You might remember back in August I wrote about our bedtime routine. If you have missed it or need to catch up on how our routine was back then you can do this here.

Another week has passed. Chloe is now 2 weeks old. This week we have been out to register her in the office. So she is now official and has her own birth cert. The public health nurse has been on Tuesday and she is still at her last weigh in that she was the week before that which was…
Living in Ireland it is pretty much essential to get your baby baptised/ christened or whatever you would like to call it. I don’t come from a religious background at all but I still feel for later in life it is important that your child at least has the choice whether he wants to have a communion with all his…
Matthew loves books. He welcomes any new book in the house. If I ordered one or got one on the day, he insists on reading it that evening before bed time. I discovered an amazing book company on Twitter recently and thought I should sample it. I ordered a book called “The little Boy who lost his name”. It is…

Can you actually believe it… Chloe is already a week old! That week went so fast. She’s been at home since Tuesday evening. Unfortunately she is a night owl which means she sleeps all day and come the evening she is kicking up and cries the house down. The only good thing about it is that her big brother…
First walk as a 4 piece.
I know I am 7 days late with this and I did plan to take a photo of the 3 of us but baby had a different plan on the day the linky went live. So I only got around to take a photo of the 4 of us now. Matthew is still getting around to his baby sister.…
After seeing this company on so many blogs lately I have decided I am going to try it out myself. What is Sassy Bloom? It is a box that is being hand picked by Sassy Bloom box’s staff by age, stage of development and gender. You can choose a plan whether you want to receive it for the next year,…
I can’t believe I am actually writing about this already. Today I would only be 39 weeks and 3 days but instead I have my bundle of joy sleeping in the moses basket beside me. It all started off Friday night. I woke up with what I thought could be waters leaking. I kept going all Saturday and watched it…

So my next giveaway is for all the mummy’s out there as my January competition was all about our kids. For your chance to win 15 free prints on Polagrams website, all you have to…
I never really write any updates on my little boy so today I thought I will have to start doing this as apart from posting photos of my little dude I don’t mention him much. Today marks a special day. He turned 29 months! I can’t actually believe he is nearly 2 1/2 years old. Where has my little…

And another week has gone by. I am officially on maternity leave now. So time to put those feet up and relax for the next 2/3 weeks. This afternoon I have finally managed to pack my hospital bag. About time but I know this baby will be late too. I have a feeling. I decided to use the…
How exciting is this! Yesterday morning I turned on the WiFi on my phone having to find out that I have been nominated for the “Liebster Award”. I have been waiting for this day so long because I have seen so many people getting nominated before and some have been nominated numerous times that I got a bit jealous. But…
We have been dealing with a lot of teething the last 3 days. I feel so sorry for Matthew but the good news is that these molars going to be his last ones. I don’t actually know how many teeth he has in total but the last 4 molars in the back are normally the worst and he is missing…
Off to creche.
The lovely people at Tots100 have teamed up with H&A this year and gave a few parenting bloggers the opportunity to review their “Bathtime Fun Squirting Ducks”. One of the bloggers was me and I feel really honored to be able to get this opportunity because bath time is a big thing in our house. The ducks came in at…
