Bath time fun with Nuby

Bath times are the fun times in this house, Athena loves water and would happily stay in the bath till the water was cold I think! She’s a funny little thing and prefers to stand rather than sit down, and marches up and down the bath pulling shampoo bottles (and the toilet roll once!) in to play with. We used…

Stuff on a Sunday #3

Well, this week has been a fairly quiet one. I can’t actually even remember what happened on Monday if I’m honest. I suspect the highlight was a trip to Tesco though.   Tuesday to Thursday I was working, so nothing much to report there either, apart from the fact that I fell asleep on the train on the way home…

2nd pregnancy–the first three months

I found out I was pregnant again a lot earlier than I did last time (around 4 weeks this time) and for that reason I feel like I’ve been pregnant for half a year already! I’m going to try not to harp on about being up the duff all the time, but I might do monthly updates (probably more for…

First trimester pregnancy essentials

So the first trimester is over, finally! I wanted to write a bit about what I deemed as my ‘essentials’ for the first trimester of pregnancy as a bit of inspiration to anyone else, if it’s needed. Migrastick – I used to suffer from really bad migraines, they got a lot better during my first pregnancy and started to come…

Green People Organic Beauty

Last Friday I spent a lovely evening with some fellow Brighton bloggers and Amy and Poppy from Green People. They’d got us all together to talk about their newly launched makeup products and to showcase some of their best sellers too, along with some AMAZING smelling Christmas gifts, it is after all less than three months away! Green People create…

Stuff on a Sunday #2

Well swipe me! Two ‘Stuff on a Sunday’ posts in a row… that’s a good start! This week has been a good one, no illness like last week and I could finally announce my pregnancy after what seems like weeks of having to keep schtum about it! It was weeks in fact because we found out so early on! A…

A little announcement

  So I can finally let the cat out of the bag, or rather the bump out from under the baggy tops, I’m pregnant! I am well aware that ‘people are never as excited the second time’ (cheers mum) and don’t expect them to be but nevertheless it is still exciting to know that all being well we will be…

Boux Avenue opens in Brighton

A couple of Saturdays ago I was up and out early to meet Lyndsay for breakfast, and not long after we’d sat down for a good catch up in Costa we were joined by Rosie. The reason for our little meet up was the opening of the newest Boux Avenue  branch in Churchill Square shopping centre. When we arrived we…

Stuff on a Sunday #1

In a bid to get kick myself up the behind and take my blogging back to basics, as it were, I’ve decided to re start some form of weekly round-up type jobby and i’m calling it ‘Stuff on a Sunday’. It might not be a weekly occurrence, especially if nothing of any great excitement has happened but hopefully it will…

My favourite podcasts

I spend a fair amount of time listening to podcasts these days, and prefer them to music actually! I find that I don’t really hear music, it just fades away into the background but if i’m listening to a podcast I pay more attention! I don’t have an iPhone so I listen to them using the Podcaster app (it’s free!)…

Win a Scooter worth £60 with Skatehut! [ended]

I remember when I got given my first proper bike, it was a red shiny classic bike and I got it for my 8th birthday. I felt SO grown up, and had no idea as my mum had hidden it in the neighbours garden shed so I wouldn’t find it! A few years later that was replaced with a mountain…

Tips for taking your baby swimming with Huggies

We’ve been going swimming at least once a month since Athena was born and her first trip was when she was 9 weeks old. She loves being in the water and will happily splash around to her hearts content, going down the slides (even the big flume that you have to climb up all the steps to get to, but…
