Use 6 by Christmas



Hi Guys

I know some of you may be cringing at the title because I have mentioned that dreaded C word. I am sorry about that but there is a reason for that and let me explain that one to you. I have decided that I know I get a number of new beauty products as gifts however I still have loads and I need to use some up before they go bad. For around a year now I have been aware of the panning community on Youtube and it is something I have always said that I was going to do however until now I have never but now seems the right time for me, So I have careful selected 6 items out of my collection that I want to use up by Christmas. I hopefully will be doing monthly updates on these products,

Jess's First Birthday Haul



Hi Guys

I thought today I would share with you what Jess got for her 1st birthday, I will add the disclaimer now I am not bragging about what she received I am making this post for a number of reasons on is the fact that I found it hard to get inspiration what to purchase a girl for her first birthday. Another reason is due to the fact that I know these posts are popular which means that people must actually like to read them and the final reason is due to the fact it is something that Jess will be able to look back to in the future and see what she received.

Jess's 1st Birthday

Hi Guys

I thought to day I would share with you what we did for Jess's first birthday due to the fact that I know it can be hard to know what to do for you little ones first birthday because they don't remember so you don't want to spend to much money but then you do not want it to go past unmarked.

The weekend before Jess's actual birthday we went to see Daddy's family so they could celebrate her birthday with her which was nice for them to be able to see her. The day started with them giving her cards and some presents which we let her open early so they felt part of her birthday celebration. Them we went for a nice walk by the canal to go to the a pub for a lunch however they were only serving Sunday lunch when we got there and we did not fancy it so we walked back and then we had tea when we got back .

Jess at One Year



Dear Jess

I can't believe that I have had the pleasure of been your mummy for one whole year now how lucky am I. I don't know were that year has gone it doesn't seem long since you was no bigger than Daddy's forearm and now his forearm only goes up to your waist so you have nearly doubled in size since you have been born, I am so glad I have all these picture to look back on and enjoy the memories we have from the first year of your life. I am sure they are going to be something that you will enjoy looking back on too as well when you are a bigger girl.

What To Take To University



Hi Guys

This post was seen on my old blog last year however this is something which I still see as relvant and thought it may be of some us to you. So today I am going to share what you need to take to uni in general so that you do not forget anything these are some thing which people may forgot due to them not been on the lists. Let;s face it your room becomes your home away from home you spend a lot of time in it studying,sleeping and just generally chilling. There is nothing worse than the white walls and horrid carpets.  So anything you can do to make it feel more like home you are going to do it trust me.

How To Handle Freshers



Hi Guys 

Today I have decided that I am going to share with my tips on how to handle freshers I shared this post on my old blog last year but I know that it is still relevant. I know it is the time of year when all students head back to uni or start for the very first time which can seem a daunting experience. I was a fresher three  years ago now so have done 2 freshers weeks. I will be going to a new university this week to finish the final two years of my degree after having Jess. Actual as you read this post it will be freshers for me but with a twist when you commute an hour and have a nearly one year old in tow it is going to be completely different but hey.

Kidloland - Educational App Review + Giveaway



Hi Guys

Today I am going to share an app with you which helps your child learn. Jess has always been amazed by technology such as remote controls,laptops, mobile phones and Ipads I put this down to the fact that she see other people using them all the time. So when I was contacted by the lovely people at Kidloland to review there app I jumped at the chance.

Kidloland is an app which is available on IOS or Andriod depending which devices you have it is aimed at the under 5's to help them learn. Jess has started talking a little bit well you can understand her she says Da Da and hello and occasionally Ma Ma. I thought that now may be a good time to introduce her to colours, shapes, alphabet and also songs as this is something which she will learn when she goes to nursery I would imagine.

August Baby Girl Clothing Haul



Hi Guys

I know that this month the post is slightly later than it usually would be but this is due to the fact of how busy I have been. This reflects in the size of this haul due to the fact that I have not been in a lot of shops which I have found really nice things in for Jess and also the fact that I have not been browsing online. Instagram is one of the worst places for me because I always find new places on there which I want to try and end up purchasing way to much for Jess.
