Pampers Unisex pants
TweetA while ago I was asked to review the new and improved Pampers pants for Joshuah and I jumped at the opportunity as we’ve had a constant challenge with finding something suitable for him from birth. Since I was 13 weeks pregnant and given the all clear by my Doctor following a miscarriage at 10 weeks, Carl and I started in investing in nappies. When this baby was due to arrive we wanted to be sorted and in true Thomas ways we searched all the nappy deals and purchased almost R4000 worth of nappies. Packing space was slim to none-existent and the nappy tower began developing much like our little…

Kids fashion, my little obsession
TweetLet me start off by acknowledging the fact that I have a problem, I have 2 guilty pleasures which take up quite a bit of my Pinterest browsing. These are makeup and kids fashion. I’m by no way a fashionista or expert, I am merely a Mommy who loves following whats in and out for kids. I also don’t always follow these or run out and buy what Harpers Bazaar says is in. I do however like looking at whats out there and drawing some inspiration with my own kids. Shopping for boys can sometimes be so hard, there is definitely not the variety available as wide for boys that…

Well raising our boys with manners, is one of the non-negotiables in our family and in our home. Simple you may say, or obvious you may think BUT it actually is VERY hard and takes WORK. We, I think, have pretty awesome boys. They behave well most of the time (the acting out is normally just in the confines of our home when only Carl and I are witness to it), they say their please’s and thank…

The Father
Tweet Growing up I always looked to my Dad as my hero, the provider, the head of our Spiritual home, the protector, my supporter. I think that this is what most little girls do, they love them through the good and the bad. We put them on a pedestal and when we look at them we think “My Daddy”. But as we grow older we see their flaws, we see their raw emotions and in my case we see them at their weakest. Slowly they move lower and lower off that pedestal. We learn things about them, we fight with them, we get angry, we blame them, we go silent,…

STOP Pinning START doing
Tweet Let me start out in saying that I’m OBSESSED with Pinterest! There, now that that’s out of the way let me get to the point. Its good to have a hobby, actually GREAT and as a Mom we very rarely find time to schedule some us time and focus on our little crafty projects (if that’s your hobby) or gym or whatever it is. So we turn to Pinterest and pin away happily and have these wonderful visions and ideas in our minds of all the lovely things we’d like to make and do. Some on our own, some involving the kids, others for our home. And as the…
