Ever since Ellie was first born I have loved Nuby Products. In the hospital we used the First Infant Milk Starter Kit which used Nuby teats. Since that day Ellie refused any other branded bottle and on her second day at home we had to go to Boots and buy a set of Nuby bottles… Continue reading Nuby Trendz

Story Props – Developing Storytelling
Storytelling, reading stories and acting out known stories has quickly become one of our favourite pastimes as a family since Ellie arrived. Her love for books, nursery rhymes and everything literature has brought out a passion in me I haven't had since I stopped reading a few years back. Every night Ellie asks for a… Continue reading Story Props – Developing Storytelling
Timber.Tots – 5 Advantages of Wooden Toys
For as long as I've been buying toys for Ellie I've been aware of the discussion between parents as to what is better for babies/toddlers/children wooden or plastic toys. Now I've always been on the fence I suppose because honestly, Ellie has her fair share of plastic and wooden toys. I have always tried to… Continue reading Timber.Tots – 5 Advantages of Wooden Toys
Photographs
Ever since I was a teen I've loved taking pictures, I was always hiding in my bedroom trying to find new ways to take "the best selfie" or posing in some way. Yet actually, I hate having my picture taken, I get awkward and self-conscious and always feel like a whale. I remember when Luke… Continue reading Photographs
Nursery Rhyme Play
For a while now I've been trying to figure out a way to bring Ellie's love of nursery rhymes in to her play. She sings all day long and knows so many nursery rhymes, more than I know and verses I've never even heard of. I've always been envious of those parents who have the… Continue reading Nursery Rhyme Play
Snoring!!
It's no secret that it's been difficult sleeping in our house as hubby is a loud snorer (if you follow my IG you've seen the stories 😂) and it was starting to get me down. I'm not good if I don't get a decent few hours sleep! Ellie would come in not long after we'd… Continue reading Snoring!!
Stickerscape – GIFTED
I have been toying with the idea of updating Ellie's room a bit, we decorated it to be used as a nursery but actually never used it as a nursery. I remember choosing a lovely yellow paint so that we wouldn't have to repaint as Ellie got older but I have found her room just… Continue reading Stickerscape – GIFTED

The Golden Key (gifted)
It is no secret that I LOVE books, specifically children's books. I haven't sat down and read an adult book in years, which bothers me terribly at times but I just find reading with Ellie brings me more joy than if I was reading on my own. Her love of stories is far bigger than… Continue reading The Golden Key (gifted)
First Rhyme Mom Review (GIFTED)
I was recently approached by an author (Leanne) to review her debut book. Leanne has written what can only be described as a poetic view on the realities of being a mother. She has taken the good and the bad and written about it in a way that I could definitely relate to. First Rhyme… Continue reading First Rhyme Mom Review (GIFTED)
