Today I want to tell you about my favorite pubs I more than likely spend St. Patrick’s Day in. Sligo, the town I live in only has only 22.000 people so you can imagine it is small enough but the pubs are great. There is so many. 1. Mc Hughs Mc Hughs is…
With St. Patrick’s Day fast approaching (or like the Irish say “Paddy’s day”) I thought I am sharing a couple of themed blog posts with you. Today it is all about arts & crafts. I said to myself a while ago that I want to do more with Matthew. Even though he already does loads in creche I’d like to…
Last month I reviewed Made With Love Valentine’s Cards for you. This month they have asked me to do the same for their Mother’s Day cards. Made With Love have been featured in the magazine Vogue and Daily Mail before. Their cards are all handmade. I was sent 2 samples to review. Just like the Valentine’s Card there is also…
The second week of March has started, which means another giveaway for you. Today I would like to give you the opportunity to win one of My 1st Years small personalized storage baskets. I have recently discovered this website through Dolly Dowsies’s Blog. Everything they have is personalized but you don’t need to personalize it of course. Whether you…
Have you ever come across a baby that won’t take a dodie at all or keeps it in for a few minutes and then spits it out? If so read on. Chloe is a complete different baby to what Matthew was. With the first baby you would expect it to be the fussy one, the one that always gives out…
Now that Chloe is 1 month I need to have a think about how I am doing up her nursery. I planned on doing it during pregnancy but because the computer room is basically being replaced with her nursery I thought I leave it for another while until she actually needs it so hubby can enjoy his room a bit…
“What mum? I fit just fine, let’s go”
When I first had Matthew, like every other first time mum I went out shopping for baby clothes. From the start I always thought Mothercare was a luxury baby shop only rich people can afford to shop in. When I had to look around for baby accessories I decided to go into Mothercare. To my surprise the items were a…
My little newborn is 1 month already! Fastest month ever… Well, I suppose February is shorter than any other month anyway. Height/Weight: I dont’t know what height or weight you are this week as you haven’t been weighed since 2 weeks. The public health nurse is only coming to visit us on Tuesday. But you have definitely put on…
I can’t actually believe it. My boy who used to be a little baby not so long ago (That’s what it feels like anyway) is now 2 1/2 years old. Where has the time gone? Not only you are 2 1/2 now you have become a big brother at the beginning of this month. Your little sister Chloe was…
It has been all about Chloe the last few weeks. I thought it might be time to give my cats some love now and share a post about them. They are members of the family too after all. I am a big cat lover. I never blog about them really because since having Matthew I don’t have as much time…
I have thought about Matthew’s going to bed routine for a while now and sometimes I even lose sleep over it. He is nearly 2 1/2 years and is not a baby anymore. Up until the weekend from the age of 1 he has been rocked to sleep. He is getting heavier now even though we have been rocking him…
The lovely Lisa at Mummascribbles has nominated me for the “One Lovely Blog Award”. I have heard of a few awards floating around in the blogging world but never heard of this one so it was great to receive it. Thanks again. There are 3 rules for the award: 1. Thank the person nominating you and link back to them in…
I was quite disappointed that I am not able to go to the Britmum awards because it is in the UK. Then after browsing a bit I discovered on “Irish Parenting Bloggers Website” that they are going to have their first ever Blog Awards this year. The Blog Awards 2015 will take place on April 25th in the Odessa restaurant…
At the play center today.
I have been on maternity leave since my 38th week. That’s a total of 4 weeks already sitting at home. Lucky enough baby came early and I didn’t have to sit at home bored thinking of what I can do to keep myself entertained. Now that baby is here, you might be busy changing nappy, feeding bottle, cleaning up sick,…
I have always been a big fan of home decor and DIY projects. Whenever there is a job to do in the house for example painting a wall, putting up a picture or creating a storage solution I am in my element. Wall Tattoos are a big thing in our house. I think they make the room look so much…
