A while ago I was contacted by a lovely guy from a company called Cheerz. In a nutshell they print photos, for example onto polaroid sized paper. One of their best selling products is the Cheerz Box. It was perfect timing because I was about to purchase more polaroid pictures for our wall. The last one has been almost two…
I would like to share something very special with you in this post. As most of you know I was born and raised in Germany. For people like you living in Ireland or the UK or anywhere else in the world you might not know how we are preparing in the run up to Christmas and what we do before…
Continuing on with my Christmas Gift Guide for this year, it’s toddlers today. My little girl is still too small to do a gift guide for girls for that reason I am only going to do a toddler one. I find it very hard to find something for her to be honest. Apart from cruising around on her ride…
Welcome back to my blog series “A Day in a Parenting Blogger’s Life”. I can’t believe we are in the middle of November already. Not the slightest I would have thought this series would be making it this far. Today I actually have one of my favourite bloggers sharing her daily routine. I have been following her blog for quite…
I can’t believe it has almost been four weeks since we moved into our new home. Tomorrow it will be four weeks to be exact. Time is surely flying. It will be Christmas before we know it. I like the fact we settled in well before Christmas. The least you want is stress about going through the Snag list. It…
We are in the second last month of the Siblings project. To me it was a successful one and I really enjoyed linking up each month. Even though I was out by a few days at the start. Eventually I got the hang of it and managed to post on time. Today is actually a bit of a delayed one…
Well that week went fast. I completely forgot to rate the last weeks Christmas gift guide linky and pick my favourite one. Unfortunately I didn’t reach many people who linked up. In fact there was only one. It was Megan from Whisper to Roar. She even was so kind and retweeted it on Twitter to make sure it spreads around.…
Last weekend Chloe and I decided to explore County Kildare a bit more, our new home county. People who follow me on Instagram, might know that Chloe started walking around four weeks ago. She has been wearing soft shoes for the last three weeks which she absolutely loves. It is recommended to wait with proper shoes until they walked for…
Oh how I love getting excited for Christmas. The preparation, the organising, the decorating. Another thing I love doing to get me excited for Christmas, is watching Christmas Movies. There are so many great ones out there. Today I want to share a few with you that you can watch with your kids some evenings with a bit of popcorn.…
This weekend I took a trip to London. There was one particular reason. Blogfest was on. I have never been to a blogging event in the UK before and I heard only good things about it from other bloggers. The ticket was a bit pricey but thankfully I got the early bird which was £75 instead of £95. The original…
Today on the blog I am sharing a gift guide for himself, the man in the house, the dad, the boyfriend. The items you can see above are based on things I am going to buy for my other half for Christmas. Considering he is reading my blog everyday, it means he already knows what he is getting but that’s…
It’s Friday again which means another episode of my blog series “A Day in a Parenting Blogger’s Life” is up again. Today it’s a blogger I follow quite a lot. It’s Steph from Renovation Bay Bee. Her home decor post inspire me the most. You have to check out her blog. But apart from being super duper at decorating, she…
I love reading to the kids. It is part of our daily bedtime routine and I wouldn’t change it ever. It is very good for them later in life especially now that Matthew started pre-school and he will be entering the big school next year. It’s so beneficial to them. As a child myself I had millions of books (Slightly…
It’s that time of the year again. The stress of going out to the busy shopping centres, queuing up to get parked and purchasing Christmas presents. Have you got an idea yet what to buy your other half, your mum, your dad, your kids, your pets? Last year my Christmas gift guide linky was somewhat a success. I wanted to…
I think it’s fair to say that we can all mention the C word now which is CHRISTMAS. I love Christmas. There is really a lot of planning going into each year. Buying Christmas pyjamas for the kids is one of the first things on the list that happens. I normally get them from Next but I actually haven’t seen…
Welcome back to “A Day in a Parenting Blogger’s Life”. It’s exactly two months since I started this blog series and I can’t believe so many people are interested in featuring. Again thanks so much to everyone who took part so far and to everyone remaining coming up in the month of November and December. Keep them coming. We love…
Matthew loves his cars and trucks. He definitely doesn’t have a shortage of them but he likes collecting more. When Mattel got in touch to review the Disney Cars Mack Truck we were more than delighted. Matthew loves Cars. We watched both movies multiple times and he never gets sick of them. The truck can be played in two different…
I was so jealous of all the bloggers going to the pumpkin patch this month. I really wanted to take Matthew to one, too as I knew he would love it. So off I went on my phone to do a quick Google. Unfortunately unsuccessful. At the time we still lived in the old house. Until I saw a post…
What a month it has been. The last four weeks were pretty much based all around the big move. We had to sign a lot of documents. I had to get moving box and declutter a lot of things. Because of that we haven’t really done much in the month. It has been a stressful one. But we are now…
We survived the induction week in creche this week. I didn’t think the kids would do as good as they did. I know kids can adapt well to change and to Chloe all she ever knew, was the minders. She would have been too small to create a friendship with one of the other toddlers. In terms of moving, she…
