We love the library in our house. Noah especially loves being able to go every fortnight and pick 10 new books to read at bedtime. He's drawn to Biff and Chip books as he loves that he can read them by himself, I always try and take his attention to stories we can read together.  We picked up I Love You Little Monster by Giles Andreaea and we both completely fell in love with it. 
The book is about a father who is taking his little boy to bed. He tells him all about his pride, joy, hopes and dreams for his little monster whilst he thinks he's asleep. 
I cried when I read this to Noah for the first time as I wasn't expecting it to be such a beautiful story. It captures all the things we say to our children and if we don't say, we feel inside. 

The story is a perfect length for a bedtime story, it's bright and enticing to keep them engrossed throughout the whole story.

I've already ordered a copy for us to be able to read any time and would highly recommend to any other parent with a child of any age.

This past weekend Jay and I visited Venice. It was the most incredible dream like place I have ever visited. We spent hours exploring the back streets of San Marco and San Polo, spotting all of the beautiful little homes and stumbling across some breath taking architecture. It was so peaceful walking around, the locals were so friendly and the pace of life there was so calm. The turquoise water that filled the canals was exquisite. 
Let's just say I would return in a heartbeat.

My daughter Eva is definitely well into the teething stage, although we are still awaiting the arrival of a tooth we've been taking action to help soothe her gums. Armed with teething powders and a box of teethers I thought I would share with you my favourites.

I offer them to her at different times so she doesn't get bored. Her favourite is definitely Sophie la Girafe, the shape and texture is perfect for chewing and playing with, the added squeak makes her laugh every time. Her second favourite is the Nuby Bug-A-Loop this one is really bright and has lots of different textures, you can pop it into the freezer and it stays cold for a really long time. Thirdly is the Aquafresh Milk Teeth Teething ring, this one has lots of different textures on so she can move it around in her hands and when she pops it back into her mouth she's chewing on another surface. Lastly is the Lamaze Teethimal, this one doubles as a rattle. She tends to shake this one a bit more than chew but it's good for when she wants to chomp down onto it.

I would recommend getting a few teethers for your little one as they teeth for a long time, it's an investment in the long run. They're great to pop in your changing bag and easy to whip out anywhere. 

I'm always on the look out for new teethers for her to try and tend to pick something up every week. 

What are your little ones favourite teether toys?
