Childbirth is a beautiful thing. Two weeks ago you

Childbirth is a beautiful thing. Two weeks ago you kept us on our toes as you entered this world as though you had always been in it.
.
I am so blessed to have been cared for in the way I was during Phoebe's arrival. We had visits from the two midwives who cared for us during Maddisons delivery that by chance had seen I had been admitted so took the time to come and say hello and it felt so lovely to have gone full circle with some familiar faces. As for the new faces we met along the way, every single one of them took the time to understand our situation and help empower us through this very different stay. Its true that you never forget those who touch your lives in the most special ways ❤️
.
I was induced for Phoebe's birth and coincidentally was admitted to the very same room as I was after finding out Maddison's heartbeat had stopped for the two days prior to induction. Initially this was a huge emotional shock, but a few hours passed and it enabled us to feel that Maddison was with us throughout the whole thing. ✨

Mummy & Daddy.

This little lady has been in our lives just 10 days and has already flipped our world upside down (in all the best ways - but in all the tiresome ones too!) We've been thrust into the life of unconditional love and a new realm of anxiety that we never knew existed. Phoebe dropped a little below the threshold of weight in her first week and was a tad jaundice so less than 24 hours after being discharged we were back in hospital for them to monitor her feeds. At that point I was close to closing the book on breastfeeding but persistence proved that a little bit of patience can pull you through and madam is now above her birth weight 🎉 and we are well and truly enjoying the sleepless nights 👍🤪

This man & his girls ✨

The fact it's been a week since this little lady made her appearance into our lives astounds me. I've not known what day it is the past week and our lives have become an unplanned chaos. But a beautiful chaos at that. Shout out to this man for his love and willing adaptation to this new life.. when I thought about what labour would be like this time around, the one thing I didn't imagine was Jason being the one to catch her and place her onto my chest thanks to us having the best midwife ensuring he had his work cut out for him from the word go. What a moment to hold forever 💕

October. Forever you will be a month of remembering. Remembering the little life of Maddison that gave us such a steep development of unconditional love that later allowed us to pour into Phoebe who we hold in our arms.
.
Today is the wave of light, and tonight we join families across the globe honouring their little loved ones lost too soon by lighting a candle for our little angel.
.
Today I also received the most beautiful gesture on the most fitting of days from the beautiful soul that is @bethsandland in the form of this bracelet that holds the birthstones of our two girls in between both Jason & I's. The hormones are well and truly kicking in today 👼🏼🌈

Interrupting your day with a little magic...

I've had 9 months to think of how to announce and openly talk about this chapter of our lives, yet words absolutely failed me. Something simply too precious to share until this very moment.

Phoebe Grace Hunt. Born 10.10.20. Welcome to our little family. You have the most besotted parents and a big sister like no other, one that I have no doubt has been keeping you safe.

Under the watchful eye of an amazing consultant and midwife, this day finally happened for us and I can't quite yet find the words to express my gratitude to them just yet. 🌈

Is there really this much of a height difference b

Is there really this much of a height difference between us @mr_j_hunt ?? 🤦🏼‍♀️ Some would say I look up to you 🙄🧀❤️

We received these photos at a time of such certainty. Celebrating our first wedding anniversary and I was heading up to Sheffield just a few weeks later to carry out my final ever exam at uni. We were sure we knew where our future headed in terms of careers, home, family, our relationship. That was just 3 years ago and well, there's been a whole lot of growing up that's occured in those days. Proud to grow alongside you Mr. 🌱

I've felt like a busy little 🐝 lately so have indulged in copious amounts of candle lit bubble baths this week to encourage a zoned out state of mind. Treating myself didn't stop there as yesterday I caught up with this gorgeous girl for the yummiest breakfast out 🍳 and my oh my it was a nice change of scene, some would say dates like this are good for the soul ❤️. Feel incredibly lucky to have my kind of people to share life with. So on that note, have a happy Sunday 👌

🏡 I can't believe I am writing this. But we are selling our home!!
.
I have no idea what the months that lay ahead involve when it comes to this decision but one thing is for sure, I'm not naive to a long and lengthy drawn out process that's involved in the buying and selling of property so I'm prepping for the long haul, although my heart wants someone to love this house as much as we have the past 4 years.
.
Our perfect first home has held the hardest of heartbreaks and the highest of highs when it comes to life's milestones and mountains and I'd be lying if I said I haven't already shed a tear at the fact this house could soon no longer be ours to enjoy. That being said, I know it can be enjoyed by someone else's adventures all the same, so if you know of that friend of a friend, who has a mate... feel free to let them know 😉❤️
