My Mum’s Idyllic Garden!

Posted in Uncategorized

My Mum lives in a deceptively big bungalow in Norwich and I love it. From the outside it looks tiny but once through the doors the four bedrooms and 2 living rooms feel huge. I suppose it’s tardis like in that respect. It’s not in the most desirable location really but when my parents broke up 28 years ago and my Mum was buying a family home just for us she decided to do what was important to her and […]

Munchkin Meets Disney!

Posted in Uncategorized

We love a baby product in this house, have you noticed? And one of the things we seem to review rather a lot of is cups and dining products! We literally have tried them all I think and although I’ve found some good ones, I think my favourite brand so far has got to be the Munchkin range. Every single cup, bowl or tub that we’ve used from them has been spot on so we were more than happy to […]

Alex Winters Interview – He’s Gonna Be Back At Lollibop 2013!

Posted in Uncategorized

Ok, I’m going to admit it, I’m not very cool and I get just a little bit start struck when I see all the children’s TV stars out and about milling with the crowds at Lollibop! I even got a bit like a silly school girl when we saw Rastamouse in 2011 but both years that we’ve been we’ve seen Alex Winters from CBeebies, and we in the Rock ‘n’ Roller Baby household were positively giddy! Ah, he just looks […]

Peppa Pig World Excitement!

Posted in Uncategorized

We went to Paultons Park to visit Peppa Pig World when Florence was just 20 months old. She was already heavily into Peppa Pig and even though she was very little she still remembers it. I had thought that perhaps she remembered it only because we have talked about it but not very long ago she said ‘Do you remember I went on the helicopter ride with Phoebe at Peppa Pig World?’. She astounded me because she did indeed go […]

Point Scoring In The Night!

Posted in Family Life

I’ve written before about how middle of the night awake times with babies create tensions and arguments between my husband and I. I think that never before children do you argue in quite the same way and the things that are said in the heat of moments when little sleep has been had, I find, can be thoroughly vicious in a way you would never normally be! You might speak terribly to the one person in the world who you […]

Rock ‘n’ Roller Around The Dinner Clock Tonight – Richmond Mini Meatballs Recipe! (#Hungry2Happy Challenge)

Posted in Uncategorized

We took part in the #Hungry2Happy Challenge last week when we made our Flower Kebabbles On A Pesto Pasta Meadow recipe. The challenge is set by Britmums using Richmond Mini Meatballs in new, exciting and fun recipes! We had lots of fun and the meal was such a success I thought I’d do another one and enter the challenge again! The Richmond meatballs have a 52% meat content which goes against the conception I had of them and my children really […]

Skin Salveation – Products for Sensitive Skin!

Posted in Uncategorized

A few weeks ago Jimmy came out with a rash on his back and I had no idea what it was or why it had come. It didn’t look too bad and I suspected it was a reaction to something but what? We had recently started using a nappy that we’d not used before so I stopped using them but the rash persisted. It spread to his legs and I took him to the Doctor who advised it was dermatitis.He […]

Shhh, Father’s Day Surprises!

Posted in Uncategorized

It’s a good job that Jonny doesn’t really read my blog because if he did he’d find out what I have planned for the Father’s Day weekend! We love a good family day out and as we are going to be in Norfolk I have planned for us to   go to a theme park both Jonny and I used to love as children! Pleasurewood Hills in Lowestoft used to be one of my favourite places to go as a […]

Dentyl Active Mouth Wash – A Review!

Posted in Uncategorized

Jonny and I have been using Dentyl Active Enamel Restore mouthwash for the past few days and have decided we really like it. It’s a bit different to other mouthwashes because it shows you (bit grim) in the sink all the plaque and debris that the toothbrush didn’t manage to get when you brush! It’s called a two phase mouthwash and is the only brand of mouthwash in the UK which uses this sort of technology. The plaque and left over […]

Where Does Milk Come From?

Posted in Uncategorized

My daughter often asks me questions like ‘Where do we get beans from?’ Or, ‘What trees do strawberries grow on?’ They’re all easily explainable with a nice little non upsetting answer and she loves to learn. That might have been about it for her farming knowledge though? She definitely didn’t think the chicken she eats is also the chicken that she likes to visit at farms and I wasn’t entirely sure if I should, or how I could, explain it […]
