Swoon-worthy – Luxe Organic Cotton Sheets + a set for you!
The words ‘luxe’ and ‘organic cotton’ seem like a bit of a juxtaposition in general but in the case of these gorgeous sheets from Babu they are totally synonymous. Nix is still waking quite often at night, climbing into our bed and then commandeering the lion’s share of our king-sized bed. I never, ever imagined that I would wish we …

Shop Tour | Global Baby
This little blogging gig does wonders for getting me out and about and exploring different parts of Auckland – it’s also pretty deadly on the credit card as I discover more and more fabulous businesses that are doing things so right in this very competitive retail market. Our declining love affair with the bricks and mortar storefronts of old makes sense …
Daily Look | Nixon’s Room
Almost two years on I still love this wee nursery. I was laughing with some girlfriends the other night about the state of it though. What you don’t see in this image is the gnawed, beaver tracks on the cot rails – Nixon is THAT child in every possible way! It will be time for a makeover soon though, as …
Acquisitions | SAM the Sleep Trainer Clock & Nightlight
SAM the Sleep Trainer has moved into Nixon’s room courtesy of Zazu and I’m quite taken with him to be honest! He’s cute, functional and does what he’s told at bedtime – listen up kiddos lol. Nix is definitely too young at 16 months to use SAM to his full potential, but we have started closing his eyes …
Product Review | Oh stinky nappies……..Hello Munchkin!
So I have been fortunate enough to have enjoyed two fab baby showers and received {and given} many lovely gifts to many beautiful bubbas over the years, however I never considered adding a nappy disposal bin to my wish list or gifting one either. For me the convenience of a nappy bin in the nursery never outweighed the ‘yuck’ factor …
Show & Tell | Crochet Baby Blanket
This wasn’t a well planned out project, I didn’t have a pattern and I didn’t buy wool especially for it. I kind of wish I had put more thought into it considering how attached I feel to it – I worked hard on this while I was preggo with Nixie and I have just finished the border and steam blocking …
Acquisitions | Tiny Eyes Winter Collab Doll
When Dee (who is the amaze creative behind Tiny Eyes Dolls first posted the sketch of the Little Lion Boy I knew he had to be mine Nixon’s. As the auction for the collaboration dolls drew to a close I was at my Nana’s enjoying a birthday lunch. Nana has dial-up so I had to rely on my phone to …
Acquisitions | Move Your Art Wheelie Box
I spied these gorgeous wheelie boxes on Lee Ann Yare’s Facebook page when I was in hospital after having Nixon. This one matched the quilts in his nursery just too perfectly and Brooke from Move Ur Art was lovely enough to drop it off at the hospital for me! Childbirth doesn’t mean you have to take a break from shopping lol. These boxes …
