I spent most of my childhood with my nose in a book and I’m really keen to pass this love of books on to my children. Firmly believing that it’s never too early to start reading with your child, I was delighted that Little Sis was sent a soft book and rattle for review from…

Apps to keep toddlers busy over Christmas!
Big Brother has been a bit poorly which means we’ve been spending lots of time snuggled up indoors trying to find things to do. Fortunately he likes playing games on the iPad and iPhone, in between episodes of Chuggington and coughing, so we’ve been trying out some new apps. Based on the original books by…
Thomas in Charge DVD!
Until recently Big Brother has been the *biggest* Chuggington fan. He literally eats, sleeps and breaths Chuggington. Until, that is, he caught an episode of Thomas the Tank Engine. Unfortunately when he wants to watch an episode he can only say “choo choo” which we have to interpret as either Chuggington or Thomas! Luckily for…
(Review) Anti-Wrinkle Firming Serum
I’m definitely at the (second-time) new mum stage where it’s a struggle to squeeze a shower into our day, let alone brush my hair or slap on some moisturiser. However, when I was offered the chance to try a new beauty product I thought this was a great opportunity to do something for myself! Artistry…
12 Days of Christmas – Day 11
On the eleventh day of Christmas my mummy bought for me – an Etch-a-Sketch for Etchin, (science kits for kids, an eco game for playing, friends from Sylvania, a Rastamouse that sings, a 3D Puzzle, Club Penguin Gifts, fun festive crafts and a hamster dressed like royalty!). A present that the whole family will want…
Home furnishings
It’s funny how the beautiful family home we bought before we had children is now bursting at the seams. We clearly never anticipated the explosion of stuff that came with having one child and with the arrival of Little Sis we are now constantly tripping over toys, children or cats and are looking forward to…
Nod Pod baby blanket
One of the things I had forgotten about having a baby was how much they dislike being washed and changed and Little Sis is no different. She suffers from reflux, just like her Big Brother did, which means we get through plenty of vests and babygros each day. Being a winter baby she needs plenty…
12 Days of Christmas – Day 10
On the tenth day of Christmas my mummy bought for me – Fire Trucks for Saving, (science kits for kids, an eco game for playing, friends from Sylvania, A Rastamouse that sings, a 3D Puzzle, Club Penguin Gifts, fun festive crafts and a hamster dressed like royalty!) I have to admit that until recently we…
Growing up
Having a little family of my own really makes me feel like a responsible adult! As soon as Big Brother was born we set up a savings account for him and we’re about to do the same for Little Sis. I must admit that my husband is in control of most of the important financial…
