The most loving, tear jerking, heart bursting birth stories have been shared with us this week as part of our Parentonomy linky. Thanks to all of you who have linked up your experiences so far. Every one is unique. And an interesting contrast to the birthing experiences of women in Bangladesh as told in...
Families – who’d have ‘em? – especially on a long car journey. From the kids who drive you nuts with their backseat whining, to your mother-in-law who likes nothing better than to moan, travelling with loved ones can be challenging. The secret to surviving such trips is preparation – and plenty of ideas. Read...
From the moment the hospital scan revealed my second (and resolutely final) child was another boy, I came to accept fashion wasn’t going to be a priority in our house. Not that I’m a follower myself, but at least with daughters you get to experiment with certain looks and styles as they grow. Boys...
Yet another chilling day. Like me, you must be daydreaming about lazy days on sundrenched beaches. But unless we bury our children up to their ears in sand (not recommended!), such luxury time is rare when you’ve got a young family. Last year, we came upon the perfect solution – “gramping”, also known as...
I always like to do my part for charity – if only I had the extra cash to splash around. Now I’m a stay-at-home Mum, I can’t give a portion of my wages, or cut down on my social life (because I don’t have one!) to afford to write a big cheque. But there...
Just lately hubby and I have been having that conversation which comes around on a regular basis. No, not “If you get up with the kids I’ll give you my kidney”. I say that every morning. Every very early morning. I’m referring to the unanswerable riddle of “Where is all of our money going?”...
Something came over my husband when our eldest was born (no, not sheer terror – although maybe it should have!) While he’d always been a bit handy with the camera on special occasions, he suddenly became gripped with recording every week in our little one’s life. To the point where, if he ever had...
Halterneck tops don’t flatter the top heavy If there’s one thing I’ve come to realise since being a mum, it’s that I really have to learn how to dress for my shape. Whether having babies has changed my body, or I’ve just got a little older and wiser about what does and doesn’t suit...
When it comes to our house, we have a certain look I’m not entirely happy with. Think of London during the Blitz, crossed with a home that’s just been burgled. Eclectic might be a kinder term. A mish-mash of strewn toys, kicked-off shoes and mucky fingerprints. But I am determined it will shortly be...
Shopping for my children’s future I’m great at shopping! And these days, with 3 children under 5, online shopping is the best for me. Thanks to my friend Sarah, I’ve now found a way to use my super skills to save for my children’s future. KidStart is a free shopping club which allows members...
