That’s useful to know - I’m trying growing flowers from seeds and have had no luck this year with phlox and daisies. So marigolds. What else would you recommend from seed? Sorry to butt in!

Overwhelming what? Picking like 10 plants, some of them she actually got two of the same?

And the lot she showed in the picture is not enough to fill that border. Maybe in 2-3 years, but it will look sparse and sad this summer. She probably thinks that in 2-3 months her garden will look like those in the garden centre magazines that local garden centres put through your letterbox. Most people buy a few plants every year to add to the garden, it helps spread the cost but you can keep adding interesting plants over the years, you know because friends gave you a cutting, or you got inspired while visiting botanic gardens. But also you can get such cheap seedlings from supermarkets, even Aldi do them. I got some petunias and stocks last year, and I grow my own marigolds from seeds because they're easy to grow and sooo low maintenance. I also managed to grow lobelia, fairy bouquets, asters - all from seeds! I don't even have a proper garden, it's tiled so we have boxes and pots filled with flowers and herbs and our little "yarden" looks like a mini urban jungle. (yard + garden = yarden)
They could also plant some raspberry bushes and strawberries - it would be so nice for the children to pick their own fruit from the garden.

I guess... no-one told her.

We need to see the picture of your yarden. Looks lovely. Am growing some radish now!
 
I am a very light minimal packer although I don’t have children and I’m assuming you do need more stuff traveling with kids, but this looks over the top to me. It gives me the impression they are making their lives more difficult with all that luggage.

Is it just me or were the clips in that arket reel too long? No need for all those “who me, oh yeah, I am just standing here in my kitchen fiddling with my sleeves and making coffee” clips. Chop chop.

Also, for once, it would have been nice if that evening clip was a going out outfit and not just her throwing on a denim jacket.. It didn’t seem like the idea was to create an from today to evening look anyway, so why not actually show 3 completely different outfits?? Ah, everything she does is such a miss.

Also those stories from her bedroom “I’ll try to film bts today, but maybe i’ll forget” pissed me off. I wish I could say that to my boss. “Yeah, I’ll try and do my job today. But I might forget, hehe, lolz”. duck off, Lily.
 
I'm sorry but not only does she think iPads without headphones are okay, she's also using a sensory toy with bells on it?? Imagine being sat in the aisle across from the Martins, Grey with her iPad blaring and the baby jingling bells. What a nightmare family!

To be honest the jingling wouldn’t be that loud. I could absolutely live with that noise. However I’d be annoyed about the iPad with no headphones. Kids shows and games are super annoying!

I am wondering if she is doing this because she is travelling on a budget airline. But yes is super irritating. Regarding the IPad, I am sure pre baby Lily wouldn’t have moaned and bitched about it

She mentions another suitcase in addition to this. But I guess I have to realise I’m the minority going away with a backpack for 3 weeks.

Ah I missed that! Would imagine it was a small suitcase if she's pushing it in addition to the pram so still doesn't seem crazy to me haha, we easily filled a small car to go on a ferry with just one child.

She LOVES to explain the “behind the scenes” - like ok so what? The final outcome is dismal anyway for all her thought process.

Why not not make THAT a reel though? “How to create a brief when working with photographer” or “How to do a brand deal that suits the brand’s needs and your style”. Anything would be more interesting that her stupid stories where she has to pause the recording when there’s no time left in the video and you can actually see her reach out to pause it. Such a pet peeve for me

Since it is a resort holiday anyway…she is ‘investing’ a few grands for this holiday, why not arrange for the resort to pick up and drop off. She is extra.

She mentions how the resort thought of even the smallest of details when it came to things for the baby so surely a carseat is something they can arrange.

And if I’m paying anywhere near £5-9k per person as a minimum that MUST include an airport collection/drop-off.

She overcomplicates everything and chooses to make her life harder. 🙄
