A busy mums must haves #10 {boys leggings}

by

I have fallen in love with the boys legging range from the shop baby zara. We have a fair few pairs already but I would buy the whole collection if i could. Little O looks so comfortable in them and i just love the prints and pattens. I normally team them with either a long sleeve vest or a funky little t shirt.  These are definitely a winter staple in his wardrobe.

And so it begins. …..

The small one is now 6 months old, and this past week we have started to introduce food!! he loves it, the new tastes and textures and he really seems to enjoy being part of meal time.

We decided to do baby lead weaning as he is quite independent and has very good hand to mouth skills. So far he has munched on Apple, Mango, carrot,  sweet potato, cucumber,  broccoli and he stole a Yorkshire pudding for my plate!!

I don’t think he has a favourite food, he just loves it.

What are you all up to this weekend?  whatever it is have fun!!

A busy mums must haves #7 {small ones best buys}

by

Some of the items I have had since my little man was a baby, and the small one has used them all but one ( the high chair)

Again I cant fault any of them and both boys have loved them. My top number 1 on my list is the swing,  I couldn’t be without it. I have been lucky that neither child became dependent on it. My next would be the jumperoo, it gives me 5 mins to pop and make a tea.

I added the highchair in even tho the small one has not used it because I remember that the all plastic wipe clean chair was fantastic when I was weaning the little man. And when it got really dirty it fitted in the shower.

So here they are…

A busy mum’s must haves #6 {The small ones summer wardrobe}

by

Its been so hot lately that half of the small ones wardrobe has gone untouched.  He has been living in vests, sleepsuits and on really hot days just a nappy.  There are some truly adorable little boys outfits that are great and practical for the hot weather.  Soft fabrics amd cool prints it what I love, so here is a little look at what the small one has been wearing over the summer.

4 month growth spurt…..

by

Its been one of them weeks,  the small one is going though his 4 months growth spurt. I don’t know if I am coming or going half the time and it feels like I have a newborn baby again that has completely lost his routine.

I can deal with the frequent feeding it feels productive,  he wants it and takes it. The grumpiness that have consumed my child is completely draining. He is no longer his happy content settled self.  He will not settle for longer than 10 mins by himself and I am constantly trying to entertain a baby that has no interest. This past week has been hard work, trying to settle the small one and spend time with little man. The house work has piled up and any “me” time is completely nonexistent. 

I have been lucky that the oh was on a week of early finishes from work so he has been around in the evenings to help out with dinners and bed times.

We are moving onto the second week and the small one is showing no improvement. The oh is now on a week of lates so I am worrying how I am going to cope with dinner, baths and bed, keeping a 4 year old entertain while helping the small one with his changes that the growth spurt is putting him though.

I have always let baby lead me so that’s my plan, continue to give the small one what he wants and hope that the growth spurt is nearly over.

A busy mums must haves #5 {The changing bag}

by

My Changing bag for the small one is always ready to go just incase I need to pop out last minute. Having it ready also saves time on planned trips out as Its one less thing to think about before we head out the door.

I love my changing bag and just as well as since having children I rarely have the hands for my own bag, so all of my bits end up in it as well.

So this it whats in my changing bag, along with my keys, money ,sunglasses and lip gloss.
