A Day In The Life Of The Alfino’s

You know when I have so much to say but don’t know how to say it properly I whip up a good old faithful “Currently” post.  Maybe it seems like…

As those who know me know, I made a sudden life style change a while back and lost a lot of weight. But what most don’t know, is why I…

Do you know what I realised this weekend? You never fully “own” this parenting thing.  Yes, some days are great and you totally feel like you got this parenting gig…

Oh internet, you funny thing. It’s probably quite obvious how much we love the internet around here, from blogging to online shopping to  watching hilarious Jimmy Fallon videos (can’t get enough…

I don’t normally post on the weekend, because like, it’s the weekend. But I’m breaking bad just once to share more of the pictures of Knoxs Shaun the Sheep party…

My Knox Yes, MY Knox. (You’ll have to fight me to call him your Knox – sorry future girlfriend, it’s just how it is around here.) There are so many…

Do you know what happens when I open my laptop at home (while the kids are awake)? Let me share – lsfkjsoijlksfh lseehfkk sifhlk hhhhhhhh  kkkkk ujha,kj,kjkj Followed by closing…

I’ve always wanted a reason to have a Shaun The Sheep party. In case you’ve never experienced the awesomeness of Shaun The Sheep – let me educate you quickly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43OWPI-Ychs…

Do you know what I’ve been waiting for since I became a Mom? A full nights sleep. 5 years later and I am still waiting… But that aside, things are…

Maybe the title is slightly misleading. Feeling blue is totally not about any emotional state around here (even though Knox seems to be coming down with something).  We are all…

Although it feels like I have been popping these pills for over a year, it has actually only been about 4 and a bit months of Roaccutane taking over my…

I took some photos at the park the other day. When I took them I thought they turned out pretty well – I was excited to post them.  Last night…

It’s been a while since I’ve done a post that doesn’t feel like an article – if you know what I mean.  Sometimes I focus so much on making sure…

There was a time (just a few years ago) where I could direct you to the closest baby changing facility in any shopping mall in Cape Town. I could also…

In case you thought parenting was easy, I’m here to remind you that it most definitely is not. Just the other day I was driving home and thinking about what…

If I can give you any advice about going to do a skin allergy test is that you shouldn’t do it. The second bit of advice is that if you’re…

How often do you go to the fridge, check what’s in there and start thinking of all these yummy things that you can make with the basics.  Until you look…

I have no words for this week, except maybe to beg the weekend to come back.  We had so much fun running around Eden On The Bay that I would…

Becoming a Mom is such a unifying experience. Obviously excluding those competitive momversations, put two women together (that don’t know each other) and if they have kids they are basically…

I am finally half way through my course of Oratane (the generic version of Roaccutane) and while it is rather obvious that I am in no way a “beauty blogger”,…

One thing that really stood out for me at the #CTmeetup was not only the budding of friendships and putting faces to twitter handles, but how amazing our sponsors were.…

What an epically crazy weekend. I have so many photos to go through, so many follow up emails to send, so many posts to write and so much busyness in…

You know when something really trivial happens and no one else notices, but to you it kind of feels like the World has stopped until you process those thoughts and feelings?…
