My Blog

This is *my* blog but it is not *mines* if that makes sense. This blog is set up for a different purpose than my other blog and it is not where my heart really lies. If this blog was to vanish tomorrow and i would be ok with it but if my other was lost i would be heartbroken.

For over 4 years now i have been blogging and recording my children's life .

I have blogged when happy , blogged when sad and when so tired i could barely sleep. My blog was my lifeline during the month when my daughter was 3 and fighting for her life. I even blogged when i was in labour with my son.

Someday i want to turn my blog into a book - not one for publishing but one for me to give to the children .

Synchronization Of Us is my real baby and the one that will still be going long after this one has been forgotten.

Babyroyale Luxury Blanket

Product Babyroyale luxury baby blanket:

Available fromBabyroyale.co.uk , Hello Baby

bamboo_blanket_main

Product Description – Luxurious organic bamboo baby blankets that combines a unique blend of natural fibres that are perfect for babies skin . They are 70% Organic Bamboo, 30% Organic Cotton and Naturally antibacterial and Naturally hypoallergenic . They are 90cm x 75cm and available in 3 different colours.The blankets are also environmentally friendly and 3 x more absorbent than cotton


My thoughts – I can not fault this blanket at all , it is so soft and feels lovely . I could easily imagine wrapping up a little one in it and not worrying about the irritating them. They are a little more expensive that what you would expect to pay for a baby blanket but definitely worth it . They are well made and i think will last for years.

Kids Thoughts - They loved it , "it is sooooooooo soft " said both the girls - the only thing they complained about was it being blue and for boys ...not girls.

Would i buy it myself ? - Yes i would considering buying this for future babies (if i was to have anymore that is) . I think it could make a lovely gift for expectant parents to.

Coming Up

I cannot think of the next few months without feeling excited and happy . I have so much coming up and many of them are MY THINGS. Things that are just mine and only about me . I almost feel overwhelmed just thinking about it but at the same time i cannot wait.

These things include

- My Doula course
- PCBF the first Scottish blogger conference , the after party and a night spent in a hotel ALL ALONE
- Becoming a Community mum (breastfeeding councillor ...hopefully) . The training course starts beginning of May
- The weekend Doula retreat (a full weekend away with no kids or hubby)
- Finishing my first year at the Open University and sitting my exam.

Of course on top of these i have the preparations for Eilidh starting school , Rebecca's 6th birthday and hopefully a trip to Blackpool for it . Also have a good friend due her 2nd child the end of May (a boy so Ru finally has someone to play with yeah) and i cannot wait to get some snuggles.

The next few months are going to rock :)
