N’s 2 year check was an interesting experience. Not at all like I expected. We were sent a questionnaire to complete beforehand on development things he can or can’t yet do (wonder how many people lie or just don’t bother…
Now N’s two, it’s time for him to move up a room at nursery from Ducklings to Ducks (love their terminology!). He’s been doing his settling in the last couple of days and it’s gone really well. I think he…
My little man is now 2. Just in the last couple of weeks he’s come on so much. He’s now 88cm tall, weighs 2 stone and has size 6 feet. In the last 2 weeks he’s been putting together words…
It’s N’s birthday tomorrow, so the last couple of days I’ve been sorting bits out. With the snow, the plans to meet up with friends at soft play isn’t going to happen so we’ll be postponing that. He’ll also have…
Pre-children, I think a lot of people probably think having kids is going to equate to mess. I suppose to a certain extent that’s correct once they’ve got paraphenalia, toys, books, clothes etc, there’s a certain amount of storage needed…
I have to add the obligatory snow post, given it’s caused a lot of hassle and cancelled events as per usual. We had snow falling from about 3pm yesterday to about 4pm today, so a fair lot. Although it looks…
As I’ve said before, N does like his sleep, and generally sticks to his regular routine. Recently though, he’s started pulling blankets, pillows, cushions (and trying to pull off duvets) onto the floor and lying down as though he was…
People always say that babies like plugs and hence the whole babyproofing thing. We didn’t really do baby proofing (apart from a ‘lock’ on the bleach & cleaning cupboard) as N was going to have to learn where he could…
It’s almost time for N’s 2 year check with the health visitor at the surgery. It does amaze me that they think it’s a normal environment to check a child’s development in, but I guess we’ll see how it goes…
I’ve vaguely spotted the Meal planning Monday link ups on twitter, but hadn’t seen any blog posts themselves, but as this year since being off work I’ve found I’ve been planning the weekly meals, I’ve decided I should join in…
Book number 3 of my 50 book challenge was The Invisible Ones by Stef Penney; it was one that I’d probably not usually have chosen. It’s not the usual modern fast moving crime/mystery book I read a lot of, but…
