Nature Inspired Knitting and Crochet – Day 23 of #30DaysWild 2017
Day 23 of #30DaysWild looks at the nature inspired knitting and crochet I am working on. Just before Robin was born I decided I wanted to try and knit and crochet some items for him, knowing that this would be a long term project as it takes me AGES to make anything! Crochet Animals I…
Nature Inspired Baby Sensory – Day 21 of #30DaysWild 2017
Day 21 of #30DaysWild is all about baby sensory and introducing Robin to things you may find or grow in your garden. We have been going to baby sensory classes for a number of weeks and every week is different. It is a great opportunity to expose your baby to new songs, activities, sights, smells,…
Nature Inspired Books for Babies – Day 20 of #30DaysWild
Day 20 of #30DaysWild is all about nature inspired books for babies. As you can maybe tell from my #30DaysWild posts this year I am very keen to introduce Robin Oleander, my 4 month old son, to nature at a very young age! But sometimes it is not always possible to explore the outdoors. So…
Hunting for Rainbows in the Garden – Day 7 of #30DaysWild 2017
Day 7 of #30DaysWild sees Mummy and Robin hunting for rainbows in the garden. Yet again the weather was pretty miserable today and although the rain was on its way out the wind had picked up and all the trees and plants were being blown around like crazy. It wasn’t the kind of day you…
Colouring In Bugs for Babies – Day 6 of #30DaysWild 2017
Day 6 of #30DaysWild is another indoor activity due to three things. The first being the miserable weather, the second a baby massage class in the morning, and the third a sleepy boy! I previously said that I wanted to try and make this month a sensory journey for Robin, my 3 month old baby…
The David Welch Winter Gardens at Duthie Park – Day 3 of #30DaysWild 2017
Day 3 of #30DaysWild was a trip out to Duthie Park in Aberdeen. Robin has been to this park a few times now, and one of the reasons this park is so great is that they have the David Welch Winter Gardens to wander around. These gardens are covered making it the perfect place to go…
Man Up Camilla and Go to That Baby Group!
Weeks 3 & 4 of Robin Oleander’s Life Let’s call these the transformation weeks. As mentioned in my previous post once Robin had hit 3 and a half weeks I decided it was time to get back in the car. Even if it was just to drive to the in-laws to say hello and get…
The Countdown to #30DaysWild 2017
It’s only just over 2 weeks until #30dayswild begins and I’ve been busy preparing! Once again I’ll be blogging about my daily random acts of wildness in June as part of the Wildlife Trust’s #30dayswild campaign. If you haven’t heard about the campaign before you can find out all about it on the Wildlife Trust…
The Early Weeks of Having a Baby and the Quest to Shower
The Early Weeks To be honest as I write this and try and cast my mind back to the early weeks it is a sort of blur, as if my mind almost wants to blank it out. Having my partner off for 3 weeks was great (it was a shame one of those was spent…
Say that again…I’m a Mother?!
The First Few Days of Being a Mother I won’t go into details about my labour but it was long and I ended up with an emergency c-section due to Robin’s heart rate decreasing, which to be fair I wasn’t really taking on board as I was off my face on gas and air. One…
Motherhood SOS – The Big Adjustment
As I write this Robin Oleander is having a nap. The thing about naps is that you never know if you will have 20 minutes, 1 hour or more. Robin turned 6 weeks yesterday and although I have been wanting to blog I have literally not had time since we brought him home from the…
