After the hustle and bustle of the past few weeks it was lovely just to have some time to ourselves as a family and do nothing (with the exception of the big food shop)
Lots of play time and cuddles with the little lady is just what the doctor has ordered. We very rarely get lots of family time for just the three of us and enough time for us to enjoy it and relax. Even though we have spent the weekend running around after a very mobile 9 month old I still feel refreshed and ready for the busy week ahead.
I love being able to watch my partner and Isabelle interact, she’s developing such a little character now that she is barely recognisable as the same baby just a few short months ago.
![[AD] This year has been full of changes, we’ve homeschooled, we’ve worked from home (and still do) and as a result, we have spent more time in the house than we have out. It’s been no surprise that our monthly utility bills have increased over that period.
With our rising bills we wanted to see how easy it would be to reduce our bills and be more in control of our energy usage by switching to a smart home with one of the UKs leading smart home providers @HiveHomeUK. Combined with our Amazon Echo devices we have fully automated the lights in our home with Hive Dimmable Lights. They can be dimmed, set on timer, switched on/off via the app and respond to voice commands through Alexa.
You can find out more ways a smart home with Hive can benefit you in my blog post (link in bio)
