Metal Mummy

We’ve had a lovely few days, having had Kristine (James’ mum) over the weekend, visiting from France. It’s been really nice, and Freyja has enjoyed her stay. We took her to the airport to catch her flight this morning, and I imagine Freyja was sad to see her go.
I’m sure her departure isn’t the reason [...]

Today was the first time Freyja went in her new car seat. It’s a Britax Eclipse forward facing one, that she can stay in til she’s 4. It’s awesome, and has a funky table thing you can stick on it, for when she’s bored on longer journeys. We haven’t put the table on it yet [...]

It seems I have been slacking a bit when it comes to blogging. You’d think I’d be updating this most days, seeing as my aim is to write about Freyja for when she’s older, to jot down snippets of our life, and make a note of when she first does things. However, I’ve been terribly [...]

This week has been interesting to say the least.
Freyja has been pretty much an angel – minus them naughty gummies of hers, which are causing her a lot of grief at the moment. She is finally sleeping through the night again though – ONLY when she has 4 solid feeds a day on top of [...]

Freyja is coming on leaps and bounds – it’s quite scary just how quickly time seems to be flying. It doesn’t seem 2 seconds since I was praising her for rolling over unaided, and smiling because she had learned to laugh. Now, she has learnt how to sit up. She hasn’t quite mastered the art [...]

Freyja has been an absolute delight lately, she really has. That sounds as though I’m saying that she wasn’t before. She’s always been a delight. But now, she’s sleeping through the night again, which is awesome. Although I thought that since she is sleeping through the night again, and we are getting proper, unbroken sleeps, [...]

It’s been a while since I wrote anything. It’s not because I don’t want to, or have lost interest – more that I struggle to find the time when I have nappies up to my knees and a baby who doesn’t like settling herself to sleep. Not to mention full time work on top of [...]

Freyja is very easy to settle off to sleep most of the time…We normally put her in the hammock at about 8pm (ish) each night, and, with the help of static, she normally settles quite easily. Tonight was not the case – we think she was hungry, so we fed her more – that seemed [...]
