About

Oh, hi there. 

Welcome to my little corner of the internet. 

"Don't compare your behind the scenes with someone else's highlight reel"

I am Kelley-Jay and I am a lucky fiancé, proud mummy and homeowner, who has there own little corner of the internet, this blog you are reading, Kelley-Jay Louise M.

I have been reading blogs and watching YouTube videos for over 10 years, have started and failed at many blogs in the past, as I have been unable to keep up with them and have the motivation to upload posts, BUT since 2016, once I had gotten engaged I started reading more and more blogs and watching more videos on YouTube. I had gone from watching Beauty Vloggers and Fashion Vloggers and reading their blogs, to then watching women who posted wedding videos, blogs and family life. We then found out we were pregnant in 2017 and I started watching YouTube even more, finding the "pregnancy must haves" and "baby essentials" videos. Then when we decided we were going to buy our own house, I started watching more home DIY videos, cleaning and home organising videos. As well as YouTube and Blogs, I developed a love for Pinterest (wedding inspiration central) for wedding ideas, home décor ideas and such. I realised I loved this so much, when I was pregnant and off work with severe morning sickness, when I wasn't doing something, I was ALWAYS on YouTube to watch the next family blog or getting beauty and hair inspiration, reading an organisation blog post about "clever ways to store your babies toys" or scouring Pinterest for wedding, fashion and home ideas, creating many moodboards for inspiration. 

It then hit me! I enjoy watching and reading all this content so much, why not be a part of this and join in, by creating my own place to share the things I love to read and watch (YouTube videos will be up when I gain the confidence to do so). 

As well as doing this for myself, I wanted to do this for my family, so we can now look back on things we do in many years to come, and cherish the memories we create forever. The idea of being able to show my child what he was like growing up, what the world was like, what his Mummy and Daddy (and the rest of the family) were like and what we got up to. My parents and grandparents recorded my life on their Camcorder and now it is ALL on DVDs for me to watch back as an adult AND I LOVE THAT I CAN DO THAT! To be able to give that to my family is something I WANT to do because it was done for me growing up. 

Yes there will be a limit to how much I share online, on social media, but I will share the things I (me and my partner) agree are appropriate. I wouldn't want ALL our lives online or ALL of our sons life online. Would you like an argument broadcastsed or a temper tantrum? No! So I aren't going to do that. What I will do is share the snippets of the life I don't mind the word seeing, but the other parts of our lives we can keep private. The blog will be an insight into my real life but not all of it, just the bits I want to share. So please remember this when reading the blog, looking on my social media etc.
