About us: ….. Well lets start at the beginning
I am Jaime I am a stay at home working Mum who is on a mission to lose weight and to get back into sports, preferably my much-loved hockey and tennis … although my biggest dream has been to learn to run … a lot!
I am OCD about organising as well as cleaning and love nothing more than getting out and about on adventures both near and far.
My parenting journey has been an interesting one, if not slightly unconventional with my first pregnancy in 2001, my son Joshua in 2011 and my newest addition Jacob who was born in 2016.
I am not a natural homemaker and have up until recently been a kitchen and cooking avoider but have started to find a new love for all things home interior and cooking and I can be found writing about those on my other blog … not THAT Jaime Oliver.
My Husband is Mark (Ollie) and he was my first ever boyfriend when I was 13 and he was 12! after many many years apart we got back together some years ago.
Ollie is an avid fan of football and supports Everton FC – hence red is a naughty word in our house!
Joshua is 11 years old (born 2011) He is totally fanatical about his Nintendo Switch, Super Mario and football and not necessarily in that order! He also likes nothing more than adventures out and about and loves swimming and camping too.
Jacob was born in February 2016 and is a force to be reckoned with. He is fiercely determined and loves being outside or in the water!
He adores his brother and loves to follow him around annoying him. All most as much as he enjoys his food. He is constantly on the go and loves going to nursery with his friends. Sleep is something he now loves (it’s taken a while)

Love the new look. It’s fab. You must be really proud.
My husband is a blue too. Makes for interesting family events as my whole family are Liverpool supporters. It’s going to be a race to see who can coerce our sons to support their team.

Thank you silent Sunday for helping me find your blog. Am now a follower. Love that you had fish and chips on your wedding day, especially in Whitby, which is one of my favourite places so am biased towards their fish and chips being best on the planet.
