For the new year I said to myself that I would try and get out more with the kids and the hubby to do more stuff together as a family. Chloe will be one in February so she will be at an age it will be easier to travel. Less bottles, less stops and proper food. Before we had kids,…
And it happened again… another month has passed by and we are now into November. Can I just mention, it is only 52 more days until Christmas. Ahhh! Time to get that Christmas Shopping started. Back to the actual news I wanted to tell you about. Chloe has turned 9 months old yesterday. My not so little baby is only…
Look at this, who is this? Yes, it is my once newborn! Can you believe it, she turned 8 months old today. I don’t remember Matthew turning 8 months that quick, it’s unreal. If I blink one more time, she will be off walking soon. I want her to be my small little girl but unfortunately that’s not possible. So…
My little princess turned 7 months of age today. Mad isn’t it? The time goes so much faster when you have 2 kids. So let’s update you all on her development… Height/Weight: I have no idea what length she is yet. The next official check up is not until she is 8/9 months old. But I am sure she is…
I have been going on about Matthew’s birthday the last few days quite a lot on the blog. But it is such a big deal for any mum I’d say for their little baby to turn the big 3. His actual birthday was on Friday. He went to crèche/nursery that day and when he came home,I had his presents corner…
I had this post in my drafts for quite some time now and was thinking back and forth whether I should share this with you or not. But I think it might be actually quite handy for some mums out there who have one or two children but can’t afford the nursery fees for example. You finished school but you are…
It is Sunday evening which means a new week is starting tomorrow and it will be my second week back to work. As some of you may know my maternity leave ended 1 week ago. In Ireland you only get 6 months paid leave. You can add another 16 weeks I think but this would be unpaid. With my maternity…
Last weekend my friend Karo and I were very brave and decided we are going to book 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours horse riding lessons. As we don’t plan on taking it serious and making a hobby out of it I didn’t want to just go on the lunge for 20 mins and that was it. I always dreamt…
My little once you new born girl has turned 6 months old today. Can you actually believe it? Because I can’t. It has been the fastest 6 months ever. This also means I will be returning to work again. My first day back at work will be on Tuesday as Monday is a bank holiday in Ireland. Now sit back…
On Friday we started our first trip as a four piece. On the way to Killashee House Hotel in Co. Kildare not far from Dublin in fact. The journey actually wasn’t that bad. We left at a time where the kids were already fed and were due a nap. That was 1pm. The whole drive is normally 2 hours and…
A few weeks, even months ago, my bestie Karo and I decided we are going to meet up for her birthday and I was to fly over for it the beginning of July. So I asked hubby nicely to see if I can book it and if he is able to handle 2 kids. This was my mini holiday away…
Here we are again. It is time for another update on Chloe. That means she is another month older. I can’t actually believe it. The time is definitely flying faster when you have 2 kids. Height/Weight: Chloe was last weighed at a check up in the hospital which is about 2 weeks ago. She weighed 7.3 kg (16 pounds). I’d…
Oh my God, can you actually believe it? Another month has passed which means Chloe is another month older. My little baby is now 4 months old and I can definitely not call my new born anymore. Crazy. How did she do this month? Please read on to find out. Height/Weight: We had our 3 months check up with the public…
Today my little girl turned 3 months of age. Crazy isn’t it? She has improved so much in the last 2-3 weeks but I will be telling you all about that in a minute. It is exactly like somebody said to me, when you have your second child you won’t take as many photos as you did with your first…
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…
Height/Weight: Last time the public health nurse been you weight 4,3kg (9lbs 5oz) and looking back on it you seem to be putting on 200g every week which means on Tuesday you should be 4,5 kg (9lbs 9oz) more than likely. You are nearly 52cm long. Sizes: My little chunk is now in nappy size 2. She also also moved up to…
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…
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…
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…
