We’ve all done it. Left buying that important person a gift because we’ve a) forgot b) have no idea what to buy them or c) been so busy time has just run away with you and before you know it, it’s Christmas in less than 2 weeks! Eek! So to help you out, here’s my…
My little Princess is a huge fan of the hit CBeebies show Q Pootle 5. She watches it every morning, without fail before she heads off to nursery. She loves the adorable inhabitants of Okidoki so imagine her excitement when she found out there was going to be a feature length Christmas episode. If that…
When Villa Plus asked me which of their destinations I wanted to chose to help me create a festive celebration I knew it had to be the Costa Del Sol. As a family this is one of our favourite holiday destinations and we would spend Christmas in the lovely fishing town of Nerja in a…
Christmas is such an amazing time of year don’t you think? I love all the present buying (even though I can’t say I’m too fussed about wrapping), spending time with the family and enjoying a lovely feast together. Turkey anyone? For so many years I’ve been guilty of going overboard, with either presents or food…
Over the last few weeks Princess has been putting Organix Toddler snacks through their paces. She was sent a lovely box of Goodies to see what she thought, and she has really enjoyed giving them the toddler taste test.
Do you remember my post about just how shocking my bathroom looked? It’s taken me a little longer than expected to get it finished, but I have learnt some very important lessons along the way. Knowledge certainly is power, so knowing what I know now will certainly help me in the future if something needs…
I was delighted when Renee contacted me and asked if I would review her new book, ‘Become The Best You’. I have followed Renee’s blog, Mummy Tries since the beginning of my blogging journey. This is absolutely one of my favourite blogs so reviewing Renee’s book was a given for a few reasons, which will…
Wow, 17 years old already, now where on earth did that go? You’ve arrived at that strange grey area between teenager land and adulthood where you know so much, but still need to learn the lessons only responsibility can teach you. I just hope I have equipped you with enough to learn those lessons and…
Recently I was lucky enough to be sent the Cantaloop Nursing and Pregnancy Tank Top to review for the blog. I really like Cantaloop maternity lingerie and have already tried out their nursing bra which I love. The Cantaloop nursing tank top is suitable for both pregnant and nursing Mums and it’s definitely something I…
This weekend, my sister and I went along to the BBC Good Food Show Winter at Birmingham’s NEC. I’ve been a few times now and just love it. It’s a fab foodie day out so I was really happy to show my sister what all the fuss was about.
Wow! Here we are already little Pudding is a whopping 6 months old. It feels like it’s gone in the blink of an eye but it’s been an eternity all at the same time. It’s difficult to imagine a time when she wasn’t here now, not that I’d want to but it is an interesting…
I love Christmas. To be fair it hasn’t always been that way, but now I’m lucky enough to have my own family it really is a magical time. It makes up for those that weren’t quite so cheery back in the day. When we’re faced with dark nights and the many surprises a British winter…
Mr Washing Machine and I normally get along famously. We see each other most days, if not everyday. Perhaps even a couple of times a day, even when there’s other things I’d rather be doing. I tend to fill him up, put the cycle on and off he goes on his merry little way cleaning everything…
If you read my gratitude post last week you’ll already know I’m not very consistent. It’s a skill I long to possess but continues to elude me after a period of time. I’m pleased to say those periods of time are getting longer, so that is progress, right? I think we all have a trait…
Q & A with Justin Fletcher on CBEEBIES LIVE: Justin & Friends Mr Tumble’s Circus
At the weekend, we took the girls for another swimming session. Princess gets really excited at the thought of going swimming now and we are able to use it as a motivational tool to encourage her to do things like….BEHAVE! Bless her, she can be a little monkey, especially when he is tired. We wanted…
