This Crazy Life.


I am so beyond stoked at how my pieces worked out for my column, Bubble & Squeak {cute, right?}, in the first issue of Maeve magazine. Both of my articles were printed, as were all of my photos. I got a whole five pages. Crazy.


Do you know what's even crazier? I'm a nanny. A mumma. A wife. A sister. A daughter. I started this blog because I was bored whilst breastfeeding my newborn little baby. I set it on private and wrote for me. And now in this past fortnight I've been in a popular parenting magazine, on a TV show and now I have a column in a cute magazine. That's craziness.

I hope that doesn't sound like a brag. It's just that life moves so fast, and sometimes I forget to be present and realise what's happening. And it's good stuff that's going on. I should be present.

If you want to read the rest of the magazine you can take a peek here. It's free, so don't stress about money. xx

  7. Congratulations Chantelle!! I'm very happy for you. How exciting!

    How do you fit it all in? My little blog has been somewhat neglected during the past couple of weeks. My focus has been on uni, my work and family. I just can't seem to find the extra time for me and what I love.. Working on it.

    I LOVE Maeve magazine. Instantly I'm a fan.

    Well done xx

    I still consider myself an Army housewife & mother of 4, but reading that i sound like i totally know what i'm doing as a business woman after 10 years of motherhood & business combined. Who knew?? Love Posie
