The boy is now at the age that we are beginning to consider sleep-overs with friends. I must confess that I am a little bit nervous about it, more so than him. He has only ever stayed with his grandparents without us previously, which are totally familiar surroundings. I worry that he will wake in the night and not know where he is, I dread the thought of him wanting me, or Daddy, and not being able to find us. Oh why do they have to grow up? I have decided that before we embark on his first proper night away from us to let him get a little familiar with his ...

What’s mine is mine…MINE!
So yesterday was a fun day, of sorts. Yesterday was one of now, since the big move, relatively few days that was just me and the kids. In Bristol I had these days down. Full on routine. Breakfast, park, Aldi, lunch, sleep, craft/bake, cafe, tea, Daddy home, bed. We all knew where we were and we were like a well-oiled, family-machine...most days. Since the move I seem to have lost my lone-parenting rhythm. Yesterday especially. Faced with a totally rain-laden sky our options for the day pretty much halved. And we needed milk. Stat. Knowing full ...
Monday Parenting Pin It Party #94
We are just six weeks away from our 100th #pinitparty folks! Can you believe it? I am so glad you are here and really hope that you will keep joining in. We have had so many great posts linked up and I have gained so much from it, not as a host but as a parent. I have tried out so many great craft ideas with the kids that I would never have thought of. I have made recipes I would never have come across. I have been honoured to read about some of the more challenging and even saddening aspects of parenting that you guys have shared. You have provided ...
New Baby Stuff, Where Do You Start?
I remember all too well being pregnant for the first time. Although ridiculously excited at the prospect of becoming parents Mr B and I were too scared to start shopping for baby stuff until we had our twenty week scan and all seemed well. Then, the sheer reality of the AMOUNT OF STUFF we needed to buy began to sink in. Where do you start? I am a list person. I made lists of lists of lists of the stuff that needed to be bought, borrowed, investigated, invented and suddenly the next twenty weeks didn't seem long enough to get it all done. Not only that, the ...
Monday Parenting Pin It Party #92
Happy Monday folks. I am hosting this week's parenting pin it party *shakes maracas* so come on in, grab a glass of punch and let's get started. There were so many lovely Valentine's posts linked up last week, you old romantics, it was hard to narrow down my two favourites to feature this week. I finally settled on these DIY Cupid's arrow marshmallows from Momdot.com. So sweet and just how I like my crafts, super simple! Definitely worth a pin for next year. Moving on from Valentine's the next post was always going to be a favourite of ...

Monday Parenting Pin It Party #90
Look up there folks, yep there *points*. It is our NINETIETH #pinitparty this week. Can you believe it? When I first started the linky I was so worried that nobody would join in and I would be sat, all on my lonesome, waiting for my virtual guests to arrive. But arrive you did. Each week we regularly see more than 50 or 60 of you come along and share with us your fabulous crafts, recipes, printables and family stories. It really has turned into the most fantastic parenting and family resource and for that I would like to say a huge thank you to all who have ...
