Keeping Babies Cool - The Do's and Don't's 

Keeping Babies Cool – The Do’s and Don’t’s 

With all this hot weather at the moment and more to come over the summer keeping babies cool is a high priority. Unlike us grown ups babies cannot regulate their tempreture so knowing how to keep babies cool is an essential.  There is a horrible saying that is quite to the point and may help you get things with heat into perspective – Cold babies cry, hot babies die.  I am no expert but here are…

Vote - Have a Voice!

Vote – Have a Voice!

The General Election 2017 is upon us and here is your chance to get your voice heard. Your opinion does matter, it does count, and you can make a difference!  The number of people that did not vote in the 2010 General Election outweighed the number of winning votes, a huge 15.9 million people didn’t make their voice heard! Can you imagine what a difference it could have made if they had voted. If…

For the Love of Books - Bedtime Beginnings

For the Love of Books – Bedtime Beginnings

We love a bedtime book and read or tell a story every night before bed. Stories are part of our bedtime routine and this helps Little Bebe get off to sleep each evening.  Babies are never too young for books and I have read to Little Bebe from day one. Books do not need to be overly long but also they do not need to be short or have limited words. For a short books we look at the pictures in…

Make Do and Mend – Bibs

I try to be the demostic goddess but fail miserable normally. Occasionally though I peak a little in the right direction, occasionally I achieve something off my to do list – I make do and mend! Make do and mend is something I like to try to do wherever possible, we waste so much money and create so much waste with our throw away attitudes. Businesses are making the most of this and creating…

I have watched her:  ♡ Shuffle for her first feed and it hurt, ♡ Spent the first night just laying watching her sleep,  ♡ Bath for the first time thankfully she loved it, ♡ Cuddled lots and lots and lots,  ♡ Hold…

Food Glorious Food - Slow Cooked Pork Shoulder Joint

Food Glorious Food – Slow Cooked Pork Shoulder Joint

I love tender slow cooker pork and this is the first meal husband decreed as nice (and he is a fussy so and so). Slow cooking pork is so simple to do and it always ends up a delicious melt in the mouth meal. This is a recipe I use for either a midweek special or for a late Sunday dinner.  This recipe started from looking up pork recipes and not having the ingrediants listed so I took the rough…
