more than one way to raise a child
Three months later, and some childcare anxiety on both sides, we wanted to update you all on our childcare situation – and why we have made the decisions we made! As a reminder – you can see the original debate here. Em chose to have […]
One of The Boy’s favourite first birthday present was the personalised ABC book we made him using Shutterfly. It was such a fun project to make and he loves looking at all of the pictures, especially of friends and family we don’t see too often. […]
You may not have realised it, but across the UK fewer and fewer children are being christened. The rate has fallen by nearly 80% since 1900 and in cities such as London fewer than 1 in 10 children are christened. This is despite almost 60% […]
What is it? Infant Shuddering Syndrome, Shudder Attacks or Shudder Syndrome is a relatively common, but little known movement disorder that can happen to babies. It has no long term affects and can be considered “normal” although as a parent whose child had it – […]
The past few weekends we have been loving the sunny weather and in particular taking The Boy out on our bikes on his snazzy new bike seat. It seems like a long time ago, but pre-kids The Boy’s Dad and I used train for triathlons and spend […]

The Boy is a complete animal lover. It’s so cute to see his face light up when he sees a puppy or a flock of birds. Having unfortunately lost our own cat to a traffic accident when The Boy was 8 weeks old, we have […]
Before The Boy could crawl I was seriously annoyed by all of the people that told me “Enjoy it because once he’s on the move it’s going to be difficult”. My precious boy found it so frustrating to be stuck in one place – I […]
The Boy is and has always been a horrible sleeper. Getting to sleep, Staying asleep, he hates it all!
Unlike Kate I am not a book person. I prefer to rely on the internet for advice and information. I mean it’s not like people lie on the internet right?! So here are the websites and / or apps I relied on to get me […]
