I missed my turn.....

....and here I am, writing my first ever blog entry.

I missed my turn for Monaghan yesterday and somehow found myself popping into the NBR to catch up with Maebh and the team. For those of you who don't know me, I am Lesleyann, the North Dublin nappy agent. Things have been moving fast at the NBR in recents months and as I now have two little clothy bums to change I had lost touch with all of the recent developments. So it was great to catch up with all that has been going on, and I must admit it is hard not to get excited about some of the new products, and get carried along by the vibrant atmosphere at the NBR.

My special interest these days are cloth nappies and I can admit it here that I am a bit of a cloth addict. As I said, I have two children. Evan, who will be three on 9th October (almost the same age as the shop), and our newbie Emma aged 6months. We started using cloth with Evan when he was 6weeks old and our first nappy was a mixture of the cotton babies (bumgenius) bamboo nappies and the tots bots bamboo. Both are two pieces and are worn with an outer wrap. My collection then grew to include the bumgenius onesize and All in ones. All different types of nappies but which suited our needs in different ways. So when Emma came along we thought it was only fair to add some 'pink' to our collection...and I decided to buy one organic bumgenius to try out. I bought one only and fell so in love that I had to buy a whole set. I'll be back to review it in the next few days.

Ah sure here is a pic of the two....I can't resist....

As you can see I am very much the proud mama......and not shy to admit it. I also babywear and breastfeed.....but more about that later.

So...thank you Pete for the tea yesterday....and to Aunty Mary, your directions were spot on and we eventually got to Monaghan....and to Maebh, it was great to catch up.

Keep reading in the coming days and weeks as I talk about cloth, babywearing, sling meets and breastfeeding.......all of that crunchy stuff

Kerrie's Diary Coming Soon!!

COMING NEXT WEEK:
Kerrie's Pregnancy Diary!

Kerrie is our UK Accounts Wonder Woman and just like a lot of our customers... she's pregnant (which we are very excited about!). So as our first 'Dear Diary' series, we thought it would be a great idea for Kerrie to write a weekly blog of what she's been upto and how she's getting on throughout her pregnancy.
As a mummy to two very gorgeous children - Cáilum & Tiérnan, Kerrie knows her stuff so don't be afraid to ask her any questions you might have. Simply comment below her entries for a response.

Why not share your journey with us - we'd love to hear from you!
Watch this space!!

New Catalogue, Fancy French Restaurants and Gold Winning Streaks!



What better way to celebrate our 6th birthday and our best selling nappies from Cotton Babies winning 3 GOLD Awards, than by jetting off to Harrogate! We met up with our lovely graphic design pals Scott, Karl and Tania and had great fun designing the new Natural Baby Resource catalogue.
We're putting the finishing touches to it now so it should be ready very soon. It's jam packed with clever new products so you'll be just as excited about it as we are! If you'd like one delivered straight to your door just drop me an email and you'll get one pronto (niamh@babame.com). Order now to give you plenty of time before the Christmas rush!

So we've been jumping for joy about the catalogue, but imagine how we felt when we found out that bumGenius has been on a GOLD Winning Streak! The nappy, from Cotton Babies, has just won GOLD at the Practical Parenting Awards adding to the 2 GOLD Awards & one BRONZE that Cotton Babies took home from the Practical Pre-School Awards last week!

Get the award winning bumGenius nappy now by visiting www.thenaturalbabyresource.co.uk
or for more info call our terrific team for a chat on +44 (0)2830 848 020.

All in all it's been a wonderful week for Team NBR! We had a brilliant time in Harrogate and even managed a glass of wine in our hotel despite having to ring the front door bell to get it (odd - we know!). A big thanks to our fab friend Scott who looked after us and even took us out to a fancy French restaurant with great food and even better wine. Next time though we will not be parking in the blue carpark at Dublin Airport, it is actually miles away! You have been warned!
