As huge Netflix fans I’m so excited to have something to share with you today. If you have small children like me I’m sure you’ll know about the Lalaloopsy dolls. These were once rag dolls who magically came to life when their very last stitch was sewn, taking on the personalities of the materials that…
Like many people I love to craft but find my spare time squeezed by children’s parties, play dates, swimming lessons and food shopping. Life is busy and I find myself looking wistfully at my half finished sewing project or half cut paper template. Thankfully there are a few crafty days out which I can rely…
I’m a huge fan of creative toys which my children can play with independently. Aquabeads is one such brand that my children love. It’s a small bead toy (perfect for ages 4 and over) which sticks together with water. This means my children can choose their designs and easily make them, spray them with water…
If you follow me on Instagram you’ll see I have posted a few different kinds of photos recently. After 7 years of being a stay at home mum I’ve been dipping my toes into work outside of the home. It’s no secret I’ve been self employed for the last few years but I’ve been increasingly…

A few weeks ago we went to a screening of the latest Diary of a Wimpy Kids film. It’s a great family film and really encouraged my 7 year old to start reading the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul by Jeff Kinney This is the book…
Recently my 7 year old lost his first tooth. It wobbled and wobbled and I took him to the Dentist who gently pulled it out. I was pretty excited about this milestone as these seem to be few and far between the older your children gets. He was given his tooth in a paper bag…
I’m not a huge fan of this hot weather we’ve been experiencing. It makes it pretty hard to achieve anything. I’m hoping for a quiet week, especially as last week was so busy. I had a pretty intense week of work with one day off. You can probably guess that my daughter was sick that day!…
Little Sis is a very lucky little lady. She’s been quite poorly lately and seems to keep picking up the same tummy bug which is passing through her Reception class. She’s had quite a few days at home with me (which I secretly enjoy and I think she does too!). Last week she was at…
