Posts about our family life, you’ll get to know more about us by reading our ‘Scrapbook Loves’, Everyday Us, Sunday Scrapbook and other posts. Family posts cover all the topics that don’t really fit anywhere else!
This months Parragon book is a lovely mini library of Mickey Mouse books, with their own little storage box to keep them safe in. Athena pounced on these as soon as I opened them and they’re actually sat on her bedside table now and we’re reading them as a bed time story in rotation each… Read More
Panda and the Sparrow make gorgeous baby clothes from bamboo, meaning they are heat regulating (keeping baby cool in summer and warm in winter) plus Bamboo also offers a natural UV protection, and is hypoallergenic. Most importantly their clothes and blankets are just so cosy for babies! Arlo has been keeping cosy in the… Read More
I’ve been a bit slack on the Sunday update posts really, the last one was in September I think! In my defence nothing really exciting has happened, and sometimes when I think back over the past week it’s just a blur of bedtimes, playgroups and park trips. This last week however has been really long,… Read More
This week our mortgage got approved, and the survey carried out on our ‘last decorated in the 70’s’ flat, so with any luck we’ll be in sooner rather than later! The flat will need a lot of work, although we will give ourselves a few months grace before we start on any work, and the get… Read More

I initially thought I wouldn’t have much to write about for this months update, Arlo had already started to taste foods just before six months and was sitting up and wriggling backwards worm-style and nothing else seemed to have changed but then a few days ago he started to crawl forwards. Nothing is safe now,… Read More
Since Arlo arrived I’ve been increasingly absorbed in the wonderful world of Baby wearing. I ‘wore’ Athena on and off but never more than she was in a buggy. Arlo on the other hand spent his first three months in a stretchy wrap, snuggled close to my chest. Once he got too heavy to be… Read More
I wrote about the lovely day I had with I Just Love It a couple of weeks ago, and since then I have been dipping in and out of the website as I create my list of presents for friends and family, as well as shortlisting a few things that I’d love for the our home… Read More
From Babies With Love is a lovely company, donating 100% of their profits to help less fortunate children all around the world. I’ve written about them here, and introduced Maia who is a baby from Mozambique that was helped after becoming an orphan as a direct result of FBWL funds. Arlo is wearing their organic… Read More
