Things I Am Loving Lately ( September Edition )

 

Have you noticed only 3 months left for the  year end.  I feel like just Ganeshotsav starts and now there are many more  festivals are on the way.... time flew so fast !

---------------

This post may contain affiliate link which I use and love ! ( more about privacy here

------------------

Grateful to the all good and bad moment for the entire 8 months of the year. The grief of my father, an emotional rollercoaster, getting up a new routine, changing life in many more ways and Love from the family I am getting.



Over the years I leared when you acknowledge the small things you can feel self love and radiatie the same love. I also learnt to  accept the things the way they are coming to me rather than indulging on my self expectations. 

For 2 years I have been completely immersed in motherhood not having "My Life",  Like pregnancy and then postpartum I can't remember when was the last time I was ready with all make up and all (lipa poti )😆


This festival season I wanted to take care of myself first. Because  my daughter asked several questions like why you don't dress up like other moms? Why is your hair so messy?  

Finally taking this on a serious note  I changed my wardrobe. I haven't wear a suit probably for the last 3 years. This time I have it in my wardrobe and now I am loving it.


Things I am loving lately September Edition: 

Kurta Set from  the brand Klosia .




This one with Floral Prints and festive too.



And this black one too with dupatta. All these are on deal and below INR 1000 /



Because I realised I like to wear only cotton and comfortable clothes irrespective of the trend😆 Comfort is my new fashion. I had 3 sets and now wanted to stock up almost 5 colours. Are you a suit person or Western one ? 



  The Date Syrup 



As a toddler mom I have to cook variety of baby food and I don't use sugar for them. In the same way I am trying to minimise my sugar consumption too. 



Earlier I used to make date syrup at home. But now with increasing task it is better to purchase store bought. I have been using this from last 3 months and I love it. It is natural sweetener with no added sugar. I am adding it in halwa, porridge, oats and to my Coffee too. 


Coffee



Though I am a tea lover but constant nagging of Mr. Hubby I have decided to lower my tea / sugar intake. Generally I had 4 cups of tea ☕ in whole day - With snacks always. You know breastfeeding moms are hungry in every 2 hours. I want to get rid of this habit. So I am slowly switching to Coffee. ( I know this is also not healthy 😜) 




One mug of coffee like the star bucks version at home and actually I am full . I didn't even drink 1 cup of tea at all. 

I am loving it.



  Trolly suitcase Bag 


I like it specially for light weight and 28 ltr capacity. It is laptop friendly too. We are currently not having any suitcase which fits our family clothes. Instead of keeping multiple bags I choose this one. I love it because we can piles up many clothes 😜


   Hair dryer 


Washing hair and drying it is a major task on my to do list. You know with a toddler taking out time for a bath is difficult. And then drying hair is another task. Earlier I don't like to use hair dryer instead I like to dry up hair naturally under fan or in sun. 




But life lately is full of chaos. Switching to this hair dryer make me less irritate. It is also helpful to dry up my daughter curly hair which took lots of time generally.


   The Journey through the time ( 7 to 12 years age ) 


This is our new edition to my daughter shelf. She already read the series of Stilton. Now she wanted to more and more .

Currently it is her favourite book . And mine too. ☺️


And I am reading the Harry Potter Series and No drama Discipline.

Gratitude List for the months of September: 

Reading : Our reading is increasing . Our means my family, yes. I read aloud to my twins, my daughter is reading now her books apart from study and me trying to read at least 5 to 6 pages.  


Writing a little bit on a daily basis for my blog. It keep me sane and happy.


Learning new skills from you tube tutorial regarding my blogging. I never took it seriously because I love to write from my heart and not from the SEO parameters. Still learning 😆


Dressing up,  Off course anyone love to dress up. But currently taking care to dress up properly. So that keep dress handy and ready in short organised way ,,,😜


Our new home : It is a blessing. I feel it is safe and full of positive vibes. My daughters are more happy and mostly we have giggles throughout the day. 


Food : And off course having food on our plate. This is basic but having home made food is also a blessing. Bless that I am able to cook and have a healthy meal thrice a day.

9 to 12 Months Baby Food Chart

Having a baby in 9 to 12 Months is exciting. The way he holds tiny things in his hand and puts them in his mouth melts mom's  heart. Then our food journey starts. We wanted to give variety of foods. After scrolling reels on baby food I am also tempted to make the same food and feed my babies. But you all know what works for others does not necessarily work with us. Especially our Indian baby takes a long time to eat the food compared to the screen baby 😉 Right?





I have an older daughter who is 10 years old. I have gone through the solid phase, picky eating phase and all. I have gone through the mommy- guilt too. So this time I am not getting any stress. 

Sometimes we flow with the social media unknowingly and sometimes withdraw, did this happen with you?



I took some ideas but not implemented yet 😂 rather than sticking with mom instinct and our traditional food. Yes! I didn't start any liquid food rather than Ragi Malt. Apart from that I stick with the mushy structure of food like dal, apple, pear, rice, and all. Not given anything in puree form except soup that too mostly chicken soup, mutton soup, tomato soup and carrot soup. 


PS : Pixabay 


I am sharing a real food chart .... Ha ha you can say chart because I am into a habit of feeding them every 2, 3 hours instead of giving everything at the same time. Because they tend to throw more and eat less. Pheww you know mom, this phase is quite exciting and cleaning is more irritating. 

These can be start 7 months onwards too

Breakfast : 

Mostly, Ragi Malt with variations like

Okay.

What do you need to have daily food eating habit?

Now you will have to have plates, spoons and high chair, right. 

I have plates. Silicon one so that my twin not able to throw it 😭. You can find it here very reasonable and pocket friendly.

And if your budget is more 😜 then you can have a high chair too. 

I like this spoon set specially designed for babies. Don't forget to check this here. I am very happy with this set because my twins are more interested to eat fruits with this fork. 


Disclaimer: I am not a nutritionist nor pediatrician. Sharing my experience as a mom so that if you are a new mom, you should not stress too much about feeding your baby. 

All these food items consume by us too. So trying to make variation and without stress. Make only one meal which goes well with all 



Points to remember:

👶Baby sometimes eat very well. Somedays only eat lunch / dinner. And that is okay. They eat as per their body requirements. As a mom accept it and do not force them to do anything. 

👶 Try to minimise your breastfeeding as much as possible. Instead give them snacks, water, juice or their favourite snacks.

👶 Try to keep a long gap say at least 3 to 4 hour between each meal. Then only they can have good intake of food.

👶 Give them floor time, play time. The more they will play the more they will be hungry.

👶 Play with them, run with them and keep them on the floor always. 12 to 15 months babies are in the walking phase so do allow them to explore. Let them be their own. And so they will get tired and will eat food. 

👶 Do not give water during the meal time because they will drink more water and hence will eat less. (My experience: my babies will play more with water and less eating)

👶Do not offer biscuits. I can say do not eat biscuit or any junk food in front of them. They will be eating healthy food if you eat healthy food. 

👶 Do not get tempted through social media. You can have ideas, knowledge but do not compare your baby with screen baby. 


Reminder to Mom's 

Do not compare your baby with other babies If your baby is gaining moderate amounts of weight and not frequently sick that means your baby is healthy. No matter how thin or how chubby he/she.

Do not take a stress of anyone's comments. People are there to comment unnecessary things always. So do not take stress.


PS : Pixabay 

Hope this will help you. If not then please consider sharing it with newly moms. This is realistic baby food chart and basic food items which are healthy and fulfilling too. It provides necessary nutrition as everything is homemade. Try to include most of vegetables as you can. 


Questions for the day 

What is your go to food as a start of your kids BLW journey?
