Brand & Blog
Ok, so I’m not quite at the puberty stage with the boys, but it will happen one day. Am I prepared for that? Personally, I’m sure I’ll be fine giving the #TeenTalk. I come from quite an open family and have always been able to talk to my mum about anything.
I’d hope that my boys would be comfortable talking to me about things that may be a little embarrassing as they grow up. But understandably some things are difficult to discuss with parents. Even more so with girls.
A brand I’ve been using for a long time now is OXO tot. They’ve kindly allowed me to try out their products with both Lamb and Bear and we really do love their stuff.
Our current review with them is of products perfect for snacking on the go. We’ve been sent their Flip Top Snack Cup and their Flippy Snack Cup.
Last year was one of my most successful blogging years to date. You may remember I was a finalist for Best Family Blog in the Britmums Brilliance In Blogging Awards and I was up against some amazing blogs. I knew I wouldn’t win, but the fact I was nominated, then shortlisted, then a finalist was so overwhelming and something I’m incredibly proud of.
Well, nominations are open for this year, and I’d love your vote!
I wasn’t sure whether to write this post. I know a lot of bloggers see it as begging, but in my opinion if I don’t inform my readers about the awards, how will they know about them??
Even if you don’t vote for me, to some bloggers the awards are recognition of their hard work, so giving them a nomination is like giving them a pat on the back. And we all deserve one of those every now and then don’t we!
Although I haven’t been as active on my blog this year, I have been active on social media and trying to keep you all updated on there. We all know my little cub is a handful and has been on the move from a very young age. Oh, and we all remember he didn’t nap properly until he was about 8 months old right?
I’ve done my best to keep up with all of the responsibilities I’ve taken on. I hope you’re all still enjoying reading my blog and following our updates. Even after a rough patch with a particular follower who said something incredibly vile to me (she was reported to the police and this is why I now suffer with anxiety), I’m still passionate about what I do, albeit a little more wary.
I never in a million years expected to be a finalist last year, I truly mean that, so who knows, maybe I can actually go on to win this year?!

When I was pregnant with Bear I was kindly sent a selection of products from Love Boo. I’ve had samples of their products before in goodies bags, but I’ve never tried more than that.
What I have tried was lovely so I was more than happy to review some of their range.
I was asked to choose a section from their site and was a little overwhelmed by the choice! They have such a wide range of products suitable for both mother and baby.
Today we have a guest post from the lovely Ami over at Through Ami’s Eyes. As a fellow ‘Essex girl’ I love finding out new places we can take the kids and a couple on this list are new to us!
Over to Ami…
Pickle loves being our and about and some of my favourite days spent with him have been when we have been outdoors enjoying the fresh air and the sunshine. There is so much to do in Essex where we live and I wanted to share with you my 5 favoutire places to go with my toddler in Essex.
