Pretty Petal Perfume

Bob has wanted to make perfume since she saw the Peppa Pig episode where Peppa & George make perfume. Luckily it was the flower perfume that she was interested in and not the ‘Eau de Muddy Puddles’. It is the wrong time of year to find beautiful blooms out and about and I would also feel guilty about plucking the petals from a rose that was still growing. Over a week ago my friend bought me some beautiful flowers. As [click here to read on]

The Potty Diaries - Days 22,23 & 24

Dear Zoo

Bob loves her books! Since she was tiny she has sat with a book on her knee pretending to read. Now she is older she likes certain books and we read them so many times that she remembers what they are about. Here she is ‘reading’ Dear Zoo. It is not as fancy as some of my other videos but it is a moment that I do not want to forget.
