Dear Diary: Center Parcs August Challenge

This month Center Parcs are asking us to sit down with the little ones and record some of our special memories of this Summer.  Steph, a Center Parcs Community Manager has some great ideas on how to get creative with this and below is my favourite tip of hers:   "Write down your memories and pop them in an empty jar. Hang onto the jar until next summer, and you can open it and reminisce, or even get some inspiration!" So this is what we decided to do and, as it turned out, we already had the perfect jar!  You can find out how to make your own here. The boy and I sat down and had a ...

Awesome Ice Lollies: Center Parcs July Challenge

This month we were totally thrilled with the latest Center Parcs challenge, making our own ice lollies. Little Miss is now at the age where we need to be reducing her milk feeds and supplementing with snacks, whilst keeping up a good calcium intake.  This seemed like a perfect opportunity to get a little bit creative. These creamy strawberry ice lollies are so simple to make and use just three ingredients.  We got our inspiration from Center Parcs own Deb Rogerson whose tip was...

Summer Fun at Home in the Sun!

June 14, 2013 By jbmumofone Leave a Comment

Just as I begin my maternity leave the sun has decided to come out!  I am so delighted and am really looking forward to a lovely sunny summer at home. With baby number two due in a few weeks time this summer will hopefully see me, the toddler, Mr B and the new baby all at home together for the entire month of July with no work.  Fingers crossed the sun will keep on shining for us and we hope to spend lots of time in the garden. Here is what we have planned: Lots of barbecues. Is there anything nicer than cooking and eating out in the sunshine.  Mr B has been treated to a brand new ...

Welcome!

Jbmumofone is written by me, jbmumofone, and this blog is my baby. Although clearly I didn’t think this name through because I’m now a mum of two actual babies.

I blog because I love to write, and for sanity’s sake, and have been blogging since August 2011. So why not dig on in and explore?
