The Journey has begun….

My phone vibrated in my pocket. Clara had just popped to the toilet so I assumed it was a text from my mum wishing us a safe journey. Instead a message flicked up from Clara, a picture message. I really didn’t think that an airports toilet was an appropriate place to be taking pictures but [...]

It’s an Avent Event.

We were recently incredibly lucky to be invited by Philips Avent to an event they were running to talk about a new product they are launching. This was our first event we had attended and to call us both shy would be an understatement. We arrived a little bit early as we are both a [...]

Our House is our Home….

One of the most common questions we’ve been asked by friends since we announced that there was a little miracle growing inside my wife was, “When are you going to move?” . This question is guaranteed to get me reaching for my soap box as I try to justify our decision not to move just [...]

The Spice Tailor Curry Sauces by Anjum Anand – REVIEW

Spice Tailor Curry

As we recently mentioned in a previous post “Craving a Curry” Clara’s latest craving is curry. So it was perfect timing when we were contacted on twitter to review two Curry sauces by Anjum Anand. The two flavours we received were Original Tikka Masala & Keralan Coconut Curry from Anjum’s new Spice Tailor range. The [...]

Family Bucket list

Some of our early followers may know that I (K) turned 30 in March and spent the last year of my 20′s attempting to complete a Things before I’m 30 list. I didn’t quite manage to finish everything on my list before the big 30 struck as our lil bump started to take all my [...]

Having a Grown up day

Today has been one of those days where you congratulate yourself on being very productive then have a mini freak out when you realise how grown up you’ve become. We certainly felt very “married” today. The morning began with me going for a haircut at the crack of dawn whilst Clara stayed at home and [...]

Kari Me Sling – REVIEW

Both Clara and I decided as soon as we knew she was pregnant, that we wanted to try babywearing once our little one arrived. It took some convincing of Clara to invest in a fabric sling, as she was unsure if they were safe or not. After doing my research and putting my views across, [...]

Craving a Curry

The last two weeks all I’ve been craving is a curry and a Keema naan. I’ve given in to this craving just twice. Which I think is very good restraint, as anyone who has ever had pregnancy cravings know they are very hard to resist. Previous cravings have been, Cornettos, Ben & Jerry’s Phish food, [...]

New baby clothes & Booties

So the magical 30 week mark is soon approaching & everything is being stepped into overdrive. Our little monkey is a lot more active now & it’s kicks & movements are getting bigger & stronger by the day. Over the last few weeks I’ve spent countless hours watching my little one kick & rumble it’s [...]

Bed rest & Boobs

Bed Rest and Boobs

For the last 2 weeks I have been signed off work on bed rest due to sickness & a fainting spell. I’ve never fainted before & it was very scary. I immediately booked myself an emergency doctor’s appointment  as I’ve learnt during this pregnancy, that it’s always better to be safe than sorry. Thankfully my [...]
