Playing with our food aka ninja-fighting with leeks

This made me laugh. It also amazed me and that’s why I’m sharing it on the blog.

On Saturday morning Georgie got creative with two leeks he found on the kitchen counter. Ninja-fighting or kung fu fighting or whatever you want to call it, he played with those leeks for most of the day. This is a great example of how inventive and imaginative kids can be.

Sorry about the lack of STUFF these past two weeks. I was thinking of scheduling a post last week when we were away but I decided to just take the day off! Ha!

1. I’m hoping to make it to this Get Fresh event on Saturday.

2. I don’t have the FB app on my phone but apparently everyone’s stoked about discovering another hidden message inbox on there so check it!

Where to go with kids in Vienna

I felt certain that Vienna would be the perfect ‘new and exciting’ place to go with Georgie. Sans papa. It’s only a three-hour plane ride from Cyprus, a very safe city and extremely child-friendly.

Every single metro station has a lift which makes traveling with a bump and a buggy so much easier and the city centre is jam-packed with the most beautiful parks and playgrounds. The weather was perfect and the food was too.

Georgie in Vienna

We’re back from our four-day trip to Vienna! There were moments when it was challenging but thankfully there were even more moments when it absolutely rocked! 

I’m pretty sure that had I not been 30 weeks pregnant the challenging part of our trip- such as walking and pushing a five-year old in a buggy for hours- would have been more exciting. In spite of running out of breath and aching legs, I am still glad I took this trip with my boy before his little brother arrives. And thank you to one of my best friends for this great picture and many more I have to cherish x

An interview with Claire Anne Mavris

As I explained in this post, I am hoping to succeed in having a VBAC when its time for this baby to make his way into the world. There were a number of things I had on my list of things to do to prepare myself but honestly I felt none were as important as hiring a doula.

I knew I wanted one from the moment my doctor gave me the OK for a VBAC. So I scheduled an appointment with the clinic’s antenatal coordinator/doula who is none other than the lovely Claire Anne Mavris. We sat down for a chat or as I like to call it ‘a grilling session’. I wanted to know everything about her work at the ISIS Clinic but most importantly I wanted to know what she could do for me when the time comes.
