Parenting and mum life; the less than likely way
I can't believe our Year of Firsts has come to an end! How quickly the last 365 days have flown by, each one with a new experience and learning curve for both me and little bear. As the year has passed, our milestones have become less, but even in December we managed to accomplish a [...]
Now we've past a year old, so there's no new days he hasn't seen before. This means there are quite a bit less firsts than most other months. That being said, there are still a lot of things the wee man hasn't experienced yet, some of which he tried out for the first time in [...]
We've made it to the 10th month in our year of firsts, and they are starting to thin out a little now. My boy has done so much in his first wee year of life already! However, there was one guaranteed first this month, which was equally celebrated and cried over. First Birthday! Yup, the [...]
11 months into his wee life, and we are still experiencing so many new firsts. September brought a lot of firsts and happy memories, with quite a few of the big "important" (well, what people regard as important or milestone) firsts happening this month. There will be nothing new left to do soon! First holiday [...]
I actually can't believe my little munchkin will be a whole year old in a few short days. The last year has been the most exhausting and amazing of my life and I wouldn't change it for the world. Well maybe except to make it longer as the time with my precious wee lamb has [...]
August Firsts - collated late due to our first holiday! (More on that next month...) Again, I thought I would be struggling for firsts, as the beggining of the month sort of saw Travis plateau if you like, getting comfortable at this wee stage of his life. I should have known it wouldn't last for [...]
So it's finally happening, the rate of new experiences is starting to slow down. Don't get me wrong, that's partly our fault for not seeking out many new things to do in July, as a result of work, timing or just plain lack of creativity! However we did manage to get up to a few [...]
Who can believe another month has come and gone again? The heat has made May, June and now July roll into one, so it's taken some real thought to remember what actually happened in each month, and what date it was actually a first! I'm blaming this partly on going back to work, so things [...]
I realise we're already halfway through the month of June, but we've had a lot going on lately (cue loads of June firsts!) so this and any other blog posts have taken a bit of a backseat, sorry Trav! First taste of summer The weather significantly picked up this month, even the first few days [...]
Bookbug is one of the new things we tried this year (in our January firsts) and something which Travis completely loves going to each week. It's also free (bonus) and something I mentioned in the top free things to do on maternity leave. It's something I can't advocate enough as something new parents should try, [...]
