One Lovely Blog Award & 7 Random Facts About Me

Last week I got a tweet notification to let me know that I had been nominated for One Lovely Blog Award by Lisa from Into The Glade. Lisa is a Mummy of two girls and has a very lovely blog herself. Check her out here. She writes about her family life and posts some yummy recipes too.

In my one month of blogging I feel really lucky to be part of the blogging community and it's so nice to come across bloggers like her. Thank you so much Lisa :)


From what I understand about this award, I need to list seven things about myself that you wouldn't already know and then pass on the lovely blog torch to 10 others who I think have lovely blogs and for them to do the same thing.

Here are my seven random facts:

1. My heritage is unique to say the least. I was born in Australia. My mum is from New Zealand and my dad is from the UK but also has Nigerian blood. Through my mum, dad and husband I am eligible for 4 passports - Australian, UK, New Zealand & Nigerian.

2. I am one of 3 children. I have two brothers. My older brother is exactly 7 years older than me and my younger is exactly 7 years younger. Our birthdays are all 2 weeks apart - May 25th, June 7th and June 20th making us all Gemini.

3. I love to sing. Pre-baby I was the lead singer in a funk band that would gig regularly around London and it was so much fun. I love music and singing with every inch of my being however when I fell pregnant I suffered from really bad morning sickness. Sadly could not keep up with the rehearsals so I had to leave the band. The singing fire in me has not burnt out so I'm sure later down the line I will be involved in another music project.

4.  I've travelled to 16 different countries. This is only 7.8% of the world! My most favourite memories are when I'm on holiday so I plan to see much more of the world. I just need to get over the daunting thought of planning travel with a baby first.

5. I met my husband in 2010 at Camden Jazz Café in London. We took a trip to Paris in 2012 and he asked me to marry him. In 2013 we tied the knot in Tuscany, Italy. In front of 50 of our closest family and friends who had travelled from all over the world for our special day. I was pregnant by the end of 2013 and in 2014 I gave birth to our beautiful baby girl. It's been a busy 5 years!

6. I'm a pescetarian meaning the only meat I eat is fish. I really wish I could eat meat sometimes but I just can't stand the thought of eating animals. It started when I was 8 years old and watched the movie Babe. It all went down hill from there.

7. I dream of growing old with a huge family around me. I would really love to have 4 children but my husband only wants 2. I guess we'll see what God graces us with. We are however currently on a baby hiatus. We need to catch up on the lack of sleep we have experienced with baby number 1.

Now for my 10 nominations:

MOMM @ Mummy On My Mind
Lyndee &Tiffany @ #Lifewithboys
Becca @ Amuse Your Bouche
Carolyn @ Stylish Memories
B @ A Biscuit For Mama

  1. Wow they are really interesting facts! The age differences between you and your siblings is amazing, your 4 children might happen with those sorts of time lapses because you do forget a lot as time goes by. Also you are a singer, there is no end to your talents. A lovely lovely post xx

  2. Thank you Lisa :)
    Unless I want to have my last baby at 45 the age difference won't work for me. My mum started a lot younger!! X
