It definitely feels like Autumn don’t you think? Not just the wind and the rain but the nights drawing in. You can’t walk through the park for kicking the fallen leaves. I’ve been dying to take my son for a walk in the park and when we did we made sure we collected tons of…
Pampers play personality survey
I just love surveys! We recently took part in Pampers play personality survey, by Pampers Village Parenting Panel expert, Dr Maggie Redshaw, and found Edward is a fan of Active Play! Your Child currently enjoys Active Play Your baby is probably on the move a great deal of the time. He enjoys physical activity…
I don’t know how she does it
It’s five months since I handed in my notice at work and a couple of months since I received my P45 – nothing says unemployed more that a P45! The good bits I don’t have to commute I can wear what I like I can work on my blog, with the excuse that I’m ‘keeping…

Gingerbread house finds
Last week was a bit crazy. It started with Edward’s first trip to the cinema, his first photo shoot for Mother & Baby magazine, a trip to the Gurgle blog awards (where I came third in my category and won a £250 Mothercare voucher) and ended with lunch with Elmo. Crazy, amazing and quite tiring…
Baking with a toddler
One of my favourite activities is baking with Edward. Mixing the ingredients is his speciality! But he also enjoys his role as chief taster 🙂 He was very excited when he heard we had been sent the new range of junior baking products from Renshaw to try for ourselves. Designed with mini bakers in mind, the…
Bumpwatch – 27 weeks
My bump seems to have doubled overnight! At 27 weeks Second Baby is measuring 35.5cm long and weighs over 760g. It’s still really active which is giving me peace of mind as I’m in the middle of a loooong gap between maternity appointments. My last scan was on the 25th July and my next scan…
Winnie the Pooh
Do you know a child who doesn’t like Winnie the Pooh? I have fond childhood memories of the Winnie the Pooh stories so was delighted to be asked to a special screening of the Winnie the Pooh film at Disney HQ yesterday organised by HUGGIES. When we arrived we were greeted by very big models…
