Food & Lifestyle


New Year's Day was my daughter Melis' 4th birthday so we decided to go into Central London for the day. So we got to the train station and boarded the train and as you can imagine Melis was very excited about our train ride to London.

This year I decided to book the kids to see Santa at our local garden centre, Ruxley Manor. This will be Melis' fourth Christmas and Luca's second, although he was only 10 days old for his first Christmas, this year the excitement coming from my 3 nearly 4 year old has had me in the happiest of Christmas spirits and can't wait to see their faces on Christmas day!


Weaning is one of my favourite stages, I loved it with both my babies as I love cooking up great healthy food for my whole family. This time I thought I would dedicate a post to our weaning journey so far with baby number two and it has been brilliant. I decided to do what I did with my daughter and do both Baby Led Weaning and Spoon Feeding and both have been very successful.


Teething!! Oh how different it has been the second time around. With my first you would mention teething and I would ask "What is that?" We was lucky with our daughter, teething was never an issue, all her teeth came through with no problem at all. We used a bit of Bonjela Teething gel and lots of things to pop in her mouth and before we knew it all her teeth were through and that was it!

Baby's skin can be so sensitive not just in the first few weeks but as they grow different factors can affect their precious little skin. My 3 year old was 6 days late and she has since suffered from very dry skin that is very irritated and can cause blemishes. We tried many things and prescription products but nothing seemed to keep it at bay. My little boy doesn't suffer from dry skin on his body but does have slight eczema on his face.


I can't believe how quickly my baby boy is growing, Luca is nearly 5 months old and already growing out of so many of his clothes so we went shopping..any excuse. 
Wow! I can not believe that my last post was in September! Finding the time to sit and write became quite hard hence why I have been MIA for the past 4 months. The last time I posted I was six months pregnant with my second baby and had posted a few posts on how hard and poorly I had been feeling during my pregnancy. Well, it didn't get better for unfortunately.

Let's please talk about Coconut oil! Oh my gad! I can't imagine my life without this stuff! What I love about coconut oil is the benefits and the number of different ways you can use it so what better excuse to write about what I love using it for.




It is a difficult subject to talk about but it shouldn't be one that is avoided. Every pregnancy is different in every woman which can make it difficult to understand different symptoms especially servere morning sickness. This can make a woman feel very lonely, poorly and very emotional and it's important for close friends and family to understand that it doesn't always just go away after the first 12 weeks. I am 17 weeks and still being sick and feeling nauseas all day.

I never did this the first time round so this time I have decided to write about my pregnancy. I want to share my experience as I'm also finding that second time around I am struggling with "Morning Sickness", back pains and rhinitis.


Hiya lovelies, my daughter and I decided to go on a girly shopping trip this morning and as Boots now have their Baby Event on where everything is 3 for 2 I thought what better excuse than to treat my baby girl to some new clothes.
