A couple of weeks ago I had a the pleasure of having a proper natter about all things newborn with my friend Lyndsay. We met through blogging before I had my children and she’s just had a baby of her own, though she was pregnant when we got together. I don’t think there are any… Read More
Tots Bots have brought out another new collection of prints, and we’re lucky enough to be helping to unveil them!

There are so many clocks available these days to help our little ones get to sleep and wake up at the correct times. You can choose from night light clocks, coo-coo clocks from the Cuckoo Clocks Shop, or themed clocks, like Sam the Lamb. Athena used to sleep in till around 8am but for about… Read More

Little Tikes have made the leap from toys to travel, and we were lucky enough to be sent their Stroll n Go stroller to put to the test. I’ll admit that i’m not a huge fan of strollers, much preferring the sturdiness and adaptability of a bigger pushchair so I was keen to put it… Read More

A few months back Sam was shunted from behind in the car, thankfully neither Athena or I were in the car at the time (I was pregnant) but the car seat was so we decided to replace it (with a Joie Steadi – here’s our review) which can be both forward and backward facing. If… Read More
