Dad confusion
There’s been serious ‘dad confusion’ going on this week with N. We’ve all gone through the bad cold & cough lurgy that seems to be going round. N suffered a temperature at the end of last week, but apart from…

Toddlerisms no.3: Chill
Another toddlerism, this time it’s ‘chill’. After meals N likes to chill with his dad. This usually involves clambering all over him while he’s trying to rest, sitting on his chest/head/arm, or simply cuddling up with his taggy blanket and…
Potty progress
There’s a distinct ‘toilet’ theme over my last few blog posts about N. We’ll go with it though. Previously N’s used the potties in the bathrooms to put his toys on or in. He’ll occasionally sit on one before having…
Meal Planning Monday: 11th February 2013
It’s the start of the week again. I think the meal planning’s going really well. Much better on the food waste, and easier for planning preparation throughout the day. Not really seeming to get much cheaper when actually shopping, but…
Party trick – tongue twister
My son is strange. Or rather his tongue is strange. He has a party trick already, at the age of 2! He’s just started sticking his tongue out (not brilliant), but I’m intrigued. He can make it into a (rounded)…

Maybe I’m strange, and I’m the only one who does this. Not sure I should be admitting it, but I compare N’s size and shape to other children we meet. I like numbers so I suppose it was always natural…
5 ways to minimise driving costs
I’ve been researching buying a car (lots of fun test driving!), and have to make a decision soon, so the guest post today is great timing. If you want to save a few pennies, and let’s face it we all…
Toddlerisms no. 2: the importance of chairs
N views chairs as an important tool in his daily activities. He’s now got really particular in where he sits at the table. Breakfast he sits at one end where his dad usually sits for lunch. Lunch he’ll sit in…
Review and offer: BassBoomz
After review the BassBuds a while back, I’ve been sent some BassBoomz to review. N loves to listen to music and dance (although is currently into rocking to AC/DC thanks to his dad’s influence), so the BassBoomz are great to…
