360° Junior Anywayup beaker | Review & giveaway (CLOSED)

J didn’t start using a beaker properly until he was around 18 months old – at three years old he has only just started using a cup regularly. Now, N wants to be exactly like his big brother and was always stealing his beaker so we got him his own, though he did take a while to get the hang of it but he pretty much always has one now. Now J uses a cup, of course N wants to be the same. That’s where the 360° Junior beaker from Anywayup comes in handy. At only 14 months old I wasn’t sure …

Slimming World weigh in #20 – the one where I got it again…

After my second shock loss in a row last week it gave me a kick up the rear end to get back on plan as much as possible – ideally, totally back on plan. We were attending a Christening do on Sunday but I had decided that I was going to have my lunch beforehand so I wouldn’t be tempted by all the buffet food, but that didn’t work and I eventually caved and tucked in – including the awesome candy cart!

Little man J at 3 years 2 months old

It seems like forever since I shared J’s last update; maybe because that one was pretty much on time and this one is a bit late! I feel like I shouldn’t be calling him a toddler any more as he feels so grown up now. Though he does begin school next year so I guess I should maybe call him a pre-schooler instead? He has been going to nursery now for over a year though we have been paying for that so it’s only been one half day a week, but now he’s three he has started receiving his 3 …

Slimming World weigh in #19 – the repeat of last week…

So somehow last week I managed to walk away from group with a half pound loss, I still don’t know how I managed it. Anyway, I came away with a fresh head and although I was already back on track I decided that as we had plans I was going to try and be as good as possible. On Wednesday we went to Nottingham to see Ben & Holly Live! and got back quite late, so we just grabbed a KFC and I was a bit of a piglet as hot wings are my absolute favourite… I thought to myself well it’s only …
