I’ll admit to being a fan of Ellen (who isn’t, right?!!). I was watching her Mothers Day Special online and Nick Cannon was a guest (Mariah Carey’s other half and the father of Roc & Roe – ummm.. sorry, can you repeat that?!!)
Anyway, he and Ellen were seen at the end of the show giving away a 4 Moms Origami Stroller.

The Origami is the world’s first and only power-folding stroller: at the touch of a button, it folds and unfolds itself! It has built-in generators for self-charging and can even charge your mobile phone.
What an amazing concept. Now if they could just figure out a way to make it self load into the boot of the car….
We would love to see these in Australia soon!!
Have a great day

Recently I was on a flight to Albury with my 9 month old daughter. An advantage of this is getting to board first!! I was sitting there and could see a young 20 something approach with a look of “please don’t let that be my seat”. I’m sure you’ve all seen and/or given that look at some stage. He sat down and ordered a beer straight away (must have thought he would need it…) Anyway, she was a great little flyer so he needn’t have had anything to worry about BUT what do you do when your little ones aren’t good at flying, are sick, bored or just want to run around and get under the seats?
Here is a great article on Family Friendly Airlines. Gulf Air even have a sky nanny service.

We would love to hear any tips that you might have for travelling with children.
Take care

Mothers – what would we do without them?
They hold our hands and our hearts, wipe away our tears, love us unconditionally and are always there to offer a big hug when it’s needed.
Sunday marks their special day!! Why not show them how much they are loved and appreciated with some of these lovely ideas.

Does this line sound familiar “Back when I was a child”?
If you would like your parents to write down what “life” was like back when they were a child then I have just found the book for you.
It’s a memories book that has been designed in the UK and it includes everything from food that was served to household chores.
What a great gift for a grandparent to pass on.

How great is walking into a room that just jumps out at you because of its fabulous walls.
Wallpaper has made a comeback over the last couple of years and it’s not hard to see why.
Whether it’s an awesome feature wall or all four walls have been covered, you can make such a strong impact like these images below.

I recently had a conversation with a friend about selecting a babysitter – what’s a fair price, what time should you be home and how do you select the right person?
I found this article which you might find helpful.

V Neck Tees – I’m loving this look with the layered gold necklaces and bracelets.
Candles – What a simple and effective idea. A handful of leaves and a ribbon have really transformed this plain white candle.
Tuxedos – Is there anything more handsome than a man in a tux? Especially when that man is George Clooney.
Table Arrangment - Aren’t these citrus jars fantastic! I’m going to give this a go on the weekend and put them on my wooden outdoor setting.

Is it just me or is there something magical about tree houses?
I’m sure at some stage you dreamed of having one and they seem to bring out the child in all of us.
A place to call your own, where all elaborate plans were hatched with friends that had the secret code to enter.
Tom Cruise reportedly spent $100k on Suri’s tree house but (if like the majority of us), you don’t have that sort of money, here are some more modest ideas!
