My first year blogging has been fun, exciting, challenging and, at times, frustrating. But, all in all, it’s been a great journey. Today marks one year since I launched The Rolling Baby. Back then, I was on maternity leave going slightly stir crazy with a three month old that did little more than roll and …
Finding inspiration for blog posts can be somewhat of a struggle when you’ve just got nothing to say. Each week, I aim to post three new posts – usually on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday. At times, I find it easy to churn out content, but, at others, I struggle to find anything to write …
I love blogging and I love being a mum. On top of these, I work as a freelance writer and have a dog with recurring colitis. To say that my days are busy, is a bit of an understatement. There are times when I struggle to fit everything in and these are often the days …
When I started my blog back in August I had no idea what going self hosted meant. I’d bought my own domain and thought that’s all I needed to do. Then, I kept reading reasons to go self hosted and I felt it made sense to do it. But, I kept putting it off. I …

The rules of the tag are: Write 7 interesting facts about yourself. Nominate 15 …
First of all, let me start by wishing you all a very Happy New Year! I’ve never been one to make new years resolutions. If I want to do something, I prefer to get on with it there and then rather than wait for a set day/week etc to arrive before starting it. However, this …
This is the second time I’ve written this post as silly ol’ me, deleted rather than saved my first draft! So, I’m now sitting here trying to remember what I’d written the first time round! I’m not normally one to reflect on the year gone by, however this year it seems more apt than ever. …
We’re now 11 days into Blogmas and I thought I’d share with you my reasons for taking part in it this year. I’ve read numerous comments on Twitter and blog posts about why bloggers aren’t partaking in it, but not so many posts for it. I love Christmas! That’s my main reason for participating in …
