...playing with the MamaRoo

We totally fell for the MamaRoo while watching Gadget Man one evening.

Tested out by my favourite actor Richard Ayoade and my old mate Denise Van Outen ;) how could i not believe them when they gave it a big thumbs up?

Yup I'm so susceptible to celebrity endorsement, (case 2 in kind my Pendleton bike) a hazard of the job...

We decided to set it up early so that Badger could get used to the noise and movement of it.

This turned out to be a wise move as he was not a fan to start with and barked his chops off at it. Wouldn't be ideal and soothing for the baby! Now he isn't bothered by it.

I hope the baby is more enamoured with it or I'll be having words with Richard and Denise...

...testing out the Bugaboo

After lots of research, we bought a Bugaboo Cameleon3  from the Baby Discount Centre in Bournemouth and here it is!

I had my heart set on an orange hood (my favourite colour!) so we had to wait for it to arrive as they only had a tangerine one in stock. But as the baby wasn't due just yet I kept my legs crossed and hoped for the best.

Very glad that we both waited ;) I am under no illusions that this purchase is more for me than the baby as the pram is so light and easy to fold down and manoeuvre.

Sam had fun putting the pram together using the dutch instructions, it was pretty easy to do. However we were a little confused by this instruction, any ideas??

I'll update you on how i get on once there is a baby to put in it...
