Here’s where you’ll find posts for what the kids did… playing, wearing, doing, and more!
Watermelons seem to be very ‘in’ at the moment, and as well as this playsuit Athena has a dress and shorts with watermelons on that will probably feature soon! However today it’s a more muted watermelon style, with a lilac playsuit with tiny watermelon slices! I love the ruffles at the neckline and the elasticated… Read More
Before Arlo arrived this lovely little sleepsuit arrived for him from Zippysuit, but I had to wait a little while for him to grow into it, but now it well and truly fits and I love it! The obvious difference between this and a regular sleepsuit is the zip, it runs up one leg… Read More
I love getting my babies dressed in nice outfits (though some days we stay in our PJs!) so I’m going to start documenting my favourite outfits in a weekly post (until I run out of outfits anyway!) The only positive to a newborn baby growing so fast is needing to get bigger clothes so often!… Read More
The Fisher Price 3-in-1 Projection Mobile has been lulling us all to sleep recently… well the three of us who sleep in the same bedroom anyway! The mobile is designed to grow with your baby from birth upwards, it’s a motorised mobile that has 3 audio modes, a light projector than can be removed and… Read More
Toys can be educational without being boring and dull, and now Athena has reached an age where she understands more about the world and what goes on in it she’s finding a lot more enjoyment in toys that let her use her imagination a bit more.

What is more festive than a baby dressed up as a penguin? Not much! We were very kindly sent a penguin outfit from Time to Dress Up, who have a huge array of dressing up costumes! It took us a little while to decide what to pick, but anyone who knows me knows… Read More
I love to get Athena dressed, and try to dress her nicely on days when we are together (As opposed to nursery where I send her in old leggings and a top!) but when I am away next week I am already cringing at the getups that Sam will have her in. I am tempted… Read More
Bath times are the fun times in this house, Athena loves water and would happily stay in the bath till the water was cold I think! She’s a funny little thing and prefers to stand rather than sit down, and marches up and down the bath pulling shampoo bottles (and the toilet roll once!) in… Read More
Two weeks ago Athena and I were invited up to London to Prima Baby magazine HQ for a talk on the importance of play by Fisher-Price to launch the new #DiscoverYourWay campaign. We had an intro from Susie Boone from MadeforMums to explain why the research had been undertaken and then Dr David Whitebread from… Read More
I have been doing a lot of ebay and charity shop scouring recently with the sole aim to build up a library of wooden toys, and (if I do say so myself) I think I have done quite well! I will admit that part of the reason for loving wooden toys is purely aesthetical… Read More
