Bath time

Posted on November 21, 2010 by jenny

Edward still *just* fits in his baby bath but I don’t think we’ll be using it for much longer. I couldn’t resist this little video that daddy took of Edward enjoying himself this evening. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jj-qCouA7Rc&fs=1&hl=en_US] We will be returning the Flip Ultra tomorrow. We’ve had a lot of fun using it and got some great…

Toast and swimming

Posted on November 19, 2010 by jenny

Edward enjoying his breakfast toast – he turned his nose up at his usual porridge with banana![youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMyrg54hkhE&fs=1&hl=en_US] We went swimming today which was great. I was supposed to dunk Edward right under the water twice but I was only brave enough to do it once! I’m not sure he’s completely happy with the dunking aspect…

A young Heat fan

Posted on November 18, 2010 by jenny

I took 22 videos today of Edward as I’ve been trying to capture him moving from sitting to crawling. In the process I’ve taken video of him playing with his toys, shopping in Tesco’s and on the car ferry. He’s been eyeing up my changing bag for a while but today he finally got hold…

Review: The Second Baby Survival Guide

Posted on November 4, 2010 by jenny

Almost since the day we took Edward home from the hospital I’ve been wondering when was the best time for baby number two. I love Edward and I’m surprised how much I enjoy being a mother. I’m not sure what I expected but the last seven and a half months have been exciting and exhilarating…

Posted on October 24, 2010February 8, 2021 by jenny

We were lucky enough to be invited to London Zoo to help celebrate the launch of the new Royal Mail Winnie the Pooh stamps. This was the first time that we had taken Edward to London Zoo so we were all very excited. Winnie the Pooh stamps at London Zoo We saw penguins, an owl,…

The Baby Show

Posted on October 23, 2010May 11, 2017 by jenny

Today we visited The Baby Show. We spent 4 hours visiting stands, playing with the latest baby toys, tasting the latest snacks and collecting goody bags like there was no tomorrow! I won tickets, and an essentials b.box which I collected today, from Koo-di. The Show was an experience like I’ve never experienced before and…

A tourist in our own city

Posted on October 22, 2010September 4, 2024 by jenny

Today we met my cousin and her family as she hadn’t yet met Edward. We had lunch in the cafe at the Mamas and Papas on Regent Street. The food is delicious, the location is perfect and it’s never too busy as not many people seem to know about it. Edward got lots of kisses…

Bringing back bath time

Posted on October 20, 2010May 2, 2012 by jenny

I love this picture that I took tonight. We decided it was about time we re-introduced a regular bath time to our night-time routine. Over the last few weeks Edwards’ eczema has improved so much it’s difficult to believe I used to cry over his poor cracked skin. For a while we decided not to…
