Heard Of Campingaz?! We camp a lot in the fairer weather (I’m no Bear Grylls) and this summer we’re looking forward to lots of sunny weekends away by the cost in our Coleman tent. We got it last year and it has black out bedrooms which are PERFECT with children. I’ve never known Jimmy sleep so well or for so long as when he’s in this tent and the only thing which doesn’t make it perfect for us now is that […]
Dearest Raffie, 7 months and you are such a little super star! I can see you will be determined and gentle like your sister and cheeky and happy like your brother. Your personality gets more interesting every day and you are just so much happier now that you’ve mastered the art of rolling from your back onto your front! You can also sit unaided (mostly) and you are trying lots of foods. You seem to really like a puree if […]
Yellow Zebra Safaris wasn’t a company I had on my radar until I was invited to a little party in London to get to know them better. If I’m honest safaris in general let alone a holiday company specialising in the luxury versions of them was quite far from my mind. We have three small children, we wouldn’t take them on safari… Would we?! Erm… Actually the answer would have been no before the party but now it’s a big fat […]
Happy Birthday Jimmy – You’re SIX! I’ve literally just drawn breath after all the celebrating we’ve done and it’s almost a week since your actual birthday! If this is what six is like then man you’re a party animal! Jimmy you are amazing at 6! I think you are unique in everything you do with this really great little sense of humour. I adore how quirky you make life with your brilliant comments and bright personality! You are amazing at […]
Fashion World jump suit goals are winning for me at the moment! Have you used the online shopping platform? I hadn’t until just now but I’m SO pleased with what I ordered I know I’m going to be back for more! I love fashion but for me, at the moment, with 3 small kidorinos, it’s not always the easiest of tasks to top up my wardrobe. If I go into town with just the baby while the big kids are […]
The new Stokke XPlory V6 is launching tomorrow and ahead of the big party to celebrate, Raffie and I have been one of the first families to use the updated and much loved stroller! Now we are very familiar with the Stokke XPlory having used a V4 with Jimmy and a V5 with Raffie from birth. I just wrote about how much we enjoyed using the carry cot on the V5 with the Raffster a couple of week’s ago and how […]
I’ve entitled this post Easter Holiday Fun but actually, for half of it we were quite poorly. The big kids had sickness bugs and Jonny too while I had Norovirus. I’m not sure if we all had Norovirus really but I definitely came out the worst and for the first half of the holiday I was pretty much bed bound. It wasn’t much fun and Jonny, who had taken the week off work (typically), was having to do most of […]
Easter has been a bit of a washout for us both in terms of the weather (I need some sunshine) and because we’ve been struck down with Norovirus. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so ill and the big kids and Jonny have also had a bit of a bout so all in all it’s not been great! Jonny was off for the first week on holiday but I was so poorly I couldn’t do anything and everyone else tag […]
Dearest Raffie, Six months. Half a year. A half birthday! I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again, time is going SO fast it’s like we’re on a hill and running down it as fast as we can while gravity pushes us a bit harder. I love it but I don’t half wish it could slow down a bit too. Because these moments that have happened in the past six months, the ones which have taken my newborn from […]
We went to London today to do a couple of fun things in a bid to kick the Easter holidays off in style! We were not terribly happy that the first couple of days off school had been full of sickness bugs so we had to make up for lost time and boy did we cram it in and do just that! First off we went back to Dinosaurs In the Wild at the Greenwich Peninsula so that we could […]
