Hope everybody had a great #Halloween! 🎃 This was our first spooky holiday in our new home, in a new area. Sadly 99% of people didn't answer their doors when we took the littles #trickortreating, however, the girls were more excited by A) dressing up, B) Mummy doing their stage makeup and C) getting to go out in the evening, therefore bedtime being delayed! We had a few kids at our door and made a conscious effort to have non-edible spooky things for any children with allergies. If only more of the community came together to make sure every child was included via schemes like the #TealaPumpkinProject. Here's some snaps of our Halloween, the following day the littles were in full #Christmas mode 😂 How was your Halloween? #ChildhoodMemories #WorldOfLittles #ChildhoodUnplugged #HalloweenCostume #HalloweenSpirit #ChristmasCountdown

Daddy took Abbie up #63Steps #BarrowBridge this half-term for a daddy, daughter healthy hike here in #Bolton 🙌 What have you got upto this #Autumn season? #MotherhoodInspired #Change4Life #HealthyLifestyle #GetKidsActive

We adopted a black cat specifically because we discovered black cats are the least adopted from catteries, rescue centres and breeders due to superstition 😔. While most of society believe seeing or being in the presence of a black cat will bring bad luck, in many cultures black cars are actually a symbol of good luck and prosperity! Olly is very outdoorsy and great with the girls. Some days he ventures out right after his breakfast and we have to coax him in late at night. Other days he's catching up on his beauty sleep, picking the most inconvenient places to sprawl out. Particularly on the kitchen table, on important paperwork or in doorways blocking everyone's path. He has no fear of my wheelchair! He's very playful for 7 years old and occasionally brings in presents. Watching him chasing flies is hilarious! Olly definitely rules the roost in our house, we are his people and he owns us haha. If you're thinking of getting a cat, please help break the stigma. #BlackCats need homes too. #catsofinstagram #cats_of_instworld #blackcatsofinstagram #blackcatsclub #rescuecat #adoptable

You can't know your bodies true capabilities until you push your own mental boundaries. Everybody thinks they can't handle this or that, but just like simpler things in life - you don't know until you try... I grew up believing my body was incapable of carrying a life safely to term, to survive childbirth, nevermind raise a little human, depending on me for everything when I depend so much on others. I underestimated myself, now I realise you're only really limited by lack of self belief. #BelieveInYourSelf #Motherhood #MuscularDystrophy #DisabledWomen #DisabledParents #ParentingLife #BodyPositive #BodyConfidence #EmpoweringWomen #Pregnancy #Childbirth #Csection #SelfLove #ThisBodyCan #PushBoundaries

We were up bright and early Sunday morning as I'd nabbed some tickets for the 🐻#WereGoingOnABearHunt 🐾 event at #TheHive in #MossBankPark. The Littles were very engrossed in finding all the clues set up by the @lancashirewildlifetrust staff. First was the grand discovery of bear poo! Much to Ava's delight. Our tomboy loves anything remotely yuk... Followed by the hunt for bear food, food and footprint. Make shift #muddypuddles were man made due to the blazing, unexpected #heatwave2019, one older girl in the group disgarded her wellies, determined to properly replicate the book. My two were a little more reserved for the first time ever 😂 . If you are a #Bolton local and looking to fill up the rest of the #SummerHolidays, I couldn't recommend the events here more. Most of the trails are #wheelchair #accessible or #buggyfriendly which is always grand ❤️ . #DisabledParents #Motherhood #PBlogger #imaginativeplay #pbloggersuk #BloggersOfInstagram #BloggerLife #QualityTime #InstaDaily #mummybloggers

While Ava went out with Nana and her 3 cousins to a massive play park in the back of beyond - BRAVE lady, total admiration 🙌... Me and Abbie had a girlie day painting each others nails, playing Barbies and doing their hair. Getting to spent time with each of your Littles individually is precious and rare. We were definitely way overdue some #MummyAndMe time! Check out my first attempts at doing #DutchBraids following some of @prettygirlshairs #hairtutorials 👍 Here's hoping practice makes perfect and I can do it on the girls! #FamilyTime #LearnThroughPlay #GirlsHair #GirlsHairdstyles #Braids #HairGoals #blogging #BarbieDolls #MotherhoodInspired #ChildhoodUnplugged
