This time last year I was pregnant. Twenty-nine weeks by Christmas Day, to be precise, so I’d hit the third trimester and was well and truly blooming. Now I’m as far away from being pregnant for as long as I was pregnant for, I’ve donned […]
Date night was never a thing for us before we had Reuben; being spontaneous we’ve always liked to do things in the moment. If we felt like going for a day out somewhere, we did. If we fancied seeing a movie at the cinema, we did. But […]
I’ve been a big fan of Christmas for as long as I can remember; ever since I was little I’ve started listening to Christmas music in September and I used to play ‘Christmas tv’ with my sister (we so would have owned Youtube had it been around […]
Every baby milestone is a thrill but combine a ‘baby’s first’ with our favourite seasonal holiday of the year and you’ve got one event worth celebrating with a bang. This year it’s Reuben’s first Christmas, so it’s a hugely exciting time for us as first […]
Great fitting bras have been thin on the ground for me lately. You’d think as a lingerie blogger I’d be so inundated with fabulous lingerie that my underwear draw would be bursting at the seams – it is, but not with anything I can wear. I’m […]
I love Christmas! I’m one of those apparently annoying people who starts playing Christmas music in September and I get planning the festivities before the sun’s even dried up the leaves on the trees. This year I’m beyond excited because it’s Reuben’s first Christmas. He’s going […]
Reuben enjoys being carried around but I’ve never carried him in a sling as part of my everyday routine. I’m not what you’d call a babywearer. Unlike some of my mum friends who just ‘got’ it and naturally took to babywearing or went to the sling libraries, tried a million […]
Buying the essentials for our first ever baby, we barely knew where to begin. Launching head first into parenting books and baby shopping events, we had expectant parent written all over us. But all these expert advisers with their newborn must buys were just overwhelming and if we’d listened […]
Baby’s bedtime is a special time of day; it’s all cuddles and closeness with your little one as you say goodbye to the day together. But – it’s also a time when you realise you’ve made it through another 24 hours alive and can at last have a […]
Getting back into my pre-pregnancy shape hasn’t really been a concern of mine. Maybe because a now seven month old baby takes most of my energy and I’ve had enough on my plate to deal with to even think about doing anything else. But I’d be lying if I said, […]
There’s nothing like being trapped beneath a baby when you have things to do. Now obviously, I love nothing more than cuddles with my boy and I’m completely aware there’ll come a time sooner than I’m prepared for when he’ll not want to spend […]
If you’ve been following me recently you’ll know that we went to The Baby and Toddler Show at Eventcity in Manchester last Friday. As there were so many brands, stands of innovative products and workshops, I decided to split my round up into two posts […]
