Pushchairs...

What is is about us women that makes us want to constantly update our pushchair..whether it be upgrading to the newest model or exploring a different brand? 

 

I'm no different from the rest in 2 and a half years I've owned 8!!!

 1 Mamas&Papas plico pramette

 1 Luna mix

 1 Maclaren XLR

 1 ICandy pear

 2 Cossatto supa lites

 1 Maclaren twin triumph &

 1 Quinny Moodd

But apart from the Moodd (I was lucky enough to be given the Moodd as part of a project run by Quinny) I haven't loved my pushchairs and always looked for something new much to my Fiancé's hate! He doesn't get it!!!

 

I honestly do think someone needs to start a help group for buggy addicts as I'm sure this is some sort of syndrome!  

But right now I'm on a mission to find my next fix...and I know exactly what I want ...Bugaboo here I come!!

Clingy child/separation anxiety!?!

It started quite recently....

  Mya who's now 3 months short of turning 3...wants to be picked up all the time...I'm not sure if she's worried she's missing out or maybe fells like she's going to be left behind but it's getting a bit silly now...even if I'm cooking/washing/getting ready to go out...to be honest there isn't a time she doesn't ask to be picked up!! 

  But I don't know why...I've tried reassuring her and even telling her to hold my hand instead but it doesn't seem to be helping!! The thing is she's fine when I drop her at nursery...waves me off without a hint of concern!! So i just have no idea why she does it at home!

    If anyone out there has similar experiences of this..please let me know if you found out the reason and how it resolved??

Boot sale madness....

I don't know if i was being nuts but I decided it was time to do a boot sale...and take the kids with me! Well not quite me alone..my mum and sister were part of the expedition too!!

 Mya as I thought kept needing the loo...and as she's not using her pushchair anymore and wanted to walk around a lot ( or should I say be carried!!)

 Lucky enough they both fell asleep...one in my arms and the other in his pushchair...

2 hours of car boot madness later they both woke up full of energy...

 Luckily I took their play tent(which was in the boot!!) and a bunch of toy animals to keep then entertained even though both of them were more interested in watching the dogs people had walking around!

Time passed quick enough and we'd survived...my only dilemma was that the car broke down on the way home...but other than that we'd had a great day shame the sun didn't show its face!! 

Peppa pigs taking over my child

I don't know of its me but I'm sure Peppa Pig does some sort of brainwashing to children....

 I have found myself watching Peppa and she does have a bit of an attitude!! I've now found that so does my daughter!!! She copies what she says and often repeats lines she's heard on an episode! 

 Now she's nearly 3 and I expect a little bits of cheekiness but I'd like Peppa to move out so I can have my daughter back! Lol 

 I'm sure it's only a phase...so from now we'll be watching countdown and Dickinson's real deals!!!

Anyone else notice their children becoming their favourite tv character???
