It has been a while since I last blogged, but as my littlest turned 18 months I felt compelled to get his current characteristics and learning’s noted down so we don’t forget. The day to day continues, and I have to remember how important it is to stop and realise what he is doing now, and […]

Arlo turns one…
Where does time go? One minute your lugging around an oversized tummy with your bone structure crippling under the increasing weight, the next your encouraging a little person to take his first steps, share his toys and giggle at funny actions. It all seems to go so fast. However, at the same time, that newborn […]
The beginning of sleep….
As Arlo approaches one year old (I know, where did that go!?) there is lots of reflecting going on (although that seems to be my January theme too at the moment!!). A massive one has been about the past years sleep, or lack of it. I have always loved my bed and sleeping. 8-10 hours […]
Arlo at 9 Months…
The old cliche- Arlo has now been here for as long as he was in my tummy. 9 months in, 9 months out. It seems to have come as such a milestone that I wanted to capture what he is up to! Firstly, he is now so grown up he attends nursery 4 days a […]
A journey from Breast to Bottle…
Our journey from breast feeding to bottle feeding has not been easy. It is by no means complete, but we have made progress so it is worth documenting. Honestly, I didn’t really think getting a baby to take a bottle was a real issue. I had heard about it before and thought it sounded tough, […]
Arlo at 7 months…
So I didn’t write one of these at 6 months. All I could think to write was ‘you don’t sleep and I am knackered’, and so just didn’t get round to writing it. Well Arlo still wakes loads in the night, but we have just had a holiday so I have a bit more energy […]
Early weaning….
I find weaning to be such a big milestone. Your baby becomes a proper little person when they learn that there is more to life than just milk. I find it very exciting too. All these new foods, flavours and texture to explore!! I really enjoyed weaning with Woody, and he is such a good […]
Arlo at 5 months…
Arlo has turned 5 months old this week. At times he still feels so little and new, and then at others it feels like he has been here forever!! It does feel like he has developed lots in the last 4 weeks and is really aware of what is going on around him so I […]
Arlo at 4 months
Arlo has just turned 4 months. That old cliche of where does time go is definitely ringing true- where has all the time gone!!! Our tiny little newborn has grown into a gorgeous, smiling, happy baby. He is really starting to become a little person with a little personality. Arlo is a very relaxed, chilled […]
Arlo’s Birth Story
As Arlo reaches 3 months I am feeling the desire to write his birth story before I forget it all. Its one of those things that is very difficult to forget, but all the details do begin to fade so I want to get as much as I can remember now so I can keep […]
