A blog by a witchy book lover that loves to rant about politics and diet culture
My baby boy is nine months old already. Time is absolutely flying by and his 8 to 9 month of life has brought plenty of changes. He now has his first two teeth and his top two are just there moving down about to break through. We can see them pretty clearly but they haven't cut through the gum yet. We have had our first holiday as a family of four where Felix enjoyed ice cream, the sand, the sea, bubbles and swimming. He was constantly crawling and cruising around the caravan ... Read more
A couple of months ago we purchased a new pushchair for Felix. We originally had a travel system which was great for the birth - six months bassinet type pram but when we flipped it to parent facing Felix looked uncomfortable, the straps were at odd angles and the soft cover foot muff didn't really stay in place. Getting him in and out for the school runs was becoming an absolute nightmare. So I went back to Cosatto's website and selected the absolutely beautiful Woosh XL in the Mister ... Read more
Felix is now 8 months old. I have no idea what he weighs as I haven't taken him to the clinic. Now we have a car we may do but he is growing, he's eating well, he's moving well, he's sleeping well so I kind of feel weight shouldn't be an issue.

He's very slender though so things that fit him ... Read more
Celebrating seven months of being a mum of two and getting through my baby boy's first horrible cold and proper spell of teething. It's been a hard month. When babies get colds they take such a long time to recover. He was full of snuffles, sniffles and snot. He was teething, he was trying to crawl and it was all just a very chaotic month. I'm glad he's much better now. Speech Felix is often chatting to his toys, whilst he's playing, to us in the morning and to Evie whenever ... Read more
Probably contains spoilers so don't read on if you haven't watched or don't care. If you're one of the apparently small percentage of people that HAVE NEVER SEEN A SINGLE EPISODE OF GAME OF THRONES then this is not a post for you. From now I can assume most people have watched that episode of Game of Thrones and I've seen so many reactions to it across social media and from friends and family. As a casual viewer or fan of the show alone I completely see how epic it was and I agree, but ... Read more
