I've recently got back into home cooking, so I thought I'd share some of the meals we've been enjoying......

**I've been rubbish at blogging lately! I had forgotten I started to write this. So finally here it is.**

A long overdue post (Freddie was 3 in November!!) - What we got up to for Freddies 3rd birthday..……

We had a quiet day planned - it was Harrys first day back at school after half term so we couldnt all do something together.

Having annual passes to the sealife centre and not yet having used them this year yet! We decided we would head down to Weymouth to see the animals.

When we got there it wasn't open at the time stated on the website (not the best start!) and there were a few things shut off but we saw everything else and Freddie really enjoyed it. 

It was quite cold so we didn't hang around for too long.

After school we enjoyed an early tea at our local Table Table resturant, its a family favourite and we all enjoyed our meals.

In the evening we all gathered at my parents house so that Freddie could open his remaining presents, see all the family at once and most importantly......have cake!!

We continued on the celebrations the next day with Freddies godparents coming over for breakfast, we decided to make it a birthday breakfast.

I completley forogot to take a picture of the table with all our food on! the pancakes disappeared very quickly!! The table decorations we picked were Cars theme, I was really impressed with them & the little party bags.

The boys have shared a room for just over a year now & deciding to put them in the same room, worked out even better than we expected. 

Sharing a room has helped them settle into sleep so well, I think they just like the comfort that the other is just across the room.

Although for a while now my little angels have been waking and getting up earlier and earlier each week it seems!

When I was approached by The Gro Company asking me to review one of their new products I jumped at the chance and knew exactly which product I really wanted to try.

I had heard a lot and read a lot about the Gro clock, for those of you that don't know the Gro clock is a simple digital clock that with images helps your children to know when it's time to get up!

The screen shows images of the sun (at awake time) and stars (at sleep time), the stars go out one by one to help older children understand the concept of time passing and the digital clock is always displayed.

The Gro Clock has been a great product for our boys, we have had minimal early wake up calls and I love that Harry is now  really excited to tell the time, he will always comment when he goes to bed and wakes up what time the clock says.

Main Features Of The Gro Clock Include:

Display screen shows sun and stars to indicate 'sleep' and 'wake up' times

Two sleep & wake up times can be set for weekday/weekend or night time/day time naps 

Optional audible alarm

Adjustable screen brightness

Key lock option

Digital clock screen display

Silent operation 

Mains operated

The Gro clock also comes with a lovely bedtime story based around farmyard animals going to sleep.

As a Mum of two young boys I have used many Gro Company products over the years and the Gro clock is on a par with their other fantastic products.

The Gro company is definitely a company I would recommend to other Mums and Dads.

How do your kids sleep? Have you used the Gro Clock?

* This is a review post I was sent the product in return of a review & all the opinions in the post are my own.

And then from Saturday we'll be in sunny (fingers crossed) France.

We are so looking forward to relaxation and family time.
