It’s amazing how quick the long weekend goes when you have something planned everyday. It goes even faster when you have children. I remember the time we celebrated Easter before having children. It was definitely longer. Our Easter started pretty much on Friday. While Matthew was still in creche for the day I went off to do some shopping and…
So the Easter bunny has been busy this year. I got all the present he is going to look for in the morning. Last year he only got chocolate and no presents. But I think because I was kind of spoiled at Easter too other than just chocolate, Matthew deserves a little treat, too. I filled his Easter basket a…
Motherhood, our kids and parenting advice is a subject everyday. I think it was time to write a post what life was like before becoming a mum of two. You are probably all aware by now that I was born in Germany and have been living my life there with my grandparents and mum up until the age of 19.…
It is that time of the month again. Me & Mine from the beautiful Lucy over on Dear Beautiful Boy. I missed last month link up because it was such a busy month and I just didn’t get time to take a photo at all. Either Matthew wasn’t up for it or Chloe was too windy as by the looks…
And another 2 weeks have passed since my last update on Chloe. She’ll be 1 year old in no time. That’s how fast the time is going. Height/Weight: We were at the GP for your 6 weeks check up a week ago. You weighed 4,8kg (at this point I think you are 5kg at least because you are gaining about 200g a…
I want to capture this on my blog too as a keepsake for the future because it is very important to me. Some of you may or may not know that I lost my mum to cancer this time last year. I had written a post about it back then but I only started getting into the blogging then so…
I love seeing new linkys and can’t wait to join them in. Photo related linkys are particularly nice. A week ago I read that Nicola over on Life Through My Eyes is launching another linky. Not just any linky but a linky that requires you to take a photo of mummy and the children. This is exactly what I needed…
Hubby and me have been engaged now for over 3 years. Having 2 children now I think it is about time to get married. At the moment I am doing the planning for a possible wedding next summer. Exciting times. I don’t have many friends that have children, In fact there’s only one friend who will come with one but…
We’ve had a few tough weeks with Chloe. She has been in discomfort and spat up loads of milk. In the first place I thought she had reflux which can be a nightmare but she didn’t show all signs of having reflux. On Friday then we went to the GP to have her 6 week check up. I mentioned her…
While I was doing my catching up of blogging today I found this cool questionnaire on El and Baby A’s blog. You know how I love a good old questionnaire or survey even. There was no way to get around and not to join. I can simply not ignore these things.This is also a great way to get to know…
It’s Monday and the end of the month which means it’s my last giveaway for my blogiversary this month. (Booo some of you might think now) For the last giveaway I’d like our little ones to have something so I am giving away a gift card for Smyths Toys Store with the value of £20. Again all you have to…
I haven’t reviewed an item on my blog in forever. There goes my blog goal for this year of reviewing an item once a week. I will get better though I promise. A week ago daddy had to do some work in Dublin. When he came home on Thursday evening, he brought with him a new toy for Matthew. It is…
It is only 2 more weeks until Easter. I have been busy decorating the house the last few days and got a few bits Matthew and me can do leaning towards Easter. This is my Easter mantel piece this year. Every decoration on there I actually got from my mum so it is even more special to have them on…
You probably remember less than a year ago I treated myself to a new car aka mammy wagon. Now that I have been driving it for nearly a year I decided to get rid of it and get a cheaper car because the value of that Audi was just too high to only drive in town. Honestly it took me…
It’s Monday again which means my 3rd giveaway of the month is happening. For the next 2 weeks I’d like to give you the opportunity to win a Next gift card with the value of £20. Next is a favourite shop of mine. I buy all Matthew’s and Chloe’s there. I pick up clothes for myself too there. They might…

You are nearly 52cm long. Sizes: My little chunk is now in nappy size 2. She also also moved up to…
