Now that Matthew turned 3 last month, I think it is about time to get him used to the potty and help him understand what toilets are for and where to make his ‘poo poo’ and ‘wee wee’. He was never a fan of pulling down his trousers, taking off his nappy or running around half naked in the house.…
We are huge fans of Little Tikes in our house. Main reason is because every item is so robust and sturdy and it doesn’t break at all. I thought it might be fun to do a round up to see what we have bought so far. I was surprised how much it actually was, when I listed everything in notepad.…
I love surprises and the most I love are parcel surprised. My mum used to send me 3-4 parcels a year with so many bits inside it. Each parcel was very heavy, too. It had sweets and other things I needed from my home country inside it. My best friend Karo is now continuing this which I am very happy…
There’s another blog award up for grabs again this month. The Blog Awards Ireland have launched another awards night happening on October 22nd in the Tivoli Theatre in Dublin. It was chuffed to see that I made it into the longlist, but when I’ve seen a few weeks later that I made it into the actual shortlist I was delighted. Thanks to…
I can’t believe it is autumn already. It is starting to get colder outside. People start turning on the fire in the living room and get cosy. But this doesn’t mean you have to be stuck in the house with the kids 24/7. Wrap up warm and read on what you can do this autumn with your baby. Leaves Go…
Everyone that knows me, knows that I like keeping the weaning journey as simple as possible. Especially now that I have my hands full with 2 children. That’s why I was delighted when Cow & Gate got in touch with me to try out their new vegetable pouches. These are the first taste range. There are 4 flavours available: Carrot, broccoli,…
Some of you may or may not know that we have 2 cats in our household. I introduced them back the end of February.If you want to catch up on it, you can do so here. As they mainly live outside and get some cuddles only occasionally in the house, I want them to have at least a comfy bed…
When a blogger’s child reaches a milestone or does something that you have never seen her doing before, you are getting totally excited and want to blog about it to let the world know, right? This is exactly what this post is about. Despite mammy and daddy being sick all week, we had some joys from Chloe. We were supposed…
My little princess turned 7 months of age today. Mad isn’t it? The time goes so much faster when you have 2 kids. So let’s update you all on her development… Height/Weight: I have no idea what length she is yet. The next official check up is not until she is 8/9 months old. But I am sure she is…
It’s the end of August. Madness! There’s only 4 months left until 2015 ends. One of the quickest years I have experienced. It’s the 31st August and I am linking up with Lucy from Dear Beautiful again for her Me and Mine linky. A quick reminder to everyone who is new, this is a linky where you are supposed to…
A few months ago I got the opportunity to pick a party pack for Matthew’s 3rd birthday party by Party Bags and Supplies. He is into a lot of different characters lately but I don’t think anything can top Thomas the tank engine. He loves trains and plays with them daily, if not even hourly. Party Bags and Supplies are…
I have been going on about Matthew’s birthday the last few days quite a lot on the blog. But it is such a big deal for any mum I’d say for their little baby to turn the big 3. His actual birthday was on Friday. He went to crèche/nursery that day and when he came home,I had his presents corner…
This post was supposed to be up yesterday but unfortunately Chloe decided to get sick. The poor little thing has a stomach bug so she needed all my attention and cuddles. So my not so little boy turned 3 years of age today. He brought a Minion cake into creche for all his friends to share with. Tomorrow is his…
Matthew’s 3rd birthday is fast approaching and I thought it might be nice to look back on his first and second birthday. There are only 3 days left until my toddler is no longer a toddler anymore and turns into a big boy. Sad isn’t it? They are growing too fast. I have never actually blogged about his first birthday…
I had this post in my drafts for quite some time now and was thinking back and forth whether I should share this with you or not. But I think it might be actually quite handy for some mums out there who have one or two children but can’t afford the nursery fees for example. You finished school but you are…
On Friday we had a very special day at work. It was employee appreciation day. A bit of fun all day rather than work. We did work a bit because I am working on the helpdesk. People on the helpdesk had to be broken up into 2 groups so we have at least a few people on the phones at…
Recently I got the opportunity to review one of Slumbersac’s baby sleeping bags. This was the perfect time because I haven’t actually put Chloe into a sleeping bag yet. Up to this point she has been using one of 2 cellular blankets. In case you haven’t heard of Slumbersac before, here is a little summary what they are doing, followed…
I have been in the blogging community well over a year now. Even though it took me some time to get around to the UK/Irish blogs, I managed eventually and I have a good few now that I love reading daily, if not even twice a day, depending how often the blogger updates their blog. Somehow I started off reading…
I was recently tagged by Simplyhomemademum to be taken part in the blogger interview. Thanks very much and here we go: How did you get into blogging? I have started blogging a few years ago but not with a serious approach to make it public. It was just an online diary for myself to record my travelling and day to…
It’s just 11 days left until my little baby will turn 3 years of age. I can’t believe that he will be that age already. This means he is certainly not a baby anymore and saddest of all I can’t call him a toddler. Originally I didn’t plan on buying him a lot for his birthday as his daddy bought…
