Mini-me is a rough critic 😂 I hope she'll be happy with the revised version of the first draft after @katharinehubbard.bsky.social and I meet up this week!

Little elf enjoyed seeing Daddy elf at work 🌲

(She did cry when she first met Santa, but she got over it pretty quickly and had her milk in the end!)

Little one went swimming for the first time - tried to roll when on a float board and realised that's not a good idea when it was too late 🤦‍♀️ (we avoided any trauma but she was surprised to say the least!)

My baby rolled over from tummy to back for the first time today... She's finally figured out how to get out of tummy time 😂

To the volunteer's mum at the #HullWomensAid #charityshop who knitted this adorable lilac dog - this is my baby's favourite thing right now. She smiles and talks to it all the time 💜

Contact naps are genuinely the best with my baby...

... mainly so I can reach mastery points on Stardew Valley 😂

I need to be brave and cut my baby's nails... She currently scratches at my face for comfort while going down for her nap.

It's not very comforting for me 🥲 #mumsky

Every year since 2011 we've produced an affordable, alternative, rock'n'roll panto in an old warehouse in Hull, with our audience choosing which story we stage next. This year, it's the turn of Treasure Island: bit.ly/3L4Dins

Treasure Island, the rock'n'roll Hull panto chosen by you. See it at Social on Humber Street from 19-29 Dec 2024.

It's mad to think my baby is 4 months old?!

It was also a year ago we found out I was pregnant - we were going to have a glass of bubbly to celebrate but we're all feeling rubbish and run down so that's going to wait for another day!

Oh hey BlueSky - hopefully you're nicer than 'X' and something I'll use more than Threads 😉
