastly needle. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ Mummy on the other hand nearly passed out!

Then watching the dentist do a tug of war with 2 of Noahโ€™s teeth was horrifying too. The force to pull out a tooth is quite considerable. I hadnโ€™t really thought about it before. But the crunching sounds were ๐Ÿคข. 

He didnโ€™t faint, albeit he nearly did and he hardly complained at all throughout the day. He is super brave and made me very proud.

Itโ€™s horrible seeing your babies in pain. The worst part is Noah has to have 2 more teeth removed in a few weeks & heโ€™ll know what is going to happen.๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Noah said heโ€™s going to be poorly on that day! Haha!

A not so nice story but I tried to make it less gory for those that hate dentist or are just squeamish.

5 Top tips to freshen up an unused fireplace

Long before central heating came along, we relied on solid fuel fires, usually wood or coal, to heat our homes. Many rooms in the home would have their own fireplace and if you look at the history of Georgian, Victorian or Edwardian properties today, youโ€™ll find many of them still have these original features intact. Of course, when it comes to open fireplaces in the home, their use today is incidental and mainly decorative and, in fact, many old fireplaces serve no purpose at all. VIEW the POST
