Miyah’s 10 month update.
Babies, Child, growing up, mblog, mumblogger, mumblogs, Mummy and lifestyle blogger, Mummy blogger, Myself, Pblogger, photography, UncategorizedHow is my baby 10 months old today? It only feels like yesterday I welcomed her into this world.
Here is what Miyah is doing at 10 months old.
Words;
Miyah has started getting very vocal from our last update- She now says ‘dada’ ‘mama’ & ‘nana’. Most of these are followed by them repeated 10x over. ‘Mamamamamamama’ but none the less, she is saying it! She is also very good at screaming and making grumbling noises to show us when she wants attention.
Eating;
Miyah has grown considerably when eating. From having 1 to 2 meals a day, she is now eating all the bloody time. We have started introducing her with a lot more finger food now and she is exploring a whole new world. She has started having more dinner’s with us than jars and at the moment, sandwiches and bread sticks are her favourite along side quavers! I have started to try and give her more healthier snack to get used to them as well. This includes peppers, cucumber, carrots etc. She is loving her food and is always stealing mine or Michaels!
Physical;
Miyah is now on the go, all day, everyday. She just doesn’t stop. She also walks around the furniture to get to where she wants also, this progressed to when she is on her hands and knees, to pushing her feet up and going on her hands and feet. So i really don’t think it will be long before she tried to walk. She now has 3 teeth (2 on the bottom and 1 on the top) with one on the way down at the top too. This has caused so many problems in her sleep! But non the less, she is changing more and more everyday, and getting more and more like her dad. Miyah is still quite dinky so doesn’t look her age at all.
Adjustments;
We have now had to look into getting decent cupboard locks and moving all little things out of her way. Everything she finds- is in her mouth. Gotta have eyes on the back of your head! We have also had to put her toys in a different way in the front room so its easy for her to grab!
Sleep Routine;
Oh my goodness, where do i get started? Since my last update (8months) Things have changed a LOT! Miyah now wakes up to 10 times a night and sometimes gets up for hours before going back off. I know it’s down to her teeth but its draining me! She starts to get tired and wingey around 4pm and we try our hardest to keep her awake but come 5, she is a nightmare! Screaming the house down and being a pain, to the point where the moment she is picked up she is drifting off so her sleep is all over the place and that means mine is too.
My next update, will be when she is 1 years old… how scary is that?
Until 1 years old,
My New Years Resolutions.
Babies, mblog, mumblogger, Mummy and lifestyle blogger, Mummy blogger, Myself, UncategorizedHAPPY NEW YEAR 🎊🎊🎊
From our first Christmas is our first ‘house’, to the birth of Miyah, to moving and getting the pet I’ve wanted for 4 years… 2017 has been a crazy and I have made so many promises to myself that next year I will change a few things. As it got closer to 2018, I had a few things i decided I would like to achieve, and i’m going to share them with you now!
Savings.
By the end of 2018 i would like to have a decent amount of money saved back for a rainy day and some money in my Help To Buy ISA. All i have wanted for a very long time is to make sure my children would have something to fall back on if the worst was to happen. This year- i plan on achieving to start that.
Slimming World.
This time next year, i would love to reach my goal weight with slimming world. I started sharing my journey with you all and i will carry on to do so. I hope to loose around 2 stone in a year.
Driving.
I am hoping to have passed my practical test this time next year. I passed my theory test first time and when i took my test before i failed. That knocked me back so much and i have been terrified ever since. This is the goal im most determined to get.
Organisation.
In the new year, i would love to be able to keep a track of things and stick to appointments. This has been really hard for me in the past because of my anxiety. For Christmas my mother got me a calendar that i can organise everyone’s days with. So far i have written everything in January including my other half’s work diary. I would love to get better at this, so i don’t miss out on anything important.
do you have any goals for 2018? let me know below!
until next time,

The past week, has been up and down.
The start of the week, i had a good couple days. Monday i was a bit off and didn’t eat very much. I don’t really know what was up. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday was brilliant, on plan and walked lots. I felt great. Friday was good up until the slimming world meal! I had such an amazing time with all of us and then me and my mum went out for a ‘few’ drinks. Saturday, Sunday and Monday turned into a bit of a ‘eat shit’. I didn’t really go over board i just ate crap.
I still did lots of walking and didn’t over eat as such.
Now we are off till the 28th- i still want to try and stay on plan as much as i can but as it’s Christmas…. No Promises lol.
Weigh In- -0.5lb. I’m happy with that, especially after the shitty days.
Total Weight Loss- 10.5lbs.
Until the 28th!
