About Me

My photo
Last year I turned the big 3.0 and got married - I thought that was my milestone year. As it turns out, 2009 quickly overshadowed 2008 when my husband and I found out we were pregnant. I'm going to be experiencing everything for the first time as a woman and an expectant mother which is why I'm calling this my year of firsts. I'm senior editor for Marie Claire South Africa.

Trendy girl


Maya is going to be big on popular culture! Her auntie bought her the Zam-Buk t-shirt and her dad her first pair of sneakers. They're Puma - my favoured brand! You should see them! They look like Cabbage Patch sneakers, so soft and comfy. Still, she has to double in size before she fits into either. And I'm sure that's going to happen very soon at the rate she's growing.

Later that night

Yep, she's holding her own bottle now - when she feels like it that is. Or when I'm too busy talking or watching TV and forgotten to tip the bottle so she can get the last little bit out.
She whimpers/cries/protests when the bottle is done - I wonder if that's a sign that I should up it to 150ml now? I shall speak to her paed...

Bumbo

Our little sausage is just about ready for Bumbo. Hein pulled it out last week - we've been dying to use it - put Maya in it and she loved it! Her neck is still a little wobbly but stable so she's good to go. Can't wait to attach the tray for when she starts to eat solids.

Thanks granny and grandpa for the wonderful gift!
