What to take in a nursery bag
Mummy gets my bag ready for nursery the night before, but I like to include my own things just as we’re walking out of the door. Anything to cause hassle and panic is great fun, although there is the danger…

300 Picture book challenge – week 6
I’m loving our 300 picture book challenge, as there’s just so many books to discover and enjoy. It’s also great to get one on one time with N to sit together rather than doing other things as he plays. I…
Ikea fun and little handy man
N is very definitely better at the physical thing than the whole drawing and art area. Although he will sometimes pick up a pen and say he’s drawing a tractor or a person, and there may be a vague shape…

Fingers crossed, we’re over the bumpy swimming patch
After last week’s stroppiness and ensuing nightmare swimming lesson, I have to admit I was a bit concerned at how it would go this week. I made sure we talked about getting ready to go swimming early on in the…
Review: Haba Tack Zap On Duty
I’m not big on DIY. Thankfully the OH’s pretty handy around the house if required and it appears that N might take after him. Or at least he’s currently enjoying any opportunity to wield a hammer or screwdriver (our recent…
300 Picture book challenge – week 5
So it’s week 5 of the picture book challenge, and we’re still going strong. I can’t believe someone’s already managed to hit 300 after only 1 month, but we’re definitely well on target, if we can keep getting hold of…
Mr Independent Pre-schooler – choosing his own clothes
The other day, my mother-in-law mentioned that although we’d missed the terrible twos, we were obviously getting terrible threes instead. I thought it wasn’t the case, but there’s definitely been a big change and independence is one of the things…
