The heatwave hit and my youngest hasn’t been well at all. It might sound like an exaggeration but I’ve honestly never felt a child burning up like … Continue Reading »

The journey to number three!
The weeks appear to be flying by at the moment and unintentionally I’ve let the blog slide a little. It’s been hectic to say the least. I’m fine, the bump is growing nearly hit the 20 week marker and it’s been a rollercoaster of a journey. My little ones are surprising me by … Continue Reading »
The first hair cut
The first hair cut This weekend weather-wise was pretty dire to say the least. We had our weekly Water Babies classes on Saturday and Sunday didn’t dare to venture out. I say that but we did.

Wipes, Wipes, Wipes
An essential item in every changing bag – wipes. We spend the best part of three years changing nappies and speed is of the essence, nobody enjoys the fly away poo, the explosion or just opening up the nappy and staring horrified at how such a tiny person can make such a big, smelly mess! … Continue Reading »
You give birth, then what? Parenting

Antenatal classes make out its such a doddle these days with disposable nappies, sterilisers, breast pumps, there is … Continue Reading »
