This week on Other Bloggers Family Lives I am featuring Helen who blogs at Mummy To The Max. Helen blogs about family life, reviews and her life in the New Forest. So let's find out more about the family behind Mummy To The Max.
1.) Tell me a bit about yourself and your family?
I am Helen and I am 25, I am a "Digital Mum" as well as a blogger. I live with my partner and our son, Maxwell who is five.
2.) Where do you live?
We are fortunate enough to live in the New Forest - on the South Coast, near Southampton.
3.) What is your favourite thing to do as a family where you live?
We love going for walks in the forest and we also love going to the beach. We are never stuck for places to visit as we have so much open space to explore.
4.) If you could live anywhere where would you?
If we were able to live anywhere, I think we would move to Weymouth. We love the area we live in and Weymouth is not from us. We love the sea and the open space in Weymouth.
5.) Did you grow up close to where you live now and what are your favourite childhood memories of where you grew up?
I have always lived in the New Forest and as it stands, I would not like to move from the area. My favourite childhood memories are going away on our family yacht and caravanning in our family caravan. Every weekend was fun packed!
6.) Have you got any exciting family plans for the year ahead?
At the age of 25, I have just learnt to drive! Now I can drive I am excited to explore more of the area that we live in. I am looking forward to seeing my son grow in year 1 of school and I am looking forward to lots of family time - especially around Christmas.
7.) What is your favourite thing about family life?
I love that we get to spend good quality time together each week. I love that although we are a young family we are quite close and are always there for one another.
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer these questions, Helen, it sounds amazing living in the New Forest; it is somewhere I have always wanted to visit myself. Well done on passing your driving test, I really need to start learning to drive myself as I am always stuck at home when my partner is at work. I hope Maxwell enjoys year one and that you all have a magical Christmas together.
