Pram, what pram?

Before having Poppy, I never noticed prams.  Now, I find myself looking twice at every pram that rolls by – I have even become adept at recognising various brands (Phil & Ted’s, Bugaboo’s and Mountain Buggies) from afar.  I think my husband even notices prams now too! Another surprise I have noticed is the little smile

Feed…mmm

Synonymous with sleeping…is feeding.  One part of the conversation doesn’t exist without the other!   Once again, before Poppy was born I naively thought breastfeeding was just a given, a natural, instinctive behaviour.  Luckily, I have been able to feed Poppy well, but initially it wasn’t without its hurdles.  It took us both a little

Sleep….zzzz

Since having Poppy in April, I have found that one of the most common conversation topics is none other than SLEEP!  There are numerous books written about the topic, websites, old wives tales and expert advice at every turn.   I must admit, before having Poppy I was terrified about the lack of sleep a newborn

As Poppy’s Grandmother B, is currently in Paris I thought I would share this site:  Paper City of Paris by “Made By Joel”.  You can download the templates and build your very own city.  I can’t wait to share this with Poppy…the paper city, and the real one in the future!!

This morning we took Kali (my niece) and her friend, Erin out on the boat for breakfast.  Poppy was pretty chilled out and just lounged around all morning!  Ah the life of a 4 1/2 month old.

The sketchbook is combined with intensive fashion information and blended figure templates. It is the perfect tool for brainstorming, fast sketching and quick referencing”.   I would love to have a little play around with some of those

A Sparkling Heart

Poppy is wearing her new t-shirt today!  She is being quite grizzly too, and I have realised that I can’t just pop her on the floor or in her bouncer, whilst I potter away. She is requiring more stimulation now and gets bored quite quickly!  However, she was quite intrigued whilst she watch me make

Poke that tongue out Poppy!  In the past couple of days, Poppy has become obsessed with poking her tongue out whilst making this cute noise.  Her expressions are so varied, I just hope these photos capture her ever changing ‘communication’!
