School trip

Image
This week we had yet another school trip, to Bristol Zoo.  One of us had to go with out little Eggman, just to ensure everything will be ok.  I was rather anxious about the whole thing, what if he won’t listen, what if he won’t like animals and many other scenarios played in my head.  But...  I need not worry. He loved it. Yes we did wonder off occasionally to find more fun stuff like these rocking cars. Does everyone hates them as much as me?! He just had a little play and then just got off and run with me to find the rest of the class.  Gorillas were fantastic, we got there at the feeding time and it was great! There even was a baby gorilla attached to it’s mother’s back.  Penguins diving and sea horses were a great hit with my son too.  The bus journey there and back of course was loud but I have a whole new found appreciation for the teachers. They are doing such an amazing job!  And now we are planning our trip to the Zoo as a family!  ...

Rave. Baby rave

Image
Did you know that baby rave is a thing? Well we have finally made it to event by Big Fish Little Fish Event .  I knew what is happening, actual DJs, glitter cannons, bar, balloons, sensory madness and costumes.  What I didn’t know is how my kid will react to this...   This is us playing with silk parachute thingy to Jacksons 5!  And here is Egg with some modelling balloons.  It was odd. He straight away decided it was fun. And he shall expore, that involved me running after him with his shoes in my hands. Coz you know he was in.  I really need to work on teaching him not to take his shoes off in public places. I think it might be difficult since he has been doing this for a while. The balloons, the bubbles, other kids, glitter cannons and especially the parachute thing was his favourite. We danced under it, help to wiggle it. They do this in school so he knew what and how. And at some point while still on my shoulders he started enjoy...

School germs

My baby boy started the school. Well preschool.  He isn’t very sure of it. But I love my few hours of freedom.  Don’t get me wrong I love him so much, I didn’t think this kind of love was possible. But being on maternity for so long I begin to resent all this motherhood stuff a bit. So yes I am free for couple of hours while he is in school.  I am free to catch up on housework in peace. I am free to finish my tea without anyone climbing on me... you get the gist. But with all new kids and experience come new germs.  And they hit us hard.  First it was Egg. I even had to keep him at home, he had temperature and had to lay down to have a cough. Calpol helped with initial symptoms but we had to have antibiotics. And day three he was ready to take them as long as it was followed by the milk.  Then it was the husband. He managed to sleep on the sofa a lot in the afternoons and actually feels better. But he really wasn’t 1st few days...  And I have it last. ...

Boxes!!

Image
You might already know that I love the monthly subscription boxes. However I have cancelled my much loved Little Box . It was sad but had to be done, my drawers are full of stuff I don't have time to use. Or even energy. Being a Mombie (it's a real thing!) last thing I want to deal with make up and such. But husband pointed out these little things make me happy so I though I give something else a go... And here we are  Sassy Bloom box.  Fun idea, box of goodies for your little one depending on how old they are getting and such. It's nice. They also offer great introductory discounts, check out their Twitter and Facebook pages. But I think I found it is a bit strange like some one else picking up stuff for your preciouse little one and it is a bit too much money for my liking.  Don't get me wrong they send great stuff, but I needed up with more stacking cups... But grown up cup will be super useful and I always use the bowls from Munchkin. The cutlery ...

Home

I went to see Home... The trailer for it looked ever so cute. Dancing alien, dancing purple alien!!! I didn't really pay much attention to the trailer to be perfectly honest and did not know much about the film. I was pleased that they didn't put every funny moment into the trailer. However it took me forever to pinpoint the voices...  Jim Parsons is fab and most people knows him as Sheldon Cooper. I love The Big Bang, even Milky Boy has a Bazzinga onesie. However his O character seems rather like Sheldon Cooper... but alien! I understand that the alien is written this way, but in a way seems that Mr Parsons been cast for his fame is Sheldon! But saying that I know that kids never seen BBT would enjoy Home!  Watching the movie all I could think of is why is there so much Rhianna songs... Then it hit me. Oh she is doing the voice for Tip. Don't know what the writer of this firm smoked to name his leading character Gratuity!!!  Yeah, I don't care for Rhian...
