The Four, the Laundry, the Life…

so, by popular request, I have been voted to do some more personal blogging on here (it’s a tough job, I know, but someone had to volunteer…). So, for those who don’t know us, here’s a quick recap on who ‘we’ are… Me – 35. married since I was *just* 18 to the same man. [...]



Blog Love – Christmas baking from Who’s the Mummy

I know, I know, I’m not REALLY here – but I couldn’t resist sharing this blog post from Sally at Who’s the Mummy – it just seems a perfect final Blog love for 2009, and won’t be the same in the New Year. So go; read and enjoy. Then get thee to thy kitchen and [...]



Blog Love – Bringing Up Charlie

Okay, okay, so the Blog Love has been a bit slack the last couple of weeks… sorry, sorry, sorry. But. Not only is it our busiest time of year (Christmas IS coming, y’know) but we have been working very extremely hard on some exciting new LittleStuff stuff. Which you’ll have to be patient for, as [...]



Blog Love – Sleep is for the weak.

This weeks Blog Love goes out to ‘Sleep is for the weak‘. The post is ‘it’s hard not to want‘ and is simply a very lovely reminder of how to do a little Blessing counting. I had a long comment i wanted to add about everyone having ‘wants’ and how important they are… but I’m [...]



Blog Love – Ladybird World Mother

This weeks blog love isn’t just for a particular post – it’s for the blog in general too. I loved yesterdays post  (The Last Straw), but also the one from Friday. And the one on ‘No Sex Please‘ made me laugh out loud. And also make a Change At Bedtime. So – may I present [...]



Blog Love – Jo Beaufoix “First Day at School”

The first day of school – we’re all looking at it this time of year. Whether you have a big ole 10 yr old headed into Yr 6 (4th Year Juniors to me – will I ever stop converting?) for his very last year in primary school, strutting around being king of the playground, smiling [...]



Blog Love – Being a Mummy

It’s a funny thing, this Blog Love regular slot. Some weeks I itch to do more than one, and have a string of bookmarked possibles ready.  Some weeks I read and read and read blogs (I know, the job’s a tough one) and struggle to find one that strikes a chord. And then other weeks [...]



Blog Love – A Mothers Place is in the Wrong

This weeks’ blog love goes to ‘A Mothers Place is in the Wrong’ – purely for her macaroni Cheese recipe. this is almost identical to the one I have on a scrap of browning paper written down and sent by my mother just after my marriage in response to an SOS from me – and [...]



Slopsville – Our Baby Weaning Diary. Week Five.

This week I’d been planning on writing about all the many and varied foods Joe has tried, but then we went away for a week and I found something else to write about… On the way home, we’d planned to stop and visit some friends and this meant we had to take the M25. Yes, [...]



Blog Love – Synchronisation of us.

This weeks Blog Love is ‘Sychronisation of Us‘ – written by Laura, a Scottish  Mummy Blogger who has three small people. This post just made me smile, and also a bit wistful. Laura’s youngest has almost cracked the whole walking thing, and her post really brought back that “hooray she’s walking… oh, where did my [...]
