During the rare heatwaves, my little babogs always seem to go on a food strike, and if I’m honest it stresses me out something terrible at times. I’ll try anything to keep them snacking, cool and hydrated, and these little healthy snacks seem to be working a treat. (more…)
The past month has been awful here on the sleep front. I’ve broken down in tears too many time to count in recent weeks due to utter exhaustion. Yesterday Joe and I agreed without argument (for a change) that it was time to give Kadie her own room – in hope she would settle better at night. Wishful thinking but we are at the stage now that we just need some sleep… (more…)
Whether you’re a blogger or a small business maintaining a blog is a lot of work. I get asked regularly how I do it, how I keep my reach, how I get to review all the cool stuff with three babogs and a bump, and I always reply that it’s because I love blogging. It’s more than a just a hobby. I started this blog with nothing and built it with the help of google, other bloggers, conferences and Facebook groups. Blogs are not built overnight, My Little Babog just celebrated it’s second birthday and only in the past year has it really kicked off and it continues to grow daily.

Lads, I have a new obsession and it’s not even 24hrs old. I’m piecing together my hospital bag over the next month and it got me thinking… Wouldn’t it be cool if there was a newborn nightdress type thing, and well there is. Thanks to my trusted Irish Parenting Blogger pals, namely www.theclothesline.ie. They exist in the name of bundlers. (more…)
Been a grand couple of weeks. Some nice weather, bit of a breeze to keep cool. Joe even made me a washing line… He told me he’d get me one of those wind-up yokes. (more…)
The third child, fourth pregnancy, and I am still learning daily. Not one day has gone by that I haven’t learned something new about pregnancy or parenting.

Mammy guilt is well and truly alive, and it has really hit me in the past week. My first-born had me all to herself, and now she’s six and I’m pregnant for the third summer in a row. Last year I pushed myself, although a lot easier with just the one babog. We were up and out on mini adventures, exploring, now I’m overwhelmed with the constant needs and wants that come with parenting and small children.

My toddler is mad, fact. I really don’t know where I got him from. He’s a walking, non-talking mischievous little bugger. I keep saying kids will be kids to myself but my toddler has his own set own rules that he lives off. It’s his way or the highway… (more…)
