Hello 2018, my fifth year blogging (+ giveaway)

Posted by
Hello! I know, I'm super late in writing this. It's my first post of 2018 and we are 16 days in - oops! I think I got a bit too comfortable not really doing much blog work over Christmas!

 On Sunday, Mum of a Premature Baby turned five years old! I honestly can't believe that, a) it's been that long. Time goes so quickly! And b) that I kept it up! Usually I get bored very quickly so I've surprised myself by doing something continuously for five whole years.

 I just wanted to say a massive thank you to anyone who reads my blog posts or follows me on social media. It's so lovely to know that people are interested in reading what I have to say and take the time to like, comment and interact. You're all awesome!

 I have a wee giveaway for you all too! Last year, you might remember that I did a Zomlings Twitter party and had some prizes to give away. If you weren't lucky enough to win some Zomlings goodies then, now's your chance! I have a massive Zomlings bundle up for grabs.

All you have to do is fill in the Gleam widget below. Good luck and don't forget to read the T&C's!

 T&C's:
  • The giveaway will run from 16th January until 4th February 
  • One winner will win everything pictured above
  • Open to entrants aged 18+
  • UK residents only 
  • One entry per person
  • No automated entries
Zomlings bundle
