My Little Girl has Started School. School. Two weeks ago I held her hand as she walked through the classroom door, the same classroom door that I stepped through with my son 4 years ago. It feels like yesterday that I held his hand while wearing my baby girl on my chest, thinking it would […]
Although it seems like we have been surrounded by ‘Christmas’ for months, in shops, online and on the TV, we have now entered December and I finally feel justified in feeling festive! As soon as we are settled in our new house the Tree and decorations will go up (probably before anything else is unpacked!) […]

January can be a miserable time of year, the excitement of Christmas is over, there are bills to pay and the weather is pretty rubbish. There is one way to escape the dreariness of the long cold nights and put a smile on your face, and that is to plan your adventures for the year […]
I apologise that this isn’t really a post about ‘penny pinching’ but this issue has been around the media today in response to research just out that controversially suggests, ‘babies should sleep in mother’s bed until age three.’ So everyone seems to have something to say about this from the TV, to the papers and […]

Our first Guest post for Real Nappy Week from Geri Smith a self confessed cloth nappy addict! I am not an eco-warrior hippie earth mother. I am not even close. I have neither the patience nor motivation to recycle everything (anything), grow my own veg, sew, knit and crochet my own clothes, and I am far […]
A giant Playmat and a portable playroom… I was delighted to recently be given the opportunity to review a fabulous new product to the nursery market! I’d read a few things about this new ‘giant playmat’ after it’s launch at the Excel Baby show last Autumn and was intrigued! Like most Mummies I had bought […]
‘Under the Sea’ is Ben’s current topic at school and he absolutely loves it!
