My pushchair addiction!!!

I have to confess, I'm pretty Addicted to pushchairs. I was never like this with my two sons but I guess as I know Gracie is my last I must be trying to make the most of it.

Starting from november 2010 I've had...

A bebe comfort loola up- with a lovely pink carrycot ( very rare) I paid £200 for it. I already had the loola up frame from a product test I done with Charlie.

I went on to buy the Quinny Zapp Xtra in pink emily ( in February 2011) with the matching foot muff. I loved the Xtra, so much so that I wouldn't let anyone touch it ( crazy or what? )
I ended up selling it to put the money towards my next pushchair but I wish I'd kept it.

My next buggy was a Quinny Buzz in stunning roller pink- which I customised with a bumper bar cover and a bar cover, made by sewfunkybaby ( on Facebook). I absolutely love my buzz and I won't be parting with it ever!! Lol

I've had two stokke xplory's the v1 and v2 which I loved but I ended up selling them as I found it hard to fold/ unfold.

I bought a bugaboo Cameleon next and that was such a dream to push, now I know why they are so popular.

I then went on to buy some different coloured seat units for my buzz included rebel red, rocking black and breen. I would love the pink Emily seat unit but Quinnys new pink blush is lovely.

I've got a cheap double obaby, that I use when my I go on long walks with Charlie and Gracie. It's pink and blue which is really cute.

I bought a normal Zapp for shopping, because it's light weight and folds small. I even made my sister a special edition Zapp by getting a black frame and the roller pink seat fabrics, it looks Stunning and she loves it.

I was picked to test the Quinny Yezz so now I use this for my lightweight buggy, it's lighter than the Zapp and folds down really small. I love the Yezz it's very practical and the colour is amazing.

I now ( purely for it's rareness and design) have a Quinny Zapp in henrik vibskov. It's a real head turner and one of my favourite. Ive wanted one of these for ages but could never find one for sale. I finally got my hands on it about 2 weeks ago. The handles are real leather and so is the harness and crotch pad :)

I've now bought a pink blush Zapp Xtra seat unit to use on my henrik Zapp. ( not had chance to use it yet)

My Gracie is nearly 15 months old and I think I have a very expensive addition. I love to show her off and what better way, than to put her in really cute prams? Haha

What am I going to do when she no longer needs a pram???

I love Quinny and I really really want the moodd. Maybe if I sell all
My exciting buggies I could get one?

My Favourite thing about the Quinny Yezz today is....

The fact you can fold it and unfold it with one hand!!! This is by far one of the easiest and quickest stroller I have unfolded.

My little Gracie is so clingy and wont go to anyone else, in the past i have had to hand her to someone so i can unfold my buggy, now i don't have to. This has saved Gracie a lot of tears :)

Happy Baby = Happy Mummy.

VIDEO TO BE ADDED WHEN I HAVE FOUND MY CHARGER

The Quinny Yezz has arrived!!

The Quinny Yezz was delivered a few days before Christmas...I have been so busy so I've only just got round to updating my Blog but here goes...

I have been so excited and have waited so long for this day to come and  I was defiantly not disappointed.

As soon as i opened the box a lovely bright pink seat and Matt black frame was staring me in the face, Christmas had come early :D

The colours are amazing, so  vibrant. The Pink Hybrid goes well with the black frame.

I set the Yezz up using the instructions ( I never usually read the instructions to anything) to be honest i could have set it up with out using them. It was a good job I read them because there is one key point to setting the Yezz up and that is when you put the seat cover on you need to leave the frame partially unfolded so the clips reach. 

I took me minutes to set up, it was so easy. I practised folding and unfolding it a few times just to get the hang of it. The great thing about Quinny Yezz is you can fold/unfold it with one hand, which makes it very unique and practical. This is going to be very handy for me when i need to take public transport and is going to be a great selling point!

The Yezz was on display in my house over Christmas, everyone who came over tried it out and couldn't believe how light weight and easy it was to push. My younger brothers especially liked the skating wheels and even asked if they could borrow them Lol

Gracie loved getting in and trying it out for the first time, she was kicking about and looking really chuffed with herself. I was worried that the harness was going to be too big her ( she's a little dot, as everyone says)  but after a bit of adjusting they fitted her fine.

I have made a video, to show how to set up the Yezz but please bare with me as this was the first video i have made :)

We have took it out for a test drive and I've got to say it's by far the easy stroller to push. My son like to hold my hand so now I don't have to struggle to push my pram and hold his hand.

Me, Gracie and Love the Yezz!!

Yes, It's the stunning and very Unique Quinny Yezz.

Not to be discredited by its small and lightweight look , the Yezz is a very well built well thought out stroller. 


It's  going to be perfect for a lot of Mums and Dads out there ( the world of babies and toddlers)  and they don't even know it yet :)

Dick Whittingtons is a farm park situated in Longhope, Gloucestershire. It's pack full of fun things to do, including a huge soft play area, a wide range of farm animals, go-Carting, Tractor rides and much more.

We decided to take the kidds to the farm park today, as it's bank holiday Monday and nearly time to go back to school. We wanted a fun day out for all the family, including Baby Gracie-Mai (who by the way, loved it just as much as the Boys).

The Story of Dick Whittington

We Started our afternoon of by visiting all the farm animals.There was plenty of lovely animals to see. We all found them all very interested and loved learning about their environment.

Heres a list of farm animals we met today...

Cute micro pigs and piglets.

A massive rare yellow rabbit ( biggest we have seen)

Funny Chickens.

Fast ferrets.

Next we all (including me) had ago on the Go-Karts. It was very fun and exciting, whizzing around the track.

Dick Whittingtons has a amazing soft plat area, with lots of things to do. The kids spent a lot of time, running, bouncing and whizzing down the slides.

We Then went on a really cool tractor ride. It took us down by a big lake, where the farmer/driver fed the ducks and we even saw coi carp.

Our next adventure was the reptile room, where we met lot's of cool and wonderful reptiles.

We had a brilliant day and love every minute of it. All of the staff are really friendly. Its a pleasure to have such a great place right on our door steps ( 10 miles away)
