Our visit to Great Ormond Street Hospital



So today was the day our son had his appointment at Great ormond street hospital, We decided to go on the train to get to London as it would have cost more money to drive there, Our son was very excited to be going on a train and couldn't wait to get on it, Sadly the excitment didn't last long and he soon got bored, Luckly the train ride wasn't too long and we arrived in London and we headed off to the hospital. When we was there our son had an eye check one where he had to say what the pictures were on the board the lady was holding, She then had a look in his eyes and sent him off for some eye drops.

Once the eye drops worked we then went off to see another doctor who looked at our sons eyes more closely and then discussed what their plans are for our son, To put it into simple terms they have said they want to double check that his right eye is the strongest before they go ahead and removed the left eyes lense, they also want to try and centre his right pupil so that he can hopefully see through his lense in his right eye better.

We now have to wait 3 months for our next appointment but I feel happy knowing their plans for our son.

Hello baby, Brio Duck


When I think of Brio I think of the wooden train sets, Little did I know there is much more to there name, So when I was sent the Brio duck for my daughter to try out I was really excited to see what there other toys are like.
Nearly all the duck is made from wood so its a really sturdy toy which would definately last a long time, As you pull the duck along the wings flap and its head moves it even makes a quack noise, Which my daughter loves as she thinks the duck is chasing her.

Since its arrival in out house my daughter hasn't stopped playing with it, Its even got to the point that if my son takes it to play with she starts screaming until its back in her hands.
I really think its a toy thats going to be played with day after day and being made of wood I know its going to last.

The Brio Duck pull along wooden baby toy is available from Hello Baby Hello Baby.
Hello Baby also sells a wide range of other baby and nursery stuff including baby toys,Nursery furniture,Baby travel and Baby safety products they can all be found here.
