• Cloth Nappies
  

  I have been toying with the idea of cloth nappies for some time. My mom (hi mom) has always told that its difficult and gross. Other moms have told me that its really not that bad and is actually pretty easy once you get into it. I’ll be honest, I was/am nervous. I can be [...]

• Superhero
  

  A friend on FaceBook asked, “if you could be any superhero, who would you be?” There were the usual responses of Batman, Superman, Ironman (only men responded) and it got me thinking of who would I be. It took me about 2 minutes to realise that I’d be myself . I’m a mom, I’m the [...]

• Jaydon is 3 months old
  

  Today is the day that Jaydon hits the 3 month old mark. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly the months go by. He is doing well and is a fantastic little guy. He is fitting into his 3-6month clothing and is around 7.5kgs. He’s the size of an average 6month old it looks [...]

• Laundry blessings
  

  I’m in love… with my laundry. I didn’t always feel this way about my laundry. For a while I begrudged it. I’d moan at it and curse it. Everytime I found that it had grown a little bigger… I’d get angry. I’d wonder who kept feeding it and why at times it seemed so out [...]

• On mothers guilt
  

  Mothers Guilt… Its a rather nasty little phrase. I don’t like it or what it represents. Personally, I’d like to see those words kicked to the curb! I don’t believe that those words should hold the power that they do. They seem to suck too many moms in and spit them out as bedraggled, confused [...]

• Blessed
  

  I’m feeling so blessed! I have 4 beautiful sprogs (1 of whom is currently passed out on my chest). I have an amazing husband, who truly completes me. I want for nothing. None of these have come by my works/deeds. They are all gifts from God. I am an undeserving sinner, saved by His grace. [...]

• Twitter Birth
  

  If you follow me on Twitter, you’ll know that between B, Mel and I, we tweeted throughout labour. It made for a very unique and special experience. From the second I tweeted that I was indeed in labour, the love, support and encouragement started coming in. I could actually feel everyone’s thoughts and prayers. They [...]

• Jaydon’s Birth Story
  

  On Friday, 27 January, we had a shocking night. I was lucky if I had 4 hours sleep. I said to B on Saturday morning, “watch, tonight’s the night I go into labour as I’m so tired!”. We had a giggled and carried on. Turns out, that little statement came true I had been saying [...]

• 40 week update
  

  I’m behind in blog posts, just for a change The day I went for my 40 weeks scan, I was still feeling very comfortable. I was struggling a bit in the heat but it was nothing that an hour or 2 in the swimming pool couldn’t cure. That and munching lots of ice I still [...]

• #4 Update – 34 weeks
  

  Today was our 34 week scan. It was fantastic! This time around, scans feel like something special again. With Kyla, scans felt like a chore. But having had so few this time, has made me really appreciate and enjoy them again #4 is doing great. There’s still lots of space to grow and everything is [...]
