When we were pregnant with Layla we didn’t find out if she was a boy or a girl as just with our two other children we liked the element of surprise. This did however mean that when we decorated her nursery we had to opt for neutral colours and so we chose grey and orange, or grey and fox print wall paper anyway. We already had the wooden wardrobe and chest of draws from when it […]
You know that weird bit between Christmas and New Year, the kind of no mans land of the festive period where all the days merge in to one and you never really know what you are meant to do? Well this year we found the perfect thing to occupy some of that time. We went to Liverpool Cathedral to watch The Snowman Tour Live and it was the perfect way to extend the festive period, […]
When we were pregnant with our third baby we made the decision to keep the gender a surprise, although secretly I was convinced we were having a girl, which meant when it came to decorating the nursery we needed to opt for neutral colours.

It’s as if the more space you have the more stuff you keep hold of until you suddenly realise that you need a mass clear out and need to get organised.

Every year we try and treat our boys to a range of Chrstmas gifts that include a few items that they have asked for, some educational items, a couple of books and at least one game we can play as a family. Each year however it gets harder and harder to decide what to buy so if you are anything like us then hopefully these ideas will help you as much as they have helped […]
This year we will have a brand new baby and as I have been trying to get organised with our Christmas shopping early this year I found myself really pondering over what to get a new born for Christmas. I figured we could use Christmas to stockpile things that the baby might need/want over the next 12 months and put them aside until they grow in to it so I started shopping online and have […]
