Hi! My name is Ruby and I am now 7 months old! I weigh 9 kilo and I wear a size 00 and 0 but size 0 is a little bit too big.  I am sitting up like a big girl now and eating solids.  I love apple, pear and berries but I hate broccoli. My favourite TV show is the Wiggles. I can say Mum and Dad now.  My favourite people are my Mummy, Daddy, Nanny and Aunty Claire.  I am rolling around now and Mummy almost cant keep track of me! Just wait until I'm crawling!

They're here! Splash Liquid Lipsticks are finally here! My unbiased opinion is that these are amazing! So far I only have 'Smashing' which is a gorgeous orange based red! <3 As you can see, 'Smashing' suits the lightest of girls to the darkest of girls. But a few people have found that if you have an 'in between' skin tone it doesn't suit as well. These lipsticks have a thick formula which some people have compared to the formula of Jeffree Star's liquid lipsticks. Be aware that because they are a thicker formula, they do take about an hour to dry. But once they dry, they are not going anywhere. These lipsticks are priced at $35 or 3 for $94. But........This month only, buy 3 liquid lipsticks for $94 AND receive a free Lip exfoliator pen worth $27.50! You can find this month's special under 'kudos' on my website. https://www.youniqueproducts.com/RachelChadu2603/party/5084621/view

I became an Independant Younique Representative in June and I am officially in love with the products! I don't love them because i sell them, I sell them because I truly love them and believe in them. Today, I'm going to do a review on the amazing Liquid Foundation which I am wearing in the above selfie. This is truly a liquid foundation. It literally feels like liquid but gives great coverage even though it is by no means a high coverage foundation on it's own. It goes on liquid and dries to a powder, matte finish but is in no way cakey.  Pair the foundation with our Glorious Primer and Liquid concealer for the perfect finish. I honestly give this product a 5 out of 5 and would still give it this rating if I wasn't selling it because I truly love it <3 Contact me to order <3 In the selfie I am wearing: Primer Foundation in 'Organza' Bronzer in 'Sunset' Cream Eyeshadow in 'Hopeful' Eyesha...

I am so slack with this blog! But i thought it was time for Miss Ruby's 14 week update! My little girl is now weighing 6.3kg! She's grown so quickly! 66cm long! She's so big now but she still feels like a newborn! Love my little munchkin <3 

I am so sorry I have been so missing in action! But I had a baby! YAY!  Ruby Elizabeth Chadu was born at 3.17am by emergency Caesarean on Saturday the 26th of March 2016 (2 days early), weighing 7lb 3oz and measuring 50cm. So, I was induced on the Friday due to mild pre-eclampsia. Even though it was only mild, the doctors wanted to get my baby out as soon as possible before it got too dangerous. So I went into hospital at 8.00pm on Friday and got the first let of gel put in at 9.00pm. They told me that the second lot of gel would be done at 3.00am then they would break my waters at 8.00am. Well, I didn't even get to the second lot of gel. My waters broke themselves at 1.30am, despite the nurses saying nothing would happen for quite a while.  Despite my waters breaking, I was only 2cm dilated even though the contractions were so strong and close together by this point.  At about 2.00am, I passed out and had had a sudo seizure (possibly due to the pre-eclampsia). Th...

Photo 1- 33 weeks Photo 2- 34 weeks Photo 3- 32 weeks Photo 4- 20 weeks Hello! First of all, so sorry I have been M.I.A (missing in action) over the last few months. A lot has happened. But I'm back.  So in October, I got really sick with the pregnancy as well as grief from losing Dad. It was a very hard time, for Yo as well. I came back to Australia early November without Yo (we are still together) for the rest of the pregnancy. Luckily, he will be late next month in time for the baby to come :) Things are a lot better than they were a few months ago, health wise. I am eating a lot more than I was (I couldn't eat for over a month). I lost 15kg in that time which took me to 70 kilos. Since then I have got back up to 78kg. Obviously a lot of that is baby weight. So, about the baby. It's a girl! We found out at my 20 week scan :) We didn't mind what sex we got, but still feel so blessed to have a little baby girl. Her name is Ruby Elizabeth Chadu. ...

I saw this tag on YouTube and I couldn't resist doing it in blog form. 1) Are you a Daddy's girl? Sometimes I was and sometimes I wasn't. But he used to love it when I delivered parcels with him because even though it was work, it was one of the only times we ever had time just with him and me and could talk about anything and listen to my Ipod and sing together.  2) Is there a face you make when you want something? Honestly, can't remember.  3) Did you and your dad/daughter use to do anything special when you were a child? We grew up on a farm and I always remember him taking us on the farm on the four-wheeler and i still remember that. One memory I have with just him and I, is we used to call ourselves the 'naughty kids'. We used to 'torment; (in a loving and friendly way. I promise) my Mum and sister. And even when I was a teenager, he referred to him and I as the naughty kids.  4) Is there a special song he used to sing to yo...

Yes. I am pregnant! Woohoo! So happy to become a Mummy <3 It's something I have wanted ever since I knew women could have babies. So far it hasn't been the easiest pregnancy with morning sickness and afternoon sickness and all through the day sickness. I spent 3 nights in hospital in my 11th week of pregnancy and was vomiting non-stop and not being able to eat for over a week It was the longest time of my life. But my amazing husband was such a wonderful help for me and so patient <3 But morning sickness is slowly going. Although, not holding my breath that it won't come back. Due Date- 28th March 2016 Baby's size- Size of a lime Other side effects- Emotional and teary outbursts. A lot. lol. These have only just started but i just cry and can't stop. Exhaustion and tiredness. Always tired. No cravings yet.

A lot of times when I upload photos to my facebook, a lot of people comment on how happy I look all the time. This is not meant as a depressing post but please do not assume my life is picture perfect and that I am happy all the time.  I miss my home country. I miss my family. I cry. I argue with my husband (what marriage doesn't have arguments?). I miss my Dad. Of course I do have happy times but this is not all the time. Not a depressing post. Just want to make sure people understand.

Anyone that has ever lost a parent would know how hard it is to say goodbye. That parent was the first human to ever take care of you and put your needs before their own. That was my Father. It is both my parents. But my Father worked his butt off to try and provide for his family. Sometimes that didn't go to his plan. But we never went without.  He always made sure we had everything we needed. Food, water, a house. He made the decision to move our family interstate. At first we didn't like him much for making us move. But we know he made the perfect decision for our family. If we hadn't moved to Queensland, so many things would not have happened. Arriving to the church on the day of his funeral, it was surreal. It hit me hard. People were coming up to me with their puppy dog eyes and it hit me. This is real. This is not a terrible nightmare. This is real.  No matter how sad we were, we wanted ...
