We are back new blog design, name and #competition


We Are back With a New blog design Name and competition!


I am so excited to announce the return and complete overhaul of my blog formerly known as two monsters and me, we will now be known as My crazy family story not only have we had a name change we have had a complete makeover with the help of pipdig so you can see we are going for a more modern sleeker looking page I actually love the design.

I have been away from blogging and writing for sometime now life just got so busy my blog had to unfortunately be put on the back burner for a while but I have missed it and there is a feeling of empowerment writing this post I am excited about where life is going to take me and us as a family and of course I want you as readers to join us.

Why did I change the name?

I as a person I have changed so much since I started this blog and my family has changed and grown, I was in a dark and quite emotional place when I started writing this blog. I started to write to put my feelings and emotions in one place. I was quite miserable back then my life was completely upside down, then there was the pregnancy with Jack that I dont for one minute regret, nor would I change him but it should not have happend. Anyway coming back to my blog with fresh ideas and feeling the happiest in my life I have been for a long time Two Monsters and Me just didn't fit any more although that part of my blog is still here still and is still a part of me but doesn't fit with my life so we are now crazyfamilystory.com which I feel is far nicer and a far better fit for us as a family going forward and I am really happy with it!

What can you expect to see from the blog going forward?

Im going to tell you all about whats being going on in my life, how I met the lovely Ian there are going to be some catch up posts from the twins pregnancy and of course a introduction to them, Liam's story I have a lot to tell you about where his journey is at now, I am also going to talk about other reasons why I stopped blogging and most of all keep you in touch with my life and our adventures of are ever growing family of eight yes that is right! There is now Mummy, Daddy, Ben Ian's son from a previous relationship hes 20, my three boys Liam (7) Adam (5) Jack (2) and Demi-rose and Eva-Jen 4.5 month old twins some days the house is so noisy my ears are ringing at the end of the day, sometimes the only me time i get to myself is when I go to the toilet and not even that is guaranteed but I actually wouldn't have it any other way.

I hope you enjoy reading about our adventures to say thank you for having me back I'm running a competition I hope you all enter I'm looking forward to reading your answers
