Last weekend I went on a little shopping spree. I was only supposed to go for two things but you know the way it is. You always end up buying more. Plus I didn’t have the kids with me so of course you want to browse because you can browse in peace and don’t need to rush. We have a…
It’s FRIYAY!! I actually can’t wait for the weekend to start. I was off sick at the beginning of the week and I don’t think it’s still not quite right. I’ll have a busy weekend ahead though because hubby is going on a mini trip. But on Sunday afternoon I am going for afternoon tea with my friend. Have to…
Another month has passed and it’s time again to see how brother and sister have been getting on the last month. The month of February started off with a celebration. It was Chloe’s second birthday. We had a small party for her at the weekend and had cousin’s over. The weather was on our side and they were playing outside…
When my friend comes over for a visit from Germany, we always do a day of exploring around Ireland. Generally around the region of Sligo. She hasn’t been to visit me since we moved to County Kildare. Can you imagine how much we have to explore here? It would take us days, if not even weeks. We only live at…
“What are you going to have for tea?”, “For tea Chloe had…” and it goes on and on. But what exactly is tea? I never had to deal with the word tea until my kids entered the world of crèche. I got really confused. You see for me the meal times are as follows: Breakfast Lunch Dinner And because they…
Happy Friday everyone. Friday means it’s time to feature a parenting blogger again with a day in their life. Today it’s Amy from Amy Treasure. I am following her blog for quite some time and got some great blogging tips off her blog. Over to you Amy.
I was recently challenged by Britmums to give advice what remedies we use when the kids are sick. What do I actually do/ use when they have a terrible cold or a fever? It can be quite tough to look after a sick kid. Think about it… when you feel miserable yourself. Sniffing and sneezing, feeling sorry for yourself. The…
The last week has gone like a blitz. I’d say it’s mainly because I put so much effort into Chloe having her best birthday ever. She is certainly a toddler now. She had a ball in creche last week celebrating with her little friends. It is the cutest thing ever. Even her big brother was allowed to join in the…
At the weekend we had a big celebration on. If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you will know that my little lady turned two on Wednesday gone by. As it is bad luck to celebrate before your actual birthday, we decided to have her birthday party on the Saturday. She is only two, so we only invited her…
This week I was nominated by the lovely Nicole who blogs at Little World Adventures. I found her blog by pure chance the other day in a Irish blogger Facebook group. She blogged about London essentials and because I have been to London only two weeks ago and her post caught my eye. I have been nominated for this award…
Good morning to you all. I hope your week wasn’t as stressful. Thank God it’s Friday. I can’t wait for the weekend to start. It should be definitely longer than two days. Saturday we have Chloe’s party planned with great cousins. So tonight I’ll be busy baking. Fun fun fun. Continuing on with my blog series “A Day in a…
Dear Chloe, today is your big day. It’s your birthday. You turned an unbelievably TWO years of age. You have been with us for a solid two years. I always say it but I want to say it again, the years have flown by. You bring us lots of joy everyday. Of course there are your moments where you have a…
A while ago I was contacted by Cartamundi to review one of their new play and learn games. We do welcome a new educational game every now and then in our collection. Now that Matthew is 4 1/2 years, it is very enjoyable playing games with him. He actually received a few family games we can play together at Christmas.…
It’s the first month of Me and Mine this year. The project where I link up one family portrait of us for each month. I am always very excited about this because it means we have photos of the four of use for years to come. Apologies in advanced but our Me and Mine photo didn’t turn out as I…
Last weekend we took it quite easy. We didn’t even go outside. It wasn’t the weather for it anyway. Instead we spent time indoors. Playing, making, baking. Saturday morning was dedicated to cleaning. I was away the weekend before that so the house was a bit neglected when it comes to mopping, hoovering and sweeping. I caught up on that…
Welcome back. I hope you all had a good week. It’s nearly the weekend. We have no plans but hubby is going to a gaming event on Saturday so me and the kids might bake. It is Chloe’s second birthday next week so a trial would be good. Today I have Nicola joining me on the blog. She blogs at…
I thought this might be helpful to some people who are planning to explore London in the next upcoming months. I would have been lost without these apps/ tools. I don’t know how we did it years ago when there was no smartphone. I suppose there were our parents who were just magic and knew where to go all the…
On Saturday I turned the big thirty. Instead of celebrating with hubby and kids, I decided to go away for the weekend. I was undecided at first whether I should travel around Ireland or going to London. In the end I went for London. Last time I was only there for 24 hours when the Blogfest was on so I…
Hello and welcome back to my third installment in the new year 2017 of “A Day in a Parenting Blogger’s Life”. I hope you all enjoyed the installments so far every Friday. Guess what.. tomorrow is a special day. I am turning thirty. Can you believe it? I certainly can’t because I still feel like twenty. Ha Today I have…
It is exactly two more weeks until my little baby girl turns two. Two years of age already. It has gone by so quickly. She can be a little diva sometimes and has been in her terrible two for quite some time already. But we still love her the way she is. She is our little cutie pie, our little…
