I missed last weeks ‘stuff on a Sunday’ post because I spent that day mostly being sick. Arlo got sick on Friday, throwing up all over himself in his pushchair (thank god he wasn’t in a sling for once as we were out shopping!) and we’d walked into town, so I had to cart him and Athena home quick sharp…
So the final gift guide in the series is one for all those people that you’re just not sure what to get, either you don’t know them that well or they are the sort of person that buys what they want when they want it! I’ve put together a selection of things so that if you are in the position…
If you’ve lined up a family holiday to the Costa del Sol, in the south of Spain, then the kids and the hubby are in for a treat. The sunny, cheerful Costa del Sol in Spain boasts a stunning capital city (Malaga), plus various resorts offering a range of activities. If anything, you can almost have too much fun! Here…
This week is looking up thankfully, as the last week and a bit had been pretty dismal. They say bad things come in three’s and I think that’s about right. First of all I had a lovely Sunday planned with Donna, one of my best chums who I don’t get to see that often. We were planning on meeting…
My last gift guide was for the ladies, this one is for the gents in your life, husbands, brothers, dads or cousins, hopefully something to suit someone on your gift buying list!
Next up in my festive gift guide series is presents to suit ladies, be they mums, sisters, colleagues or friends… I know it’s tempting to just attack the boots 3 for 2 offers and stock up but who really needs that many bath sets? Here are a few things that I am either giving or would like to get under…
Ahh, don’t they look angelic? Well mostly they have been apart from the odd lack of nap induced outburst of emotion. Arlo has had a cold for the last two weeks, including a couple of croupy nights and then a couple of days of a sick bug where he threw up in the buggy twice and once projectile style over…
I have always wanted to try kinetic sand out, as much for me as for the kids and it’s actually been on our amazon wishlist for a while now, but never actually made its way to us! We were sent the Spinmaster Kinetic Sand Sandcastle kit to try out, and it was a big hit with the kids and both…
A super short post today, I wanted to share Arlo’s awesome Stag leggings from Three Bears Threads! Plus commemorate the last photos of him taken with his mop of curly slighly mullety hair! He had it all chopped off yesterday! He suddenly looks really grown up and I am a little sad he’s looking less and less like a baby…
I don’t often remember my dreams any more. I’m not sure if it is because I rarely get a chance to get into a proper deep sleep (cheers, kid) or if now I’m older I have too much to think about. My brain starts thinking about the day ahead as soon as I wake up so that any chance of…
Hygge is a Danish concept which roughly describes that warm and fuzzy feeling when you’re surrounded by good food and good company, and feeling comfortable. For me that would be a Sunday afternoon at home with my family, a box of biscuits close by, a warm cuppa, a lovely smelling candle and all of us piled onto the sofa, snuggling…
So the next little gift guide in my festive series is all about presents for foodies, although to be fair most of these gifts would go down well many a grown up sort of person! (Apart from the last thing that kids would love too!) There are a couple of discount codes included too! [You can see my last gift…
