You may remember back in August I wrote a post about how we were going to give TREADS school shoes a try this year. Well Connor has now been wearing them for 4 months, they have lasted one full term and they are still going strong as we head in to the second, which I am really impressed with as by now we are normally on our second pair at least. I have no idea […]
Manchester is one of my favourite cities as there is so much to do whether you are on your own, with friends, on a romantic break, or spending time with children. As it’s only 40 minutes away from us we are often able to just pop over for the day but if you are coming from further a field then there is so much choice in regards to accommodation too that you can easily stay […]
If you are in the market for some bottles for your baby then you might find it is quite a headache trying to choose which brand to go with, especially if this is your first child or you are still pregnant and have no idea what type of feeder your baby will actually be. There are so many different brands available and they range in price as well as what they offer that it isn’t […]
Valentines day is just around the corner and for some couples this is the ultimate holiday, for others it goes by un noticed, I would say my husband and I are some where in the middle. We always acknowledge it, buy each other a card and a token gift or two and then usually have a nice meal at home with a movie and a bottle of wine once the kids are in bed. This […]
In November we had our third (and final) baby and I knew that, like with our previous 2, I wanted to breast feed this baby if at all possible. However, I also knew that this wouldn’t work if I was as prudish, shy, and embarrassed when it came to feeding in public as I had been the last two times. You see due to the big gap between babies 1 and 2 and then baby […]
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. Having once been the tiddlers nursery it was already painted baby blue and white, not very neutral and a tad out dated having not been re decorated for 5 years so […]
Christmas isn’t Christmas without a trip to the theatre to watch a festive panto and for us it has to be the Theatre Royal in St.Helens, one of our all time favourite theatres were Regal Entertainments Ltd never fail to put on a fantastic show and this years Christmas extravaganza is Aladdin, one we were very excited to watch. This year was our first time going to the theatre as a family of five and […]
