Life at this time of year is busy. On top of the usual demands of both grown ups in our house working full time, commitments of a blog and a scout troop to run, school and clubs for the children, there is also the extra pull of festive events, plays, Christmas parties and more. Sometimes […]
Yes I’m going to say it…. Christmas! Today is 100 days until Christmas, one hundred days until that crazy day where you eat too much, drink too much and generally over indulge! 100 days until all the preparation, list writing, visiting Santa, bargain hunting, present buying and wrapping will have finished. The presents will have […]
World Book day is almost upon us for another year and this time I had the challenge of finding a costume that met the approval of my rather fussy nine year old. Although he wanted to join in with the day and demonstrate his love of reading, he sees himself as too ‘grown up’ for […]

Getting Children to eat their ‘5 a day’ is no easy task, but it is one that’s on most mothers minds at mealtimes! I am quite lucky that both my son Benjamin, who is four and my daughter Elizabeth, who has just turned one really enjoy eating a wide variety of fruit and vegetables, but […]

So Bambino Mio have challenged me to use the Miosolo on Elizabeth overnight! Although I have been using cloth on her botty at night since she was around six months old I have a specific part of my nappy stash that I keep as ‘night time nappies’, (these are made of bamboo, are bulkier that […]
