Are Micro Scooters Really Worth The Money?

notanothermummyblog — Fri, 17 May 2013 18:40:02 +0000

Every weekend, when we visit the local park, I can’t believe how many scooters we see. They’re everywhere! Our park even has a couple of little scooter stands where kids can park their scooters while they play. When our daughter turned two, we suggested to one set of grandparents that they might want to get her [...]

Eurovision Bingo Card, Anyone?

Love it or hate it, you can’t ignore The Eurovision Song Contest. The annual kitsch-fest is taking place in the Swedish city of Malmö this year (yes! Sweden! It’s so on-trend right now!) and I’ll be tuning in, glass of wine in hand to have a giggle at the entries, listen to Graham Norton’s brilliantly [...]

Getting Some Regular Mum Me-Time

notanothermummyblog — Wed, 15 May 2013 06:15:05 +0000

Me-time is something I think about a lot. As a working mum, it’s fair to say that my train journey to work (which, by the way, I’m usually standing up for) is my only regular me-time. But it’s something that is so important – and for dads too. It gives us time to reflect and [...]

Are Nude Courts The Ultimate Mum Shoe?

notanothermummyblog — Mon, 13 May 2013 06:00:07 +0000

Cheryl Cole wears them. Kate Middleton wears them. Heck, even Caroline Flack wears them. There’s no denying nude courts have been having a moment in the last year, and I can see why. I’ve only recently jumped onto the nude court shoe bandwagon, and it’s crazy that it took me so long. They go with everything [...]

I was in a taxi today and the cabbie asked me if I was going on holiday this year. “I’ve just been, actually,” I replied, before launching into a full review of Martinhal Beach Resort in Portugal. “It’s a brilliant place to go with kids,” I finished up. “Oh, right,” he said. I realised I [...]

Turning Our Nursery Into A Proper Kids’ Bedroom

notanothermummyblog — Mon, 06 May 2013 16:55:50 +0000

My daughter is two and a half, and for a while now, I’ve been thinking about revamping her bedroom. It’s surprising how quickly the baby nursery that we spent so long planning and kitting out has become too young for her. Her cot was transformed into a “big girl’s bed” last year, the changing unit [...]

Three Toys My Toddler Would LOVE

notanothermummyblog — Fri, 03 May 2013 07:00:13 +0000

1. 1000 Stickers from Djeco Originally spotted on Bambino Goodies, my sticker-obsessed daughter would have kittens over this book of 1000 stickers. There are animals, characters, dress up knights and pirates, flowers, numbers, letters, balloons, cars and all, apparently great quality so easy to stick, peel off and stick again. Perfect for long journeys. 2. [...]

What Does Your Favourite Peppa Pig Character Say About You?

notanothermummyblog — Wed, 01 May 2013 07:00:54 +0000

Oh, you haven’t heard of Peppa Pig? You must either be a) not a parent b) dead. If I was a contestant on Mastermind (which would never happen, I know, but let’s go with it for now) I’d wipe the floor with the other contestants with my specialist subject: The Many Jobs Of Miss Rabbit, 2005-2009. From the [...]

Victoria Beckham On Being A Working Mum

notanothermummyblog — Sun, 28 Apr 2013 19:50:28 +0000

Victoria Beckham spoke at the Vogue Festival in London today, and I was in the audience. She spoke at length about her fashion business, her inspirations and her future plans, but it was hearing her talk about being a working mum that really got me listening. When you hear of female celebrities talk about how [...]

Twitter Friendships And What They Mean To Me

notanothermummyblog — Sat, 27 Apr 2013 22:06:40 +0000

I recently offended a colleague by referring to her as a “Twitter friend”. You see, we first made contact with each other on Twitter (around a year ago, I tweeted her to tell her I’d just discovered her blog and loved it) and she has recently started working in the same office as me. I [...]
