Tips for going to the beach

Jun 15, 2014
It is summer and all of us are thinking how to make an escape to the beach, where you can breathe the smell of the sea and to relax on the hot sand with a cold drink.... mmm just amazing.

Everytime we took towel, cream and some food to eat, and a ball to play. Yes... this was 2 years ago, but now I have to think on 3 of us and not just 2. I don´t want to say that it is too difficult, but as well it is not as easy as when you go without children. Here I would like to share from my own experience what you really need to go to the beach, because first time I was thinking that I need to take all our apartment with us :D.

I prefer not to mention which one is more important and which one less, because each mum has to decide for herself what her child really needs.

1. Suncream 50SPF, are you or aren´t you agree, without this thing you just don´t have to go to the beach. Their skin is very delicate and it needs a lot of protection.

2. Towel, I think that even you won´t go without this to the beach.

3. Cap.

4. Swimsuite.

5. Food, water... a lot of water. Here you decide which food do you need. In my case I used to buy already prepared children food from the supermarket, as it is under vacuum and it lasts more, and here I ´m sure that after 3-4 hours he can eat this. You can take as well prepared food from home, but I don´t try as I don´t want to get disappointed at the time when he needs to eat this.

6. Inflatable bath.

7. Toys. My advice here is take just few toys, and little ones, so you won´t have a lot to cary on. In our case always Damian is playing with a plastic bottle, things that found there and very few times use his toys.

8. Parasol.

9. Dipers, wipes, and changing clothes. (I think that this is a kit, that you always have to take with you, not just at the beach)

10. Camera. You just want to save these great moments from his childhood :)

11. And last but not least... a lot... a lot of energy, your child would never get you bored. :)

Wish you´ll have a lot of fun with your baby.

First haircut experience

Jun 14, 2014
I know that I´m not too active on my blog, but no worries I have a lot of things to share with you my dear readers. Damian is growing up and a lot of interesting things are happening in our little family. I will try to share with you these moments as quickly as I can.

Today I want to share our first experience at hairdressing salon... here I would like to mention that the images below were taken almost 1 month ago when we were preparing our sunshine for his  first birthday.

As all things that you are doing for the first time, makes you feel nervous, this moment as well created ourselves a lot of emotions. We were looking for some time the place where to make the haircut, and we have chosen one that is special for children. The one that we´ve chosen has a lot of stuff that your child doesn´t get bored and enjoys the process. Maybe for a grown-up child it is just perfect, but not all of the children are similar, someone are crying more somone less. When we have chosen  this hairdress we´ve seen a lot of little children crying as they didn´t understand what was happening. So, we were prepared for the worse... but, I think in our case we were very lucky. I  want to say that it wasn´t just perfect, and Damian wasn´t staying at the same place, and of course, he got nervous... but as a brave man he didn´t cry.

The good thing is that in  these hairdressing salonsm specialized on children, they know how to make the haircut quickly and how to  make feel your child better. In our case they prepaired a special chair, that looks like an automobile, they have put cartoons and less than 5 minutes our child  was ready to go. It was so quickly as we were surprised of a good and quick service.

I want to mention as bigger gets your child as more he enjoys sitting in a specialized hairdressing salon. I´ve seen girls and boys who were very happy to spend time in there.

How was your first haircut experience?

1st of June - International Children´s Day

Jun 1, 2014
In many countries, including Moldova, where I am from, today is celebrated Children´s Day. It is a very beautiful tradition, as today you can see a lot of children playing in parks and as well a lot of things prepared exclusively for them on the streets in all towns of Moldova. I think, here in Spain today was a normal day, nothing exclusively important. But, we were thinking to make this day a little bit special, so we´ve opted to go on the place where always are a lot of children... guess where... of course an amusement park. So, we went to Tibidabo Amusement Park (www.tibidabo.cat), apart of a lot of attractions,  it  has a marvelous view over Barcelona, and of course we´ve done some pictures.

Damian likes watching how children are playing, he even can stop playing himself just to see what are doing children bigger than him.

Have a good day my darlings!!!
