Diaper bags can be angelic

They can be used as baby bags, with many pockets (4 outer side and 5 interior ones )including a special tissue /wipes pocket( loved that part),with adjustable shoulder strap that attaches easily at most strollers.

They are handmade with beautiful embroidery with swarovski crystals which can be personalized!!

They are practical and chic at the same time.

You can use them at the gym,at the pool /sea and daddy can carry them as well!

They come in lovely colors (loved the grey and black one)and the new trend is to use them at christenings!

Breastfeeding IS best

Undoubtedly breastfeeding IS the best money can't buy. As a firm believer and supporter of "breast is best" i had no doubt in my mind that breastfeeding baby no.4 would be a piece of cake, after all i am an "expert"! Guess what? Its been a nightmare, just doesn't seem to be going smoothly this time round. Between cracked nipples and bad mastitis, twice, i have come close to giving up but i am giving myself another chance. Sometimes i feel its ironic that all magazines, books and brochures portray such a perfect image of breastfeeding. Its not always a bed of roses, for anyone out there going through a bad time, it does get better, eventually! Some ideas that might help are: nipple shields (found mothercare ones to be the best), Medela nipple cream (amazing stuff), hot waterbottles and hot baths. Good luck xxx

Birthday parties....

Birthday parties,theme selection,party favors,party outfits.....they never stop

Mums don't have the energy,the imagination and the time to spend hours in the shops to choose the right party favor and taste every cake in the market and arrange the perfect party! WAIT!Nothing is as bad as it seems,you just need to be organized.

So let's get things started.

•Where and when?
•Who will be invited?Invitation should be handed out and SMS should be sent.
•Catering selection if at home,menu selection if not at home.
•Theme selection-cakes,party favors,outfit if needed,any special decoration
•Entertainment for kids

Now application of the above!

My sister had her kids birthday party last weekend.
The party was at her house
Theme was APOEL champions league and Micky mouse.
Grandmothers made some homemade goodies.
We ordered the rest of the things from Pandora bakery :nuggets,mini burgers and real potato ships for the kids,sandwiches in mini rolls,quiche,savory,and mini lava cakes (my rating was 10/10 for them) for the adults.

Dj Andreas Lambrou was responsible for the entertainment of the kids and he did a wonderful job.

Now the the birthday cakes! The Micky mouse one was a chocolate fudge cake and the round Apoel cake was a red velvet cake.Both were delicious made by my friend Vanja Radivojevic-Savva http://www.emmaslunch.com

And of course the "football"cake pops -party favors, which idea by the way I found great and the kids loved the idea of getting a personalized treat on their way out.Vanja made these as well.


As simple as that and with no much effort the kids had a wonderful birthday party.

Rock-a-buy baby

Rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop

When the wind blows, the cradle will rock

When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall

And down will come baby, cradle and all

Baby is drowsing, cozy and fair

Mother sits near, in her rocking chair

Forward and back, the cradle she swings

And though baby sleeps....



Beaba Baby Sitter Up & Down

A unique concept the allow babies to fully participate and keep close to their parents whatever they are doing.

Three reclining positions and four height postions means that the chair can be at soft height, table height or even work surface height, increasing a child's view and sense or security. It also prevents the dangerous temptation to place babies in bouncers on top of work surfaces or tables.

The gentle self rocking motion has a easy to use brake for extra stability. Soft padded seat has a head support and removable washable cover. Suitable from birth.

Mosquitoes leave our kids alone

Every day I take a long walk with my kids by the river near my house.The big problem about the walk are the billions of mosquitoes in the air that end up in our mouths when talking to each other:(
So while shopping around,I came across with this incredible clip that comes in different bright colors that is actually a pocket that clips on the stroller or even on the cot with pellets that diffuse a blend of 7 essential oils extracted from plants which naturally protects from mosquitoes.They are chemical free suitable for young children and pregnant women and they really smell nice:)
They come also in wrist bands which are lovely to wear everyday.
Check this out and cry out:" mosquitoes leave our kids alone!" http://www.parakito.com/
