Car colour practise
As mentioned before, N’s not too hot at colours. I lie, he knows the names of the colours, and nods if I ask what colour they are. But he’s still obsessed with saying yellow to everything. Although now we have…

Meal Planning Monday: 4th March 2013
We’re here again on meal planning Monday. I have to say, after a few months of being at home and having to cook every night, it’s really hard to keep thinking of interesting meals to cook quickly – whether that…
Toddlerisms 6: Grapes
N loves fruit. I imagine most children do (especially over veg, although he does love veg too), but I think N’s slightly obsessed with it. So much so that it’s always the fruit he tried to make a grab for…
Feeding the Ducks
Yesterday we decided we would go to Stratford to feed the swans and ducks. The forecast was dry and looked quite good so I was optimistic we might get a bit of sun. Of course we went too early so…
Toddler friends
Being 2 seems to be the start of having friends. Before N’s been happy to tag around after his old cousins, and vaguely do activities at nursery alongside other children, but it’s great to see him really connecting with other…
Miserable kids
Miserable kids really aren’t what you want. Children, especially young ones, should be full of fun and laughter, excitement and interest. Thankfully N is a happy chappy and even though he occasionally has a bit of a wobble and cry…
Introduction to Gardening

Night night
As I’ve said before, N loves reading so of course before bed we have to choose a book (or 2) to read. Today we had Cock-a-Doodle Quack Quack which is a lovely book about a baby cockerel being born, but not…
Meal Planning Monday: 25th February 2013
So it’s that time again – late by a day though – where I list my meal plan for the week. It’s only Tuesday and it’s already been slightly thrown out by various things (roast pork on Sunday where there…
50 Book Challenge: February update
I feel like I’ve been reading less this month (totally blame discovering Candy Crush, and feeling more tired in the mornings so reading less then before getting up). Haven’t downloaded many new books as I’ve got a stack piling up…
Grampy melt down
N is definitely a Grampy’s boy. Ok, so he loves the rest of his family too – cousins, Gran, Grandma, aunts, uncles, but it’s always Grampy he wants to see. Now we have a melt down (or as close as…
