So, as it was with J’s last update, it’s been a while since I last posted one for N too – which was his 1 year 3 month old one so a couple of months ago now. Since then he has really transformed into a proper little toddler and forever left babyhood behind! Though J still calls him his little baby N, bless him 🙂 He’s slowly growing out of his bed time milk too; he often doesn’t finish the bottle and instead just fights sleep, he’s just like his big brother in that respect. He loves his milk on his cereal …

Carrot cake mini loaves | Recipe #GBBOBloggers2015
As we aren’t a free from family I had to get my thinking cap on about what to bake this week, but in the end I decided on good old carrot cake as I knew that was sugar free and dairy free, and obviously it can also be gluten free if you use gluten free flour.
Bullied and beaten
I’ve been thinking about sharing my experience of bullying for a long time but have just never gotten around to it.

Though on a positive spin, I have got myself out of the mindset that “Oh well, I’ve had this <insert naughty food here> now, I may as well just carry on!”. Instead I think, no, I …
I like to squeak, how do you speak? | Book review
Both of the boys love noisy books – well they’re noisy themselves so of course they would! – though N doesn’t quite get the concept yet so just presses buttons randomly, whereas J likes to match the noisy buttons with the book now. The newest book we have reviewed though is slightly different, in that it makes a noise by itself when you lift the flap! I Like To Squeak!
