2. You, Baby and I

You, Baby and I is a network created to organise events online and offline for parents and kids. We blog, we review and share our favourite brands.

Hi… I’m Shan, I’m 23 years old with a 20 month baby girl from Gauteng South Africa. I’m a Brand Evangelist/Blogger/Vlogger who loves sharing my views and discussing my favourite brands. I got married when I was 21 to an awesome guy =) from Sri Lanka, who shares the same interests as me. We are best friends, business partners, parents, husband and wife. We were lucky enough to be blessed with a baby girl named Kitana on August 2nd 2012.
On my blog, I will be honest and share my emotions as a young mother. I’m obsessed with social media, spa treatments, travel, fine dining and anything baby.

3. Baby Blog

Megan Kelly Botha is the author of both a Beauty Blog and Baby Blog.
I am passionate about all things beauty and fashion related and spend most of my time reviewing and trying new products before sharing my experiences here, on my blog.
When I am not blogging, I am recording tutorials while juggling life as a new mom, on a farm with too many dogs and a very adventurous cat by my side, to help with the 300 cows!

Facebook Twitter Pinterest

4.  Harassed Mom

Most days I am consumed by the mundane chaos of every day life with baby girl, a  toddler who has an obsession with climbing, a kid who lives in Never never land and an over achieving tween, a ADHD dog, an over stressed bird and a triathlon obsessed husband.

Facebook Twitter

5. Muse Lee Mom

I’ve just started blogging. It’s a bit of a mismatch of things, homeschool stuff will pop up as will photography stuff, home mom stuff and basically a bit of every, just like a good muesli.
I am a Cape Town based mom, with one boy, he is currently 5. He is a special needs boy and I homeschool him.
I am a photographer, children and families when I’m not being a mom 🙂

Facebook

6.  Becoming You

I’m a lifestyle & family blogger covering a variety of topics including travel, beauty, style, fashion, family, interiors, photography, inspiration! I work from home as an online writer in social media and am a mom of 2!

7. Pink Hair Girl

I am a home schooling mom to 3 kids. I maintain my sanity by knitting and blogging. I design knitting patterns and have a video podcast about knitting and South Africa.

Twitter Pinterest Instagram

8. Pregnant in Cape Town

Pregnant in Cape Town began as my pregnancy diary and grew into “& everything after” with the birth of my first child, Charlotte Rose in February 2014. I share my honest reflections on my journey through pregnancy and parenthood with others in blog posts and on social media platforms.

Facebook Twitter Instagram

9. Working Mother Warrior

Working Mother Warrior focuses on family and work issues as experienced by South African working mothers. The idea is to share information and act as an online support structure.

10. Mother in the Making… Naturally

A mother of two, a wife of one and a stuart of a million dreams. I love to sing, I love to write, I love to read and I love to dance. I love to run, I love to travel, I love to learn history and I love to ride… Bicycles, horses and fast cars. This is mere touching at what the world has to offer… Isn’t life a joy ride… but nothing compares to the great honor and responsibility of caring for a child. This is my journey to becoming a mother, day by day, in the most possible natural way that I can manage at any given stage. Being a mother is almost like trying to be more and more like Jesus… its something you are striving for daily but you just never arrive! Every milestone in a child’s life is a new road on the existing journey of becoming a mother… Come join me on my journey of raising a family in the most natural possible way that you can manage at the given time in your life… it’s the time of our lives!

11.  Just Four More Minutes

I live in a house with my husband Clint and our two sweet boys. Jesse is four years old and Jack is just over two. I am a busy, happy gal.

While I try to sneak in some quiet time, it is rarely quiet for long. As my leg is being pulled by a boy with chubby cheeks or while I am being ambushed by his big brother pleading with me to take him on a bike ride around the block, I often find myself longing for just a few more precious minutes. It’s a silly thing to do really – in the end, loving them fills my heart more than any project could.

What will you find on ‘ JUST FOUR MORE MINUTES ‘ ?

12.  My Gifts From Above

I am a recent stay (and work) @ home mom. My oldest has special needs (lack of oxygen at birth) and my other lil man is a year younger (born 6 weeks prem and 3 days before his oldest brother’s 1st birthday). 2015 has seen both the boys starting school which has been a major adjustment (mostly for mom #sadface).
I love to try new things and share them on the blog, from new products  to recipes and crafts (#pinterestobsessed).

Facebook Twitter Pinterest Instagram

13. My Boys Hood

A fun space created for my boys, Calin (10) and Sashin (3), sharing our adventures, building memories, and posting our favourite things from forts, cooking to books.

Facebook Twitter Pinterest Instagram

14. The Jozi WAHM’s Guide to Everything

A Johannesburg work from home mother of two shares her news, views and guidance on everything relating to work and play in the city of Johannesburg.

15. Mommy Says

At Mommy Says we want to provide all Mom’s-to-be with a website that will answer as many of their questions as possible.
We also want to provide a safe place for Mom’s to chat with other mom’s who are going through similar experiences. You don’t need to chat, you could also just read about other mothers’ experiences as we have a bunch of real life stories. We hope to help every mother out there not to just feel better about themself as a mom, but just to help them get through the day. Motherhood isn’t always easy and it helps a lot to have someone to chat to. Especially someone who knows what you are going through and who is going through the same thing. Who knows… you might even pick up some helpful tips and tricks.
A lot of women struggle the first few days. I hope to provide them with a shoulder to cry on so to say. Not only does the blog offer advice, information and a safe place to chat, I also want to assist when it comes to buying baby related products.
I will be posting articles on a couple of subjects that a lot people don’t want to talk about or sometimes don’t even know of and I feel that you should know about and make informed decisions when it comes to your baby, your body and your family.

16. Hands-On Moms

Hands-on Moms is a handy resource aimed specifically at South African moms and dads. We feature DIYs, news and articles relating to pregnancy, child development, breastfeeding and more!

Being a fledgling blog (Est. 2015), we are still in the process of filling our pages with content. But with new articles every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday – you are sure to find that we will be leaving the nest in style shortly.

17. Live Love Laugh

All about being a happily married mommy to two girlies, loving vino and chocolate, finding inspiration in beautiful quotes, doing arts and crafts, and my forever weight loss journey!

Pinterest Instagram

18.The Mommy City

Mommy blogger living in Cape Town with her husband and two toddlers (aka monsters). I started blogger after my daughter Paige was born as a way to keep connected with the outside world and share my experiences. Deciding on what to buy as a pregnant mom was overwhelming and often the purchase choices were expensive. I couldn’t find many South African reviews and on products that were available locally. By blogging I hope to help parents find good buys, hopefully save money and also find useful resources to make family life easier.

19.Coffee at Claire’s

An atypical parenting blog. We parent. We drink wine. And we do those things at the same time.

I am not your cup of comfortable tea. I shoot from the hip. I say it straight. It gets me into trouble, but it also got me this far.

My mother always told me to watch my mouth. And that having a blog and a twitter account is probably not the wisest idea considering I do in fact have a big mouth.

But I know who I am and it is time the rest of you know too. My name will be printed on the spine of many books.

I do not follow the herd. I stand alone. I am fiercely independent. I am a unique person in a world of simple copycats. If you need an antidote for generic – I am it. (Ok so I adapted this off my favourite restaurant menu, but big ups to OMB!)

I am…

A parent. A writer. A friend.

20.MamaMeeA 

Musings of a woman, wife, mother of 4, runner, blogger, bakestress, lover of sweets and chocolates, inhabitant of Joburg. I am here. I am alive, searching for the More that there must be.

While Nicky has been away playing tennis at Cradock I've been alone at home and it wasn't as bad as I thought. I opened up extra slots on a Friday night but the jokes on me as my regulars just moved themselves there. 😂
Mittens was confused and waited for Nicky. He is even sleeping in the donut beds I bought due to the cold. Finally.
Anyway I am glad to have Nicky back and let him play some airsoft on Sunday. He had fun.
Happy Monday everyone. How was your weekend?

Just to say, two weeks ago I didn't post any photos. We had an awful time in Uitenhage and for the first time actually skipped a round and went home early enough before it got dark.

Just remember that winning only comes after those tough times.

OH and my wall is finally up! Major victory!

If you are about to welcome a baby but your nursery or baby room is a complete mess, my latest blog post is for you.

Having everything organized before baby gets here is really going to help your peace of mind.

If you live in Joburg, @organisedbygina can help transform your baby's room into a place that is sorted and ready.

When life is good for your child it's good for you When life is good for your child it's good for you.

I really feel like we turned a corner this weekend.
After days of pain, Nicky had dental work done and he is no longer in pain. Such a nice emergency dentist who met us on Saturday afternoon to get things done. 
Also the airsoft gun is finally working!
After weeks of getting the charger sorted we realised the batteries weren't fitting in the gun. Thank God for Linda and her crew at @planet_paintball.pe who exchanged a part to make the whole thing work and let Nicky try it out with some other people. At no cost. We are so grateful.

So, you might be wondering why there is a hole in So, you might be wondering why there is a hole in my wall.

Last Sunday night we heard a crash but I thought it was from the other side. I thought I should look at my phone to see what was going on and saw missed calls from my neighbor.

Some guy had literally driven into my wall.

So while we have been dealing with fixing walls, insurance claims and a lot of follow up, what is a girl to do but take refuge in a chocolate desert?
