I am currently seven weeks in to parenting three. I forgot so much about babies in the two year gap between G and Baby J. It could have been self preservation-no wants to remember the deliciousness of functioning on 40 minutes sleep a night. There have been moments though where I have laughed to myself…
I’m sure you’ve heard of wet and dry food for pets. Dogs and cats especially. I wonder of you have heard the same for children? Maybe you do it yourselves and are unaware you are doing it. Wet food is basically anything which makes a mess. The type they may eat in an evening, right…
My little prince G turned two at the end of January. The transition from a baby at one to a little boy at two has been amazing to witness. This time last year, he was crawling at an alarming rate and, whilst he was in the verge of walking, it hadn’t quite happened. Well he…
Last week, a friend on my personal Facebook asked how to get medicine in babies and toddlers. I sympathised. I know how hard it can. Little did I know that within days, I would be thinking the exact same thing. Boo has always been brilliant at taking medicine which I am thankful for. It seems her…

Since our last Smartrike update, we are walking properly now. I say walking but as with most toddlers, it is more of a run. Who knew such little legs could build up such a speed? Being more mobile obviously brings with it a whole new set of problems-especially on a farm. There are just so…
Just this week, a friend of mine mentioned a play date she had organised for her child and her friend’s child and it lasted seven hours. SEVEN HOURS! The lady arrived at 10am and didn’t leave until 5pm. It’s like a whole days work and probably three days when you think she must have had…
