Discover the Courage in You

My favourite part about motherhood is helping Taliyah grow and shaping her into the little queen that she is. One of the ways that I do that is reading to her. So I was extremely happy when we were gifted this book 'Discover the Courage in You' by MyBookHeros. About MyBookHeros My Book Hero's books …

Wriggle Wrestle

One of my favourite past times with my daughter would be the wriggle wrestle we go through every nappy change. I thought it was cute when she started rolling, then thought awwwwh she's getting more mobile when she started crawling. Now she full on runs away and I find myself chasing a tiny little human …

Wash day through the lens

We love a review of hair products as it's a prominent part of us. These last few months we have been using the Aunt Jackie's Fabulous Curls & Coils range. I was delighted that they had a range for little girls as well as adults. Meaning the products are milder and more safe on young …

Define mother A woman in relation to her child or children Bring up (a child) with care and affection (Especially as a title …

No mooing around

Did you know that humans are the only mammals that consciously give their young another mammals milk as opposed to their own?My pet peeve is being asked how long will you be breastfeeding for? when will Taliyah stop drinking boob milk? when will she start drinking real milk? If by real milk you mean cows …

Curls, Coils and Kinks

I constantly get a lot of questions asking about Taliyahs hair care routine and what I use, how I manage it, how she lets me braid it and so forth. I have done a few posts previously about her hair but as she grows so does her hair and more work is needed for her …

One year on

Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! What’s all the excitement about? Well a bit overdue but last month we officially hit our 1 year mark of blogging and what better way but to celebrate with a little site revamp.  We officially have a logo which I made myself , yes I’m back with my creative …

The Naked Truth about Having a Baby

So last month I had the pleasure of attending my first ever book launch. Amazing to say the least and sum up every aspect about it. Author, mother of 3 and wife Jernine R wrote an amazing book called ‘The Naked Truth about Having a baby’. The title alone spoke to me as it really …
