This day I love.......

When Baby boy was born 7 weeks ago we received some really beautiful and thoughtful gifts.  I love that our friends and family had put thought into the gifts they sent and that they wanted to send something for baby boy.  

I am very appreciative of anything anyone gives to us and feel that I should send thank you cards.  I also like to personalise these were possible and make them unique or at the very least extra special.  I came across Morse toad on my hunt for thank you gifts and liked what I saw.

Morse toad is a chocolate messaging service, yes that is correct a chocolate messaging service.  You can either select from a wide range of messages or create your own bespoke message.  Along with this you can add a photo and a personalised note.  Your order is then sent in the post and fits through the post box.


I loved this idea and armed with a discount code I set about ordering some chocolate messages.  The ordering process is really easy to do and I was pleasantly surprised at how many pre written messages were available.  There was something to suit the majority of tastes, and I have to confess to ordering for a rather fussy persons birthday present.

It was really easy to add a photo and it certainly gives it the personal touch.  Our Morse toad order arrived really quickly and was well packaged.  I loved opening up the boxes to reveal the message inside and also the addition of a photo.


As for the chocolate, well that disappeared rather quickly!  

Morse Toad has certainly got the thumbs up from us.  There is something for every occasion and we love that you can create your own personalised message too.  I wonder if anyone will use Morse Toad to announce a pregnancy or even ask someone to marry them?


Thanks to Morse Toad for providing a discount code.  All words are my own opinion and I did also use some of my own money to purchase other items.

I love to give gifts that are unique and personalised, as I personally feel they add an extra special touch.  I am currently looking for gifts to give the girls from the new baby and also gifts for Easter.  They get a lot of chocolate from family so I prefer to give them something a little different.

Create me Books allow you to create a personalised children's books for little ones (ages 2-7).  With our love for reading I knew these would be a great gift for the girls.  The first step in the ordering process is adding the childs name, followed by the gender and finally a personal message.  I love the touch of adding a personalised message, as the book can then be given for any occasion.  

The personalisation process then takes you through to character options.  You can choose not only the hair colour, but skin colour and clothes.  Again, a great idea to help add more of a personalised touch to make your child the star of the story.  If like me you create a book for each child, each book can be slightly different for each child making them feel extra special.  Once personalisation is finished you can then preview the final book.  The whole process is very quick and easy to do.

A story for a boy does vary slightly to that for a girl, but overall the story follows the same theme.  From ordering to printing and delivery takes around 10 days, which for a personalised book I find a good turn around time.  

create me books

The books are of a great quality and high print finish.  The characters in the book have a fun cartoon style to them, which appeals to the girls.  They love spotting their names throughout the book and listening to the story.  The story is the same in each of the girls book, but with the difference of names and characters.  Overall I am very happy with the books and the girls love them.

I am very pleased to be able to give away a Create me book.  This will be a code to receive a book for free.  To enter simply follow the details on the widget below, which also contains full terms and conditions.

For Christmas each year I buy the girls a book each.  We love reading in our house and this is a present that lasts them for years to come.  The girls can tell you which books they got each year for Christmas, it is something they treasure.

I See Me are the leading personalised book company in America and are now catering for the UK.  I knew when I saw them that they would make the perfect book for my daughter this Christmas.  There is a huge range available from ballet, pirates and songs.  The book I picked for my youngest however, was the Christmas book
 As I do not publish my daughters names online I have decided to use the images from the site.  However the book looks the same.

The book is a hardback book with a lovely glossy cover.  The images inside are vibrant colours with clear text.  The book can be personalised with your child photo on the inside front cover along with a personal message.  This gives it a real special touch and perfect for a gift.  When you personalise the book you can also add in extra names to appear on the pages.  

I love this touch as it makes the book even more special.  We have added her sisters name and baby, which means she will always be able to remember the year we gave it to her.
I See Me is a truly special gift to give and one which will be treasured for many years.  

Thank you to I See Me for sending a book for my daughter in exchange for this review.

I love to find unique gifts or something special.  I put a lot of thought into my gifts and hope that the recipients love them.  It is my nieces first Christmas this year and I want to get her something special and that she can treasure as she grows up. [If my Sister in law/Brother in law are reading this and don't want to spoil the surprise then stop reading here]

I came across Find me a gift:

'Find Me a Gift is a leading online retailer with over 9,000 gifts to choose from and new lines added every week. Established in June 2000, the company specialises in a wide range of gadgets, experiences, toys, novelty and personalised gifts with worldwide delivery, special offers and year round sales'

I knew that I would be in the right place to find something for a first Christmas.  I wasn't disappointed and there was a wide range to choose from.  The website is really easy to navigate and there are helpful suggestions for occasions as well as for him or for her.  Find me a gift are also a Google certified shop.   Payment can be made via Amazon payment, Paypal or credit/debit cards.

I selected the Nursery Rhyme book and added my own personalisation.  This was an easy process, by following the on screen prompts.  Orders are still being taken for Christmas delivery too, perfect if you are still in need of those last minute presents [Please check the different delivery options as not all are guaranteed Christmas delivery].

My Nursery Rhyme book arrived and it is really lovely.  I had selected the soft back book, although hard back is also available.  The book is beautifully illustrated and my niece name is hidden on some of the pages too for a really personal touch

I am really pleased with my gift for my niece.  The quality is first class and Find me a gift is certainly a site I will be using again in the future.

I received the nursery rhyme book in exchange for a review.  All words are my own personal opinion.

With Spring still rather cold, I want my girls to be cosy warm in the mornings.  Personally presented sent me a lovely white dressing gown for my youngest daughter.  The dressing gown is a soft, cosy, white fleece, and I cannot help but cuddle my daughter when she is in it as its so soft.

My youngest could easily crawl and walk in the dressing gown and the belt made it really easy to fasten.

The dressing gown has two pockets on the front and a really gorgeous hood

The dressing gown can be personalised with up to two lines of text.  The font and colour of text can also be chosen from a selection

I love the personalisation and that it is not limited to names.  This makes it perfect to be given as a gift.
