Starting today we’re running a competition with Pick Me Up Magazine online to give four lucky hectic mums (and dads) the chance to win £50 to spend at Get The Label – perfect for kick starting your winter wardrobe.

(I’ve just treated myself to this Bench jacket to help keep the winters chills at bay when I’m out and about!)

Crossed fingers for you!

Free food, great!

Yummy pizza!

I noticed a post on British Mummy Bloggers a couple of weeks ago by Sandy Calico about a free lunch/meet up at Pizza Express, which naturally caught my eye! They are pushing the new Leggera pizza, which has a big whole in the middle which is filled with salad - making it only 500 calories, which is certainly attractive. Almost as attractive as the word ‘free’.

So I shall soon hopefully be meeting Sandy, Lindy at Chronicles of Squidyboo, Sally at Who’s the Mummy and Yummy Mammy at Secret Diaries of a Wannabe Yummy Mammy. It should be a fun meet up! And free food always goes down a treat!

Happy Roald Dahl Day!

Yes Sunday 13th will be a day of nostalgia where we can look back and celebrate the genius of my favourite children’s author, Roald Dahl.

Now is the time to get the kids down to the library to stock up on boredom buster books. And while you’re there you could pick up a couple for yourself - Dahl’s The Witches still gives me the chills. Not to mention the film, that gave me nightmares for weeks!

Hectic Mum’s You Tube faves!

August 28, 2009 By: Liz McNamara Category: Fashion, Fun, Shopping

Bit of a hectic week this week for me, we’re doing the x-mas shoot for getthelabel.com, x-mas I know!

So I thought I’d give writing a rest and just post a few of my favourite You Tube vids to hopefully give you a giggle. Feel free to send me a link to yours :)

Charlie bit my finger - an golden oldey but this still makes me laugh.

Best baby laugh!

Give me a lollypop! This video is from Mugglesam and it’s a great channel, so many cute videos.

Not kid related but I just had to put in on here…singer Katy Perry + cake = disaster!

Also to put a smile on your face - we’ve got some great new clothes and shoes on Get The Label at the moment for mums, dads and kids, from £6.99.
