MamaBabyBliss raise funds for Bliss during National Baby Massage Week

You all know by now that Bliss is close to my heart, what with Operation Yummy Mummy it’s fair to say that I’m on a mission to raise as much money as possible for the charity work so hard to help babies and their families who are born too early or sick. So I was [...]

Mummy Rules

Mothers Day: 34 Weeks under Mummy Rule

All week it’s been impossible to escape the constant reminders that Mothers Day is upon us. Ever since I was a young child I have always thought of Mothering Sunday as really special and an opportunity to show my Mummy just how much I love and appreciate her.   Tomorrow is my first Mothers Day [...]

Operation Yummy Mummy: The Motivation of a Bed Ridden Amoeba

Right so I’m just over half way through my ludicrously short training schedule for the Lincoln 10K and as the voice of truth in my head predicted I’ve not been for enough runs. Despite having all the best intentions and even enjoying myself once out on a run, when it comes to the crunch at [...]

Necky offering me some encouragement

Operation Yummy Mummy

Yes I’m a lunatic but my latest efforts I fear will prove a leap of madness too far even for me. With only 19 days to go I’ve signed up for the Lincoln 10K. Before my pregnancy I had the running bug. In fact through training for the 2010 Lincoln 10K and continuing afterwards I [...]

World Book Day: What are you reading?

In case you hadn’t noticed today is World Book Day.  The stinkies came home armed with worksheets from various school activities and the obligatory £1 book tokens.  I’ve enjoyed a beautiful love affair with reading from an early age and am really pleased that the stinkies are starting to see what a great escape books can be.  [...]

Boo's swimming essentials

Splish Splash Swimming Boo

Sunday saw Boo go swimming for the first time. Both He and Me took her with the stinkies coming along to splash around like loons in the big pool. At 7 months old Boo is relatively late to the swimming game, yet due to her being early and struggling to maintain her body temperature initially [...]

Shrove Tuesday

Today has been eagerly anticipated by the stinkies and by many children (not forgetting those adults who have a sweet tooth!) and I will be first in line this evening for a pancake or five with the safe but divine topping of lemon juice and sugar. With all the attention focused on the sugary treat [...]

iPad: The World’s Most Expensive Teether

I better be quick we’re in Starbucks and Mummy’s up at the counter getting a soya / skinny Minnie / eternal youth latte thingymajig. After a few not so gentle prompts from Moi Daddy finally got the hint and realised that it was high time that he buy Mummy a present. I mean we’re talking [...]

One Born Every Minute: 10 Week Labour Pains – That’ll Be Pregnancy

The second week of Channel 4’s One Born Every Minute focuses on pain. Seeing as my labour was a rather short affair I’m not too sure I’m best qualified to comment on the subject but I’ll give it a go. A visit to the maternity assessment centre at Lincoln County Hospital enlightened me to the [...]

Boo Flu

Boo Flu: Man Flu Only Better

Duvets at the ready – it’s official Mummy and Boo have come down with the lurge. Ok so it may not be as bad as that. Yet a common cold is still enough to stop us in our tracks. Seeing Boo ill is so hard as she’s unable (knowing her though probably more like unwilling) [...]

My Three Books – Our Favourites

A Mummy Too asked the magic if a little impossible question: What are you three favourite books? The three books are divided into childhood, adulthood and parenthood. Books have always been part of my life – I’ll read the back of a bottle of shampoo just to devour a few extra words.  I’m amazingly fortunate [...]
