* Post contains PR sample One of my top recommendations for a newborn is a good bouncy chair. You might feel like you want to hold them and squish them 24/7 (and honestly, I really do too) but you’ll be so glad for a safe, comfy space for them that is calming and a place

How We Play: Washing the muddy animals
This Christmas Violet received a Tuff Spot Tray, so this is the first post in a new series on the blog called ‘How we Play’ – all about messy and sensory play for little ones. I thought it would be a fun idea to document our journey and the activities we do using the tuff

Violet & Pearl – Siblings January 2019
It’s been an exciting month for the Siblings as they experienced their first Christmas together! I’m sure that they are too young to really understand what was going on, but I feel like having extra family time together and a whole load of new and exciting toys really brought them together in ways I’d not

Pearl’s First Christmas
Last year I learned that planning a family Christmas for one baby was magical, even though Violet didn’t have a clue what was going on. This year I learned planning Christmas for TWO babies, one with a head-to-toe viral rash and tonsillitis…. is CHAOS. Christmas this year was most certainly low-key but it was Pearl’s

Violet & Pearl – Siblings December 2018
It was totally intentional that we chose to give Violet and Pearl a small age gap. Even though we knew having two-under-two would be incredibly hard work, but we wanted to have siblings that would be close in age so that one day we hope they’ll be not only sisters but best friends too. I’m

Life is Peachy: Self care, Waffles and my biggest parenting challenge yet!
I know, it’s been a LONG TIME since I wrote a ‘what we’ve been up to’ style post but I miss them! It’s so easy to get wrapped up in reviews, baby updates and now my blog is my full time job, my sponsored work too. After all, I started this blog to be my
