This year is the first year my Mister has two babies to celebrate Fathers day with. He is the most incredible Daddy to them and I feel so blessed to be able to witness the love the three of them share. It's pretty clear Noah thinks he is the coolest person in the world and Eva is already besotted by him.

Since Eva has been born I find myself feeling a sudden huge rush of emotion when I watch the bond between the three of them grow. I love the way he looks at them bursting with pride and makes them feel like they're at the centre of his universe. 

We are so lucky to be able to call him Daddy and we get to keep him for the rest of our lives. 

I want to thank him for so many things but the four I want to thank him for the most are:

*Thank you for being my true parenting partner, I wouldn't want to share this crazy journey with anyone else.
*Thank you for being the main reason I have the two cutest babies. (I know I'm biased...)
*Thank you for sharing my mummy worries with me and not make out like I'm a over protective crazy lady. 
*Thank you for continuing to be the best role model our children could ask for, if they both turn out with same out look on life as you we have done our job well. 
I hope I you all have an amazing day spending it with the ones you love the most.

Since having Noah, the amount of new products available is astounding. I loved searching through the internet reading review after review. 

I've come up with a list of items I couldn't be without, these are the first 6. 

* Graco Glider Baby Swing
This magical creation has become a god send in our house. The swing has 6 speeds, 10 melodies and 5 soothing sounds. We just pop her in turn it on and she goes right to sleep. It's insanely comfortable and looks great in my living room. Because it is so neutral I've attached some lamaze toys on for her to look at.

*Tommee Tippee Closer to Nature Advanced Comfort Baby Feeding Bottles - 4 x 260ml
Having had a baby who suffered with awful reflux we weren't taking any chances when it came to feeding. Once we decided to stop breast feeding we went straight to boots to get hold of these bottles, they are designed to stop the baby ingesting a lot of wind when feeding. So far we haven't had any issues with trapped wind.

*WaterWipes Super Value Box - 9 X 60 wipes 
Although we didn't use wipes straight away, I couldn't bare the thought of using Johnsons wipes on her after what I had read online about the brand whilst I was pregnant. So when I stumbled across these little gems in boots I was so thankful. These wipes contain 99.9% water and 0.01% fruit extract. There so gentle and don't contain harsh chemicals which most of the hughstreet wipes do. We used these up until she was 10 weeks and now use pampers sensitive.

*Tommee Tippe Milk Baby Feeding Bibs 
These bibs are amazing, they have a padded rim that sits under the neck to stop the milk from dribbling down. I can really tell the difference when I feed her without them.

*Grobag Egg Room Thermometer
I don't know if it's a women thing but I am always cold, It could be 20 degrees and I would still need a jacket. Having this little device in the children's bedroom means I can keep an eye on how hot it is in there, whether they need an extra blanket or less cover. I've found it really helpful to have something I can keep checking on especially with its easy to see colour changing facility.

* Baby bath with built in support.
When we had our son we had an ordinary baby bath and we brought a foam support from Mothercare. We got brought a new bath for our daughter and its bloody amazing. The bath comes with a built in support so you can place your baby in it and not need to worry about holding them or them sliding off the support. Eva loves to kick and splash about and I feel reassured knowing she isn't going to slide in.

Anyone know knows me or follows me on Instagram will know my love for photos, I've had my new phone since Christmas and I've already used all of the memory on photos. The only thing I struggle with is getting them printed and displaying them. I make it a resolution every new year to print and organise my photos....(still working on that one).

So when I was given the opportunity to review a Canvas from Your Image to Canvas it was perfect for me to get an updated photo of the four(!!!) of us to put up on the wall. 
The website is extremely clear and easy to use and has 7 different customising options so you can choose a canvas to perfectly suit your needs. I really like how this is in a list option so you can customise in one screen instead of having to go backwards and forwards  from page to page.

The canvas arrived really quickly and was packaged so carefully there was no chance of any damage. I chose a 20x16 size canvas with a 1 inch depth and a gallery side. The quality is excellent and one of the best I have ever received. It's made out of 100% pure cotton and is guaranteed to fade for 75 years, which is great when you want to keep it on display for many years. 
I really like how personal the experience feels and that the frames are handmade. The company seems to want you to be completely satisfied with your product and honestly I think you will be. 

I have already ordered another two canvases of my babies from a professional photo shoot they had done and I can't wait for them to be hanging on my walls. 

Check them out at http://www.yourimage2canvas.co.uk 

You can also check out their Facebook page and see up to date photos of the guys in the studio and keep on top of any offers or promotions they have going on. 

Let me know if you get a canvas printed :)

xoxo
