Project 365 – photo a day week 4
It’s week of project 365, and there’s been a lot of ‘birthday’ bits going on for N as he turned 3.

Soft play for preschoolers and when to let go
I think we’ve been to our last birthday party for a few weeks. The last one was interesting with N to say the least. It was held at a soft play that we’ve not been to since he was probably…
Trendy Thursday: Thrifty toddler style
N always has plenty of clothes, although he does also get good wear out of them now he doesn’t grow as fast. Sometimes I do open the wardrobe and think there’s too much, but as I buy a size ahead…
Swimming and showboating – is having a swimming audience a good idea?
N never has a swimming audience. I was quite surprised at how many people used to come along for swimming lessons in support, to help and just generally to watch. Even when we did lessons during the week, there would…
From toddler to pre-schooler – Turning 3
N turned 3 today. As he’s now in both nursery school and the pre-school room at his day nursery, I really should stop calling him a toddler, and refer to him as a pre-schooler (toddler is so much easier though…
Our magic moments of 2013 – a chance for family fun
I know, I know, 2013’s been and gone, but as part of a ‘Moments that Mattered ’ campaign with Lloyds Bank, I’ve been able to pull together some special moments for us last year, that hopefully we’ll look back on…
Tongue tie speech therapy – done and discharged

300 picture books – Week 3
We’ve had a relatively slow week on books this week. N’s not been too keen to read in the mornings, and he also decided he wasn’t keen on some of last week’s library books. So several went back unread, and…
Review: Children’s activities with Weekend Box
With the wet weather recently, it’s been really hard to get outside and do some of our usual activities. Although I pin lots, we never really get round to indoor activities, and often if I do suggest them, N’s not…
Project 365 Day 12-18 (Photo a day)
It’s week 3 and days 12 to 18 of Project 365. I’m loving looking out for slightly offbeat different photos – mostly just when walking round town, and having to take photos each day and make the effort, is making…
How to get a toddler to behave and does the naughty step work?
N is usually pretty well behaved. We missed the terrible twos. Although we seem to have got a bit of the ‘threenager’ behaviour coming out now. Most of his extreme behaviour (well, anger) when it erupts is down to his…
