Welcome to the March Edition of Mama and Toddler Loves!
Toddler Loves
Bedding
Believe it or not but this 2 year old was without a pillow and duvet. She use to sleep in sleeping bags but as she was growing out of them, I thought, why not make the transition rather than buying bigger bags? She does love her pillow and duvet, well… she loves her duvet set more. I got this from Asda and it’s such a pretty print that it instantly caught A’s eyes and she loves putting her ‘babies’ to bed.
As for herself, she still spends most of the night not on her pillow and the duvet pushed aside, it’s a start… we’ll get there eventually!
Table and chair
As A reached the weight limit for her highchair, it was time to bid goodbye. We already had a sad looking table which I painted white and bought A a children’s chair from Ikea. She absolutely loves it, makes her feel like a grown up, gives her more independence whilst eating, if I hand over her plate to her, she goes and sits at the table to eat herself, so overall it has been a success.

Tasty app
I’m always talking about some kind of an app, aren’t I? Well, I can’t help it! A colleague at work introduced me to this app and it’s beginning to change the way I eat. Sometimes cooking can feel like a chore if I’m being honest but this app has a selection of quick and healthy meals that would change the way you approach cooking!
Mothers Day
Such a lovely day full of surprises, I was showered with gifts not only from my little girl but from everyone even those who I weren’t expecting anything from. Mother’s Day means a great deal to me and I’ve written how I feel about it on the blog, in my previous post, go and have a read and share your thoughts with me too.
We Both Love..
Organix Cheese
We were kindly sent two boxes of these ever so scrumptious snacks and they have been a bit so far. Whenever we’re out and about with A and she has to have a packed lunch, these must come along. Purely because it means she has a varied lunch as she’s getting her dairy and I don’t have to worry about the cheese going off since it’s dried cheese, still the same goodness, just a little more exciting! I must add, I do sneak a packet for myself now and then also.
Farm
We took A to our local farm the other weekend, it’s only a 10 minute walk from our home so I’m baffled why we hadn’t been there before but we had such a lovely time. It’s not really a farm ‘farm’ but it was nice to see A react to all the different animals and naming them.
Although, I was quite hesitant at first as if I’m being totally honest places like a zoo or similar don’t appeal to me and just make me sad… but I decided to just focus on A and her happiness for the time being.
Quality Time
Myself and A have enjoyed consecutive weekends spending quality time with my brother who works in Birmingham so we only get to see him on weekends and that can even be hectic but for a few weekends in March we were able to go out together, have a stroll and have lunch.
A loves her Uncle so much so it was a delight to see both of them bonding whilst I get to shop in Primark without any distractions! Haha!
