I’m a bit late this week as I’ve had a lot on and only just remembered to write this post. I still weighed in on Monday though so I’m good to go with sharing my weigh in result. Last week wasn’t as bad as it could have been eating wise, but then it could have been better too. I’m still not back on track with logging my food which is the thing that’s really letting me down. I don’t think I so much ate the wrong things last week, just maybe a little too much of the good things. I …

Little man J at 2 years 6 months old
I can’t quite believe that J is now 2 and a half years old – I will have a 3 year old in less than 6 months! (And also a one year old!). He is continuing to thrive & develop so much, I’ve probably said it before but as much as he is testing, he amazes me every single day. His independence is continuing to grow and he now tries to put his shoes on and take them off. If he’s wearing velcro shoes then he can just about unfasten them, though he hasn’t mastered pulling them off yet – though …
Foodie Penpals – September reveal
This month my foodie penpals parcel came from Tracey over at It’s not easy being greedy (how great is that blog name?!).

Anyway, on with the contents for this month. Up first, the more sweet items: hazelnut & raisin dark chocolate square. I’m usually a milk chocolate …
Review – Equazen eye q chews (for children)
Omega-3 and Omega-6 fish oils are an important part of a healthy diet for both children & adults alike. Hubby & I love fish and regularly have ‘Fish Friday’ as part of our meals so I’m confident that we get a substantial amount. J on the other hand, the only type of fish he will eat is that of the finger variety, covered in bread crumbs. I know it’s not ideal, but it’s better than nothing! (I do keep trying). Due to this, when I was recently invited to try Equazen eye q chews for children I thought it would be a …
101 reasons not to go on a boating holiday
I recently posted about our annual holiday, this year to The Norfolk Broads. I mentioned that I would be writing a post about why a boating holiday is not for me. I don’t think I really need to give much introduction, so here goes (in no particular order): not having a proper shower (a trickily little thing, with not enough room to swing a mouse, let alone a cat) the toilet literally being in the shower – if you want a pee, you have to get wet feet if you also want to stay clean needing a step ladder to climb onto …
