Dog mums forever 🐾❤️

It's 🐶 yay! And I'm using it as an excuse to share more pics of my Teddy bear 😍 and to share my experience so far of rehoming an older dog.

Now that I've done it, I would 💯 recommend skipping the puppy stage. Yes you don't get to cuddle the little furballs but my life is hectic enough without adding a chewed up pissy house to the mix!

Teddy isn't a barker, which I didnt even consider. But I think if he had been a loud yappy dog that barked at everything that moved my overstimulated brain wouldn't have coped!

It's funny the other things you notice, but the lack of bins is a really annoying one for me! 😠

What do you think? What have I missed? 👇🏼

We're expanding!! 🎉 The family, the crazy, the chaos and the cuddles 🐾🫶🏻

Teddy is our new big Labradoodle addition to the Graham family and we love him to bits already ❤️

I've had lots of negative comments about how this is an awful idea, so please be kind and tell me some constructive advice if you have any 🙏🏼

Guess I'm a dogmum now as well as a soccer mum and plant mum! 🤣

Sure what else would I be doing?! 🤪

How would you feel? 🤪

Bearing in mind, I grew these Hollyhocks from seed and they've only come into their full glory this year!😢

Personally, I'm quite touched that this little leafcutter bee wants to use my flowers for her home 😊🌸

Also shocked it wasn't my kids and they were telling the truth! 🙈

Follow for more gardening (in)sanity! 🤪

Pass me a cocktail already!! 🍸🤯

Does anyone else go this far in their pre-vacation prep? 🙈

Not sure why everyone is tip-toeing around me atm...Maybe it's my gentle glares as they walk on my clean floor or my very quiet yells when they put their hands on the windows...🤷🏻‍♀️

I just want a clean house to come home to, is that too much to ask?!?!

Potting on seedlings = the glow-up your plants are begging for! 🌱✨

Why?

Potting on will give you stronger roots, healthier plants and actual garden success 💪🏼 🌸

When?

You’ll know you need to pot on if:

🌱 Roots are peeking out the bottom
🌱 Plants look too big for their container
🌱 Growth has slowed or stalled
🌱 Leaves are turning yellow for no reason

Here’s how to pot on like a pro (even if you’re a beginner gardener):

✅️ Find a slightly bigger pot for each seedling
✅️ Fill with fresh compost
✅️ Gently loosen the roots (be kind, she’s still a baby! 🥹)
✅️ Always handle by the leaf- NOT the stem
✅️ Replant and water well

This is a lovely mindful task for beginner gardeners growing sweet peas, zinnias and anything from seed!

🌸 SAVE this for your next day in the garden
