Jodie Alice Fisher A personal blog from the heart of a young Mum

Today I realised I am not alone. This sounds silly because there’s honestly so much coverage on the topic that I’m talking about, yet I still felt very lonely. Being a mum of three is hard work. They are draining. They are a constant. I always feel I’m not good enough for them, that they could be having a better …

This week has been all about chickenpox. Very nearly two weeks after P2 first broke out with chickenpox, P1 and P3 came down with it. I plan to write another post all about it but definitely thought that for this weeks My Sunday Photo, it had to be of my biggest baby. She has suffered quite badly this week, I …

I hadn’t even realised it was Bank Holiday weekend until someone reminded me there was no school on Monday. The girls were due to spend the weekend with my Mum in Essex, I hadn’t realised it was going to be a long weekend. Hubby and I met my Mum half way, at Ikea Thurrock. After saying our goodbyes to the …

The worst thing about our chickenpox experience with P2 was the boredom and cabin fever. I was extremely grateful to have received a brilliant box of Disney Emoji goodies on what was actually our worst day that week. You can watch the girls open all of the goodies in the video I created: We had been sent five of the Disney …

This week has been a very odd one hasn’t it?! We’ve had extreme rain followed by a glorious weekend. I spent Thursday doing something completely out of my comfort zone. I went to London by myself to meet the Channel Mum team for a private screening of Tully. I was so nervous beforehand. Travelling by myself, meeting new people, meeting …

Firstly I wanted to thank everyone for all of their well wishes regarding my Grandad. I haven’t updated on here for a while but he’s doing ok! Currently he’s been living with my Mum, still has a catheter attached and has no vision back in his right eye despite laser treatment. He worried me, he still does, but every day …

As you’ve probably guessed by the title, this post is all about Chickenpox. I have wanted my girls to catch the highly contagious disease since they were very younger, like under a year if I’m honest. That may make me seem mean but I just wanted it over and done with. P1 supposedly caught it when she was about two …

We recently received an exciting invitation for a play date with Little Tikes in Hyde Park. The event was to celebrate the release of the new Little Tikes Fun Zone products that are perfect for the coming summer. We’d already got to experience the Fun Zone Drop Zone and was really excited to take a look at more of the new range. …

Last days are always bittersweet. I always get butterflies and nerves. Anticipation of the reality hitting when we reach our own front door and also the real want to cram as much in for the last few hours as possible. Is packed up most of our bits the night before. It made our more much less stressful which is something …

I can’t believe I’m still writing these posts over two weeks after our actual trip! Life has been crazy which hopefully I’ll get round to writing about soon. I sort of miss my personal blog posts. Finally the sun was shining, typically for our last full day on the island. There was blue skies over our caravan at The Orchards …

Every morning at The Orchards Holiday Park feels relaxed and slow, such a contrast to normal life at home. On our Wednesday morning we got to meet the lovely lady that was hosting us at the holiday park before heading out for a day at Blackgang Chine. I talk about it all of the time, Blackgang Chine is our absolute …

I’m back again with another L.O.L Surprise review. Since the last one which was our first ever experience of this new and exciting craze, we were bought a few of the pet versions by my Mum. That was an exciting day! Well now we’ve been sent this huge L.O.L Surprise Pearl Surprise ball. We only had one which caused a …

It was a rather windy and wet night at The Orchards Holiday Park. It definitely made getting ready for the day much harder than it would have if it was warm and bright. Breakfast was fed to the girls as usual - usual being three different breakfast options and then we headed out of the holiday park for another day …

Education is more about the grades your children earn. It is about their attitudes, their ability, and their skillset. It’s for this reason that relying solely on schools to teach your children is a mistake, and similarly not considering the best school can be detrimental to your child’s development. You need to do all you can to ensure your child …

I have never ever been to a festival. There I said it. But I am super excited that we are booked to attend a brand new family festival called Monstrous this summer. The event, which will take place at the award-winning Printworks venue in London. It will host over seven fantasy worlds full of fun for all the family. Zones …
