Colief Infant Drops! I’ve used Colief products ever since Florence was a baby suffering with terrible colic and their Infant Drops basically saved us from the evening terror after my friends and even my Doctor’s recommendation to use them. Beginning nightly at about 11pm her discomfort continued until day break and began when she was about 2 weeks old – we didn’t know what was wrong but it was pretty harrowing watching my tiny baby look so unhappy. I spent […]
Raffie Is Three! How’d those three years go by so quickly then? I cannot believe my baby boy, the one we still call “the baby” (although probably not for long I guess) is actually three today and I want to wish him a very happy birthday on my blog as he is truly the good morning sunshine of it and of our family! He loves his brother and sister as much as they love him, is grumpy and happy and […]
Modern Ways to Improve Your Home’s Security We had some pretty unpleasant experiences when we lived in a Victorian terraced house in London. The area, the East End, wasn’t perhaps the most salubrious of locations and on more than a couple of occasions people tried to break into our flat. It was a house converted into two and we had the upstairs, which might have made us feel a little more secure except our downstairs neighbour had a flat roof […]
Have A Motivated, Happy and Healthy Winter! I don’t know about you but the winter makes me feel like hunkering down, wearing cosy knits and not worrying too much about exercise or healthy eating. After a while though it does make me feel rather sluggish and come the spring I’m always kicking myself about not working out harder and having a better diet. Obviously there’s a brief flurry in January, just after the excess of Christmas, but mainly I go […]
Colief Breathe Easy Vapour Rub! We’ve had a weekend of the sniffles – inevitable after 6 months away from any germs and now being back at school so all three kiddos have a cold. The big two are great and capable of blowing their noses and expressing how they feel – Raffie, not so much! But there’s not that many products you can use to assist with a stuffy nose for someone so little and sleepless nights are on the […]
8 Great Destinations for European Medical Tourists Medical tourism is growing in popularity for several reasons. For some, it might be a way to save on their procedures, but for others, it’s a chance to recover while enjoying a luxurious holiday in an exotic location. Quality of care can greatly differ between destinations, however, and some might represent more of a cultural clash for European travellers. This is why it would be wise to consider a mix of exotic locations […]
22 Weeks Pregnant! 22 weeks and I so wanted to enjoy this pregnancy but I’m not really. People need to remind me how tough being pregnant is next time I talk about having another baby (jokes, four is enough right?)! It’s hard work and feels like there’s a long way to go with the sickness, the constipation and general tiredness but 18 weeks will hopefully fly by with Raffie’s birthday next week (HOW is he THREE?!) and Christmas. Once we […]
Staying Healthy This Winter As the UK settles into the change in weather and prepares to wrap itself up for the incoming autumn and winter season, chances are you will be finding yourself on the wrong end of minor illnesses, especially if you are a parent. After all, kids do love to share, and chances are anything they pick up during the colder months, they will kindly share with you too. Changes in weather affect everything from your skim to […]

Red Letter Days – A Better Family Christmas Present! I love Christmas Day, not because I’m religious, we simply don’t celebrate for that reason in this house, but because it’s a time to get the family together and enjoy some lovely company with good food and the all important presents. I prefer the giving to the receiving and seeing the looks on other people’s faces as they open their treats is treat enough for me! We do make everyone wait […]
