On the sixth day of Christmas we designed our Christmas card. Last year it featured our new kittens with Santa hats on and this year it features Edward in his Santa’s Little Helper outfit. On a very cold day we took him to our local park, Alexandra Palace, and took lots of pictures. This was…

Christmas presents for a first Christmas
I think I may have gone overboard with Christmas presents for Edward. I’m not sure if it’s because it’s his first Christmas or because I want to spoil him (or both!). So far he has some lovely vintage wooden toys as well as clothes and toys. Everywhere I look I see more clothes I want…
Stokke table top
The lovely people at Stokke asked if we would be interested in reviewing a Table Top for our Tripp Trapp. Now we all love our Tripp Trapp. It makes mealtimes easier as we can all sit at the table together, it enables me to put Edward somewhere safe whilst I’m busy in the kitchen, it…

Oh Christmas tree…
My 6 year old niece has banned us from talking about the C word until the 1st of December (apparently her teacher has enforced this in the classroom). However we can’t help it and we certainly can’t escape it in the shops, on the radio, in the papers. Even the local Council have already put…
