Hello and welcome to our regular roundup of the freshest and bestest of the UK parent bloggers. This week has been half term, and with many people off on holiday, you'd've thunk that blogging would slip down the list of priorities. But not so – you can't keep a good mummy blogger down.

So what have our imaginary friends off the internet been up to this week? Well, sympathy for Stay At Home Mum who is fried to a crisp.

Quite Dear needs some sleep. Don't we all! Sleep, if you recall, is that stuff we all had before we had kids, along with flat stomachs and a carefree attitude.

Sandy at Baby Baby has mixed feelings about the fact that her babies are growing up.

Tales from the Dad Side is feeling thankful, whilst Shouty Dad is scaling the peaks.

She Was Not At All Domestic is suffering from raging hormones. Spinning Plates would love some raging hormones, since her get up and go has got up and gone.

Here's something that'll get your hormones moving – this week on ParentDish we showed you the video that captures the moment a deaf baby heard his mother's voice for the first time. I defy anyone not to be moved by this.
