Even more cute than their name

I love little kids shoes, even ones for the littlest of people that don’t even need shoes.  They are just so tiny and super cute!  And you need something the keep their little socks on their feet, don’t you? If you’re in the market for some new little people shoes (for your own little person [...]

Unless it’s a huge bargain, I’m not going

Today, Target started their huge toy sale.  You know the one where a few things are on super good special and everything else is just a little bit discounted, with the upside for some is you can lay-by, with no deposit until Christmas Eve?  Yeah, one of those types of huge sales. Anyway, I needed [...]

Grocery shopping makes us poor, but well fed.

This afternoon Owen and I braved the shops to do a whole lot of grocery shopping.  One of those have-to-stock-up-on-everything-but-the-kitchen-sink type shops.  One of those shops where you hope your child behaves even for half of the shopping excursion so you can at least think you have accomplished something after spending $354.34.  I’m not kidding [...]

Look what the courier brought me!

This is the smallest order size – supposed to be for two people for approximately a fortnight… With the few things we have left over from my last lot of fruit and vege shopping we nearly will last that long too.  Although for the next fortnight, I would definitely order the family box, just to [...]

Gee I love shopping online :)

The following is the confirmation email I received tonight for the fruit and vegetable order I placed yesterday afternoon with Flemington Direct. It’s nice to get an email that so obviously would be an automatically generated email, but it still made me smile :o) I hope the produce is a good as the email.  Will [...]

Mummy Cards

How many times have you never had a pen and paper handy when arranging play dates, appointments etc?  Or you could be like me, and can never ever remember your doctor’s number, and no matter how many times I’ve dialed Marc’s or Mum’s mobile numbers I still can’t remember them to pass on when needed.  Yeah I [...]

Things…

I’m taking KJ’s idea and running walking strolling with it… This is my first new favourite thing - Flexible Tubtrugs.  As you can see, they are very handy.  I’m using a couple of them for toys and laundry at the moment, but I need to expand the tubtrugs family and get a few larger ones for Owen’s [...]

Since when did shopping become another chore?

When you have a long list of things to get and get done, and a toddler who loves the shops, but not for a long enough stint to get everything done that’s on The List.  Luckily my Mum didn’t have anything planned today so Owen and I picked her up (to help amuse Owen and [...]

New Toy

I got a new mobile on the weekend.  Why did I need a new one?  Well, there’s a story here you see… A few weeks ago I threw a pair of 3/4 pants in a bucket of Napisan, not realising that I had left my trusty W810i in one of the many zippered pockets… 20 [...]

How much can you spend on beautiful stationery?

Well, if money wasn’t an issue, I would be shopping here. :)
