A pink explosion

Posted on January 26, 2012April 16, 2025 by jenny

I’m the first to admit I have no fashion sense at all and dress for comfort rather than anything else. I like to look nice but dread having to go shopping for a special outfit for a wedding or party. Having a boy has been great as he is so easy to buy clothes for….

A (miosolo) nappy challenge – day 1

Posted on January 17, 2012September 3, 2014 by jenny

A couple of week ago I was really delighted to be asked to take part in a real nappy challenge with some other bloggers. I’ve umm-ed and ahh-ed over real nappies, and whilst I would love to do my bit for the environment, I just didn’t know where to start. I’d already attended a nappucino…

Gingerbread house finds

Posted on January 15, 2012October 17, 2017 by jenny

It’s been a while since I wrote about my thrifted finds but the arrival of Little Sis gave me a great reason to start looking for bargains. There were a few things I knew I wanted to buy but knew we couldn’t afford to buy brand new so I began trying to find them second…

Reasons to be cheerful

Posted on January 14, 2012 by jenny

It’s been a while since I last joined in with Reasons the be cheerful (a weekly meme hosted by Michelle). Little Sis is now 6 weeks old and we all love her to pieces. She has fitted right in to our family and it’s difficult to believe she hasn’t always been here. She’s also starting…

My changing bag isn’t working for me

Posted on January 7, 2012 by jenny

My changing bag isn’t working for me. Not when I need another couple of bags to simply leave the house. Today we decided to go on a family shopping trip to Westfield Stratford, the super duper new shopping centre next to the Olympic site. I’m gradually getting used to getting us all out of the…

Out with the old

Posted on December 31, 2011 by jenny

2011 has had its ups and downs like any other year but we’re ending it on a high – with an unexpected couple of days with family on the Isle of Wight. I won’t be making any New Year resolutions that I won’t be able to keep. Instead I have my Day Zero list which…

Coping with reflux

Posted on December 28, 2011 by jenny

Little Sis is now one month old and we all totally love her. Big Brother constantly holds his arms out towards her when he wants to give her a cuddle and spends hours looking at her and giggling or giving her a kiss on her head. His behaviour, for the most part, is lovely and…

Something new for Little Sis

Posted on December 8, 2011October 26, 2015 by jenny

I’ve been feeling sorry for Little Sis as virtually everything she has is second hand from her Big Brother. Last week (before she arrived!) I was sorting through bedding and blankets and found one cream blanket which had hardly been used. So I thought I would give it a bit of a makeover with some…

Breakfast picnic anyone?

Posted on December 5, 2011 by jenny

Difficult to believe Little Sis is one week old today. Edward is a completely lovable handful, constantly wanting to hold his sister, rock her in her chair, put dirty nappies in the nappy bin as well as being his typical toddler self. Poor Little Sister is just fitting in and going with the flow. She…
