It was my birthday in February! And, this year, I wanted to see how many birthday freebies I could possibly get. Previously, living in America, I was very aware of all of the different birthday freebies you could get, from basically any brand. I spent some time looking up and adding myself to different apps to see what birthday freebies I could get before the end of my birthday month, all signing up at the end of the month before.
It feels like 2026 is flying by! March was a month of being at home, going out on lots of walks, so many little activities, and a lot of seeing how much our children have grown. There just is something so lovely about the transition between winter and spring, that I always am in love with. This month, I had so many lovely moments with friends and enjoyed so much time with Dann. Kai also had his 16th birthday – he’s grown so much in the last few years. I wrote up a little entry on each day of our March, as a part of Project 365. Some bloggers do this weekly, some daily, and some monthly like me. You can check out the other blogger’s post at the end of this post.
Today was a very long Sunday! I started off the day early, with a big Pokemon Go event. Dann, Amelia, Robin and I all went out until lunchtime. After some lunch, Dann and I did another round of Pokemon, before Dann headed home to start a DnD group that he was running for all of the day. I stayed out for a bit longer, doing a lot of raids, before heading into London for a late birthday dinner with a friend. We had a really lovely time, at a nice place to eat, and I ended up staying in London for the evening.

This little tradition always brings a lot of fun to the boring, back-to-school feeling Mondays. This week, we played Boba Bonanza! This is one of those vibrant, bright, fast-paced card games that have a lot of chaos! You need to make sure your family members have the same sort of vibe going into it, as there is a lot of scrambling to be done.
Every month Amelia and I go to Sweet Designs by Jennie‘s cupcake class, often going to one of the newer designs! Jennie creates new designs monthly, with so many different ones to choose from. Amelia and I always have a fantastic time creating cupcakes, chatting with others, and learning new decorating techniques. As always, we showed up for our class and all of the cakes were already baked. Our fondant was set out, along with tons of tools, and we got right to it!

[Ad – Gifted Products] B.box is a brand all about making feeding your little ones easier. From toddler stage with things like bibs and drinks bottles to teenagers with larger lunchboxes and massive water bottles, there is something for literally everyone. We have previously very much enjoyed their medium sized lunchboxes, snack boxes, and their insulated water bottles that really do keep things colder for longer. Everything from B.box is designed with parents in mind – and it’s all dishwasher safe and can pull a part. Recently, B.box has launched a Superman range, with some retro-inspired Superman designs.
