Back to School With a Little Help from Stuck On You
With many parents facing the prospect of a new school term there can be a million and one jobs to tick off. I know one of my own parent's least favourite of which was the dreaded sewing on of name tags to that year's uniform. Thankfully, this no longer needs to be the odious task it once was and we have been delighted to review a school starter label pack from Stuck on You. The pack contains 54 iron on clothing labels (6 large - 60x12mm, 15 small - 48x10mm, 21 mini - 46x6mm, 12 dots - 24mm), 52 name labels (30 small – 48x10mm, 22 mini – 46x6mm), 8 shoe dots (24mm diameter) and 1 Cool Kids ...

A (slightly insane) belly-busting update #Insanity
Regular readers of my blog will know that I have had a pretty-much-constant battle with my weight since the birth of the boy. (Just search fitness, weight-loss or baby-weight on this site to see how much.) Prior to being pregnant that first time I had been somewhat of a skinny-minnie most of my life. Which I liked. Post pregnancy I have struggled to get anywhere close. Following a c-section I found it enormously difficult to recover both physically and mentally. Exercising was pretty much entirely out of the equation for a good six months and, even then, I struggled. I honestly ...

An Italian Adventure With The Cosatto Supa Pushchair
We were lucky enough this month to have a short break in Tuscany visiting Mr B's brother, Uncle Ben. On his last trip to the UK we made the discovery that our existing pram was unfortunately too big for the boot of his Fiesta. He had very kindly offered to pick us up from Pisa airport which had left us with a bit of a dilemma. Leave the pram behind and carry Little Miss everywhere, my arms ached just at the thought, or pay for a larger hire car. Luckily, in the nick of time, we were chosen to be a Cosatto Brand Buddy, yay, and were sent the Cosatto Supa pushchair to review. Being a ...

Happy Monday folks and welcome to this weeks' parenting pin it party which is being hosted by yours truly this week, yay! This means I get to choose two favourites from last weeks entries.

TV in the bedroom? The Great Debate
While Mr B and I agree on many things, there are some things that we simply cannot quite reconcile. Bread for instance. I like white. He likes brown. Neither of us like those inbetweeny-looks-like-white-tastes-like-brown ones. Tea. English breakfast, white, one sugar for me. Earl Grey, black, no sugar for him. Shepherds pie. Heaven for me. Hell for him. Oysters. Hell for me. Heaven for him. Ok, so none of these differences are exactly a problem and we can carry on our lives quite happily, even if we do need to buy two loaves of bread at each shop and different brands of ...
With a little bit of luck…
"Nobody gets justice. People only get good luck or bad luck." - Orson Welles Do you believe in luck? In some ways I think I do. I definitely think that some people are naturally more lucky than others. Take my mother, (Please, take her, my Dad would say.) She is definitely lucky. She has this uncanny knack of picking the most unlikely looking winner at the races simply because she likes the colour of the jockey's hat or the horse's name. She doesn't study form, she is often not at all bothered by the odds but she will say she just 'had a feeling.' Mr B on the other hand is the ...
