I am very excited to tell you that Edward has been chosen as a Maclaren Kid Tester! He won’t be testing other kids but as part of Team Maclaren we have the opportunity to test beginning….by Maclaren bath products! A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to win a bottle of their new Balancing…
Fabric advent calendar
Hooray, finally we can open our Advent Calendars and light our Advent candle. As we’re spending Christmas with my mum she mentioned we should sit down and start planning meals over Christmas! I don’t think we need to do this just yet but my mum is so organised she has already ordered the turkey and…
Cyber Monday
I hate to admit it but being married to a true IT geek means I am currently sitting in the hospital with my MacBook Air and MiFi card. My husband is asleep (and still no news when he will be discharged) so I am taking the opportunity to do a little online shopping. Apparently yesterday…
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…

Snowflake: Beautiful Christmas songs for you and your family

So I was very happy to review Snowflake, the new CD from The…
Day Zero – Month Two (November)
Another month has gone by so time to look at my progress with Day Zero. I’ve lost my mojo a bit recently but I’m pleased to say I’ve had time to undertake some new projects. Sewing/craft projects I’ve learned how to make cushions with a bit of help from my mum so I’ve made cushions…
QuinnyCasters News #8
I failed miserably at the first QuinnyCasters assignment. My reporting of the opening and assembly of the Quinny Zapp Xtra failed to impress the judges and I didn’t win a prize. So I bought the Quinny footmuff from ebay which I love! It can be used on the Quinny and the Maxi-Cosi car seat so…
Little fingers
We were recently sent a BabyDan magnetic drawer/cupboard lock to review. I was really happy to try this as Edward is increasingly moving around and it won’t be long before we have to have a serious think about locks on cupboards and stair gates. The magnetic drawer/cupboard lock was simple to fit and can be…
