Diary Of My Miscarriage – Week Eight

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Diary Of A Miscarriage, Life, Mumma / Oct 15, 2020 / 0 comments

Prelude: This is the third instalment in my Diary Of My Miscarriage Series. This series was going to be the “Diary Of My Pregnancy” however, as we know, things don’t always turn out how we hope, do they? I began this series before we knew our baby was lost, and this is the first week when I really start to feel like something could potentially be wrong… And it was. These instalments from when I thought I was still pregnant are just as important to me as the miscarriage itself, and as such, I feel compelled to share them with you. Thank you for reading them x (more…)

Nine Things That Every New Mum Needs

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life, Love, Mumma / Apr 19, 2020 / 0 comments

Becoming a new mum is one of the most wonderful and yet most challenging times of a women’s life. The excitement. The joy. The new baby smell. Actually no, scrap that. Sometimes babies don’t smell that great… Let’s be honest, I mean they essentially smell like stale cheese for a couple of weeks, at least until they start opening their stinky baby hands once in a while to air them out. #Truth (more…)

Why Parenting Is So Hard Sometimes

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life, Love, Mumma / Feb 1, 2020 / 0 comments

Do you ever have those days where parenting is just too hard? Or when you want to stay in bed, in your pyjama’s (or out of them… wink wink nudge n-nope who am I kidding I’m way too tired for that lol), and just brain fade away into zombie-rest-ville watching Netflix on the couch? Yes? Oh good, me too. Like, every-single-day-me-too. (more…)

Well. That’s it. I am a huge ball of emotion today as I write this. Because my sweet baby girl has now turned two, and all I can say about that is sniffle sniffle sniffle. Sob Sob Sob. (more…)

Why Are Four Year Olds So Crazy

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life, Love, Mumma, Toddler / Dec 7, 2019 / 0 comments

So this week I’m writing about something that I don’t normally write about with such grumpy focus. And that is my four-year-old son. Lately I have been writing quite a bit about my daughter. I have been documenting her crazy tiny antics in a monthly diary – Diary Of A Crazy Baby (click here to read all of the instalments). And that meant I had been ignoring what would actually be an epic saga titled “Why Are Four Year Olds So Crazy”. (more…)

Diary Of A Crazy Baby – 22 Months Old… I think.

Ellyn Shepherd / Baby, Bloggity Blog, Diary Of A Crazy Baby, Life, Love, Mumma / Nov 10, 2019 / 0 comments

You know when you get to that point – when you are so close to two years old that you start forgetting what “month” you are up to? Yerrrrp, that is me right now. I keep forgetting how old my baby is. She is errrrrm… something years old. Or… um… she is … um… getting older months old. Yes. That’s it. Oooh, sorry, I honestly don’t know anymore. *throws hands confusedly into the air*. (more…)

Body Confidence and Boys Nudie Runs

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life, Love, Mumma / Oct 27, 2019 / 0 comments

Today I want to talk about two things. They may sound unrelated, but I promise you they totally are. I want to talk about body confidence and boys nudie runs. When I was growing up I remember how the local boys at parties used to get around, be silly, and do nudie runs. Oh what bogans, I thought, without realising at the time that I was a bit of a Queen Bogan myself. (more…)

The Grossest Day We Have Ever Had.

Ellyn Shepherd / Bloggity Blog, Life, Mumma / Sep 27, 2019 / 0 comments

Recently, we lived through the grossest day we have ever had to live through as a family. It was the day that we got … *shudders* … gastro. Yep, gastro. Vom. Spew. Sah gross. (more…)

Hi! *waves madly*

If you hadn’t guessed already, my name is Ellyn Shepherd.

I am a secret (not so secret) dork, who has two crazy kidlets, a furball dawggy who thinks he is a human, and an incredibly tall husband who I adore to pieces, and who is made up almost entirely of his own beard… #WhattaHairyLegend

On this blog, I share the story of our live’s, and we love every single messy spewed upon, dribbled on, or pooped on second of it. Well, maybe not the pooped on parts but you know what I mean. #IAlwaysSmellLikePoopOrVomTheseDays

Every post is REAL and reflects the grey-hair inducing craziness that is parenthood, and I hope you like reading about it as much as I love talking about it… Cough, except I never actually shut up about it… Soz…
