A Birthday Tea Party

Last week my daughter Sophia turned two and we had a soft play party for her. However, as her Birthday was on the bank holiday Monday we held her party the day before as I really did not want to face soft play on a bank holiday. On her actual birthday, we wanted to do something nice to celebrate her special day so we went out for a meal with family at lunch time and then we had a little tea party at home in the evening. 

Sophia is Doc Mcstuffins mad and we had decided that we were going to have a Doc Mcstuffins theme to her birthday, we had Doc invites and birthday cards and balloon for her already. So when we were offered the chance to try out some party products from Party Bags And Supplies I was pleased to see that they stocked Doc Mcstuffin party products and knew I had to get them to complete her birthday. 

Party bags and supplies is a UK based online party shop selling a huge range of children, adult and celebration party products. There really is so much choice on the website from Baby's first birthdays to the latest children characters. There really is everything you could need for any celebration and a design to suit everyone.

Pikku The Best Children's Hair Salon In Newcastle

Last week I took Sophia aged two to get her hair cut at Pikku in Gosforth near Newcastle, I can not wait to tell you all about it as it was amazing and somewhere I know every child will love. As a mum of three, I have been to many children hair salons over the years and Pikku is without a doubt the best one we have been to and I honestly think it is the best one in the Newcastle area.

Pikku is situated on Gosforth high street opposite the Brandling Arms right in the heart of the high street, it is just a few minutes drive from Newcastle city centre. Many of the buses to and from Newcastle pass through here and stop close to the salon, it is also just a short walk from regent centre metro and there are two car parks located very close by.

Haberman 360 Junior Beaker Review & Giveaway

My toddler Sophia is almost two and as she gets closer to her second birthday we have noticed a huge change in her, she is becoming so independent and is trying to copy everything we do. One of the things she likes to do is try and drink out of big cup like we do, but of course, she is still so young and has not grasped how to do so without spilling juice everywhere. She has sippy cups but I think she is getting a bit too big for these, so when I heard of the Haberman 360 junior beaker I was intrigued as I had never seen anything like this before.

I'm Going To Britmums Live 2015

Last June I saw Twitter go crazy with talk of Britmums Live a two-day blogging event in London and I wanted to go. I never went last year as I was very new to blogging and had no idea these kind of events even existed,  I was also heavily pregnant with baby number three. I vowed to go this year and I actually brought my ticket when they went on sale last year and my hotel has been booked for weeks.

 But if you follow me on social media you will know I have been having huge doubts about going as I have never attended anything like this before and I am very nervous. And also because I have never left my little two before and my baby is only nine months old. I have been thinking of selling my ticket and just not going, but after talking to some lovely ladies on Twitter today who I have arranged to meet before the event I have changed my mind and decided to be brave and go, as I know I will regret it big time if I don't go. So here is my I'm going to Britmums post and if you see me then please do come say hello as I will be the nervous Geordie girl.

Wicked Uncle Online Toy Shop Review

Being a mum of three children I love shopping for gifts for them for birthdays and Christmas, but when it comes to shopping for friends or relatives children I don't have a clue what to buy them. So when I heard of Wicked Uncle online toy shop I was pleased to see that this was an online toy shop that would make this task a lot easier.

The website is really easy to navigate and is broken down into sections by age and gender, making it so simple to select a gift for whoever you are buying for. You just click on the age and gender of the child you are buying for and a selection of toys will show up to suit a range of different budgets. There is a good range of toys available to suit any child and budget and you can even choose to have your item gift wrapped for you and sent directly to the person you brought it for, perfect for sending to a child you may not see often. It makes present buying so stress-free.

Chemist Direct : Review

As a mum of three, with two of my children being very young shopping, can be a bit of a nightmare, I avoid it as best I can these days and prefer to do most of my shopping online. Clothes, groceries, Christmas and birthday presents are all ordered online from the comfort of my own home, online shopping really is a godsend to us mums. 

So when I heard of Chemist Direct I thought oh what a brilliant idea, as it is as the name suggests an online chemist. You can order your prescriptions online and medicines if you are unwell and unable to get out of the house. You can also order everyday toiletries, beauty products, baby products and they even have a holiday and pet section. The products stocked are all well-known brands and a lot of the products available are cheaper then they are in the shops. Perfect for people unable to get out to the local chemist or for people who are just too busy to go shopping.
