I love black and white photos! I thought that I would use them more often on my blog but I find that many photos look better in colour. For this week’s Fun Photo Fun I decided to take photographs that would look good in black and white. I even dressed Bob in grey so that I wouldn’t be tempted to leave the photos in colour. I am quite pleased with the results. What do you think? My Fun Photo Favourite [click here to read on]
I am sorry to tell you that the night before last was a one off! If you have read my previous post you will know that Bob slept for 9 hours on Wednesday night for the first time ever! There wasn’t even a gradual build up. She went from struggling to manage 3 hours sleep to sleeping through. I knew that it was too early to get my hopes up but there was a small part of me that couldn’t [click here to read on]
Oh my goodness me!!! Bob finally fell asleep at 11 pm and guess what? She’s still asleep! It’s 7.30!!! I think I might be dreaming!!! For the last few months I have had to force Bob to nap before her lunch. If she had lunch first she would get a second wind and I would struggle to get her to nap before 3, resulting in her not going to bed until midnight.

I was quite excited about the snow when I was writing last week’s Fun Photo Fun. We had a nice amount and it was exciting to watch Bob playing in it for the first time. (We had snow last year but she was too small to fully appreciate it.) Since then it has snowed and snowed and snowed a bit more. I enjoy being out in the snow but not when it is falling. After waiting all yesterday morning for [click here to read on]
I have never mentioned this before but a few years before Bob came along, I was blessed with triplets! Charlie, Nellie and George. I am not crazy! Things will make perfect sense when you know their history! They are part of a long running joke. If you are a fan of The Shrek films you will know that, in Shrek 2, Shrek takes a potion that makes him human. As I was watching the film for the first time I [click here to read on]
Cooking with kids If you’re looking for a way to bond with the kids, why not let them join you in the kitchen for some simple cooking and baking activities? While it’s true that the kitchen contains many potential danger spots for children, cooking some basic recipes together can be both fun and educational. Here are some things to keep in mind when you’re cooking with kids. Choosing Age Appropriate Projects One of the first steps to making a cooking [click here to read on]
As today is my 1st Bloggoversary I thought that today’s Fun Photo Fun should also include some video fun too as video making has become such a big part of my blog. Yesterday we had snow and Bob and I had lots of fun playing in it. I only had my iPhone to hand and I must apologise for the wobbly bit in the middle of the video. I was trying to show Bob how to make snow angels from [click here to read on]
