For most parents weaning can be quite difficult and overwhelming. Either because they don’t know how to start or when to start. As a guidance weaning should not start earlier than 17 weeks and not later than 26 weeks. Normally breastfed babies start getting solids around the 6 months mark. Some parents might even decide with the baby-led weaning method…
I haven’t really posted anything about my second pregnancy on my blog but now that everything is finally coming to an end I think I should all prepare you. I am going to be 37 weeks pregnant on Monday which leads me to the end of my pregnancy. I am going to start maternity leave on Friday. Same as Matthew…
Today I’d like to share my top 5 clothes shops for babies/children with you. Most of Matthew’s clothes are purchased in the online stores even though we do have some of them in town. I just find that there is so much more variety online than there is in the shop considering we live in a small town so it…
This week I am linking up again with Kate’s “Tried & Tested” over on “MyFamilyFever“. I’d like to review one of Tommee Tippee’s products for you this time. I know sometimes it can be difficult to find the right cup for our toddlers. Somehow I found it about a year ago and Matthew has been using it ever since (With replacing…
Today I’d like to show you Matthew’s bedroom. I designed it when I was 20 weeks pregnant with him. I decided not to change it into a toddler/boys room for a while as Winnie Pooh is loved by everyone at every age. The above picture shows his current cot bed which was purchased in Mothercare. I went with a…
I haven’t shared a recipe with you in ages. Today I was browsing the internet a bit (as I do everyday!) on the look out for new dinner recipes. I have always wanted to make banana bread because it is so nice and so easy to make. Over on SimplyRecipes I found an easy recipe for this and tried it…
It is getting closer to my due date now. I am going to be hitting the 36 weeks mark on Monday. This means it is time to pack my hospital bag and wash baby’s clothes this weekend. I am so unorganised this time round. But I think it has got to do with the fact that I have a toddler running around…
Today I want to introduce you to an app I am using frequently for storing photo memories of my son. I have been using it since Matthew was a newborn. It’s called 23Snaps. In a nutshell it is a private photo sharing app which was designed by parents, for parents.It is a secure…
Flat out after Christmas and New Years.
Recently I have blogged about the Christmas presents I got. One of them was a new laptop. I have been using it every day ever since I got it. I know that some of you were thinking of getting a new one, maybe because either it is broken, unusable or you simply want to treat yourself. The main reason why…
And here we are… first giveaway of the year as promised. Over the last few months Matthew has developed a passion for “Thomas the tank engine”. He loves just everything that involves “choo choo”. The cutest thing ever actually is when he watches “Thomas” on TV. He has to have his 2 push along trains in his hands watching it.…
As part of my blog goals this year I am ticking one off already. This is one of the blog linky’s I want to participate in weekly. It is launched by the lovely Jenna over at TinyFootSteps. Out and About We haven’t been out at all this week and that is actually one of my family goals for this year.…
I think it’s fair to say that blogging has taken up my free time in the last few months. Even hubby can confirm. I am known for giving up on things quickly and because I love being on the social network and working on my new laptop I think blogging should be one of my hobbies I shouldn’t give up…
This is going to be my last post of the year 2014. What a roller coaster of a year it has been. It had its ups and downs. The New Year will start off with a lovely addition into our family. I am really looking forward to it. Unfortunately I don’t get to celebrate New Year’s Eve like we would…
You must be sick of reading from me everyday these days. I am so active on my blog in the last few weeks, it must be a blogging high or that magical time of the year. I swear, this will be my last Christmas related post of the year. I can’t believe that this has actually been the 3rd Christmas…
I can’t believe how fast Christmas flew this year. 28th December already and Christmas is basically over. It makes me a bit sad that good times like that always go so quickly. We did have an amazing Christmas though. Matthew is delighted with all the new toys Santa brought him. He has hardly touched any of his old toys so…
After doing the Christmas Tag I was delighted to be able to find the “New Year Tag” on YouBabyMeMummy’s Blog. So here it goes. I hope other Mummy Bloggers will join in. I will tag one or two at the end of my post. What was your highlight of 2014? Even though it has been a tough year for me, there…
