SUMMER PLANS!!

Hey Guys!

So it's official, after next tuesday (an exam) I'm officially on SUMMER!

YAY!

I'm done and finished second year, to my surprise it went so fast i can't even remember what i did!

I've four months off until I'm in my final year, and these four months will fly by :(

So, I want to make the most of it.. That i'm PLANNING! Omg!

(Now, i do not plan! I've never been good at it, or it never goes my way!)

This Summer it will just be Kayden & I, and a toddler can get so bored and grumpy and hate being stuck inside - abit what Kayden is like at the moment ;) So i want him to enjoy this break as he is older and he's way more active than last year.

I'm blogging this whole planning experience so that i know myself what i have planned and what i have succeeded while planning (If that makes sense)

(Right.. to the point Aisling!!!)

This summer, I do not want to lounge around and do the same thing every day! I want to make the most of the time i have off college and with my little boy!

So, I'm going to list a few thing i want to achieve this summer.

• I want to blog more. (Toddler reviews, outings, ootd, week in pictures, random things that I've always wanting to blog)

• To do more crafts with kayden. I would love to do videos on how to make things. Toddler crafts, baby crafts, gift ideas etc. Maybe put them on youtube... MAYBE!

• Have more daily outings with kayden. I don't drive so it will be hard to go far away (Unless Pietro is off and we go as a family) but more walks and discoveries for kayden!

• Maybe vlog a few things. Now i know! some people don't see the point in vlogging or uploading videos to youtube. But I'm a momma, and i love taking pictures and videos! Just to have them as a keepsake.. I would love if kayden could look back and see what he was like.. they way he acted.. what he wore (Like boys care..) but its for me. not anybody else!!

• SEW! I want to get crafty and make things for myself, Kayden or even gifts! I've a relation who is due a baby and i would love to be able to sew a blanket or make something for the baby to keep! 

• This theory test has always been at the back of my mind.. or people keep reminding me about it (Pietro) but i should really do it, do thats my plan! Pass the theory test and get on the road! 

And.. I think thats it! If i have more goals/plans etc i will note them!

I really do hope i can do this. Some motivation is really needed!

Fingers-crossed!

RELATIONSHIP AFTER A BABY!!

Hey Guys!!

It's been a while since i've blogged.. College is catching up on me again! Only three weeks left and i'm on my holidays :) YAY!

So i thought i'd do a 'Relationship After A Baby' blog..

It took a while to get Pietro to come around to the idea of this blog... and we had no idea on what questions to ask ourselves!

But here goes...

Q1. How do you think our relationship is after having Kayden?

Pietro: I don't know.. I don't think we have changed really. We still get along great, but we can get under each others skin, we are around each other nearly everyday, and we know how to annoy eachother.. We are defiantly stronger than before, like as a couple! we still have fun, like were serious.. but not serious if you get me? 

Aisling: Well, i think we have got to be closer than before.. like the process of having a baby together, that we made... we bonded over it and no-one can take that away from us (bit soppy!!) we have more fun, defiantly with a baby as wired as Kayden! keeps us on our toes.

Q2. Do you get in fights on how to raise Kayden?

Pietro: No usually we agree on most stuff.. if it came up in the conversation either one of us would agree. its hard to explain, but we have the same idea on how to raise him.

Aisling: I wouldn't say fight.. like disagreements but we rarely have them.. and if we do, it wouldn't be about Kayden :)

Q3. What's the main topic that you disagree or agree on the most?

Aisling: We usually disagree on money, like if i wanted to go shopping.. Pietro would say no, i dont need clothes etc etc LOL like i get time to go shopping.. i online shop ;) HAH!! We agree on nearly everything.. not being fake, we just don't take things to heart, which is a good thing in a relationship!!!

Pietro: I actually can't remember anything we agree or disagree on.. its so little at the time that it just slips my mind LOL!

Q4. What's the plans for the future?

Aisling: Moving out of my parents house... probably wont happen anytime soon, but it will eventually! finish college, (Year and a half left!!!) maybe get more qualifications, would love to do makeup and photography! also maybe set up a little job in photography.

Pietro: Also move out.. maybe get a better job, one that will allow me to spend more time with kayden and that had good pay.. more money is always good!! LOL

I've ran out of questions :( .. if anyone wants to ask any questions on anything at all, comment below :)

But yeah, that's us!

CHRISTMAS IS COMING!!

Hey Guys!

SEVEN WEEKS UNTIL CHRISTMAS!

Yay!

I'm so excited, I love christmas!

Especially since Kayden is here now, I've something to look forward to! Even though he still doesn't understand just yet what christmas or santa is all about but it is still an exciting time!

This year, Santa is being told 'early' of what Kayden would like!! LOL

'He' has come prepared this year in getting Kayden's presents early!

In the other hand, christmas shopping has started!

I like to be prepared and not be completely broke at christmas so I'm spacing everything out and getting everyone decent presents! LOL

Kayden also has some presents to get, he's a little bit young to pick them out just yet, but we will think of a way to have Kayden pick and choose, to have his own little touch!

Last year was Kayden's First Christmas... and he slept all the way through it! 

So this year he will be more awake and running around the christmas tree, pulling things down and knocking things over! EXCITING!!

But hey! that's the fun with having a toddler! :)

I think i'm more exciting of taking them Christmas picture, with Kayden all dressed up. And of course of us. Myself, Pietro & Kayden!

Here's some pictures of Kayden's first christmas, he was about 4-5 months old.

 And this picture is of what santa got Kayden!

Baby's First Shoes!!

Hey Guys!

As most of you know, Kayden has been walking for about a month or two now.
(I wouldn't say walking... mostly running!!!)

I've been putting off getting him 'Proper' shoes for a while, as i just couldn't bring myself to spend that much on shoes that will only last him like 6-8weeks!!
He does wear shoes, But mostly Vans or Converse.. Which are the ones i usually wear LOL!

Now I know Vans and Converse are pricey too, but I seriously love the style! especially on Kayden! He looks like such a cool dude!

So, On Thursday, I decided he needed to get proper shoes.
Pietro & I headed to Kildare village. (an outlet shopping village)


We headed to clarks. Firstly we looked at the shoes (my opinion, there wasn't much there for boys)
Then, we got his feet measured.....
He is a 4 1/2 on one foot, and 5 on the other.
He did make strange the the woman, but i think it was just because she was touching his feet.. he has sensitive feet just like him mommy :)!

we were told to go for the 5, but honestly there were just huge on him, easy able to slip off so i went to get some 4 1/2 shoes, and they fit nicely!!
It was hard to pick a style, as he would be wearing them every day to get good use out of them!

The only bad thing was they were mostly browns and blues, where as the girls had so much more colours! (Grrr!!)
Now in saying that, i did like a few.. but I just didn't know if they would 'Go' with his clothes, like would they clash? or would they suit his style.


Finally we decided on a pair, they are very cute on him & kayden seemed happy walking around in them..

He had a little walk around in the newbridge shopping centre, I brought them harnesses for babies. They sound horrible, but personally they are a life-saver! Kayden tends to run everywhere now so it came in handy just so he wouldn't run off.
Everyone has their own opinion on them!

He is in his Pjs, so please don't mind that LOL, we had a Lazy Day yesterday as the weather was just terrible!

Unfortunately, we didn't get the first shoe photograph :( they don't do them in Kildare village!
I was upset about that but I'll take pictures with my canon one day just to have the memory :)!

He's been wearing them since and they seem fine, i think he has broken them in already which is good!
It's just a shame they will only last 6-8weeks!
