In an article posted on the BBC, they talked about the negative affects of arguing to children. This is going to be less a post about actual scientific research, and more just my opinions on it. I might come back through at a later day and add research, but for now, this is just my [...]
As you might already know if you follow this blog, we really like to travel whenever we can. In Isabelle's short life, she's already been to 13 or more different hotels. But what we didn't do a whole lot of was travel whilst pregnant. We went to Stratford once, and then to Brussels during Rachel's [...]
Well, I've now been back in work for 11 weeks. So I thought I'd come on here, take over the blog for a little bit, and write about what's it's been like being back in work after maternity leave. What's It Like to Be Back in Work After Maternity Leave? When I first went back [...]
Well this is a slightly different post to usual. But since it's Easter, I thought I'd actually talk about Jesus! So I'm basically going to talk about Jesus via a painting that we have in our house. It's the Transfiguration by Raphael. I'll admit that this is a slightly random print to have, especially for [...]
We're back with another month in photos roundup! As you might be able to guess, this is going to be five photos that reflect on the month of March. No messing. Let's go. "Seriously dad, it's cold!" You might have noticed, but March saw the UK get hit by the Beast from the East. And [...]

It went on to say: "A hospital trust has been criticised for describing mothers who use formula milk as "artificially" feeding babies. Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust made the comment in a letter that said it would [...]
Last night I really didn't like Isabelle. She was a teething, screaming mess and instead of looking at her with concern and sympathy, I just thought she was a dick. Basically, I wasn't the best dad I could've been. In all honesty, I was a pretty bad dad. Don't get me wrong, I know I'm [...]
Don't get me wrong, and excuse the phrasing, but I love jumping balls deep into stuff. Once I like the idea of something, and I want to do it, I bloody go for it. Rachel once wanted to open a wedding dress shop, so I ran with that. Ultimately it didn't pan out. But I [...]
This isn't the first time I've left a post to the last minute. Actually the very first #MySundayPhoto that I did was all done on the day. And that's what this one is. This photo was literally taken this morning. And my plan was to write this as Isabelle napped. Instead I'm writing this one [...]
On the back of MPs calling for 12 weeks paternity leave, the Guardian have gone with the idea that it will help address the gender pay gap. Whilst I'm all up for having 12 weeks paternity, my question here is quite simple: What Does The 'Gender Pay Gap' Have to do With This? I'll be honest. [...]
