A Greek Sunday Lunch

Oliver admires and emulates his Daddy like no other (their bond is unbreakable) and hats off to Peter who is simply the most patient and loving father (his years of Tai Chi really come in handy at 3am when a teething baby is screaming). And breathe....

Review of Kelo-Cote Silicon Gel for my C-Section Scar

When I was approached three months ago to review Kelo-cote® gel on my C-section scar, six months post op, I was hesitant. A fear of the unknown and having never applied cream to my original, first C-section scar, I was unsure it was for me. However after researching the gel, I was impressed with the evidence*: it is clinically proven to smooth, soften and flatten scars, reduce redness and discolouration and relieve pain and itching. With a red, raised and angry scar after my second C-section, I decided to try out the gel.

A Magical Weekend in London

Blogging is not just my (4th) love and job, but it's also a great way to experience events, products and experiences I can share with my family. Last weekend, we were the new C4 Picasso's guests at the Harry Potter Tour in Watford, allowing me the opportunity to test drive the new Picasso before having a day absorbing all things HP!

Win my Beautiful Bouquet of Roses & Lilies from Serenata Flowers worth £54.99

So when Serenata Flowers asked if they could send me a bouquet from their online collection to review and host a competition, I typed 'yes' and 'thank you' as quickly as my fingers could, before telling my husband he'd been let off the hook from flower buying duties for the next moth at least...Aren't they pretty too!

Little Santa

Christmas in July

I was recently invited to attend the Christmas in July exhibition where I would see all the latest products available for kids and adults out for Christmas, but with my childcare (the folks) on a three week vacation, I sadly couldn't make it. It did get me thinking about Christmas though and despite the summer heatwave, before you know it, it will be here, a mere five months away!

The 10 Month Review

So at 10 months old in the UK, your baby gets reviewed by a health visitor and today was Alexander's turn to 'perform', be weighed in those funny sink shaped scales every baby hates and measured as flat as a wriggling baby could be!
