OCTOBER ROUND UP


^ Here are my top 9 pictures for October ^

I've just had the most stressful ordeal trying to order Jordan's birthday but I think I've sorted it and I am going to write this blog post in hopes that my stress levels lower.

October has been a fab month. Although not my favourite month, I do love the change in weather and the leaves turning from green to orange in the trees. Lets go into details about why these are my top picks.

  1. The first photo is of Sydney and I holding hands. It's the first photo I have of us like this and it's one of my favourites.
  2. The photo of Jordan and Sydney, What can I say? They are my two favourite people in the whole entire world. This picture melts my heart.
  3. Sydney as Dracula. Totally adorable and definitely worth the £8 it cost for the costume! Tesco have some of the best little boys clothes ever!
  4. Sydney and his Great Grandparents, taken very early on in the month but I absolutely love this photo! He was looking up at them both and smiling. It was a very special moment. Also note, that Sydney is named after his Great Great Grandfather.
  5. Petted Lip - the infamous petted lip photo. He done this after Jordan gave him a kiss! The video is adorable and it's up on my instagram search me, @leighsylvia
  6. My First Hallowe'en also the month he turned 2 months! Had to get a picture with both events.
  7. Autumn Walks - This day was beautiful, it was cooler and we walked around the park. Very special and I even got a stitch!
  8. All happy in his homemade snuggle blanket made by Grandma!
  9. In his Bah & Tweet dribble bib, who on the last day of October chose Sydney to be a Brand Representative, so so exciting!
So that's it my 9 top pictures! Thanks for reading!

SYDNEY TURNS 2 MONTHS OLD!

Today our little boy Syd turned two months old!


I honestly can't believe he is two months old already, time seriously flies when you have children. He has brought so much happiness to our lives. I am so excited for the future, watching him grow and learn. It's true what people say you know, you watch your child like they are the television, you can't keep your eyes off them.  I am bad for that, I just look at him and my mind fills up with tons of thoughts, number one being: I can't believe I grew him for 9 months, he is so perfect.

It's not all happy moments though, the past couple days have been hard. Jordan has come down with 'man flu' (arguable, I think it's just a cold) and inevitably Sydney has developed it. He's been sneezing  and coughing nonstop. Last night he was up every 2 hours which is very unlike him - he's normally up twice - He just wanted cuddles and after 10 to 15 minutes he was back asleep again. There's not much you can do for them at this age, you just have to let it pass.

The cold however never stopped us taking our 2 month pictures, the three above are my favourite of the bunch.

  • The first one is just a picture of him sneezing but very apt for how he has been feeling the past couple days
  • The middle one is him blowing bubbles which he has learned how to do over the past couple weeks and now doesn't stop!
  • & the last one is when he dropped the card onto his face, he was holding it and then decided nah, not going to do that anymore.
The next stop for us is to get this little guy to baby classes, I've looked up some of them around us online and think now is the time to start since he is taking a lot more in and not just lying still anymore. Also will be good for me to get out the house and socialise when Jordan goes to work.

Hope everyone is well! Speak to you all soon!

ALL ABOUT US

Hi there, I'm new to this blogging thing so be kind to me! I've been thinking about what the first post on this page should be, Do I just go straight into a specific topic I'd like to talk about? or do I start with sharing what has happened this week? ... Neither. This first post is going to be all about us, our little family. Well here goes, this is us...





We are a family of three, living in Scotland. There's Jordan, he's the oldest of us all (23) he likes to collect vinyl, go to gigs and cook. My names Leigh, I'm 22 and I've always been fascinated by the internet, in particular YouTube. I love the wide range of communities it has, I started watching Shaytards back in 2010 and YouTube has sucked me in ever since. Then we have our beautiful baby boy Sydney. He was born in August 2016 and is the best little baby ever! Yes I know, I have a biased opinion but he is!

I've been playing with the idea of setting up a blog for years and Jordan's embarked on a Music Blog so I feel like it's my time... finally! You can expect a variety of different posts but they will mainly be baby and family related however I may throw in the odd beauty or favourites posts. I'm hoping to start up a YouTube channel so will connect the two together, so some posts may have a video at the bottom! I hope you stick around! Please follow our Blog. 

Thanks so much for reading
