My love for the Body Shop goes way back, Twenty years or so back in fact! I grew up in a village really close to the Body Shop HQ in Littlehampton and my mum took me on the factory tour a few times as well as numerous visits to the ‘Trading Post’ which was an… Read More
Another week has flown by in the blink of an eye, probably because we’ve been so busy! I’m still feeling a little behind on blog things, I have two events to write about and then I’m more or less there and have been turning down review items in favour of sleep, reading books and spending… Read More
I have hankered after some Hunters for years now. My last pair of wellies were kindly given to me by a friend who picked them up after a festival she was working at. They were floral and looked almost brand new… great! I thought. I then wore them to Wicker Man festival in Scotland, where… Read More
Arlo has reached that ‘oh look i’ve managed to grab something in my tiny hand by accident, better stick it in my mouth pronto’ stage so although it doesn’t mean a tooth will appear any time soon it probably means he can start to make use of teethers soon! I think Athena got her first… Read More

In light of recent iSize regulations coming into place that state a child must be rear facing until 15 months as a minimum (more info here) this will be something that a lot… Read More
This week has absolutely flown by! This weeks main themes are ‘HOT’ and Charlie and Lola… On Sunday Sam did a half day at work so we took a walk to my friend Anna (Anna’s Drawing Room) Artists Open House, which was lovely! We got to catch up with the lovely duo behind Hello Dodo,… Read More
“Don’t lift anything heavier than your baby” they told me after my C section.”that includes your toddler”. Oh. So the decision to take the side off Athenas cot was made rather hastily after Arlo arrived home. We didn’t want to do it all of a sudden though in case it was too much change all… Read More
