What the Kids Read: Mibo Animal Board Books

7th March 201710th February 2020
mibo board books

We reviewed the gorgeous Hardback (or ‘for best’ as Athena calls them) Mibo Books a while ago, and although we do read them quite often we have to be so careful as Arlo is still in the destructive phase and I don’t want anything to happen to the ‘best’ books! But now he can look… Read More

Toys: Thomas & Friends Nightlight Toy

1st March 201710th February 2020
Thomas & FriendsThomas & Friends

Arlo loves trains, still calling them ‘choochoos’ rather than trains, although he can say train of course! We were lucky enough to go and see the premier of the latest Thomas film ‘The Great Race’ last year, went to Thomas Land at Drayton Manor on little holiday and have got lots of Thomas  & Friends… Read More

Win a Valentines Bundle worth over £140! [ended]

1st February 201710th February 2020

I feel like the general consensus is that this year so far has been a little glum, to put it mildly. Naff weather, political happenings oversea that we can do nothing to stop, and general January ‘it’s dark when I get up, it’s dark when I get home, I’ve got no money and gave up… Read More

Win a Lumie BodyClock worth £99! [ended]

1st January 201710th February 2020

It’s that time of year where everyone is being enthusiastic about their resolutions, be that to eat better, exercise more or get more sleep. I have decided not to make any solid resolutions this year so that I can’t be annoyed at myself when I don’t achieve them, but what I DO want to do… Read More

The Family Album from Illustries [ended]

9th July 201610th February 2020

If you’ve just got the one child then it is fairly likely that their baby book is filled out completely, if you’ve got two or more then there is a high chance that these children’s books aren’t quite as filled in as they should be. Finding time to record memories is hard enough as it… Read More

Smart guide to Slow Cookers & win £50 John Lewis Voucher [ended]

4th May 201610th February 2020
slow-cooker

My slow cooker gets used far more than my regular oven these days so I thought a guide to slow cookers would benefit people who assume they’re old fashioned! So without further ado here are seven reasons why you should try using a slow cooker if you don’t already, and hopefully this smart little guide will… Read More

Win a 1TB Portable Hard Drive [ended]

21st February 201610th February 2020

I was very VERY close to losing all the pictures I had taken since Arlo was born, and from my last couple of months of his pregnancy. Sam bought me a lovely new laptop in January last year and when it unexpectedly died in November I hadn’t backed up a thing. No photos, no documents,… Read More

Win: Pirates & Pom Poms Children’s craft book

13th February 201610th February 2020

When I was due to go on Maternity leave with Athena I had a really long list of things I would do ‘when I’m home with the baby for a year’. Needless to say many of them are still not finished (or even started) and she’s three in a few months! I wasn’t as naive… Read More

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🎽 Two little runners 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🎽 Two little runners after their first race, the #Arunners junior mile along the beach ⛱️ Arlo shot round way ahead of Athena and I so I got a blurry action shot of him but not much else!

Sam did the longer 5 mile run along the sand whilst the tide was out but we walked home via the shop for congratulatory ice creams instead of waiting for him as it was well past bedtime by that point!

Ad|gifted🃏🦗🌈 We've been playing #Mantis a Ad|gifted🃏🦗🌈 We've been playing #Mantis a lot recently, it's a new game but has quickly become a firm favourite, with us and the friends we've played it with.

Each game lasts around 10 minutes so it's great to play whilst dinners cooking, but you might want to carry on during dinner as it's a little addictive and you'll end up playing a few rounds 🎉

The aim of the game is to score ten points first by collecting sets of coloured cards. Easy right!? No, because other players can sabotage you and steal your cards for themselves (but, you might have the chance to steal them back!) 

It's really easy to pick up and Arlo managed to beat us all on his first time playing 🤪 another plus is that's it's very portable and you don't need too much space to play, so perfect to take to friends houses, restaurants and on holiday!

It's from the team who bought us #ExplodingKittens and you can purchase this and other games from explodingkittens.com 💥

Jumping into the weekend 🤸🤸🏼‍♀️ Det Jumping into the weekend 🤸🤸🏼‍♀️
Determined to switch off this weekend, I've been flat out at work for the past two weeks & worked a lot of last weekend too. The problem (which is also a positive) with working freelance is that you can do it anytime but it doesn't necessarily mean you should 🤪 
We're spending time with friends, doing some gardening and hopefully some cross stitch on the new garden sofa I spent hours putting together yesterday!

🌊🐚 beach babies The one time I can (almost 🌊🐚 beach babies 

The one time I can (almost) guarantee no squabbling, no asking for snacks and potentially even to be left alone is at the beach. 
I didn't bring swimming stuff, a change of clothes or sandals but that didn't stop them going for a swim!
