Hello Summer! I couldn’t be more thankful to experience again one of my fave UK weather, the summer. The vibrant colours of the flowers, the sun shining so bright and the freedom to wear lighter clothes are only few of the perks I love about this season. As they say that a bright world equates more to happy people. I say a big YES to that pretties! It’s been a few weeks since I posted another blog. I am soaking every warmth of the sun putting blogging on hold whilst this Mama enjoys the outdoors.😂 This blog post is all... Read More

Yes, the long wait is over for our Akyn’s ILR approval. The answer to our prayers were given to us last week and this is a five year wait in the making. I still can’t believe it has been five years now since I brought Mon and Akyn to join with me here in the UK. You’ll never notice how time flies when every moment spent together is full of happy moments as a family, isn’t it? Thank you Dear Lord for granting the settlement status for our baby here in this country. Too many grateful blessings came this month... Read More

Here comes the nicer weather pretty Mommas! Hello Spring! Sunny and warmer season like this never fails to elevate my mood. Another thing that excites me during spring is to say bye to the thick, heavy coat and welcome to the lighter more colourful clothes to wear in going out. I can’t wait to enjoy my favourite season of the year! That being said, our family of four started going out to enjoy nature. Amyndeen isn’t a fan yet of going out of the house because he loves more to chill at home.For sure he will eventually get used to... Read More

When I look at my two boys, they both look so little and innocent, however, their genuine love for us serves as the pillar of our strength to strive hard so we can give them a comfortable life. They might still be too young though surprisingly, they can show their willingness to help us in their own little ways is beyond anything great I can imagine. As little as they are but I can see how they are growing as our little confidants for a lifetime. They gave me the gift of a beautiful motherhood. Mon and I gained our... Read More

Happy fourth month Baby Amyndeen. Your chubby cheeks are just so irresistible for me not to kiss them. Daddy, Mommy and Kuya are all so happy seeing you grow everyday. We love your little voice now that we are starting to hear them from you. Those cooing, babbling and your laughter completes the joy in our home. We did start our day with a DIY photoshoot for our little Amyn’s fourth month. My three boys and yes I am the only queen at home.(LOL)🤣 Ordered this cake from Euphoria Cravings.Please click the link for their FB profile.You’re welcome. It tasted... Read More

Before the month of March ended, Akyn participated for the very first time to play a piece during the Hull Music Festival. My boy would normally join music festivals in Hornsea and Cottingham. This time, however, another music festival is added on his list of activities. Quite busy schedule Akyn?🤣 Mon and I are both willing to support Akyn in his piano endeavours as long as he is enjoying it. Thank you Miss Mila for your a hundred percent support to our little music enthusiast. Congratulations to Akyn for winning the first place on his solo piano category. Another blessing... Read More

I always say this in my previous blog post,” How fast time unfolds everyday!” It felt like only yesterday when we knew I was pregnant while we excitedly awaits for the double line to appear after I did my PT at home and now, our little Amyndeen is officially hitting his third month. If they say kids grow so fast, believe them because they really do. I am not going to lie how exhausting it is to look after a baby especially during their newborn stage when we Mums are also trying to recuperate whilst taking care of our little... Read More

I am intending to spend this year whilst I am on Maternity Leave to focus on my children putting a hold on everything that preoccupies my attention.

Also, a good to know info, UK is offering postpartum mothers a maternity leave for as long as a year to take before going back to work. Can you believe how... Read More

This is the part three of my blog post about our recent Maternity and Newborn/Sibling photoshoot with Nino Travagli Photography.

Happy sunny day everyone. It's seldom to have a very nice weather like this in the UK. Make the most of it while the sunshine last. Last Sunday, after my fourth shift coming from succeeding nights, my boys bought our second mini inflatable pool after they went to church. Our first pool was quite big. We decided to have a smaller size just enough for Akyn to save water consumption.😂Because I already took a shower upon arriving home after work that would mean only Akyn will have his pool time while Mami and Dadi does the grilling for our BBQ....

We've been waiting for our Monoy's special day to come because the three of us are off on his birthday. The feeling of waking up in the morning and not thinking of coming to work or having any strict schedule to follow is an absolute gem in our adulting lives Pretty Mommas.😊 Our Akyn woke up early to greet his Dad a happiest birthday. Our boy already planned what to do on this day. He wanted us to buy Daddy a present, enjoy strolling the city and to eat out together as a family. I couldn't agree more with his... Read More

Akyn's first half of the year is the busiest time with his piano endeavors because most of the music festivals he usually joins happen during those months plus he got his yearly performance to be graded so he can proceed to the next level of his piano competence.Yes, kids who study piano here in the UK are required to sumbit themselves for an exam before they can proceed to the next grade.With all those tasks mentioned, my Akyn never complained of being exhausted.He's always looking forward when Miss Mila,his piano teacher would come to start for another lesson.Sometimes, we would...

I was left with few things... Read More
