don’t judge me…i’m a mother

The other day I remembered a usual and casual evening i spent with my friend and her toddler when i was pregnant with Georgie. We were at a restaurant and the little one would not sit still! Nothing unusual there, right? But then he started playing with the napkins, a spoon, the ketchup bottle eventually throwing everything on the floor resulting in a lot of noise. My friend continued our conversation only stopping to replace everything back on the table. I couldn’t help but notice…and judge her. My child, i said to myself, will never be like that. Fast forward a year and a few months later and i’m handing him spoons, ketchup bottles, water bottles and napkin holders to play with…while i continue my conversation with my friends.

Goodmorning!

there’s a reason I’ve been away from the computer. i’ve been a bad mummy. on monday, just as I was rushing around to get Georgie ready for my sister’s birthday party I caught his fingers in the corner of the door. Ouch! I know! I still can’t think about it without feeling sick. Thankfully it wasn’t serious- apparently even if he had broken a bone, there’s nothing you can do about it. He screamed for half an hour, I cried more and then he was fine! Such a brave little boy. I’ll be posting a few pictures from Emilia’s party later on today.xxx

messy sundays

It was soooo hot today! But it’s not so bad when you have a child. They love going to the beach and you don’t mind being at the beach. Come to think of it things probably aren’t that relaxed when there’s sand, water and an excited toddler running about.Water stresses me out. Even giving Georgie a bath can worry me – i won’t take my eyes off him even for a second! And i mean that!- so what is the beach experience going to be like? Hopefully I’ll live through it without giving myself a heart attack. Today even though we were sea side we didn’t actually go very close to the sea. None of us were beach-ready so Georgie had to make do with a puddle.Over this past week Georgie has become more familiar with the term Hold My Hand. It was a struggle especially since he’s such a little adventurer. But then something magical happened and I happen to think it’s one of the cutest things ever!Guess what Georgie did shortly after? i was sooooo jealous!Our final chapter of the day included eating a big bowl of cereal while bursting water bubbles with daddy. It’s amazing how something so simple can keep kids occupied for ages!

berry ice lollies and new shoes

Now that summer is approaching fast, fruits are on the menu for my baby boy. He was only a few months old last year and just about getting started with solids so we didn’t get a chance to experiment a lot. I finally found some organic strawberries to mix with some frozen cranberries -you can’t get them in any other form in Cyprus, unfortunately- some banana and a bit of milk and made ice lollies. I only just made them so I’ll let you know if he likes them tomorrow.on another note, how do you like Georgie’s new Converse All Star trainers. I am obsessed with All Star trainers and knew they would definitely be my baby’s first shoes, even before he was born. These are ultra cool and looked fabulous with his black leggings.

playtime in the sand

We spent the day in Larnaca with my parents and grandparents. We stopped off for a bite by the sea, which meant that Georgie could get his first taste of sand- literally! I wasn’t well prepared- just a bucket and a few toys. no towel, no change of clothes but that didn’t seem to bother Georgie who enjoyed himself so much, I felt bad thinking about how I was going to get all that sand off him!
