Blogging has it’s perks and the best event of the year so far was the invite for me and Little Sis to meet Paula Radcliffe. I have photographic evidence: Yes she is tiny and I am huge but doesn’t Little Sis look pretty?! Moving on…. We were there to celebrate Pampers who have teamed up…

Win a yoomi self warming bottle
Last year we were sent a yoomi bottle to try with Big Brother. We got on really well and couldn’t wait to use it with Little Sis too. I have to be honest and say I didn’t use it for the first couple of weeks. I was in a total newborn haze and struggling with…
Baby Safe Homes UK review
We hear a lot about mumpreneurs but what about the dad-preneurs (I may have made that word up) – the fathers who have a great business idea, often as a result of the new challenges faced as a parent? Well last week I met one such man, Chris Jones, who runs a brilliant business offering…
Weaning 2.0
Little Sis loves watching us when we eat so we’re beginning to think about starting weaning in a couple of weeks. I loved weaning her brother and still enjoy cooking for him so I’m really hoping it will be as straightforward as I remember! I’ve been busy stocking up on products such as hard wearing…
Yummy Plum products for babies and toddlers

A (miosolo) nappy challenge – day 2
Challenge 2 – the out & about challenge Yesterday’s challenge was to test the ease of the miosolo when out and about. We had a couple of chores to do so bundled into the pram and off we went. We were only out for about 2 hours, but as Little Sis had a bottle before…
A (miosolo) nappy challenge – day 1
A couple of week ago I was really delighted to be asked to take part in a real nappy challenge with some other bloggers. I’ve umm-ed and ahh-ed over real nappies, and whilst I would love to do my bit for the environment, I just didn’t know where to start. I’d already attended a nappucino…
Gingerbread house finds
It’s been a while since I wrote about my thrifted finds but the arrival of Little Sis gave me a great reason to start looking for bargains. There were a few things I knew I wanted to buy but knew we couldn’t afford to buy brand new so I began trying to find them second…
