When I hear the words travelling with a toddler I must admit that my heart rate escalates and I start to feel panicky. However, I refuse to stay inside for the duration of Lucy’s toddlerhood and believe that exposing her to the situations that are normal to our family will teach her how to respond to those events. This post is about what worked for us getting away and back, and adjusting to a holiday routine. Read the rest of this entry

Sweet Potato, Pumpkin and Zucchini Frittata

Antenatal Hydrotherapy
I was tap dancing up until I was 16 weeks pregnant, and then it was the Christmas holidays. For ten weeks I did nothing, searching for the right kind of activity to do.

The best bibs ever!
I have found that the best bibs ever are from Cotton On Kids. They are quite pricey, $9.95 each or two for $15, but they are thick and absorbent, have cute designs, and fit nicely around the neck with a press stud. I wouldn’t bother with any other cotton/thinner bibs. *On sale until 26th September 2011 – these bibs are only $6.97 each!
