Buying a pram is the most complicated adult process you can go through that doesn’t require a solicitor. Most parents buy their prams before baby arrives. If you’ve ever ordered lunch for someone who is late you will know what a complicated decision making process that can be, when you are buying a pram you […]
Before buying a gift for a small child ask yourself this simple question: Would I like to be smashed in the face by this at 5.30 in the morning? No? Then put the stupid toy down and buy the parents a lovely bottle of wine instead. Here is a list of the worst toys in the Eeh […]
Dear The Tooth Fairy, Look love we both know what’s going on here. I know you don’t exist, you know you don’t exist yet somehow everyone’s writing you flippin’ letters. So here goes. There are a few things we need to clear up. Firstly and most importantly: WHAT IN THE NAME OF GOD’S GREEN EARTH […]

Let me get straight to the point I’m lazy, I breastfed because it was easier than faffing about with bottles, sterilizing and timing feeds. When I heard about a weaning process which involved throwing sticks of food at a baby I knew immediately this was the one for me. Surely though there must be more […]
Easter holidays mean no playgroups so I have been busy trying to entertain my children at home. To date we have made (and eaten) Easter baskets, Easter paper chains and chocolate crispy cake nesty buns.
