This day I love.......

Whenever we get ready to go out the girls always ask when can baby wear shoes?  They want him to be like them.  Babies feet are soft and delicate and I am reluctant to put a pair of shoes on him, that was until we found Dotty fish.

Dotty fish specialise in soft leather shoes for babies and toddlers.  There is a wide variety of designs to choose from, something for everyone's tastes.  The sole of the shoes are a non slip suede, so as baby begins to crawl and walk he will have grip on our wooden floors.


The shoes are really soft to the touch and very flexible, making them perfect for little feet.  They look a little big as they are size 0-6 months and he is still very tiny at 6 weeks old.  Even though he has lots of growing room they still stayed on his feet and did not come off.  This also meant his socks also stayed on his feet!



The Dotty fish shoes are also excellent quality, however they have a really affordable price tag starting at £7.49.  They would make the perfect baby gift.

The girls are now really happy that baby can also put his shoes on when we go out!

If the secret to a good nights sleep is a great pair of Pyjamas then Hatleys Pyjama range is sure to promise a good night sleep.  We have a tradition in our house that every Christmas eve the girls get a new pair of PJ to wear.  They go to sleep on Christmas eve in their new PJ, all excited and ready for Christmas the next morning.  Christmas would not be Christmas without spending most of it in your PJ!

Hatley offer a gorgeous range of Pyjamas.  Matching for the whole family or just something to suit even the fusiest of tastes!  Ones with bright colourful patterns and others more simple.  There is something for everyone.  Their whole range is made from super soft cotton which is perfect for my eldest who suffers with ezcema.

I ordered a pair for my daughter for her Christmas PJ, she has not yet seen them as they are her surprise for Christmas eve.  I however cannot wait to show her.  They are incredibly soft with just enough stretch that they will give a snug but comfortable feel to them.  The colours are bold, which is just what I wanted and they are the perfect Christmas PJ.


My eldest is going to look amazing in them, now all I need to do is select a pair for my youngest!  Thank you Hartley for sending them for my eldest.

The NICI miniclara is part of the Wonderland range from NICI.  She is 30cm tall and incredibly soft and cuddly.  I was really impressed by the quality of miniclara.  Well finished stitching, super soft material and no apparent 'bits' that could fall off causing a potential hazard.

Miniclara makes for excellent cuddles

Both girls love cuddling her.  Miniclara has extra clothes which means you can dress her up.  This is great fun for the girls and helps to aid their imagination.  It is also very good for hand eye coordination.  The clothes are made from the same super soft material and are easy to fasten with the aid of Velcro.

The clothes feature some beautiful stitching making them unique and much more beautiful than some doll clothes I have seen in the past.  

MiniClara also has a rather lovely pet cat, which sits in her bag.  The girls loved the cat too, with my youngest running around cuddling the cat shouting 'Look Kitty cat'.

NICI miniclara would make a perfect present and would be a much loved addition to any child.  She is recommended from the ages of 2+.  My youngest who is 2 loves NICI Wonderland Mini Clara Doll and so does my 3 year old.

My daughters eyes lit up when she saw the cuddledry pink dotty cuddlebugs.  The lovely pink and white spots really appealed to her.  We therefore had to have a shower straight away.  The cuddledry cuddlebug is super soft made with bamboo fibre and cotton its not only silky soft but also 60 % more absorbents than pure cotton.  It also has a natural antibacterial quality.
 
The cuddlebug has a lovely cosy hood.  This is not only great for keeping my daughter warm after a bath but it is great at drying her hair.  I love the little ears on the cuddlebug.

My eldest daughter is 3 and the cuddlebug is recommended for walking age to 3 years.  There is however still plenty of fabric to wrap her up in and keep her warm.  She looks very warm and snuggly in her towel.  The cuddlebug features a double layer.  This means its one of the warmest toddler towel.

My daughter loves her cuddlebug.  The first thing she does when she gets out of the shower/bath is to wrap up in the cuddlebug and crawl on the floor.  She likes to pretend she is a lady bird.  The cuddlebug has really captured her imagination too.
 
She feels very cuddly in her cuddlebug, I can tell the difference in softness between this and other towels.  A very beautiful snuggly toddler towel from cuddledry.

My daughter often asks me when we are getting ready to go out, why we don't put shoes on her sister. She seems rather confused that everyone else wears shoes except baby. I tell her its because she cant walk but the real reason is that I worry about shoes on such soft delicate feet. I have struggled to find anything with soft soles that allow for growth and flexibility and that allow her feet to breathe.

When I heard about Bobux shoes I was eager to try them. Bobux shoes are recognised by the American Podiatric Medical Association as contributing to better foot health for children. Their philosophy is that 'barefoot is best', something I also believe. So when I was kindly sent a pair of pink flower Bobux shoes to review, I was excited to find out if they could live up to their claims that they are designed to mimic the comfort and healthy benefits of barefoot freedom. I was not disappointed.

The shoes I received are part of their Soft soles [baby] range and they are so very soft. They have a non-slip suede sole and thanks to the elasticated ankle goes on just like socks but stay in place even with the most wriggly of baby which mine is. The shoe itself is made from a soft, breathable leather, which you can smell when you open the box. Everything about the shoe suggests comfort and have clearly been designed with babies in mind, even having the image design on the shoe face baby so the images are not upside down to them.

Bobux shoes are available to purchase here: www.bobux.co.uk and are also available in Step Up [first walker shoes] and i-Walk [ pre school].
