And the dish ran away with the spoon...
Whilst I was at my sister's for Easter she got out her Bunnykins cup from when she was little for LT to use and it got me thinking about children's crockery.
I want to get LT something that he can use every day but also treasure in years to come. I think he is old enough now to have a special porcelain set.
But, oh my god there is a lot of tat out there. Lots of pink for girls, blue for boys, Disney princess', slapdash illustrations and just plain boring.
Until I found Djeco do a range - available from tickety boo in the UK
These are my favourites.
Chicken Wings Collection



Gingerbread Collection



I toyed with the idea of classic sets like the kind of thing I had when I was a kid but they just don't compare with the bright colours and fun illustrations from Djeco.

Wear Colour
Now the sun has come out and everyone is feeling spring like at last, I am feeling totally uninspired fashion wise.
I have fallen into a rut. Being pregnant nothing fits. All I want to do is wear bright pretty dresses but all I can wear it my black jersey skirt from Topshop and an assortment of loose print tops that I got when I was pregnant with LT.
I so begrudge paying out what little money I have on clothes I am only going to wear for the next few months but oh, I am bored.
I stumbled across this brilliant site Wear Colour, so inspiring.
I think I am going to turn my bedroom upside down today and find something/anything tucked away that has been hidden and will fit- I am sure there is something- there has to be! I may even get the sewing machine out, desperate times call for desperate measures!

Body Warmers and Watering Cans
We went to my sisters over Easter and she has a cute little garden- a luxury that we just don't have up on the 5th floor!
LT spent the whole time dragging anyone he could out into the cold to play with the watering can.
He kept wrapped up warm in his Easter bunny ears hat my sister go him last year from etsy and his Tootsa cardi and body warmer.
I love the way the body warmer and watering can colour co-ordinate- so beautifully accessorised!
My mum thought he looked like a little gnome.
