Here’s where you’ll find posts for what the kids did… playing, wearing, doing, and more!
This months favourite books are all animal related, purely coincidentally though! This Is NOT a Cat By David LaRochelle, illustrated by Mike Wohnoutka Set in ‘mouse school’ this book cleverly only uses the five words from the title, the rest of the story is told purely through the fun pictures to show the little mice… Read More
There’s no denying that the days are drawing in and soon we’ll be turning clocks back to eke out some extra daylight, it’s the time of year where I like to line up some fun indoor activities for the kids so I can spend less time freezing in the park watching them hurtle about apparently… Read More
The latest toy addition to our household are Bing and Sula, who not only talk to the kids but to each other too. Bing is often on the TV at our house, I’ve got ever episode on my tablet too and it’s often saved our sanity at meals out or train journeys when I need… Read More
Lucky Athena got a new dress from the A/W Frugi collection because she is growing at a rate of knots! She only turned three in June but is now outgrowing all her 3-4 sized clothes so when it came to choosing something I thought she could do with a new dress to get us started… Read More
My two little people have been lucky enough to get a new outfit from the A/W collection from Jojo Maman Bebe. Athena picked her own dress and cardigan out, but I decided on a pair of dungarees for Arlo because I just don’t think he really minds what he wears just yet but I want… Read More
The latest addition to our household is a Code-a-Pillar from Fisher Price. He’s a cute little guy who does exactly what he’s told so he can stay, he’s very obedient! He’s a new toy that is designed to help kids get a head start on learning about coding. I must admit I thought this was a bit… Read More
We spend a lot of time in PJ’s in our house, which suits us all quite well I think! Now that Arlo is walking sleepsuits with feet can be restrictive – he either falls over in them if they’re on the snug side or if he’s running on the smooth kitchen floor, or if they’re… Read More
In my mind there is nothing more quintessentially ‘childhood toy’ than dolls house. I’ve always dreamt of getting Athena and Arlo a huge mansion with several storeys and rooms full of miniature furniture, carefully wallpapered interiors and tiny little lights and curtains at the windows. Who am I kidding, it would be for my benefit… Read More
A very short post for ‘What Athena Wore’ this week as I am cuddling up with a poorly poxy Arlo (knew he’d catch it eventually!) but I wanted to share Athena’s super cute outfit from Fathers Day. We had a glorious day out at Amberley Heritage Museum for their ‘Dads do too’ event where… Read More
A couple of weeks ago we were invited to the premier of the new Thomas & Friends film ‘The Great Race‘ and to celebrate the launch Arlo was sent some Thomas clothes to put to the test!
