Lets begin...
What is the first thing you do when you wake up?
Based on Monday-Friday the first time I'm woken is around 7am when the Mr kisses my forehead before he heads off to work. I really don't object to being woken like this, infact I LOVE it and it makes me smile knowing that I am loved (even when snoring and without a thick layer of foundation and eye liner on!). The second time is either by the kids around 7.40 or my alarm around this time too. I tend to sit up, check my phone to see the time and then get out of bed to begin the day.
If it's a Saturday or Sunday and I'm woken before 8 then I tend to say 'Rarrr' and hide under the pillow for a few minutes first!
Do you shower daily? Are you an early morning shower or evening bath type?
I shower daily before bed so I'm fresh when climbing into my lovely kingsize bed with memory foam mattress, heaven! I do like to bath though and I enjoy a Lush bath bomb thrown in too. I always shower after a bath though to rinse off properly.
Do you wear make-up daily?
I will not leave the house without it. I don't wear a lot and I go for a natural-ish look but I feel almost naked bare faced. A bit of foundation (I try not to look like a wotsit), mascara, eye liner and clear gloss are my daily essentials.
What's in your make-up bag?
A fair bit and then I have a huge stash for at home too ...oops. My little pink zebra print bag contains foundation, powder, 2 blushs, 3/4 lip glosses, mascara, 3 liquid liners and a pencil, pencil sharpener and a brow pencil.
When you're having a slummy mummy day what do you normally wear?
If I'm home all day or feeling unwell I will usually chill out in leggings and a casual top or print. I don't really have many slummy mummy days though, it would be typical that the family would turn up as a surprise or something and see me in zombie mode!
Nails - how often do you get them done?
Every 4 weeks I have a fresh set of acrylics put on. I don't go for french tip or clear I always go for funky ones with gems and nail art. I like to make a bit of a statement with them.
Your top tip for tired eyes?
More sleep or sunglasses!? I don't really have any! Makeup should do the trick and my eyes are quite sensitive so I avoid putting any food like cucmber near them as they end up looking worse!
Are you a Starbucks or a Costa Coffee kind of girl?
I don't drink tea or coffee but I do love a hot chocolate with flakes dunked in to melt. Nomnom! Costa it is.
How many children do you have/want & why?
I have 2 children, Minxy aged 8 and Jamster aged 6. I would love a baby, I've wanted another for a good few years, but the Mr has said no and as it takes two to tango so I have to deal with his decision. Nagging day in and out hasn't worked boo!
Where is your favourite place to shop for babies/children's clothes?
I really enjoy a spree in H&M. They have a fantastic range, are great value and have a lot of the Mini Mes fav characters on their clothing ie Star Wars and Hello Kitty so I can't go wrong there. They wash well and seem hard wearing - bonus.
Flats or heels? Your everyday shoes are...?
I'm 6ft as it is so heels are a big no no for me. Plus I can't walk in them without looking like a hippo on stilts or bambi on ice! Ballet style pumps are perfect.

Wow, what posh nails! You are definitely more yummy than slummy - I suspect I may be largely at the other end of the spectrum...!!
