Christmas Gift Guide - Family Board Game (7+)
Item gifted for review purposes.
Welcome back to my Christmas Gift Guide.
The latest gift idea is the kind of gift I got regularly as a child but we don't seem to give all that often these days. As people try and breakaway from tech and have family time though, board games are making a comeback!
Googly Eyes is for those aged 7+ and is for 4 or more players, making it a great game for family time.

After a busy summer and with Joseph now at school it seem ages since we've had a day out! So, with Daddy off over half term we made use of our time together and had a trip to Cadbury World in Bournville, Birmingham!

Charity Spotlight - World Cord Blood Day
Collaborative Post
On the run up to Christmas people often begin to think about good and charitable causes and November is a month full of awareness days and weeks. With this in mind I've decided to pick one close to my heart and bring back my old Charity Spotlight feature.
Writing about World Cord Blood Day takes me back five years! Back to when I was expecting out little boy! Wow, I can't believe it was that long ago?!

Christmas Gift Guide - A Gift For Babies & Toddlers!
Item gifted for review purposes.
Welcome back to my Christmas gift guide!!
This gift is one for the babies and toddlers in your lives!
Little ones can usually be easy to buy for and toys will probably be your go to but what if you want something a little different? Maybe the parents plead with you for no more toys and something educational as an alternative.
This is where Babel Babies comes in. A great alternative to a toy, their Sing Languages Together CD, brings multilingual music and stories together to learn, sing and play.

Lapland Mailroom
Item gifted for review purposes.
Christmas is a magical time for children and I love little touches that can add to the experience for our little boy.
Elf doors, magic keys and snowy footprints all make an appearance at our house. With our four year old, Joseph, a little older this year and understanding Christmas a lot more I also wanted to add a letter from Santa.
So, when I was contacted by Santa's elves over at Lapland Mailroom I was super excited!
Heading over to their website to place my order, I was impressed by what I found.

Goodbye October
When I wrote Goodbye September I mentioned how busy it had been but looking back I feel like October was in the wings, chuckling away to itself thinking you've seen nothing yet!

It's OK To Say No!
Collaborative Post
In the past I've shared my fertility and health troubles, and I've recently shared a guest post about Fibromyalgia too. Many of you have contacted me and said it's helped to explain to your family and friends how you feel and why some days are harder than others.
With this in mind I wanted to share another post before the Christmas rush, hustle and bustle start. I feel this is an important one and it's for everyone, not just those of us with chronic pain, Fibro etc.
Whether you work full-time, part-time, are a stay at home parent, a full time carer, step parent or child free, this is important.
As we take a step nearer to Christmas and the craziness that surrounds it I say this..........it's OK to say no.
