Item of the day: Despicable Me unicorn from Moonpig

Not gonna lie, one of my favourite things about Despicable Me isn't those freakin' awesome minions but the pink unicorn Gru wins Agnes at the fair. And you can buy your very own from Moonpig - for £15. Or get a backpack version instead(!) for £22.00. Might have mentally added the toy to my birthday… Continue reading Item of the day: Despicable Me unicorn from Moonpig

Wish list: M&S kids

We're lucky that Jenson is now in that fun clothing age range where he can wear both baby and boys clothes. Baby clothes tend to go up to 24 months and most boys clothes start at a year old, so he can still wear the cute baby dungarees (which Luke hates but I love -… Continue reading Wish list: M&S kids

Item of the day: Bright Starts Zippity Zoo Around We Go from Smyths

I found the coolest walker on Facebook the other day and would have put it on the ol' credit card if it could have been delivered before the middle of March. At the time Smyths were offering £30.00 off but it's currently £99.99. It's actually the best. Babies soon start whizzing around in their walker,… Continue reading Item of the day: Bright Starts Zippity Zoo Around We Go from Smyths

Brilliant!… Continue reading Item of the day: Fisher Price electronic toy from Amazon

Shopping for baby toys at Argos

I've been ticking off the essentials on the baby shopping list but completely forgotten about toys for as he gets older!

Registering for the baby shower

I debated whether or not to register for a while because on the one hand it seems rude to say to people "hey, come to a party for me and my unborn baby and bring presents. We need all this stuff!" but on the other hand, people have already shown that buying baby things is… Continue reading Registering for the baby shower

Favourite nursery range: Olive & Henri from Toys R Us

The issue with kitting out the nursery now is that it seems like the money could be better spent elsewhere, seeing as he won't be sleeping in there until he's six months old. On the other hand, I want the room sorted out beforehand so that his clothes and toys, etc, can be stored away… Continue reading Favourite nursery range: Olive & Henri from Toys R Us
