Aidan

Aidan is our young son, he’s our dream. You can read more about how he came into our lives here. He’s clever, funny and at some point everyday he drives me mental.

As one of the (extremely lucky, like omg how did that even happen?!?!) Top 5 chosen from the Kidspot Ford Territory Top 50 Bloggers competition I’m required to write four blog posts on specific topics over the next few weeks. Who knows, if I do a good job I might get to drive this bad [...]

Last month we added two more peeps to our family unit. Steve thought Aidan was more than ready to have his first pet, I on the other hand disagreed and knew that within a few weeks they would become my pets to care for. I sent Steve and Aidan out for dog food one Saturday [...]

Yesterday my Grandparents “Poppy” and “Grandma” (my father’s parents) came to visit us for the afternoon. We hadn’t seen them since September and Grandma had been quite ill. Even though we only live a few hours drive away, Aidan’s constant sniffles and colds made it difficult to visit for fear of making her condition worse. [...]

Aidan has been in the nude all summer, especially at bedtime so with winter around the corner we headed to the shops to find some funky new PJs. As soon as Aidan saw these brightly coloured dinosaur flannelette PJs at Target he jumped up and down like he’d won the lottery, it was so cute [...]

My parents live in a beautiful place only 3 hours away from our house. Every Thursday night we look at each other, mentally doing our accounts and working out a timeline in our heads. Could we manage to steal away for a few days and give Aidan some downtime with his Grandparents? Could we manage [...]

Sponsored by Nuffnang  Last week I shared that BigW had sent me a $100 gift card to buy Aidan some new clothes (keep reading for the chance to win one for yourself!) and that we had gone out and picked up two spunky, affordable outfits that will see him into the cooler months ahead. What [...]

Rough & Tumble BigW Style

Sponsored by Nuffnang Last week was rough, actually the last few weeks have been. Our little family is adjusting to changes, we’re growing, exploring and quite often we’re tired too. I’m still getting used to my domestic routine and spending more time with my camera, Steve’s trying to deal with new work challenges and Aidan [...]

Aidan started going to swimming lessons again with Steve as his support person. He was nervous at first but as soon as he saw the water he was so excited. Steve was a little nervous too as he’s not a great swimmer but you couldn’t tell. You couldn’t wipe the smile off their faces. It [...]

Aidan and I play all day long but there is one particular part of the day that gets us both pretty excited. After watching his favourite show on ABC2 “Mr Maker” (think along the lines of “Art Attack”) we try and recreate whatever he did that day. If I don’t have the supplies we still [...]
