I will never turn my hand to beauty blogging, well, because I wouldn’t be very good at it. I own lots of make up but I’m no expert, I like a good shampoo and I like to keep gel nails on all the time but that’s as far as it goes for me. Continue reading

Charlie Byrne’s in Galway; the best book shop I’ve ever been to and where we get our favourite kids books
I’m a bit late in the day with this but I said I’d do a small post on Aidan and Sarah’s favourite books considering it’s World Book Day. Continue reading

Sarah in her Marks and Spencers number.

So today my fabulous friend and mammy of three boys Pamela, of Pamela Matthews Hair and Make Up shares her tips for a quick make up look for getting out in the morning with the kids. Time is always of the essence in the morning, whether you’re just doing the school run, dashing out to work or both.

The Coombe: My first kiss from my boy in The Coombe
Maternity hospitals and units in Ireland have hit the headlines for all the wrong reason of late. And rightly so. What some parents had to endure is unspeakable and I can’t begin to imagine their grief and their anger. So many families have been affected by adverse outcomes in our maternity services over the past number of years. I am not one of them. Thankfully. It’s all thanks to The Coombe. Continue reading

I hate doing the weekly shop. A lot of parents use the trip to the supermarket as a break but not me. I usually bring Sarah with me as she’ll just sit in the trolley and the picking the stuff off the shelves is the easy part. Continue reading

Since changing from blonde back to brunette last year I’m wearing my hair more natural. I don’t have much time in the mornings so blowdrying and straightening before work is just not going to happen anyway. Continue reading

So the kind folks at Heavenly Tasty Organics recently picked Aidan and Sarah to be part of their ‘Heavenly Tasters’ gang and last week a hamper full of yummy goodies arrived on our doorstep. My two munchkins have been slowly working their way through the delivery and their little thumbs are up! Continue reading
