× Nowadays I as I am a mother of a 2 year old, I don't really write a lot.
✓ Nowadays, as I am a mother of a 2-year-old, I don't really write a lot.
The original sentence has a misplaced phrase 'I as' which disrupts the sentence structure. Also, '2 year old' should be hyphenated as '2-year-old' when used as a compound adjective before a noun. The correction improves clarity and grammatical correctness.
× When I write down something, I like to keep a record of, uh, my baby progressing in years and in his.
✓ When I write down something, I like to keep a record of, uh, my baby's progress over the years.
The phrase 'my baby progressing in years and in his' is incomplete and awkward. 'My baby' should be possessive 'my baby's' to correctly modify 'progress'. Also, 'progressing in years and in his' is unclear; 'progress over the years' is a clearer and grammatically correct expression.
× So my writings does the same, umm, it follows different timelines and uh, I express uh, different emotions.
✓ So my writings do the same, umm, they follow different timelines and, uh, I express, uh, different emotions.
The subject 'writings' is plural, so the verb should be 'do' instead of 'does'. Also, the pronoun referring to 'writings' should be plural 'they' instead of singular 'it' to maintain subject-verb agreement.
× Unfortunately, nowadays I don't have any time to keep the Diaries.
✓ Unfortunately, nowadays I don't have any time to keep diaries.
The word 'Diaries' is unnecessarily capitalised and pluralised in a way that suggests a specific set of diaries. Using lowercase 'diaries' without 'the' is more natural and grammatically correct when speaking generally about keeping diaries.
