The Perfect Baby Shower Gift From A Brand I Trust

The Perfect Baby Shower Gift From A Brand I Trust

The first baby shower I’d ever experienced was my very own! I’m not sure if they’re a new thing over recent years or if I just didn’t know any new mummies! Either way, not only was it incredibly emotional and an absolutely amazing way of celebrating this life-changing event, but it meant those closest to me really spoilt me and the new baby with things I didn’t even know I needed. Plus, the things I didn’t know that I DIDN’T need! Every single gift I got at my baby shower meant the world to me and of course, being a…

Casdon Supermarket Till Review

Casdon Supermarket Till Review

If anyone leaves the room at the moment Cameo says they’ve gone to the shop. He is adamant that everything has come from the shop if it comes into the house and that if anyone leaves they are going to the shop. I know it’s because his Grandad has been taking him to the local supermarket lately and has let him pull the trolley around and pay the lady at the checkout. So you can imagine his excitement when he woke up from his nap today to find a complete little toy supermarket till from Casdon all set up and…

Ninja Foodi Recipe – Teriyaki Chicken & Coconut Rice

Ninja Foodi Recipe – Teriyaki Chicken & Coconut Rice

What is the Ninja Foodi? To cut a long story short, the Ninja Foodi is a kitchen ‘do-it-all’. It’s a pressure cooker, slow cooker, and steamer with the ability to crisp everything nicely thanks to its Tendercrisp Technology. That means it can bake, grill, roast and broil. You can pressure cook something and still get a crisp top. Amazing!   The one thing that really works for me is that the Ninja Foodi acts as a one-pot wonder. You can cook meat, grains and veggies all at the same time. Not only is it time-saving but also it’s just so…

Casdon Toy Dyson Cord-free Vacuum Cleaner Review

Casdon Toy Dyson Cord-free Vacuum Cleaner Review

They say that children copy what their parents/elders do. So I’m chuffed that Cameo loves to sweep, hoover and clean up. I feel like we never do enough of it, so I guess it feels like we must do if he has picked up on it. So our house can’t be that messy after all! He is definitely at the stage where he wants to copy everything we do. One of the funniest is hovering. We bought him a little hoover from a charity shop last year, unfortunately, it didn’t work but he still loved moving it around. So you…

My Plus Size Pregnancy – Our Conception Story

My Plus Size Pregnancy – Our Conception Story

So it’s about time I start answering some of your questions about being plus size and pregnant. This is the first of many posts that I plan to write and I hope it answers some of your questions. I’ll always start by saying that every single woman is different. We don’t have full control over what our bodies do and no matter what you are an amazing human. So this post is about how we conceived, my thoughts, feelings and opinions. As you probably know, I’m plus size and have been most of my life. I’m in the morbidly obese…
