One Word…

I read a post by the lovely Tara over at Sticky Fingers Blog, where she has summed herself up in just one word. Just one. And then asked other bloggers to share theirs, too. Yes, I’d love to do that, sounds fun. And then I sat here about to write this and share my one …

A Little One-on-One Time

Boo now goes to pre-school for two days a week, which means that it’s just me and the Little Man for those days. Now, he does like his naps, so I manage to get some work done in the mornings while he sleeps, and then it’s lunchtime and we’re off out after that. Invariably, ‘off …

A Rainy Weekend

So how’s your weekend been? Wet and windy like ours? I’ve really felt it not being able to get out to a park or go for a lovely walk this weekend, but it’s just not so enjoyable when it’s pouring with rain (especially as Little Man hates keeping his rain cover on the pushchair and …

Djeco Collage Kits – Review

Boo was very excited recently to win a drawing competition, over at This Mummy Loves. The theme was ‘movies’ so she drew Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel (complete with Pascal!) and Smurfette. She enjoyed every moment, of course, and will be entering again this month, with the theme of ‘Halloween’ – why not get your little ones …

Little Man, in motion, wreaking havoc wherever he goes. Boo ripped open cards and presents at the speed of …

An Arty Autumn Outing

We had a ropey start to our week. Little Man had had his MMR jabs, and then, as I understand often happens, 10 days later he was not himself. He woke crying in the night at 2.45am, and then barely slept after that. Suffice it to say I was a little tired, too! It was …

3 Months Blogging

3 months already! This still feels new to me, but then on the other hand, it’s become so ingrained now that I can’t imagine not blogging. I’ve published 94 posts and had over 1100 comments now. I’m continuing to love Twitter and Pinterest, pop over to Facebook, have discovered the joys of Instagram and am …

Boo is 4 Today

My little girl is starting to turn into a big girl. She is 4 today. Fours year ago, she initiated me into the world of motherhood. I’ve learned so much from her and she’s given me so much joy, worries, giggles, frustrations and delights. My life is nothing like it was before her, as she …
