Me and Mine | September 2018
I've seen the 'Me and Mine' link up appear on quite a few of the blogs I follow and decided to have a go myself. I love the idea that it's about sharing a photograph of the whole family as more often than not it's one of us taking a picture of the other two so it's good to be making a conscious effort to get us all in front of the camera.
Living Arrows | My Big Boy Turns 8!
'You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth' Khalil Gibran.
This weeks Living Arrows is a special one as it's dedicated to my other child (no, not Daddy!), this week is all about Ian. My big man is turning 8, not that he knows it! He is still very much a puppy at heart. He bounces around the house and greets all people with an enthusiastic jump, lick and fuss. He maybe looking a little grey around the edges but his personality hasn't aged since the day I brought him home.
Parenting | What Is Reflux And How To Treat It.
Reflux occurs when the oesophagus is underdeveloped and
allows stomach contents to flow back up into the mouth and throat. There are
two types, Reflux and Silent Reflux. Reflux tends to manifest as significant
vomiting whereas silent reflux tends to be where the stomach contents flow up to
the mouth and irritate the area.
Most Used Items | Our Weaning Essentials
Weaning can be scary and just like with breast vs. bottle you will be judged on how you approach it. Sad but true. We personally adopted the baby led weaning approach and it worked exceptionally well for us and Iris is a fabulous eater but it won't work for everybody. Weaning is like the entirety of parenthood, it's down to you to work out what's best for your family and the types of product you use for weaning are also very much down to personal choice but for us these are the things that have found most useful.
Living Arrows | One Year Old
'You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth' Khalil Gibran.
This week's Living Arrows is a thought provoking one. It was Iris's first birthday and I anticipated a glorious collection of photographs celebrating a glorious weekend of activities. We had a family day on her actual birthday, just me, Iris and Daddy. Then we had plans to go to the football match on the Saturday and then we were having a party with all our friends on the Sunday. In my mind it was going to be 'Insta-fabulous' but in reality the photos are largely just blurry smudges and nothing like the perfection I expected.
