Introducing my baby boy 💙

My second born baby Malachi was born 03/24 weighing 7lbs 6oz. Labor was only 5 hours long he came super fast lol I didn't even have time to get any pain relief. Whew, I won't be doing this for a 3rd time. Now he's 9 days old and is 8lbs 6oz and is so handsome 😍

Themed cookies

Hi can anyone recommend a baker servicing the Crayford/ Sidcup / Dartford / Orpington side of Kent that can make themed cookies like these ones? Please drop their social media accounts so I can see their work.

US mamas, have you ever had your child’s bday at a park with a bounce house? Did you have to ask the park district in advance? Or get a permit?

I’m thinking probably 15-30 people will come. Bounce house. Few tables and chairs for food, maybe a tent cover in case of rain!

Birthday ideas

It’s far off, but I have no idea what to plan for my second’s first birthday as it’s mid December 🫠 For my first we went to the zoo as he was a summer baby and it was a great excuse to drag my whole family to the zoo 🤣 but our second is a winter baby, so anything indoor could also mean illnesses at that time of…

Birthday party theme

Alright, baby's 2nd birthday is coming and I love a good PUNny theme. It's going to be at a trampoline park (don't worry, it's happening in the toddler section). I'm thinking "Jump 2 it" for theme. Thoughts?
