This month we made the decision to embark on home educating Gabriel. It now means less time, more fun, and a lot of new ways we need to balance the budget.
Gabe has shot up again and new clothes and shoes made me think about how many buy into disposable fashion, and its environmental and financial impact.
2016 was a far harder year than we anticipated, and financially it kocked us about more than anticipated. 2017 is time to get back on track!
With a bit of quick footwork and luck you can save money by taking advantage of the shops Christmas over-stocks. Enjoy a low cost luxury Christmas.

The summer sun has arrived and that has meant lovely afternoons playing in the garden, and the Aga turned off before we boil!
Spring is finally on the way it feels, and that means free days out and a happier and healthier family.
There are so many free children's activities for sunny days and wet home days. From geocaching to messy play. Anything to tire the little tots out!
