    Red Nose Day 2013

    Red Nose Day is now into it’s 25th year and once again, the nation is gearing up to don their red noses, dolled up and raised that much needed money for all the good causes that Red Nose Day stands for.  Red Nose Day raises money to help people in Africa and also here in the UK.  In Africa it helps people affected by AIDs and HIV, healthcare, child workers and the poorest of the poor living in the urban slums. Your money saves thousands of people each year from dying of Malaria.  Here in the UK, Red Nose Day supports a whole range of issues. From mental health, domestic…

    Fun in the Kitchen

    The living room and boys bedroom are full of toys yet both Thomas and Charlie seem to like to spend their time in the kitchen as much as possible. I think they love the kitchen because it has so much going on in there. Buttons that can be pressed, boxes, cupboards and activities that can only be done in the kitchen.  Now you’d think that baking would be the best thing for the boys to do in the kitchen but oh no! Not at all.  Even though Thomas does love helping me bake and Charlie loves eating the results, there are many more interesting objects lying around in the kitchen…

    Happy Mothers Day!

    Mothers Day is such a special day. The day you get to treat your mum and thank her for all she has done for you over the years. I saw this poem which was just so poignant for Mothers Day. Only One Hundreds of stars in the pretty sky, Hundreds of shells on the shore together, Hundreds of birds that go singing by, Hundreds of lambs in the sunny weather. Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn, Hundreds of bees in the purple clover, Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn, But only one mother the world wide over.      Written by George Cooper So don’t forget, you may have a busy…

    MAM Perfect Soother

    I have a secret fetish of collecting dummies. We have so many different MAM styles that we have enough to last us for about 4 babies (no, I’m not having any more children before you ask). I love the different themes that MAM do and the assortment of different dummies, the style, air, night and the perfect soothers, we have them all. Now MAM have brought out a 12 month+ Perfect soother. The Perfect soother has been designed to reduce the risk of misaligned teeth by having a teat which is 60% thinner than regular teats and is 3x softer too. The soother has been developed with the help of paediatric dentists…

    The Scented Jam Jar company

    The Scented Jam Jar company specialises in natural, organic candles which are ‘hand made with love’. All the waxes and oils used to make each candle are natural meaning no nasty chemicals getting into your system, just lovely scents filling your room.  I love candles and usually will have one burning every night. I think the scent cleanses the room and depending on my mood, can influence how I feel. I like fruity fragrances. They not only smell nice and give my room a punch of aroma, they also are not too overpowering and give a good background aroma rather than taking over the whole room.  I was sent 3…

    Lindam Safety Toddler Bed Rail

    Trying to find a bed suitable for Thomas has been hard work. He fidgets so much that when he was one year old we bought him a double bed just so he didn’t get close to the edge. This didn’t work though as he still rolled and fell out.  Ever since then, he’s been in a toddler bed. This is smaller than a single but has an edge rail to stop him from falling out. This has worked OK until now. He’s getting bigger and his fidgeting is causing him to hit the sides of the toddler bed. So it’s time for a single bed, like a big boy.  I was thinking of putting…
