It's hard to believe I have now gone past the 4 month mark with Aisling, time seems to be just slipping through my fingers! After Christmas, due to her growing at an extraordinary rate, we decided to move her into the bigger cot. It doesn't fit in our room which meant moving her too, sigh!! … Continue reading New Year, New Room

Nearly 10 weeks with newborn
How has 10 weeks passed since I gave birth!! I thought I would do a blog post each week, how naive I was. I totally forgot how demanding a newborn is!!

How your other half can help
I just read this article and felt compelled to share it. I resonated with so many things he says and myself and the hubby have openly talked about what we would do differently, should we be lucky enough to have another child. I dedicate this to my brother who welcomed a new little boy last … Continue reading How your other half can help

My mat leave ended yesterday and I have been going through an emotional rollercoaster since we got back from holidays. Isobel has been especially clingy with me at nap times. I am still trying to wean her from the boob, she just won't give up the night feed, even if she gets a bottle beforehand. … Continue reading A new chapter
Home away from home

We have decided apartment style holidays are the way forward with babies. After spending 3 nights in Arezzo in a small double room and … Continue reading Home away from home
Livin’ La Dolce Vita
Life certainly is sweet in Italy when you get served a couple of slices of apple cake for breakfast. I don’t think I have been anywhere where so much cake is served in the morning!
