Discovering Baby Jogger

Last week we attended an event in London show casing the rather lovely range of pushchairs available from Baby Jogger. I am a push chair fiend, Lottie is in the stroller stage now she loves to walk everywhere but at certain times we still need it for her to have a rest, take a nap and more importantly load up with the everyday essentials three young children need! Poking about the Baby Jogger range was great fun the girls were happy jumping in so we could give them all a thorough test drive around the room.   Here’s Lottie modelling…

Glamping at Chessington world of adventures

A couple weeks back me and the girls were invited along to the launch of the brand new Explorer Glamping accommodation that is now available at Chessington world of adventures. This was the first time I would ever be taking the girls on a camping trip, I was bit nervous I am not much of a natural camper shall we say – more of a hotel kind of girl! However I thought it would be a fun little adventure for us and we love those so we went for it. We headed up straight from school and arrived just after…

Getting a good night sleep

Do you ever really realise the importance of a good night sleep until it starts being taken away from you? I know I didn’t, I have always loved my sleep but I took it for granted.

When I had my girls I saw what it actually meant to feel exhausted the 3am feeds were physically painful and the 5am wake up calls are horrendous. As the girls have gotten older they do sleep…

Captain Pug – Book Review

  Reading to my girls has been something I have done since they were newborn, it always relaxed them before bed, given us some bonding time and allowed us some chilled out time all together. We were recently asked to take a look at a new book by Laura James “Captain Pug“. Now Captain Pug is aimed at 5-7 year olds my girls are 2, 4 and 5 so a little younger but I still thought it would be a nice book for us to read together, a chapter a night giving the girls something to look forward to before bed.…

A Little Break At M by Montcalm Shoreditch

Over the weekend Caro, Sarah and I headed up to London for an event with Mumsnet, seen as it would take us each a couple of hours to travel in we thought why not make the most of it and stay overnight. After a little browse online we settled on the M by Montcalm drawn in instantly by the luxuriousness of the rooms, the thought of loosing a couple of hours in the spa and the fab location; in the heart of Shorditch surrounded by lots of amazing bars and restaurants. The building it self is just stunning as I…

I was recently invited by George at ASDA to take part in their #WheelieCreative bike campaign which involves us coming up with a theme for one their children’s bikes and getting a little creative.

I went for the WeeRide Slyde balance bike in pink, it caught my eye as it just looks so cool and different to other balance bikes I have seen. Lottie is…

My First Rolling Melodies Thomas – Review

Lottie is a huge fan of Thomas the tank engine right now, she loves trains/cars any kind of vehicle to be honest but she also loves watching the show so when I was asked if we would like to review the My first rolling melodies Thomas I just knew it would be perfect for her. As soon as Lottie spotted the train she was desperate for me to get it out so she could have a play with it, since that day she has been obsessed with it. The Rolling Melodies Thomas from Fisher-Price has a number of activation points and…
