St Paul’s Cathedral London

| October 31, 2012

We visited St Paul’s Cathedral in London this week and enjoyed the late autumn sun and crisp weather.

St Paul’s Cathedral

The new One New Change shopping mall on Cheapside has a great selection of shops and is open every day of the week. It’s an open shopping mall and we found the cool wind refreshing as we went from shop to shop. The mall faces out to St Paul’s Cathedral.

Holiday Memories from France

| October 20, 2012

Winter’s approaching so I’ve found some photos to share with plenty of sunshine. Just looking back over these photographs evokes happy memories of sunny days.

In May this year we spent a week’s holiday in Brittany, France. It’s one of our favourite holiday destinations.

What do I love about Brittany? The slower pace of life, the friendly people, the stunning scenery, the local markets, French wine and the focus that’s placed on the importance of family.

Here are some of the amazing memories we have of Brittany’s beautiful environment and the fun we had together as a family.

Baby Reins

| August 14, 2012

Baby reins are an essential buy when your baby is learning to walk, helping your baby feel secure and preventing falls. And once your baby is walking, baby reins allow your baby to roam freely yet you still retain control of how far they can go.

On the recommendation of a friend I purchased the Clippasafe Walking Harness and Reins as soon as Imogen started to stand.

These reins can be used short for helping your baby gain control when learning to walk. If your baby stumbles you can safely use the reins to stop them falling forwards.

The harness sits at the back below your baby’s shoulder blades, perfect for gently keeping them upright. This has been very useful on numerous occasions with Imogen!

Now Imogen is walking confidently the Clippasafe Walking Harness and Reins are a must when out and about in busy shopping malls, if we’re near water or close to roads. The reins keep Imogen close yet give her the freedom to explore and decide which direction she wishes to walk.

I highly recommend Clippasafe Walking Harness and Reins which are fully adjustable to suit your baby as they grow. At just under £6 you will find these one of the best purchases you can make for the safety of your baby.

And sometimes holding onto Mummy’s trousers helps, especially when pointing!

Clippasafe Walking Harness and Reins are suitable for use when learning to walk to about 4 years. Machine washable.
